keep your tubes warm

>>127758726only a waste of time if you aren't having fun.if you're doing that instead of practicing or getting better, then its up to you if you want to keep doing that

What’s the deal with cover bands?They’re not the band… but they’re also not not the band.It’s like musical cosplayyou’re dressed as Aerosmith, but your name is Aero-ish.And people go crazy!“Play Free Bird!”You realize these guys aren’t allowed to play Free Bird… right?They’re basically musical babysitters.They tuck you in with the classics while the real band’s out making new songs you don’t want to hear.And the names oh, the names!“Almost Zeppelin,” “Not Quite Nirvana.”At least be honest!Call yourselves “The Discounts.”
It was 1 a.m. in the Burger King parking lot, neon sign buzzing like a dying firefly. Mountain had dragged out a little amp from the back of his rig, uke slung low on his shoulder. His eyes were red, face wet man was crying heavy, not a sniffle, but full-bodied sobs that shook his chest.Gary Greaser was there too, perched on the hood of his old Chevy, leather jacket shining under the flickering light. He had a cigarette dangling, hands cupped around the flame like it was holy.“Mountain, pal… you sure you’re good to play?” Gary asked, voice somewhere between concern and disbelief.Mountain didn’t answer with words. He just strummed a shaky, off-kilter rendition of “Wonderwall.” The uke buzzed, strings jangling like rusted windchimes. Every chord cracked in half from the tears dripping onto the fretboard.Gary lit another smoke, shaking his head. “You’re killin’ me, kiddo. Cryin’ over a uke in a Burger King lot… this is the saddest set I ever seen.”But Mountain just kept going, voice breaking, half-singing half-sobbing:“And after alllll, you’re my wonderwaaaall…” A group of kids in lowered Civics rolled by, slowed down just long enough to honk and yell “Play Freebird!” Mountain lifted his uke like a weapon and shouted through his tears, “FREEBIRD’S FOR CLOWNS, BUCKO!” before collapsing back into his ballad.Gary clapped, slow and sarcastic. “Encore, champ. You’re a regular Elvis in a puddle of saltwater.”By the end, the Whopper wrappers scattered at his feet looked like little gravestones. The parking lot was empty except for Mountain, Gary, and the buzzing neon crown above them.It wasn’t pretty. It wasn’t tight. But it was a set.And at 1 a.m. outside Burger King, it was legendary.

Jazzmaster is a problematic and racist name for a guitar. jazz was invented by Black americans and master gives slavery connotations.
>>127759050Phill won't let that color his opinions on the guitar. Real stand up guy.

>>127758782I started creating backing tracks for songs that I like. My collection is also up to 40ish songs now and it's impossible to memorize them all. I also keep a tab next to it, so I actually have to "review" a song before playing it.>>127758792I have written and recorded 10 songs in the past year. I don't remember how to play any of them anymore. That made me wonder how actual artists remember their stuff, but I guess they play it almost daily, so it's harder to forget.I also keep tabs of everything I write inside my project files for that reason. There are some sketches and ideas in there where I didn't include tabs and now I don't remember how to play it anymore. Once I had to painfully transcribe my own solo because I didn't write it down and I don't think I transcribed it correctly (I'm still kind of a beginner).

>>127759133>the straws poorfags will grasp at
>>127759050>look it upReminds me of this. How can one guitar be so ugly? I like the attempted Tele shape, the slightly wider nut (fretboard) and thepickup configuration, but everything else is an eyesore for me.
>>127759174remined me of this attempt
>>127759174its a telecaster mixed with that st vincent thing from music mana telesbian if you will
>>127759178This looks pretty good though, I'd change the covers to orange or white as well
>>127759133its not actually aimed at homos and troons, its aimed at the "so wholesome" twittoid crowd that are straight but put those groups on a pedestal. thats a much larger group for Gibson to siphon money from (which will be used to fund based activities). an excellent move in the long term.

I like Bowie because he co-opted fag culture and wasn't even gay
>>127759483
How do I keep my strumming hand moving? I'm focusing more on when I'm strumming rather than keeping a consistent movement
>>127759512you need to strip back whatever you're doing to muted strums or a single note drill. isolate the movement and work on it, don't worry about the other shit until you can stay moving
you could make some easy money turning these shitty kramer strats into EVH frankies using cheap chinese parts.

Best guitar if I want to experiment with different tunings? Baritone? 7 string? Variax?
>>127760779>J90C with charvel coverBased. I love that pickup and wish I had more.
>>127761489Something with a 1 piece maple neck
>>127761489Depends on the tunings. There's some that would require a whole new nut to work properly but you're gay if you use those.
>>127761489Any normal guitar with a hard tail, you can use any goofy tuning you want simply by buying different appropriate string gauges
ohhh nice new fendershttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GtzfWhMbxoI
>>127761592erm but what if i want to dramatically change it and keep string tension + no intonation issues.
>>127761687Then you're out of fucking luck because no guitar in the world lets you go from E standard to drop A simply by turning the pegs
>>127761395really nice playing passes, have fun anon
>>127761615new fendersame as the old fender
>>127761708but technology and shit, how about half that range then
>>127761687ezpz
>>127761739it'll sound a bit jank if you play chords super low but it's a simple solution
>>127761395I adore Warwicks and have a 90s german one, you did well. EMG just came out with new pickups that are the exact size as those on Soundgear basses, so if you gel with the bass and wish for a bit better sound down the line, there are options and its solderless too.

>>127759964How do i even know it's real bone and not "sythetic bone"? Recently bought a Fender and the website just says "bone".
>>127762346I heard you can tell by licking it
>>127762346if you file off a small amount and snort it you should be able to tell the difference
>>127762346look at it from the side and see if you can see the marrow. might have to file a bit off first they usually patch it
hmmm what should I offer??
>>127762546I've seen sythetic ones copying the look of real bone too. Also i don't want to file it just to tell by smell if it's bone or not. Thinking of putting thicker srings on so maybe i have to file it anyways though.

>>127762862why don't they do 99% of the work in Mexico and then put the final touches on them in the US to get around tariffs?
>>127762878they would still need to pay tariffs on the material crossing the border. given, they could valuate that much lower, as unfinished goods, but it's still cheaper to not pay some retarded obese americans to bungle your fungle scrungler
>>127762862I paid $500 for my MIM blacktop strat and $800 for my MIM classic 70s. these current prices are insane
>>127762878Something like 70% of the product has to be produced in the usa or it doesn't count as usa made
the "aging" process is putting the bodies and necks in a freezer

What kind of strap does /gg/ prefer?
If you had to give up all of your guitars and only keep one for the rest of your life, what would your one guitar be? What is the one you’d hang on to/your number 1 guitar?

>>127762953tacky pleather ones I bought off temu
>>127762953Wide dunlop nylon on guitars without neckdive, cheap perris leather on guitars with neckdive.
>>127763029Classic black dunlop d38 was my go-to for last 15 years until I foolishly forgot it at some gig. Moved to leather straps now but I kinda want to get an olive green Dunlop for backup.I also want to like the grommet ones (pic rel) but they would just look dorky on me
>>127762953I still use the same thin plain black leather strap i got with my first electric guitar almost 20 years ago.
>>127763048>forgot it at some gigBummer. I have a routine of releasing the strap locks, holding the strap in my left hand while putting the guitar in its case with my right, folding the strap in half twice, and throwing it in the storage compartment. I've worn straps out but I've yet to lose one.
i play sitting down. if the audience can't handle that, they'll have to stop coming to my shows
>>127761803Only if it's covered in orange peel
>>127763492>being mad that you got two colors for the price of one
>>127763492>aged "fiesta red">actually just pink
>>127763608i always wonder how awful these guitars will look with already "aged" colors in 20 years.
>>127763675My "classic white" has a hint of mint green to it in the right lighting. I dig it personally but the obsession with fake aging new guitars is retarded.

>>127762631Wow. I thought $1200 was steep for the original Vinteras.. Nitro is meme if it’s on modern guitars, there’s my hot take.
>>127764118The Jazzmaster looks the best, simple maple neck with plain maple headstock looks the best with fiesta red.
>>127762953I've been using Minotaur straps for years; they're well made and affordable. I use a wider variant on my neckdive basses.

>>127764227i bought a vintera bass about 6 months ago and it couldn't even handle heavy gauge flatwounds. truss rod was maxed out and relief was still on the high side of just acceptable. they're shitplanks
>>127764465MIM = try before you buy, imo. I've tried a few shitplanks, but I also own 2 excellent MIM basses that easily match the American made ones quality wise (and the 'Murican Fenders are probably QC'd by Mexicans anyway lmao).
>>127764413I think rosewood looks better with unpainted headstock
Without realizing, I ordered 20 E1 strings
>>127764508i agree but really hard to know how stable the neck is going to be in the store unfortunately

>>127764545Thats pau gasol wood
>>127764595fair enough
i want to use C standard tuning. are there strings for that that will work with my nut. my ernie ball 9s feel a little too loose
>>127764619>>127764643even if it was real rosewood it would look better to me unpainted. a real fender would use rosewood, but for some reason they stopped doing block inlays on anything but maple (looks like shit)
>>127764934Alexi Laiho signatures 11-50
>>127764934>ernie ball 9s>c standardOof. 25.5" scale length I'm assuming?
>>127764934You will need at least 12s for that. Maybe less if you just want to play doom, stoner or sludge. Pretty sure you will have to file the nut for those though. Personally i use 14s on a Fender scale for B standard.
