why not just putting that know right on the fucking pickup goddammit
Post the guitars you learned to play on
>>127577232>body binding, no neck bindinghmmm why
>>127577232would do the buttons do?
>>127577320they turn off the guitar to save battery
>>127577260This Ibanez and the BC Rich on the right
>>127577320Just normal Vol/Tone/Tone, no push pull that I know of.
>>127577250huh?

what's the best low profile clip on tuner, one of the ones that hide behind the headstock?
>>127577446>>127577424>>127577388>all started on an acousticMasochists, must have been an absolute bitch with the steel strings, classical was much easier with the wider string spacing.
>>127577553i started on bass so 13s are nothing really. i'm only interested in singer/songwriter and bluegrass so it made sense to just start with a dreadnought and continue going from there
Thanks for all the answers, always.I wrote some sick ass evil riffs
>>127577691i always get a kick out of your questions, so keep posting. rock on brother
>"Hey kid, nice strat. Check out mine."
>>127577745Thanks man!
>>127577865looks like a three year old scribbled on it lol
>>127577865what's wrong with his hand
why do single coil pickups exist when humbuckers exist?
>>127577865Based, Doug has been using that Strat since day one of Built to Spill. How many other guitarists do you know who’ve stuck with their same guitar for the last 30 years?
I bought a new Lizard Queen nano for $30. Its a fun octave distortion/fuzz
>>127577260had to learn on a 3/4 scale guitar as a 6'3" 15 year old
>coil split humbuckers arent the same as single coil pickuos because.... BECAUSE I SAID SO!!
humbucket on a tele at the neck position, yes or no?
lol humbucket
>>127577936hot take but i really like SRVs tone around 1989 and i don't even like fender guitars that much desu. this isn't an invitation to have a meltdown, im just saying they're not my personal preference
>>127577865>wrote his wife's and son's name on his guitarthat's sweet
>>127577865>>127578018I was a bit disappointed when I saw Built to Spill live and Doug played some random black and white strat, always wanted to see BEN in action>captcha: RYTTM
>>127578061idk what those are so i cant meltdown
>>127578043the humbucket, it's to the kazoo what the double bass is to the violin

why amplify a clean tone on an electric guitar? just play an acoustic at that point. electric guitars are for chugging. t. 5 IQ metal goomer

Teles do be bussin though.
>>127578250stradivarius effect. they sound good because talented people play them.
Bought my first (acoustic) guitar. What should I learn in order? I've been practicing the spider exercise and chord shapes from youtube, what else? Can you guys give me a map
>>127578269what are you trying to become? a modern guitarist that knows all his scales and modes but can't write or play songs or a stroomer?
>>127578269In all seriousness I would start by learning songs you like. Keep it simple at first, like the chord changes to Beatles tunes
>>127578364>>127578366Yeah, for starters I'd like to play campfire chords and such. Eventually, maybe some improvisation and solos over chords
>>127578387in my opinion, i would recommend a beginners course ideally one focused on learning songs. i know that sounds incredibly obvious in text, but not all courses are designed that way. if you want my real real opinion i would recommend bluegrass because it is specifically targeted towards building speed with chord changes, walking and alternating bass lines, and injecting melodic leads during vocal breaks. it seems like a no brainer for the unaccompanied player. that or a finger style course. flatpicking is cool but you can do so much more with fingerstyle
Any metal heads here? Favorite songs to play on the 7 string?
>>127578442Thanks! I'll look them up on youtube or /t/Is there a point to warming up? I got recommended that I should do a spider exercise every time before I start playing for real or a guy on youtube said 1434 1424 to improve ring and middle finger independenceFingerstyle as in plucking with just the fingers without a pick right? I do intend to do that but personally, hybrid picking looks cooler to me (EAD with a pick, GBE with your middle, ring and pinky)
>>127578510highly recommend warming up even at an advanced level, though as you progress the time it takes to warm up gets shorter. warming up is a good time to take things you already know and slow them down and hyper focus on cleaning up your technique and getting more economical motion. i worked on my anchoring technique today for my warmup
Flipped the control plate, burned a small hole in my wife’s tablecloth with the soldering iron but I hid it
>>127578666small sacrifice
i should get an iceman
For someone wanting an amp that will help them achieve Hybrid Theory/Meteora tones, but doesn’t quite have the money for a mesa boogie, what amp should they go for?Fender 30r maybe?
>>127578668Tablecloths are dumb anyway >>127578698There’s an old Japanese one from the late 70s/early 80s locally for $900 that I’m tempted by because they’re a cool humbucker guitar but idk, they don’t look the part for the stuff I like to play >>127578706Boss Katana best budget amp for everything
>>127578706Boss IR-2Used for $150
>burnt my picking hand's index finger >try to put pick between my thumb and middle finger to play while it heals>play like I've never played a guitar in my life
well /gg/?
>>127578793All of them
are you a mode virgin or a natural shred chad?
I’m baaack. Was on vacation the past ten days riding motorcycles and shooting guns in the woods. I’m doing it, if I fuck it up I bought a couple extra water slide Fender/JM stickers so I can just clear coat it if the colors don’t match closely enough.
>>127578826idk what a mode is
>>127578828Good luck nucka
>>127578788get a thumb pick
>>127578175He's inauthentic and npcs eat that shit up.
>>127578788I’m the opposite, I have bad picking technique because I pick with the pick between my thumb and middle and it feels weird when I use my index.

>>127578855Good to be back, my Jap Stang and Japuar were the two guitars I was itching to get back to the most. All I have up north is an old CV Jag, it’s always more decent than I remember, but doesn’t hold a candle to a proper Fender.
>>127578858Practice, that’s not terribly fast.
>>127578899I've been practicing for 17 years
>>127578858idk https://youtu.be/P1c9B2GnTj0
>>127578903Obviously not enough.
>>127578916
https://youtu.be/KEsSiHtv3QIhow do I get to the point to be able to play like this AND sing at the same time?
why do amps have a dedicated ground screw? why not just use a plug's grounding peg?
woah haha what's with all the questions today? /gg/ is a rockin... party on dudes
>plays a tele once
>>127578730I want a tube amp though.>>127578706Thanks I’ll look into it now anon.
>>127579019Shame, Women was so cool and then this dude had to do this. Chris dying sucked. Viet Cong (refuse to use their new name) is cool but Women was something special.
>>127576796I need him to explain this photo
>drummer told us he smokes crack
as long as he beats the skins like his family
>>127578858Pick a chord progression and play them as clean and fast as you can. I’m partial to E/Am/Dm, I’ll play those shapes up on the first three frets as a warm up/exercise.

GC mailed me a broken guitar.
I had another question btw, I really like my little 80’s mij Squier strat. Its pickups are kinda hot.That being said- I want to make my tone like HT/Meteora Linkin Park.Will I have to go dual split humbuckers, or can I achieve it with the strat?
>>127579409oops forgot image
>>127579426It's much worse than that.
>>127579422pretty sure they played PRS through mesa amps on those albums

>>127577260I got one just like this when I was 12 on Christmas
>>127579440Thanks anon. I did a little research, and apparently PRS guitars have a scale length of 25” and Strats are 25.5”So Essentially I don’t think my strat would cut it if I’m going for that sound. Also, they used humbuckers.However, in Minutes to Midnight, they used Strats (not exclusively, but extensively).
>>127579643None of that matters, especially with a $100 EQ pedal.
>>127579643you should be able to get close with some virtual amps and your strat set to the right pickup
>>127579643Scale length matters for playing feel and bends and whatnot, they aren't gonna drastically affect the tone
>>127579727Oh alright, sick! Thanks anon; however I think I’m gonna go for actual gear.I don’t know if this plays any part in my favor, but like I said, my pickups are a little hot.>>127579698What does an EQ pedal do?
>>127577232Building my first pedal board, reckon I need a tremolo or nah?
>>127579808Graphic EQs adjust multiple frequency bands. You slide slider up/down, that frequency goes up/down. Nobody knows how parametrics work but the end result is similar.

>>127579807Oh, sweet. So is that basically the only thing that scale length affects?
>>127580213You sound like a huge fag but I guess that's par here
>>127580222Truth of the matter is that nothing is the same, even you, from moment to moment, always changing, always different.

So im thinking of getting an electric guitar, I tried to learn acoustic for a few weeks in the past when I was a teenager but gave up because the strings made my fingertips numb and sore. What's a good cheap guitar to get? Im also planning on getting some amp to mainly practice through headphones because I dont want to be loud to my neighbors and family Please redpill me
>>127580306
>>127580306If anything it's impressive how clean that crack is, it's like the factory specifically made it to crack that way
>>127580328im proud to see my gifs being saved by other anons
>>127580332its not intendedthey just break because they make them that way
>>127580323When you don't even know what you like just get a classic vibe strat, if you want something portable get the fender headphone amp, otherwise get a katana mini
>>127580336he'll yeah they're good
>>127580319troglys guitars?
>>127580393o thanjkas
I forgot how glorious a simple Fender guitar+Fender amp on the edge of breakup is. Fender+Marshall is classic, but lets be honest, that's probably Gibson's bread and butter even more.>>127580283I'd like one, but being Japan, it's basswood.
>>127580399yeah but it's older honorable basswood
>>127578793>How many guitars does a man need?>>127578814>All of them/ /gg/
>>127580369Thanks, are there any brands which have thinner than average fretboards / necks? My hands are pretty small so I want to be able to reach the strings with all my fingers. Also will playing it through headphones be audible to people through the walls? Like do the raw strings sound like acoustic guitars at all?
>>127580393my boy is tism'd out and possibly touched by the angels but he is chaotic good and i like that
>>127580422Ibanez or other shredder brands tend to have thinner necks than vintage stuff, but you have to go to a store and try them out to be sure, electric guitar necks are already very small in generalElectric guitars unplugged are maybe a fifth as loud as acoustic, shouldn't be a problem as long as your walls aren't paper thin
>>127580419>all PRSI'll pass
>>127580393
What is the ultimate, pinnacle guitar buying experience?
>>127580465wat. having the thing is the experience, playing it
>>127580465Buying from an obvious methhead in a parking lot while occasionally looking behind to see if you get jumped
>>127580465Buying experience?Probably just some hippy boomer's small shop (or an old country/bluegrass shop if you're going acoustic), which barely exist now. Worst is the stores packed with aging metalheads and shredders who all got a stick up their ass.
How do you get muscle memory for every possible fret and string?
>>127580487OK, metalheads outside the store might be better. Just not inside. You know he's probably some desperate methhead and will give a good deal.
>>127580323I would recommend listening to no talking demos and take note of the pickups and amp used. Or just pick up a Tele and see if it's for you.
>>127580422>are there any brands which have thinner than average fretboards / necks?That varies from guitar to guitar. I have a 1960's ES-335 12-string (an amazing instrument), and the neck is almost as small as a mandolin's (early LP's were often this way)! Yet my '76 Explorer, only a few years older from the very same factory, has a neck that quite seriously feels like a baseball bat. Ibanez guitars are often cited as having skinny necks, but the JEM model necks are huge because Steve has big hands.Also remember the width of the fretboard and the depth of the neck are two independent measures. PRS used to combine both in what they called their "wide-thin" neck profile.So the only ways to know for sure are 1) play the guitar in question, or 2) get the exact dimensions of the neck.p.s. Don't be afraid to use a guitar with a neck that's a little outside your initial preference if the instrument itself makes you want to play. Wanting to play is the magic that makes everything else better.

>>12758071648 months is pretty dope desu.

>>127580465>What is the ultimate, pinnacle guitar buying experience?Buying an incredible instrument directly from the inspired artisan who made it for you.
>>127580760If you're set on a D-28, don't settle for anything else. You'll just keep thinking about it and get it anyways one day. That said, Taylors aren't bad, but they're not that big into dreads.
>>127580765>>127580804Different luthiers same hivemind
>>127580809i'm set on the guitar, i guess ill just wait until the next time they run a promotion on it i guess. i'm not ready for it atm
Is it true that for you to actually play a tube amp right, you have to crank it up high?What if I want tube amp sounds but don’t want to blow my windows out?
>only occasionally play acoustic, but really do need them for those occasions being a recording guy>expensive ones feel like a waste because I only play them occasionally>cheap ones are absolute asstis a pickle
>>127580833attenuator
>>127580833Yeah, but some amps have good preamps for quieter gain at home levels. Oldschool designs without master volumes like vintage Fenders and Marshalls made cranking a necessity. But you can get great low volume tones out of modern Marshalls and Mesas and EVH. The Fender Super-Sonic I just got might have the most kickass gain channel I've played with, at least in an amp this size. It can get sort of 90-ish high gain, but turning Gain 1 low and Gain 2 off sounds like a cranked Fender crunch.
>>12758083036 mos is still kind of dope. lolJust add some cheap beans and rice to your monthly diet.
>>127580451>>127580520>>127580551Should I be getting humbuckers over single coil if I plan on learning rock / metal style music? Strat vs Gibson??
>>127580994Yes, but single coils are better.Make sense of that however you want.
"Magnetic Window"thanks YngwieThis must be why PRS's sound sterile.
>>127580994Bridge humbucker neck single is the best of both
I bought a used MXR CAE boost/overdrive pedal designed by Bob Bradshaw. The clean gain boost is awesome, but the OD side sounds shitty with a fizzy sizzle decay. Im gonna return the pedal :-/
>>127579426Shoulda bought in person man>>127579514Do we hate gibson here?
>>127581067Sometimes overdrives sound like shit on some amps, and great on others.
>>127580833>Is it true that for you to actually play a tube amp right, you have to crank it up high?Sort of.There's the way a tube preamp responds to the dynamics of the playing. Then there's the way the power amp stage responds to driving the speaker load. Finally, there's the way the guitar responds to being vibrated by the sound from the amp.All of these are different, and can be modulated separately and combined in different ways. So it's definitely possible to get some tube feel simply going through a tube pre (or even more extremely, DI through a tube pre plug-in - Satch's "Elephants of Mars" was done this way).But because of that whole feedback loop of guitar->pre->power->guitar the volume and timbral dynamics of playing a tube amp loud in a room really can't be topped.
>>127581084>Do we hate gibson here?I like Gibson, but not enough to buy one. Or not any new ones. I had an SG long ago though.
>>127581089I really do think the OD side is meant to boost an already dirty amp. I tried it on a crunchy amp and it added nice sustain. It just sounds bad as a stand alone OD into a clean amp.
>>127581084Nah we like Gibsons, we just like poking fun at em sometimes.
>>127577260got this for Christmas and learned on it for around 8 months before upgrading
>>127580918you aren't kidding. i'd even settle for 24 months. i just don't feel like im good enough to deserve it atm.
>>127581167Fair enough.Although I'd tell you that a nice playing guitar will help in you in getting "good enough" faster. It won't get in your way at least.https://youtu.be/BvwRZCWGah0?t=297
>>127581084i love gibsons, i love american businesses in the midwest. most of their guitars look great but their quality is middling at times. their acoustic division in bozeman mogs tennessee in quality but im not interested in paying $300-500 more just to have an pickup i dont want and wont use in an acoustic. their mandolins are pretty much as good as gets outside of boutique builders. they could be doing a lot better with their basses; aesthetically they are great but their pickup choices and locations suck. i do admire their unwavering commitment to using nitro tho
don't believe those bots we hate gibson in here
>>127580833i just play my tube map through my PC and blow my eardrums instead of annoy my neighbours
>>127581205damn you that's a compelling argument.
>>127580852>attenuatorWhat is this?>>127580882>>127581093So in short- modern amps don’t really need to be cranked way up to sound good, but cranking them up does contribute to their iconic sound?So if I’m not going to rattle my windows, will there still be benefits to getting a tube over a solid state?
>like the Champ II 50 but it's kinda small>Champ II 100 seems like a better deal>it's made in China (the 50 was Thailand)What to do...
>>127581279Attenuators act as a master volume for your tube amp, so you get breakup at tolerable volumes. A solid state is going to already have a master volume so that's less things to buy and move around.
>>127577260>>127581612I, too, learned on a black strat copy (but Applause by Ovation.. not Cort).
Oh nooooo, my guitar sounds just like a Death grips song. Chorus and ring mod is very important :-o
does the LP and SG have different pickups?
>>127581675yes
>>127581632>A solid state is going to already have a master volume so that's less things to buy and move aroundYeah, but still- don’t you just get a general overall different sound with tubes as opposed to SS amps?
>>127581652Do you still play/like Strats?I learned on a Cort Panther and hate Strats now.
>>127578269Spider exercises are bs. Scales do the same thing and teach music at the same time>>127578366>I would start by learning songs you likeBest advice possible
>>127581681just says theyre underwound (i guess brighter)as opposed to the burstbuckers on the LP, both models have the uncovered pickups. Should i just get a tele?
>>127581726Do you have any guitars or amps right now?
no i don't i only have a friendhttps://voca.ro/1eFV5cQTzfW3
>>127581726Ideally you try out a few models at a physical store and see what you like, but you really can't go wrong with a tele imo
>>127581755Just the 2019 LP classic and Marshall JCM2000 DSL, just been playing Nu-Metal for 3 years but the clean SG sound sounds so good
>>127581771I would say Tele with a 4-way switch then.
>>127581682Moreso a different feel than a different sound. The sound is dependent on many factors and lots of if not most solid states are emulating tube sounds.
>>127581784yeah, they're pretty versatile and comfy, They can produce some nice bright and deep low tones, so weird.kinda trying to get into a more 80's synth pop sound too. so maybe something with an F-hole?
>>127581279>So in short- modern amps don’t really need to be cranked way up to sound good, but cranking them up does contribute to their iconic sound?Yep, you got it. It's not bad vs good, it's good vs better.>So if I’m not going to rattle my windows, will there still be benefits to getting a tube over a solid state?The most, most, MOST important thing about any music gear is:GET WHATEVER MAKES YOU HAPPY AND WANT TO PLAY.If the sound of a tube thing does it for you, get that. If the convenience of an amp modeling plug-in running on your phone does it for you, get that. What matters is that you play, and you enjoy yourself doing it. That's ALL that matters.So don't let subtleties - which can definitely matter - get in the way of you PLAYING. Try something. If it works, keep it. If it doesn't, try something else. Don't let things not being moment-by-moment perfect make you too miserable or stop you (I used to give Eric Johnson no end of grief about that one). We all have a limited amount of time here on Earth. What matters is that you let the music that wants to use you as a conduit to this world come through you.And that can only happen if no matter what you PLAY.Good luck, have fun, and I hope you make lots of music."Your talents are God's gift to you. What you do with them is your gift to God."
>>127581812trvth nvke, always play and keep trying things (not the same as keep buying things)
>>127581812>Your talents are God's gift to you. What you do with them is your gift to God.Amen; I couldn’t have said it better myself- the parable from Matthew 25 immediately came to mind.I know it’s probably no big deal, but your words truly did mean a lot to me. I’m going to actually screencap it, cause that’s some solid and uplifting advice. Time is something we truly don’t get back. Thanks man, and God bless.
>>127581279Ditto what the guy said with whatever makes you happy. I started with a cheapo solid state then added a multi fx unit. IME though, getting a small tube amp did make me reconsider my playing technique (Laney Cub 12) and might have improved it. Most tube amps I've tried since are more touch sensitive than just playing modellers/pedals through solid states which tend to be more flattering and compressed (which tube amps can be too depending on the preamp). Just don't get one that has too much volume for your use case.

wow is creating lyrics to a melody harder than writing the actual music?
A couple weeks ago I bought an 80’s MIJ Squire e series from a friend.Said hed give me a good price because we’re friends.>$500>saw the exact same guitar from guitar center for $599I mean I don’t think it was a *bad* price but.. d- did he lie?
>>127582274sounds like he lost $100
haha my humbucker fell off its spring and screw
>>127582386wow not fun, basically only have 7mm of adjustment until it falls off. Then have to loosen all strings to prop the humbucker up high enough to get the spring to sit on top of the pickup bracket and enough for the screw to slot in the middle of the spring and through the hole in the bracket
This is why the strat with all the electronics attached to the pickguard is the superior design

>>127582274Who knows how much he bought it for. And for something that's vintage its always harder to say what a good price is. I've sold a pocket watch to a friend for 60 that I bought for 50 at a flea market, and that was a good price nonetheless (he suggested it!) because it was a rare model in pretty much new unused condition.

I am surprisingly excited that I wrote some riffs and that I am decided to turn them into a song. I wasn't expecting it. Why couldn't I be this loose when younger? It may sound like something else, it may remind of something else, but to me it sounds like my song. All my life I was waiting to start from a scale and figure out chords and such and because I was lacking theory I would bog my efforts. Or think "damn, this sounds too much like such and such". But who the fuck cares? Who am I writing for? And who WASN'T writing like someone else? I am going to make MY MUSIC. I am going to play MY rock, MY heavy metal. You gotta start somewhere, right?

Newbie acoustic here, how to memorise the fretboard fast?
>>127583389https://youtu.be/Z6QdoUc8v5E?t=333Exercise 3. I think if you do this daily, mainly focusing on the natural notes (A, B, C, D, E, F, G), it should become second nature in very little time. Maybe also mix up the order of strings once you have that down.

Its the Rosewood fingerboard for me. Really does it
>>127583389See the dots or inlays? They occur at 3,5,7,9 &12th frets. See the side of your neck? There are little dots there too that match the inlays. These are reference markers for the following phrases always from 6th string to 1st string:Open Strings & 12th Fret: Eat A Darn Good Breakfast Everyday3rd: Go Cook Fish And(#) Don't Gag (just remember the A is a sharp).5th: All Donkeys Go Crazy Every April (they like to fuck since it's Spring).7th: Be Excellent And Don't Flick (sharp) Boogars. (flicking boogars is bad, especially sharp ones)9th: No phrase but sound it out phonetically: Cee sharp Eff sharp BEGsharp Cee sharp10th: Dinosaurs Got Cold Fast And Died (which is kinda what happened after the asteroid strike).12th Fret: See the open string phrase at #1You can then infer sharps or flats depending on if you're going up the neck (sharp) or down the neck (flat).This is by far the easiest way to learn the fretboard. Also, strings are just alphabetical up the neck.
>>127584052Forgot to mention at the 10th fret there is no dot. But a nice phrase fits here. Since the 9th fret dot has an awkward phonetical phrase, this one makes up for that. 12fret has two dots and all phrases you already know repeat up the neck after this point.Alphabetical reference means: A B C D E F G, then repeat again and again A B C D E F G. You just need to know where in the alphabet to start from...easy.
>he think he'll break into the music industry in 2025 if he doesn't have family connections
>>127584093Last thing to mention. There is no space for sharps or flats between B and C as well as E and F. So if you can visualize this, BC and EF are stuck together like Siamese twins joined at the hip. Everything else (every other letter) in the musical alphabet gets a flat or a sharp. But never BC or EF. For your purposes this will hold true however there some exceptions in studying real music theory...but until then don't worry about that. String 5 is completely alphabetical since it is the A string and starts on the note A. Memorizing the A string is therefore the easiest. Strings 6 and 1 happen to be the next easiest since they occur twice on the neck. They just start at E. Next note up is F on both of them because there is no space between E and F remember...that's why I pointed it out to you.

I dont remember how I memorized the bass fretboard. I dont know the position of every note but if someone tells me to find a note I can.
>>127585033I mean the fifth fret is basically free.Same goes for at least 2 frets in either direction since anyone can easily "calculate" the note fast enough based on their knowledge of the fifth fret. So that is learned fasted as well.past 11th fret doesn't matter.Not much left to do after that.

A Kemper profile very accurately replicates a signal chain "as is". This gives a result almost indistinguishable from the real thing at the same settings.However changing the settings on the Kemper profile becomes just an approximation and loses accuracy the further you move from the settings you profiled.Kemper profiling an amp at 6 gain will sound different from the amp at 3 if you turn the Profile gain down to 3 as well.Is this also the case for modern modeling amps and pedals like the hx stomp or the hotone ampero? How do those implement their amp models?
>>127578027How tall are you now and what do you play today? Baritone?
Pretty much profiling modelers across the board. The ai captures aren't moving the amp knobs around and unfucking the amp in every possible configuration the musician can dial in. The amps and their controls are fully interactive. For example, the treble moves the mid notch around on a fender and all the derivative eqs. Presence effects the eq and some character of the clipping of the power amp. The pre gain is early clipping but that signal strength effects how the power amp distorts. Basically, guitar amps mess up the signal in a dozen different ways and your software is only capturing what the amp is doing at one setting. idk if they'll deepen the thoroughness of the captures down the road.
>>127578027Play a mustang then
>>127585744Yeah I hate mnemonics too. It's just another step between one and the knowledge one wants to have. I want the bare metal assurance of internalized knowledge by rote.
>>127577388thats the best acoustic ive seen. a total shred machine. I alwas thought warlocks were for spergs. but theyre growing on me espcially with a Kahler trem. nice hello kitty squier
Been quite fond of V13(b9) Imaj7 cadence lately
>>127577865nice laser whatever the fuck theyre called. i just added a killswitch on pic rel and i want to add an out of phase switch
>>127586422Wtf is that brigde
>>127586455its a Kahler Tremolo. the flyer one. i wanted a floyd and was going to learn to add one via routing. but then i saw a KDH video on the Kahler trems (hadn't heard of it before) and found out it just like a floyd rose where u can pull up and down on the whammy bar for those dime squeals. and it easier to install than a floyd rose. they even sell a routing template so you can easily locate it after measuring your guitar and fining the true center. it was easy to install. it does what a floyd does and its easier to change the strings no allen needed to take a small cube out. So in some senses its better than a floyd but i think my floyd rose guitar has better sustain. i also dont have the latest best Kahler trem.
I just scraped my whole fretboard with a knife to get rid of the gunk build up. I'm not sure if I cleaned it thoroughly or just scratched it thoroughly. It does look better I think, though
>>127586528post it
>>127586422String alignment?
>>127586572
>>127586685Oil it with lemon oil.
>>127586685looks pretty clean, I'd oil it like other anon said
>>127586725I don't have any.I think some of the gunk got into the tiny holes in the wood, that's what the white dots are. Would it help with that?It's definitely cleaner, though. It looked something like picrel before.
>>127586767The recommended way to clean unfinished (rosewood, ebony and similar) fingerboards is:naphtha (lighter fluid) and a lint free cloth or 0000 steel woolThe steel wool will also polish your frets a bit.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CR9_kwuB1I8Obviously, don't try this on maple.
>>127586904>Obviously, don't try this on mapleWhy is it obvious? Genuine question
>>127579144It’s just a left hand exercise for changing shapes quickly
>>127586937Maple is finished, you don’t want to scracth it up. Maple also needs to be finished or else it gets nastier than rosewood does.
Anyone tried out Guitar Institutes classic progression books?
>>127586937I guess it's not that obvious. Because it's a lighter-colored wood, maple is finished (coated) and you'll scratch the finish off, then it'll look dingy, like the pic as it picks up skin oil & dirt. Fender used to use lacquer on his maple boards in the 1950s. Being soft, lacquer wore off and the result would be like the pic. Legend has it when he saw that on some performer's guitar on early TV, he thought it would ruin his brand, so he used harder finishes, today polyurethane, which won't wear off unless you deliberately sand it. Some performers, Springsteen for one, use vintage guitars that have this look because they came from the lacquer era, they're so old. Others do it deliberately, but the point is that it's evocative of the time when they used lacquer on maple and so the patina develops. None of this is a concern for dark woods, so makers don't put a finish on them, hence the need to oil those occasionally.
>>127586640you can adjust it to how you want no issues with that. i still have to adjust it a bit more but theres no issue atm. i wish there was more info on these old kahlers but i might order the X trem sometime.
>>127586412Those are all my dad’s guitars, but in my early 20s he bought me one of those same Ibanez acoustics so we can each have one. They’re neat little guitars, just cheap Korean Ibanez but it feels like an electric. He bought his in the mid 1990s and I grew up playing it when I started to learn to play guitar around 2003ish. Ibanez ATL10, there’s a red one of Reverb right now for less than $500 but I’ve seen these same black ones for as little as $250 when they pop up.

I've been using my dads old electric guitar to play but I think I want something to call my own.I haven't been playing for too long (about 6 months) but is it dumb to want to buy a really nice guitar at this point?
>>127580842if you don't want to cough up a lot, a used seagull can take you a looong way for about 400 bux
it’s just rock ‘n’ roll
>>127587707Yes, kind of. Who knows how much longer you’re going to stick with it, so why bother spending big money on something at ends up being a passing phase? Define “really nice guitar”, how much are you looking to spend?
>>127587707No, just get a Squier or Epiphone. Learn to set it up well and they're good guitars
>>127587707Get a used MIM for like 500-600, holds value better than a Squier if you do sell it one day.
>>127587707define 'really nice' and how old are you at this point? At 24, I bought a '85 MIJ Fender Strat for about 360 bucks (with shipping) secondhand out of Japan, and totally replacing and upgrading the electronics with a local guitar tech only set me back another 200 with a setup.If I bought a MIJ Strat in the 50-60k yen range at the time, I could have skipped needing to fix the electronics and save myself the headache. So if you have the patience to navigate shitty website UIs I would look into importing one if you need to scratch that itch.

>>127588214kek
>>127588158If you’re positive you’re going to stick with guitar, go for it. If you’re set on G&L I’d suggest buying used off of Reverb rather than new, G&L doesn’t hold its value as well as the big name brands so you can get a used one for a decent amount off of new. G&Ls are great guitars. If you buy one new and end up not sticking with guitar you’re going to take a hit selling, but if you buy used and end up selling you’re not going to loose much.
