I'm a beginner acoustic guitar player. I got to the point where I can now easily switch between the noob chords Em, C, G etc. I have been practicing on a €50 guitar all this time and I realized how much better a €500 guitar feels. The strings are way easier to press and switch chords between. What acoustic guitar do I get? Anything more than €500 seems a bit too expensive for me, seeing as I'm still a beginner. Also, can I order online or should go to a shop and get one?
>>124386387Whatever Yamaha in our price range, or a Gretsch Jim Dandy.
>>124386387>>124386404They're all kind of the same to me at this point. Most are gonna have some laminate wood for back and sides, but Taylor and Martin have good laminate techniques. They're not the usual particle board, but high pressured layers.

does anyone get depressed when they play guitar?I only play to myself for over a decade now, countless hours and for what?I'm not even in a bandI should have studied guitar in university maybe I would be at least in a bar playing very bad jazz
>>124387616At the very least, guitar alone should be kind of therapeutic and a good waste of time. If it fails at that, I don't know what to tell you.
>>124387616>does anyone get depressed when they play guitar?only if you suck (you)
>>124387616>should have studied guitar in universityKek
>>124387616You should put up one of those “guy looking for band” ads, sure why notMy gf picked up the bass when I took guitar back up so we’ve been jamming, it’s been cool. I played bass too so could teach her some stuff to accompany me
everytime I pick up the guitar it's like new doors are openingeverytime I look at the circle of fifths new things become apparent
>>124386387Seagull (Godin) makes the best budget acoustic guitars imo. High quality tight grained solid cedar and spruce tops, graphtech nut and saddle, can be bought used for around $300 all day long. Also playability comes from the setup, not the quality of materials. The 500 guitar will have a better factory setup. So your 50 euro guitar could play as good as the 500 euro one, its just not gonna sound as good.
>>124389123lol
For me personally it's the JC-120.
>>124389477what's JC stand for... jizz catcher?

>>124390523if you don't mind that dirty people have fondled it

>>124390523Buying a display guitar is one of the most disgusting things you can do. Retards bring their kids and let them reign free touching everything in guitar center. I've seen it multiple times now
>>124390523Depends on the discount. Anything less than 35% off I would pass.
I go to guitar center and play a guitar then I buy it online
>>124391013I've always wanted to play drums at a guitar center but I'm afraid of making noise.
>>124390701The whole story about how jazzmasters were made for jazz and used for surf, spaghetti western, punk and derivative genres instead, but jazz musicians still play hollow bodies could be so much better if we had mass access to internet in the 1960-70s.
>>124383857>that upper fret accessmight aswell just play a classical guitar
>>124390907it's this
>>124386132Fifth fret was buzzy as heck on the treble side. Laminated top yeah. It's a Fender Paramount so about 350-400 buckaroos retail. Paid around 180 with a coupon. Anyway, took it to the shop earlier today and they gave me another one no questions axed. I downtuned the old one to DAbEC to take some stress off the top and it sounded killer. Tuned the new one to standard (GDAE) but I'm not head over heels over the sound. It's a fun lil distraction from regular-ass guitar but be warned they're not easy to play. Even just some phrasing over an opening tuning will assrape your hands unless you're coming from upright bass or something. I think the charango uses nylon/gut strings so I'd assume they would be easier on the hands. Completely different tuning but the vibes are similar enough.Now if you just want something different to blow some steam I'd get a banjitar or ukulele.
>>124386387In the mean time you can switch to a lower tuning to increase playability.I keep my acoustic in C#

>>124391390>>124391770No, the discount isn't good enough.You can get mint, used hollowbodies for way less than that.On the other hand, have you played it? If it is an outstanding example, that you have played and seem to bond with, then yes, that is a good enough discount to move on.Nice guitar, though. Good taste.
>>124391819>You can get mint, used hollowbodies for way less than thatwhich ones and where? I haven't found many options with a tremolo bar for that price
>>124391885That Gretsch, or an Epiphone Wildcat, on Reverb or CL or Ebonk. You just have to be patient and look for them.

>>124391885Trems suck at that price range. Unless you're jonesing one pretty hard, I'd go trapeze/hardtail and get a real bigsby [not "licensed by" shyet] down the line. Vega trems used to be shilled a ton but the consendus nowadays is that they're a meme.
I still haven't made it past 1/4 of Little Wing's intro.
>>124393241It seems so, only ones with a lot of effects play indie slop
I started doing some tech work as a side hustle like 50% of people that bring me their guitars just leave them with me after I've done the workmy workshop has 12 guitars in it that have just been sitting for over 6 monthsits getting really annoying and its taking up space
>>124395058Give them a call and if they don't come, sell them
>>124393955There is really no difference between 'real' bigsby's (IE B3, B5, B7. etc) and 'licensed' ones IE B30, B50, B70, etc The main difference is the 'real' ones are sandcast and the cheaper ones are cast in molds, to the 'real' ones are actually made shittier/have aesthetic defects.
tell me if I'm retarded>record chord progression loop>record lead guitar part while listening to the loop on headphones>the two recordings are not synced up when played togetherhow? don't tell me to play with a metronome
>>124395117>don't tell me to play with a metronomeplay with a metronome
>>124395117Play in time, metronome actually means groovebox, if you play in sync to backing track while monitoring, but then recording is not in sync, see if you can just offset it, there is a lag, daw will hear you after the headphones plugged into an interface.
>>124395058You need to have them sign a document that says if guitars aren't picked up after 6 months they will be disposed of.
>>124386567>Theyre nameless. Should i name them?It's tradition if they're keepers, but it's up to you. They should be given female names, that's the only rule.
>>124395077>bro there's no difference. yeah the chinksby is not even worth being called pot metal but so what? It's just as good>doesn't mention plastic washers nor how the spring tension is way differentThird world hours.
>>124395715>there is a lag, daw will hear you after the headphones plugged into an interfaceohhhh
>>124395077>The main difference is the 'real' ones are sandcast and the cheaper ones are cast in moldsSandcasting molds are made for each pour, while static molds are reused, degrading little by little, until the tolerances are too far off and they throw out the old mold and tool a new one, which is expensive. The 'real' Bigsbys are far better constructed and not as clunky as the import versions. The import versions are also less consistent, because some of them were made after the mold was fresh and some were made near the end of the life of the mold, when shit is not fitting together.I was also told the import versions have plastic washers to compensate for the tolerance variations, but can't verify this.
What would you recommend to a dimwitted retard that only learned songs their first two years of playing guitar? Just start from the beginning and relearn the basics? Essentially all I know is a bunch of different chords.

>>124386387Look at a yamaha fs800 or fg800. Then spend some money to get it setup at a reputable shop. Total will be under $350 for a well playing guitar (setup is why its easy to play). If you want a full solid acoustic, eastman makes a good $600 dollar model. However since your a beginner go spend the difference on lessons and if you are still playing guitar in 2 years save up for a red label or seagull.

>>124393648neat
>>124400261I would consider fret leveling and nut filing as a standard part of a setup. wouldn’t go anywhere that didn’t include this as part of the price. $2000+ is the level (in my experience) where instruments no longer require fret leveling. some brands have good frets around $1500 mark but not many.
does anyone know how the guitar on born under punches was processed? specifically the solo where it sounds almost like a synth
>>124400412>fret levelingWhy? Does it buzz? No? Then you don't need one. We're talking about a guy coming from a $50 doodooplank. I'm sure he can cope with a scratchy 16th fret just fine. But really with an fs/fg800 you won't even have to worry about that.

>>124393896I truly love it. When I got it, it replaced a HOF Reverb and Flashback Delay, and I was so excited to get more modulation options... it has turned out to be even better than I imagined. I love stacking verbs and delays, but the tremolo & viscous vibe are extremely fun.

The orange one is 99 but I'm not sure if my store has it but I'm just going to buy a new bass. Ever since I've gotten hooked on piano I've wanted to get back into bass and looking into the cost of everything beforehand repairing the one I have make the most sense. But I have to wait at least a week in the shops. I really just want to play bass but I'd like another opinion what someone would do in my situation
>>124409433that's odd. I'm not sure about the spacing of that headstock, but I have a load of cheap bases and the first thing I do to everyone is put in some new clover-head tuners. From no-name acoustic chinkplanks to Squiers, they've all fit. Those basses you posted sound great for the money, but if the plan is to mod it at all, might as well just stick to what you have. Since it's a lower-end model, I'd go with Guyker brand machine heads, only $20 for a set on Amazon. Gotoh makes great ones too, but they're $50+, not really worth putting on a cheap bass imo.
>>124406629I'd say it's chimey (in a good way) but I'm an acousticfag and completely retarded when it comes to dialing an amp or setting up a chain. Will try to record a vocaroo later.

>>124409433>>124410011Oh I remember that thread, imo allparts replacement is the better idea, even if you drill out the holes to 9/16", do you really trust those $11 tuners? Also it looks like old tuners have 4 screws holding them, the new kind would not cover those screw holes in the headstock.

>>124404148Surface mount components lose tone and are lower quality. The cheaper Boss SD-1 has all through hole components
Is it true that it's easier to find people to play with if you play bass?
>>124414832I guess there aren’t a lot of bass players; I’ve had no problem finding people to play with. I avoid any advertisement that says “rock only and/or country” because it will likely be very boring with very mediocre musicians. nothing wrong with playing some simple root notes from time to time but i want to grow as a musician. I’m in a 3 piece improv gospel/soul/funk band right now with keys and drums and it has been a blast. I get to improvise pretty much every day
>>124414772umm no. thats a common myth https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yEZ0yzswOt4
>>124414718Yeah, it’s a fucking great guitar. Guy at a folk session I go to casually takes it along every week to what is one of the rougher pubs in my town. Pre-war mahogany guitars aren’t as desirable to collectors as spruce and rosewood or spruce and mahogany, even less so small bodied guitars. A D-28 from 1936 is selling for $175,000, this is probably only worth four or five thousand though. I’d still buy it in a heartbeat if I could though.

>>124415799Ty. I just started using a pick a few years ago when I began with regular guitar. I did play bass before that, but finger plucking
>>124415647is this in B?
>>124415944yessir
>>124415963sweet thanks. I’m working on my ear. I was piddling a little bassline around it
>>124416003Cool, would love to hear it
>>124415647Nothing but respec for the voca posters.
what software do people use to play with virtual pedals?
>>124416099ear rape warning at the end. this was recorded with two tablets, sorry. it was pretty hard to find anything that really fit it because the rhythm and melody was already in the guitar. I felt playing quarters or whole notes just felt too slow. there’s some mistakes in there also but I just wanted to get it posted https://voca.ro/1ANGMe0hN7tf
>>124416564It's punchy, I like it. Thanks
>>124416600thanks I liked the guitar. I was worried I over played
Any amp recommendations under 400? I'm getting tired of the Boss Katana, the mid sounds super synthetic and I only ever use it on the acoustic setting with pedals.
>>124416763Valveking 2 if you like to play metal/hard rock. No need for any distortion pedals its got plenty cooked in.

>>124416776>>124416819I'll try one out next time I see one. I play with a lot of distortion, but what I'm looking for is something that I can run clean that will handle a ds1 and big muff at the same time. Not sure whether it's an issue of too much going on for the amp to handle or me just messing up the settings some how. >>124416882Nice.

A wise man once said"What would Kingfish do?"and now I find myself asking that very same question. Once you answer this question all becomes very clear.
>>124417280Some people like amps that fart. Maybe its not your sound but its the best selling fender amp for a reason.
>>124417306Your butt is fartin
>>124404008nothing wrong with SMT, it's still the same components and the same circuit. t. build my own pedals
>>124417330you're the same components and the same circuit.
>>124417330So have you tested this for yourself? Because the larger components have more tone from my own testing
>>124417303>"What would Kingfish do?"if he was up your ass you'd know
>>124418903No, I wouldn't.
I didn't know Blackstar made a barebones analog solid state amp. Pulled the trigger. Should get here soon. They make them in all kinds of wattages if you're interested.The one thing I miss about my early days is the no frills, plug n play nature that were common in practice amps, before digital came along.
It is often said that fender is the king of bass guitar. But if you pick up one of these you are going to sound exactly like everyone else. I think people only say this because gibson is already the king of guitar so fender shills have to take the leftovers. But the gibson hh vol vol tone tone configuration is so versatile that everyone can sound unique (if you know how to use the pickup selector and knobs) The p always sounds like a p. The jazz bass always sounds like a jazz bass or... a p (which makes the p completely redundant but thats another discussion)Who is the real king of bass guitar?
>>124419465I'm mostly in the Fender camp with guitars but to me the most beautiful bass noise is a T-Bird. I've never owned one myself though..nor do I really play bass.
>>124419604To add, maybe it's all Gibsons. I don't know. Do they have a shorter scale than Fender? The t-bird has a rumble and none of the snappiness of a Fender..but that's where a bass belongs imo.
>>124415062>be jhs>shitty $20 behringer pedals eating your lunch>solution is to start importing cheap low quality chinese junk to save money on builds >now your pedals are literally the same noisy smt trash as behringer>except theirs cost $25 and yours costs $150>then start charging your retarded customers a higher price than you used to charge for the pedals your company used to make in the united states that were substantially higher in quality>now the price is $175 and theirs is still $25>even though both are the exact same thing>tell your retarded customers it's better >you even hold the two different pedals up in a video and show them the physical differences>goyim cattle are literally too stupid to see you're telling them a bald face lie>goy cattle "he held them up so he must be telling the truth!">they're so dumb that they'd post a video of you lying through your teeth because they have no idea what the fuck you're actually telling themlol based jhs fucking NPCs in the ass with a smile on his face
>>124419625For me, I just want a good analog SS (hopefully this >>124419173) and can do just fine with digital multi effects junk. Which I barely use anyhow. I've had some good gear over the years, but if I'm going to be honest, my tastes have never truly evolved since I was a kid - and back then, it was Crates and a Zoom pedal.
>>124419465>Who is the real king of bass guitar?Warwickno other bass has a really unique sound like Warwick, and they also make P-Style basses that dab on Fendershits in terms of sound (such as the Adam Clayton Signature from U2). In fact, all basses try to sound like Fender except for Warwick, Rickenbacker and maybe Dingwall in some regard. All other basses that have a "sound" do it via meme shit like the wah-wah preamp on WAL basses.
>>124419465>which makes the p completely redundantno J-bass sounds ever like a P-bass. The single coil simply cannot create the same sound that the split coil does, it's physically impossible.Best of both worlds is a PJ configuration since the neck pickup on Jazz basses is notoriously shit and nobody really uses it on its own like a P-bass since it sound so much worse, it's there to make the bridge pickup sound less nasal like Jaco did.
>>124419784>no other bass has a really unique sound like Warwick, and they also make P-Style basses that dab on Fendershits in terms of sound (such as the Adam Clayton Signature from U2). In fact, all basses try to sound like Fender except for Warwick, Rickenbacker and maybe Dingwall in some regard.Gibson doesn't sound like Fender just their guitars don't. Warwick is more Fender like just because of the scale.Listen for yourself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4YoXGBoiSg&list=LL&index=4
>>124419604>>124419620that's just a gibson thing. They can rumble but have zero clarity. All their basses sound as if you'd removed the mid and tone know and only left a bass knob that can push but not cut. Their SG-style basses, the grabber and the Thunderbird all sound the same and are really fucking boomy, which can be great if you really only want to rumble and play root notes and never play above the 5th fret, which boomer rock never does. Try to play one of those in any other context and it will be the worst bass you've ever touched, though. They are vastly overpriced for the limited tone they deliver. Imo they're Gibsons worst creation since just about any other bass can achieve as much boomy-ness while also giving you more tonal options on top for less than a couple of grand.
>>124419821>muh scalenigga, warwick, fender and just about any other manufacturer also has short scale shit. And Gibson also has 34" basses. It's all about the woods, electronics and overall configuration.And a Gibson absolutely sounds like a Fender if you were to kill all the treble and only push the bass on any Fender. Gibson basses have just about the least unique sound out of any bass, it's literally cut everything but bass.
>>124419821the video is fucking bullshit, the J-Bass has the tone knob cut, the warwick also isn't flat and I guess all other basses are configurated in some way, too. At least make an actual comparison with flat eq.Also all basses in your video are 34" scale so your argument with the Gibson scale is invalid.
>>124419844>It's all about the woods, electronics and overall configuration.Whatever they're doing, they're better than Ric, my second choice of rumbler. Maybe they have better experience with pickups, don't know. But yeah, I am in the boomer rock camp. And I said earlier not really a bassist myself. Just my 2c as a guitar who wants them to stay in their lane. lol. What more do you need than a ballsy rumble?
>>124419876>What more do you need than a ballsy rumble?If Motley Crue, Kiss, Iron Maiden and all the other mainstream stuff from that era is all you play, you really don't need anything else since you'll never play above the 5th fret.But anything else where you actually might want to touch a fret in the higher register for once and Gibson basses will become your worst enemy.
We've made it to Saturday. The gg schizo is beginning to lose interest. Life is good
>>124419844>It's all about the woodsTrue i have an alder body and a mahogany guitar for this purpose, same electonic configuration (soap bar neck, gold foil in the middle, p90 in the birdge)And these two guitars sound nothing alike !!

Noob question here, but I don't understand how this exercise is in 4/4. If it is 4/4, shouldn't it be four beats (which it has) with one note played per beat? I can play it with the metronome at 60bpm and I count 1-2-3-4 with 1 lining up with each beat, but the 2-3-4 does not make sense to me since I thought 4/4 was 1-2-3-4 with 1-2-3-4 each being played on the beat.
>>124424231The time signature has nothing to do with the number of notes played in a measure or beat. Rather, it describes the number of beats per measure (which you got correct), and the duration of note which gets a single beat, in this case, the bottom numeral four, implying that a quarter note gets one beat. But the notes in the exercise are sixteenth notes, of which there are 4 per quarter note.If you tap your foot for each beat, you would play each group of 4 notes with each tap: the first 2 on the down tap, the second 2 when you raise your foot. And 4 foot taps per measure, 50 per minute (50BPM).

>>124419173I feel you, I play clean all the time these days so I'm more comfortable playing solid state but I fucking hate that everything has to come with built in fx and amp emulations now. Solid states are only fine when they're allowed to have their own sound.

>>1244242311 e and a, 2 e and a, 3 e and a, 4 e and a. Those are 16th notes. there are also sextuplets, octuplets and other shit you’ll very rarely encounter, but quarter notes (which is what you’re thinking of) are very commonly broken up into 8th (1 and 2 and) and 16ths.
