I wanna play epic black metal riffs. Should just work my way up to playing faster or just play fast and then adjust being on time? Also I feel like it's odd you don't hear a lot of guitarists do tremolo picking outside of metal and Italian folk music.

Are you satisfied with the Twin Reverb, /gg/?
>>127951382It was good then but it's really not that good an amp now. Carried by the Fender name.
Jazzmaster race checking in. I had a dream the other night that I was playing this guitar on stage and the paint on the headstock started melting and slid off like a loose sheet of ice on a windshield. Downright Freudian stuff.
Was confused for weeks about the notes of the 7th chord and why it uses the flat 7 and not the major 7, turns out scotty does explain in. Just way after I've already found out the answerhttps://youtu.be/96oxNPqm5Gs?t=1189
CAGED is ok for learning chords but I would avoid it for scales, especially if you want to play fast. Stick to 3 nps. You won’t find shredders using CAGED for much, apart from some fretboard visualization and basic triads.
>>127948927You can use MIDI over USB-C, right? I'm wondering if there's any latency when switching presets that way.
>>127949614If you’re a neet or a part time hobbyist maybe.
This but black pick guard
>>127951768Gearheads never have any skill, just a collection
>>127951731I somewhat disagree. You can shred CAGED scales pretty fast too, it's just they muck up the consistency if you're trying to play a sequence through a scale, so 3nps is better suited for those situations.
>>127951612dominant 7th chord, maj7, min7 simple as
>>127951777This is literally my kit les paul.
>>127951871Cope. I play exponentially more now that my stable of guitars has quadrupled. Having lots of nice guitars makes you want to play them all as much as possible.
>>127951884My understand was that in every major chord, you pick off notes from the major scale. Turns out you do do that, but with the mixolydian scale actuallyAnd if the scale isn't specified minor, it's major
>>127949614>squier bass>boss katanaI have a question. Is amp like katana able to handle bass guitar? Doesn't it fuck up the circuits or the speaker is some way, since it's not made for such low frequencies?
>>127951921That sounds like a you problem frankly. I had a squier jazzmaster for the longest time which got me real, real far. If you need a collection of 10k customs to motivate you to practice, well, it's your fucking money. But don't extrapolate your tendencies of bad financial decisions on anyone else. Some of us like music by itself and not objects to make that music
>>127952001If you crank it yeah but if you’re just using it for practice and playing at lower volume it should be fine. If it’s for gigging just get a bass amp, they’re fairly reasonable price wise
So you guys like guitar, huh?
>>127952001Just get a scarlett 2i2 and a pair of headphones, it's 2025. You don't need an amp
>>127952050mildly
how the FUCK do you reliably hit the right strings? i miss with both my hands every time. both fretting and strumming

are you supposed to wrap your guitar in a blanket to keep it warm
>>127951989download The Advancing Guitarist by Mick Goodrickhe has one page for Major scale modes (and chords), one for Melodic Minor modes and one for Harmonic Minor modes. it's very simple,all else in that book is hocus pocus

>>127952369yes and kiss it and maybe put your peenus inside of its body if it likes you
>>127952473it's a solid body, and I don't the luthier to question what all that crust is around the audio output
>>127952389The triad section is fantastic. Learn your triads all over the next!
>>127948850>weren't rick basses like thissomewhat similar in that they have something going over the strings, yes, but it's only part of the magnet (see pic related). there isn't a whole other pickup up top like in my concept.I find it hard to believe nobody had this idea before me. sure the whole contraption would get in the way, but I'd expect to find at least some old forum post discussing something of the sort. maybe info that someone already tried it in the 60s or 70s and deemed it pointless. perhaps it's that current day search engines just suck.If I could play guitar I'd order a cheap Harley-Benton or Squier, some wire and a soldering iron, 3d print a pickup holder and try to put the idea into practice straight away, but as I got my first guitar literally this week there's no point in doing it yet. it'd be like coming up with and wanting to test a new kind of tyre while you can't even drive a car.
>>127952609crap, meant to reply to >>127946780
>>127952568you cant hide whats inside>>127952609maybe you could recess the pickup inside the body so it doesnt get in the way now that i think about it i think old lap steel guitars had a pickup like what youre describing, lollar pickups make one for lap steel guitars called “string through steel” pickup thats basically exactly what youre describing
>>127952642pic related, its a lap steel pickup
> The S6 (S for Split Coil) is a humbucking split coil pickup that utilizes a magnetic yoke arrangement, as used on multiple classic string through pickups. The magnets connect to upper and lower steel plates creating a uniform magnetic field in the string zone, which allows for free string movement since there is no net magnetic force on the strings.exactly what youre describing
>>127951871poorfag cope. your gear never leaves the house and you've never so much as jammed with a drummer
I feel fantastic. Hey hey hey hey.
>>127952019Buddy, I don’t practice anymore, I’ve been playing for 22 years. I’ve been in successful bands, played large festivals, I play for fun and leisure, I have most if not all the skill and technique needed to make the music I want to make. Nobody is judging you for being poor and playing budget instruments, I’m judging you for asking why anyone would want more than a budget instrument. It’s a stupid question and it makes you look stupid and poor.
>>127950635If they didn't have those gay-ass, tiny dots it wouldn't be as bad. That's what does it.
I wish the jag vintera had block inlays
>>127952654>>127952662>>127952688it's interesting, and the function description of "sounds clear just like a single coil while being humbucking" sounds like just about like the most ideal possible outcome. but from what I understand that there above the string is a steel plate, not another coil, and they achieve the humbucking by splitting the pickup into smaller 3-string coils one of which is reverse wound to cancel out the 60 cycle hum when both are connected. a very elegant solution, I'm guessing those similarly split (but otherwise conventional looking, no plate ontop) pickups I've seen on basses serve a similar purpose. but from that means it's still different. for reference, here's my highly professional sketch again. literally 2 single coils facing each other, the top one being a repurposed middle pickup (which from my understanding tend to be wound in reverse) for ease of attempting at home. I'm not saying that it necessarily is a good idea, just a silly "what if" I'm surprised I cannot find mentioned at any point.
>>127951546i had a dream i went to a show of a chick band i like and the bass player had to leave the show early because she got pregnant on stage while playing
>>127948850so i have 2 strats and am looking to get my first Gibson. is it worth? gonna find a cheap Les Paul or SG studio. not ashamed to admit I mostly want one because of Duane Allman.
>>127952873thismy personal opinion is expensive guitars shouldn’t have dot inlays on the fretboard, theyre a beginner instrument thing side dots? yes front dots? no
>>127952331i borrowed it from my grandpa back in May
>>127952923you can get an sg standard for like 900 bucks id get one of them
yeah keep using your scales and chord shapes for soloing
>>127952975and your technique?
Does anyone have an Orange O Tone? I'm thinking about getting one.
>>127952987
>>127953001no but i had a crush pro combo about a 10 years ago and it was really cool
>>127952946any reason besides just liking the SG better?I'm torn. I love the SGs but I want the heritage cherry which seems to be the most expensive colorway
>>127953035>this dude uses someones else's ear for his "amazing talent"
Is the $99 Ableton worth it, or would I be better off finding a cracked standard version?
>>127953057i think they look really good, are super light and are a bargain when put up against what a Les Paul of similar price would fetch you
>>127953108I agree that they are sexy guitars. That's p much exactly the one I would want. I'll check it out, thanks Anon
>>127952001they sell a katana bass ampmore expensive tho
>>127953041Crush Pro is a tube amp, yeah?The big O is solid state; I'm over tubes.>>127953105The version you get free with certain midi controllers and interfaces is good: Ableton Live Lite. I would not buy Intro.
>>127953235no it’s a solid state amp>im over toob ampsuh huh

I thought stipe was singing caterpillar instead catapult, I'm gonna swap the lyrics around now to my own improved version
Wow, the Les Paul is the most nonergonomic and uncomfortable guitar to play. It's a disaster.
>>127953303Watching his videos reminds me of AVGN back in the day, especially the screaming and the cussing. Just a guy stuck with his schtick
>>127953467My hands are too smol for fenders :(
>>127953444I like ryan tho
>>127953474His videos used to be pretty decent but at some point in the last few years he completely sold out to the chinese importers and the lcd of his audience i.e unironic children and schizo redditorsits why i find him so loathsome, he used to be a great channel
>>127953235Thanks anon. I have that version
>>127953001I have an Orange Crush 20 and it’s decent to nice for a practice amp. The Orange product I’ll swear by is their parametric EQ, the Two Stroke.
>>127953444Ryan has the countenance of a man whose strangled a prostitute or seven.
Thoughts on Yamaha guitars and especially Revstat? Would you buy it?
>>127953622someday I'll buy a guitar that has p90's in them
Is Blackstar AMP really that much better than Orange Mini or is it just me?
tele with block inlays
smele with cock inlays
>>127953685the custom shop fender gave you
Did your technique improve with a premium pick?
>>127953863I use my fingers
>>127952915Nothing's stopping you from trying go for it! Having the bottom pick up recessed seems like a good idea. Maybe attach on the bridge as well rather than neck side so it doesn't get in the way of picking or strumming. I suggest getting 2 cheap identical guitars, say 2 firefly strats. Have one as the test model, the other to modify so you can A/B test it. Auditory memory is very short, around 5 second and the timbral information dies iirc. Best to have it plugged into an interface with 2 inputs so you can clearly hear what your mod did.>>127953863Not necessarily premium but a stiffer and thicker pick with beveled or pointy edges did help my widdly diddlies. But the regular thin picks sound better playing acoustic ime.
>>127953863i got one of these with my JHS chorus pedalit's the centerpiece of my pick collection but I rarely use it (i don't want to damage it)i keep it in the same case with humidifier as my prized Yamaha acoustic
>>127953960Lol
>>127952915so basically a reverse coodercasterkeep us posted
Is it just me or use a minor third as a chord tone in a minor chord sounds like shit?
>>127953891Same. 97% of the time it’s fingers, nails trimmed nice and short. For strumming strum with thumb and pointer exactly as I would with a pick, but the nails on those appendages are the picks.
the jaguar sounds more like a tele than an actual tele
>>127954003I think it's just you.
>>127954069imo it sounds halfway between a tele and a strathas those same snarly strat mids but can push those sharp tele treble sounds
>>127954121the stratocaster is the least middy guitar that exists, it has zero midrange the tone is scooped
>>127952865Bedroom musicians can't comprehend why you would want gear that can survive being tossed into a trailer 200 times a year, or why you'd pay extra for something that stays in tune, actually works, and doesn't feel like shit everytime you pick it up and play because you don't have the time or energy to baby it.
>>127954206>stays in tune, actually works, and doesn't feel like shit everytime you pick it upwhat is a Squier Telecaster
>>127953336>>127953303youtube asks their creators to do the open mouth content face lol. At least Glenn has settled on a "look at thing" pose. I'm also scared to buy v30s now because Glenn has been yelling at the camera about it for the past year.
22xxxxx0
Can we make "content face" a thing? I see fcking morons use "rn" outside of gg and can't believe that's a real thing.
v30's were good 30 years ago but there are so many better speakers out now, and I'm only talking about the mesa ones. they've always been mid
>>127954295They're extra midrangy and that's nice. What's your thing now?
>>127954216what you consider staying in tune and a decent player is two different things it seems
>>127954319which is funny considering they became largely popular due to people scooping mids for metal.
>>127953303this guy sucks at guitar for 60 years old. I was better than him at 13 and I started playing at 11. it's embarrassing to have long hair, be a 'metal guy' at 60 when you fucking SUCK at guitar. if he larped as a punk at least he has the guitar skills, but no
>>127954559vocaroo of you playing.
>>127954003how do you have a minor chord with a minor third
