Some days I wonder if it was a mistake switching from bass to guitar.
>>128314187people like to dog on bass but you completely drive the harmony and melody of the song. you can single-handedly ruin or make a song great
>>128314199Pretty nice.
Fuck me I just spent 2 hours cooking chicken Marsala with homemade mashed potatoes and locally farmed broccoli and I can’t eat it because the cooking wine I found in the regular grocery section is 14% alcohol and I’m a recovering alcoholic. I thought that shit was supposed to be like .5% to sell on the regular shelves. Oh well.
>>128314398F
>>128314398Oh I thought this was my /ck/ tab
>>128314398just cook the sauce for like 40 minutes itll all be gone. you might be able to light it on fire once it gets hot enough to vaporize the alcohol. that should bring it down to 1%
>>128314398Why can’t you eat it? Does eating food cooked with 14% alcohol wine make you relapse or something? Doesn’t cooking it burn off on the alcohol? Genuine question, I am a square who’s never drank.

In March 1968, during a Grateful Dead concert run at the Carousel Ballroom in San Francisco, Jerry Garcia pushed bassist Phil Lesh down a flight of stairs backstage after becoming upset with Lesh's playing during a performance. The incident occurred on the weekend of Lesh's 28th birthday, specifically after one of the shows on March 15–17, 1968. Lesh later recounted in his memoir, Searching For The Sound, that he had been emotionally affected by the recent death of friend Neal Cassady and had momentarily stopped playing during a jam, entering a state of mental disorientation. Garcia, reportedly enraged and high, grabbed Lesh by the collar, shouted, “You play, motherfucker!” and shoved him, causing Lesh to fall down the stairs. Lesh described the moment as shocking, given Garcia’s typically gentle demeanor.Garcia later confirmed the incident in a 1974 interview included in the Grateful Dead Movie, admitting he had been so upset with the band’s performance that he “flipped out” and physically manhandled Lesh.
alcoholism is a disease, but if you ask me, it's the best one.
>>128314504>>128314506There’s a cup of wine in the sauce and I simmered it for about 15 minutes which according to Google burned off at most 50% of the alcohol. 7% alcohol is still enough to put be back in withdrawals as I just got off booze again last month. Don’t want to risk it. It’s fine my mom ate it and said it was good. She’ll freeze it and have it for dinner one night when my sister comes next month. I’ll make some chicken tendies when I get home from door dashing and have some of the potatoes. All good in the hood mainly pissed they sell actual wine on the grocery shelf in the baking section.
>>128314647Jerry was right.
>>128314647Fuck Lil Phil gon do.
I'm trying to make a baked ligma casserole bros. Can't remember what temp to bake it at though. Tubes are warming up as I put the 'role together.
thinkin bout running to the ol Home Depot to buy some shelving for my amps and heads

I thought you got your tubes tied
>>128314714You mean Lima bean? I'm looking up ligma on duck duck go and nothing's coming up. Is it a local dish or something?
>>128314775You talking to me?
You hearin this? Oh wait, I didn’t press record...
>quietly and discreetly sneaking into gg

Use any extra routing under your pickguard as a conversation-starter salsa bowl at your next party.
>>128315302What is your multi-meter reading on resistance when you probe your speaker cable?
>>128315312I fear the shielding paint might ruin the salsa's flavor
>>128315354I think I may have got it fixed it appear it was a bad jack
Neck-thrus look cooler than set or bolt on.
>>128313978AAAAAAAAAWHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DOA TELE-SG-CASTER??!!?!?!NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
fat
Just realized the pocket chip nut and pick guard bracket is also chrome on the lp studio. Gonna have to fix that. Or maybe I’ll be like Avril and take the whole thing off heh
>>128315609Give him a break his dad was a raging alcoholic and he’s one of us. Would not be surprised at all if wolfie lurks this general.
Are there certain basses that handle lower tunes better? Whenever I go low on my P bass it just kinda sounds off to me
>>128315669Increase string gauge or get a 5 string
This but with black tuners and blank truss rod cover. She will be mine. Oh yes.
>>128315706Thanks ill get some thick strings tomorrow
>>128315669Like drop tuning or standard tuning and lower frets?
>>128315586I was gonna do a SG vs Tele episode but then I saw that beauty
My tele is suddenly geting way out of tune every 5min, like 1/4 or a semitone off, admittedly I've been playing some pretty hard riffs but this has never happened before
>my mij strat arrives today ahhhhh
>>128315737>todayEuropoors get out
>>128315737
>>128315737keep us posted dude, don't wait 24 hours to open it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UESx79BhGb4
>>128315734Are the strings old? Old strings get to a certain point where they no longer hold tuning or intonation. Fender recommends you change your strings every 40 hours of practice in their manual.
>>128315771I’m excited that I’ll be motivated to change my strings more often now that I’ll have a guitar where it requires less than 5 minutes of effort to do so. I like playing new strings, hate changing them. Simple as
>>128315771They're like 3 weeks old, I've been playing bass more so they've had maybe 15 hours at best

>>128315823Check the nut, it might be catching the strings -- use graphite (pencil lead) it'll help lubricate your note (heh)
>>128315823Idk maybe you never stretched them properly and playing harder is stretching them. Try stretching them for like 5 minutes and see if it holds tune
>>128315899Yeah but probably not all strings a semitone if it’s the nut. Doesn’t make sense. Unless he went up in string gauge and didn’t file the nut.
Keep confusing Tyler Larson with Daniel Larson
>>128315932I miss lil niggas Nashville noises like you wouldn’t believe
Any new update on Phil McKnight? Did anything change overnight?
>>128315947>update on Phil McKnightWhat happened?
>>128315968That's what I'm trying to find out. Any news?
>hit volume knobmy fault, i will work on my playing
>>128316065all good bro I got into it and pushed the tempo a little there
>>128315586I think it looks cool
>>128315567looks too much like a bass
>>128313978Can I use a jazzmaster neck in a strat and vice versa?
>>128316248Yeah but not 100% sure about the wraparound bridge.
>>128313978>No bridgeHow do you adjust the intonation?
>>128316298I don’t keep up with offsets but if it’s a short scale and the other isn’t then no. well you could but you’d need to remount the bridge/saddles
>>128316298yep
>>128316344you don’t really lol. actually there are two grub screws in the ear of the bridge on most models that can slightly adjust the intonation but that one doesn’t appear to have them. boomers could give two shits about playing in time or in tune as long as the theoretical tone is there
i need this shirt
>>128316416
>>128316344Think of it like an acoustic guitar bridge -- but adjustable you can move the left or right sides back and forth.There are actual aftermarket wraparound bridges that allow you to intonate but its silly that you have to spend extra to get something which should be standard on your 1k+ guitar.
>>128315722Drop tunings. Im trying to jam and play along to songs in those tunings
>>128315567neck thrus are ugly. especially when they those stupid looking 7 piece necks brands like kiesel doesset thru will always be the best
>>128315947I like Phil when he's doing tech stuff and showing things from the workbench, but otherwise his channel is purely making up shit and talking out of his ass for content for his fansalmost everything he says are just hot takes
>>128314187Can't you just play both?
>>128316538You can’t just add heavier strings I’m not sure how large the bass tuner slots are or how your nut is cut. Usually it requires you file the nut at least. Might be better to get a 5 or 6 string bass
>>128316579I could, but I'm pressed for time between two jobs right now.
I just noticed the guitarist from queensryche was rocking a HS telecaster type build in the music video for I don't believe in love... how did he do it? How did he pull of those sicc tones?
>>128316786a handjob and a rimjob? lmao gayjk hope you find you some time soon

>that one white boy who thought he could hang with a Mexican All so tiresome.
ive been practising on a cheap 15 watt HB tube amp and now i want to start adding some gain and fuzz, plus some delay and other effect options. im a homosexual and a snowflake, and therefore i like the look of boutique pedals so ive been thinking of getting the wampler tumnus deluxe and the cryptid fuzz (apparently has a lot of options for different fuzz tones). then a zoom MS-70CDR+ for effects like delay and chorus and more reverb options. im wondering if that's gonna be enough for gainy metal tones, since the amp can already do some mid-level gain, or do i need a rat or something? could get a HB rat clone for like 20€ in case everything else fails.
>>128315302looks right depending on the jack configuration.
>>128317404Forget fuzz, get a Packrat.https://youtu.be/NEh4oxKYtSQ
>>128317454cant just forget fuzz because i want to play all sorts of stuff ranging from fripp style prog rock to heavy doom metal. also death and black.
>>128316970Just get a katana 50w and plunder the tone cloud>>128317029Boss bought roland but idk about the others
>>128317476BOSS SD1 and Big Muff
more like Phil McDay
>>128317791I hope he pulls through.

My dog-ear P90 covers are buzzing (mechanically). Do I just need to tighten down the screws, or do I need to take off the covers are glue them to the bobbins?
>>128318080I think there is foam on the backside of the pickup that should keep the two pieces together. idk never messed with p90s

Whats a good versatile tube head under 1k (preferably closer to 700) for both classic rock sounds and high gain metal? Looking at ENGL ravager and a H&K tubemeister 40. Other options? Good cab sim would be nice too, but not essential.

>bro just discovered a metronome
I'm a bass player wanting to learn a little guitar for funpulled the trigger on this one last night.I hear that the trem could use a replacement, but is that really necessary - does it actually have troubles staying in tune?also read that replacing the pickups with pure vintage 65s would be a great upgradeopinions?
>>128318699god dammit
>>128318546
>>128318724>be me, advanced bass player >playing tied 16th note syncopations >guitarist tries to politely tell me to try working with a drum machine after the jamsometimes you have to play very basic and boring to make the rest of the band feel better about themselves

>>128318758youre a bass player stay groovy. complex bullshit is not the point of your instrument. should have been a lead guitarist.you're a bad bass player if you dont understand why people dont want a bunch of technical spam on the low end of the sound. also victor wooten fucking is not somebody to look up to.
>>128318792>just be groovy>but don’t play anything more than 1/8th notes!the fact that you think 16th notes are technical spam is sad
>>128318814i think you're probably being too busy. sadly being an advanced player in guitar or bass or any instrument doesnt mean good taste.ive seen monster guitar players who ruin songs by overplaying. but at least lead guitar is an instrument you can be flashy on. bass playing isnt about flashiness.
>>128318758senpai, I've been having troubles with the 16th notes in CCR's I put a spell on you.any tips and tricks to manage these? it's right at the border of what my skill level
>>128318856brother a tied 16th note is longer than a 16th note. it was to create space the guitarist just can’t play in time and was uncomfortable with it. not a big deal but when his solo is 1/8th notes I have to keep the song from sounding awful >>128318861those are triplets and sextuplets but not complete sextuplets. or someone really fucked up tabbing that out. I recommend dropping down to 30-40 bpm and practicing your quintuplets and sextuplets. it’s equally as hard to play it slow but you subdivide them more accurately
>>128318905you sound like a shitty band if your lead guitar player is strictly playing 1/8th notes for a guitar solo.he should probably be doing the 16th notes and not you.
>>128318699>>128318709It's a pretty standard upgrade to replace the trem with an avri, but not needed for it to stay in tune if you aren't reguarly using the trem.
>>128318923I didn’t ask him to play that lol
>>128318861also you might even try to think of that as cut time. where beats one and two would equal an entire bar. the sextuplets would kind of become 16th notes. kind of hard to wrap your head around initially but it really helps for triplets imo
my electric guitar broke and before i fix it i want to use it as an excuse to buy a new onethe one i have is Cort X-5, i'm a noob and don't know shit about guitars, any recommendations for something around $500?is it ok to buy used guitars? is it better to buy used from shops than individual people? what should i look for when buying used?or is it better to jest buy a fresh one?
>>128318861okay I just looked this up and it’s in 12/8 (should have been written on the staff). for this I would think of every beat as a triplet and every part where it is doubled just double that piece of the triplet. that makes sense now that I look at it. just practice it that way until you have the speed to do it. the rakes are easy but playing the triad on those 3 beats will take some work. could maybe hammer on but that sounds different
>>128310187I like this Supro 1688TN + 2x12" Oxfords profile, it's on TONE3000.https://vocaroo.com/184H1JAM0VE4
>>128319065Always buy used unless it happens to be some meme model that gets sold for more than list prices, still doesn't hurt to check. Buying used from a store will cost more but there's less chance of you getting mugged during the meetupThere's plenty of good shit around $500 but what do you like exactly?
>>128318905>>128318944>>128319071thank you sensei for your guidance
>>128319118np. practicing so slow sounds dumb but it really does work for feeling subdivisions. finger speed takes a long time to build unfortunately. for that I recommend Scott’s bass lessons groove trainer app. you can set it to increase X amount of tempo every Y amount of bars among other things. good luck broski
https://voca.ro/1cuNsbI02uV9
>>128319105this cort x-5 was my first electric, which i got from my brother, it's the only guitar i played so i don't have strong preferencesi think this cort is a superstrat and the shape was fine with me, i prefer the double cutoutsi had an issue with hammer-ons and pull-offs on high strings, for some reason they never sounded out well, i don't know if it's my technique or a guitar issue
Okay, I've narrowed it down to these accessories. Now I need to settle on a guitar and amplifier.
>>128318792Get a load of this guy. Lmao.>I like hot soup, but THIS soup is WAY too hot! Holy fuck I didn't realize people like you still existed lol. Fuckin hell I didn't know I could still cringe like that. You are just awful. Thankfully nobody with a brain even registers your words as relevant. Damn lol.
>>128319507tasteful playing over anything you could produce. theres a reason virtuosos rarely produce good songs. because each of their songs become about technical wank and showing off their prowess.again you're just one of the idiots who thinks he needs to be star of the show when he's a fucking bass player. sing or play lead guitar if you want all the attention.ill post an example of what im working on atm. i play many genres but i like blues. you'd probably put 1000 fucking notes in a 2 second gap after the singer singshttps://voca.ro/1juCGRujnLJK>t. better musician than you
>>128319736>who thinks he needs to be star of the show when he's a fucking bass player.sounds like you're a little guitar princess who needs all the attention only for herself.your poor band mates, if you even have any
>>128319776im not a flashy guitar player and i play to suit the music. it isnt a talent show or olympics. technical wank is the last thing i think about when soloing. i prioritize the song and suiting what the band is playing.bass players who need bass solos are fucking cringe. bass solos sound like ass 90 percent of the time. just play melodic bassline hooks.this is an example of perfect basslinehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PnzXZlm4wwgthis is the bass' strongsuit. it isnt a lead instrument. and it doesnt need to be overly complicated. it sounds like shit if you do more thn this.
>>128319736I was just joking. I actually agree with you. Nice playing as always bro.
>>128314199P90s go so well on Telecasters, I'm surprised there aren't more made in that spec.
>>128314187Not a mistake and there are transferrable skills between the two, although I would suggest fully developing a finger style technique on bass and not just adapting your flat pick guitar style to it for greater versatility.>>128314197Only people who dog on bass are nubs who don't know anything about music, comping or how harmonies work but I guess it's true that bass is not a glory hog instrument, people more often pay attention to vocalists and guitarists.
Seeing the kind of playing that get millions of views on social media is so depressing, it's always some dude trying to sound like a dj, or a teenage girl/boy in a pink room playing pop melodies in the most boring way possible
>day 5 >still no guitar center refund Istg if it’s not in my account tomorrow morning
>>128320355i guess you arent familiar with guitar instagram where its all shredding and technical playing.
>>128320346he's switching from bass to guitar not the other way around
>>128320367That’s all gay, too. Oh boy let me sit in a room by myself with professional lighting and record a 45 second track 5 seconds at a time until it’s perfect then mime over it for the video. Really cool shit.

>3rd email from guitar center this morning about making purchases for items I’ve been looking at / sales>15th time unsubscribing>continue to get emails every other hourAfter my 150 dollar credit is spent on whatever accessory I choose to buy I swear I am never spending another cent of my money at a guitar center for the rest of my life. They are getting blocked and filtered. Between the nigger fucking my online order, the moody man children at my local store who huff and puff when you don’t buy their extended warranty or apply for a gc card, the incessant spam emails and the lack of proper weights and photos of individual guitars they have online I’m fucking done. They don’t even inspect guitars before they go out or make any attempt to insure they’re playable. Honestly hope they go bankrupt.
>>128321024*ensure not insure
>>128321024>the moody man children at my local store who huff and puff when you don’t buy their extended warrantyWhere the fuck are you shopping every store clerk I've ever bought something from has laughed about having to even offer me that nonsense

>not buying directly from the manufacturerWe live in the future 99% of them will ship it right to you if you're retarded enough to not buy used gear in the first place.
Man being in a tiny town sucks, the only guitar store around is only stocking the cheapest shit imaginable
>>128321057Last time I checked they were always like $100 more compared to buying from other distributors, has anything changed?
>>128321038It’s mostly one guy that gets upset about it. It’s not my fault he chose to work somewhere for slave wages and has to supplement his income selling bs warranties.
>>128321068Was looking at gibsons website yesterday and they actually have some pretty good deals. Also, they set the guitar up for you before they ship it. I’d rather support Gibson directly and get a guitar right off the manufacturing line than the big box guitar stores. But it really depends on price. Not sure if you can call them and haggle.
>>128321059iktf
>free shipping>hundreds of models / colors you can’t find in big box store>free setup>same price as big box >not sure if they charge taxhttps://www.gibson.com/products/gibson-les-paul-standard-60s-figured-top-unburst?view=gibsonIf you could get them to knock a couple hundred dollars off over the phone it’d be an even better deal. Pretty sure I’ll order my standard direct from Gibson when I decide to get one.
>>128321059If it makes you feel any better I’m in the same boat, closest gc is an hour and a half away which makes it even more infuriating when they give you a pissy attitude about a warranty that covers setups you’ll never use because it takes 3 hours out of your day to drop off and pick up the guitar. like no nigger I don’t care if setups are included I’m not driving 6 hours total to have one done.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-bvNttwAUc
>>128321077>Was looking at gibsons website yesterday and they actually have some pretty good deals.Even better buying from the demo shop on reverb. Just add it to your cart and/or favorite it and wait for a day or two. They'll usually send you a very reasonable offer.
>>128321124True. I’ve heard about that. I’ll have to keep it in mind when I have the money for a standard.
>>128321124What is with gibson and these half pickguards?
>>128321124>gibson victoryDamn never seen that before, it's like a PRS but less gay
>>128321153>PRS but less gayTo be fair that’s pretty easy to do
>>128321124Thinking about it if they offer discounts on reverb chances are they’ll do it if you call the customer service number about a non demo shop guitar as well. Worth a shot. You know they can still make more than they sell it to distributors for if they knock a few hundred off.
>>128321167Oh for sure, I completely agree. I just like the demo shop because I'm a cheap bastard.
>>128321147It's just a call back to acoustic guitars which gibson loves to do
>>128321182Damn I didn’t realize they were that cheap and they’ll give you more off? This is the exact guitar I want. If I can get it for under 1500 I might just forget about the studio and save for this. I mean that’s cheaper than they go for on the used market. https://reverb.com/item/91984031-gibson-les-paul-standard-60s-bourbon-burst-demo

>>128321218>that’s cheaper than they go for on the used market.Exactly. It might take a few days but they'll toss you an offer for sure. They're also pretty good about showing pics of the actual damage/qc issues on the individual listing that had it relegated to the demo shop to begin with.

>>128321244https://www.guitarcenter.com/Used/Gibson/Used-2019-Gibson-LES-PAUL-STANDARD-60S-BOURBON-BURST-Solid-Body-Electric-Guitar.gc?algoliaQueryID=cb32fa38699ea83587ea02ba74a53a73&algoliaIndexName=pLH-guitarcenterThis one has a super nice top. Considering possibly using my account credit, seeing if they can go any lower, and putting a deposit / layaway on it until I have the rest. Shouldn’t take more than a week. A 60s standard bourbon burst is what I originally intended to buy before my car fucked me and anything else was coping.

>>128321153They're neat, also 25.5" scale.
>>128321297just buy a Telecaster brother, that will end your search for the perfect guitar. The Telecaster does Les Paul tones better than Les Pauls (Led Zeppelin 1 is my only example, no I won’t find any more examples).
>>128321297
>>128321331wtf is that
>>128321331>shart squirt Les Paul more like More Pooaul amirite
>>128321325I had a Baja tele with custom shop pickups and it was just ok.
>>128321340mineral streak i guess
>>128321354That’s.. unsightly.
Trying to decide whether I should learn the keyboard parts on guitar for a song I like, if I am to play it alone, and constantly switch between guitar parts and keyboard parts while I sing.Also, I haven't changed the strings since I bought the axe in March.
>>128321372That sounds really annoying but whatever you want to do
>>128321372If it were me I’d track them and play it as a backing track. I doubt anyone will care that the keys aren’t live. That’s
>>128321393Are you ok????
bend. every. note.
Good morning GG. Time to practice
>>128321402I was going to say that’s what I would do if I played a song like jump live without a keyboardist but it auto posted before I finished typing.
Why not hire a keyboardist to do everything that isn't drums
>>128321501They do drums too
>>128321443I was talking about playing alone for me. My equipment is a katana the size of a lunchbox.
Why do people like Dunlop Tortex picks? I’ve used regular Dunlop nylon picks for a long time and just got some Tortex to try out and they make the guitar sound much less bright and less snappy.
>>128321537they're the "default" choice I guess, most people really just keep using whatever they started with and got used to, I'm more of an ultex guy
>>128321537I just have always preferred them. I like how they feel, they're easy to hold onto when my hand is sweaty, and I get decent mileage out of them before they need to be tossed.
Thinking about buying a lap steel. There’s an old Fender one from the late 50s in good shape locally for a good price and I want to give lap steel a shot. Getting used to a new tuning will take some time but they’re commonly tuned to open G and I’ve got years under my belt playing guitar in open D so a lot of that should transfer over with some practice and once things begin to click.
>>128315609This guy writes the most generic rock music ever its actually impressive how bland it is
>>128319736>https://voca.ro/1juCGRujnLJKthis sounds like complete shit and has been done 10000 timeskys
>>128321522They can, but the drums are a little unique in how you need that acoustic power on stage, which is why edrums haven't completely replaced them. Keyboardist can have bass and synths going live while still playing an actual piano part which is more than enough to hire them.
>>128319736This is awesome, sounds like the white Tele is at work.
>>128321731Gonna be honest though, I have not a single clue what was being said.
>>128321331The symbol of the waves of the river. It is very powerful. That guitar has earned the right to display the symbol from the otter god, who controls the holy rivers.
What is the best excersise for string skipping?I've tried this and it's too hard https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZ8DQwd4E-Iat 84bmp I already miss half of them, at 108 I can't hit anythingIs it even useful? When strings go one by one I can probably do something like this, but when I have to skip it's a mess
>>128320346I’ve only ever seen guitarists complain about bassists but guitarists are the least knowledgeable and technically sound members of the band typically
>>128319736too much drive, too muddy, too repetitive and not groovy imo
there's a lot of bassist on bassist violence desu. alot of the youtubers/forums/etc have a palpable level of friendly fire and what almost seems like disdain for the instrument at times.
>>128322510can we see some examples
>>128319736>you'd probably put 1000 fucking notes in a 2 second gap after the singer sings>*proceeds to give them singer no space at all*
>>128322457I’d like to see you play complex rhythms and leads on the same instrument faggot. Bassists and drummers have it easy. Guitarists have to basically play piano on a strings. I should know, I play drums and bass as well.
1/2 a cup left.
>>128322525nah i left all that behind. guitarists can have ego problems too but at least they wear it on their sleeve, makes it easy to know what you can expect.
>>128322510I really see/hear that in local scenes. I always want to be better than my drummers other bassists.
>>128322561I can crosspick wildwood flower. just because you can play twinkle little star doesn’t make you a qualified expert on another instrument.
>>128322572Guitarists are generally the primary songwriters so it’s natural for them to be more particular and demanding. Not necessarily ego centric, but we know how we want the song to sound. Look what happened when hetfield started letting Kirk and rob contribute more to writing.
damnrip
>>128322600I play rush and tool on drums and can play anything on bass, finger style, slap, pick, etc. I’m a competent musician all around but my main instrument is guitar.
>>128322607Vaxx status?
>>128322607Source?
>>128322617if that was true you’d listen to other music and wouldn’t be talking out of your ass about what is or isn’t complex for an instrument
>>128322607this would actually be sad desu
>>128321930Paul Gilbert uses a lot of string skipping licks. Also check out Troy Grady and Anton Oparin. You've got to figure out the mechanics before spending hours on exercises as you might end up with inefficient technique that is deleterious in the long run.
>>128322622>>128322631>>128322658>>128322607Calm down. He broke his foot and is in a boot, having to use a mobility scooter.
>>128322691it looks weird and stupid, he forgot to draw a finger, it's impossible and I don't see how can I benefit from thisthe pick goes even higher and stops further from the next string - this teqchique is dumb af
If you play metal or rock, your opinion on music isn’t credible.
Pink at the bottom is what I wanna rent the most, along with some cables, a strap, and buy some picks.
>>128322891>$34/mo to rent an Epiphone
>>128319450>Buying an EHX fuzz that isn't a Muff.bruh
>>128322891>renting gear
>>128322891qrd on this 'Danny' character?
>>128323003I wouldn’t worry about him. even buck broke anon dropped his trip after a thorough dismantling in /prod/ general
>>128317476get that $20 behringer fuzzit actually is great
>>128315737Update?
>>128322789You can always stick with what works for you and see how well that works out. Without a competent teacher to see what you're actually doing wrong you've got no choice but to figure out which approach of the myriads available will get you the results you need. Sometimes the problem is the approach, sometimes it's really a matter of the student not quite ready to tackle specific technique or phrase due to having issues in seemingly unrelated areas or holes in other minutia - wide unnecessary movements on either or both hands, weird pick angle, tension.. the list is endless. But such is the struggle with being self taught, that's why some people get stuck in a plateau for years cause they don't know what they're doing wrong.TLDR to git gud at this you've got to be an autist or get a teacher.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9RJXWxth5gpost songs with good bass solos
>>128322891If you put the money aside for 6 months you can just buy that Epiphone used
>>128323064First Fragment has a lot of sick fretless bass solos
>>128322891>these are the people that complain about gear posts
>>128322644I didn’t say that’s all I play I meant I can play it. As in some of the most technical drumming. But go ahead Mr multi instrumentalist explain how bass or drums are more complex instruments.
>>128322891This is bait
>>128323191I’m going to let you figure it out on your own because you’re arrogant and I’d rather see you fail.
how do i play like Josh Homme
Fender
Gibby
Femder
>>128323475
>>128323310Saying one instrument is more complex than another is not arrogance bro. I concede that piano and horns are more complex than guitar in many ways. I’m just saying that out of the instruments in a 4 piece rock band guitar is the most challenging and difficult to master. And I base this off of my own lived experience playing all of them at either an advanced or professional level.
Drums are a completely different skill set than guitar bass or vocals, how do you even compare which is harder?
>>128320746I own all of them and feel no difference. Fuck high notes.
>>128313978Wait Fender bought G&L?
>>128323718I don’t think one is harder than the other but it takes a certain kind of person to play either. Some people are good at both. However, improvising and writing drums is far easier than guitar and it’s not integral to the melody of the song. The thing that makes guitar more complex than bass or drums is the fact that you have to keep the rhythm and drive the melody at the same time.
>>128323980Yes. I hope they add a line to reflect Leo's later work.
Which guitar YouTuber most deserves a signature model, in your opinion?
>>128323064https://youtu.be/RavHtJJocfk&t=1509
>>128324168you mean making Strat and Tele copies with bad pickups?
>>128324371none of them
>>128324371Brad the GuitologistScott Grove
>>128324371Which one is an a band you can name?
>>128324371Tyler Larson should get a PRS with a built-in fart pedal
>>128324409It should have a spring-loaded cable eject.
Shoutout to the key of A.
>>128323325make a riff out of any three chords you like then put an aeolian harmonic over it
Just walked back from BK. Got three triple whoopers, large fry, onion rings,and mozzarella sticks. Got one of those long chicken sandwiches for the seagulls in the GC parking lot. Feeling fueled up and ready to rock. Gonna head to gc to try out some acoustics once the Uber gets here
>>128324553>aeolian harmonicDo you mean a harmonic minor? An aeolian mode with a sharpened 7th?
>>128324400Chris buck is the only YouTuber I know of in any kind of respectable band.
>>128323980Oh. Think they’ll keep the ugly ass g&l headstocks or put fender headstocks on them? Either way will be cool to have more variety from fender
Rumour on the street is Taylor has been writing some doom metal songs. Apparently her and the band have already performed at private performances.
>>128324719I heard was aeolian harmonic but this dude describes it as lydian dominant #2 or mixolydian #2#4https://www.jamieholroydguitar.com/play-josh-homme-scale-guitar/
>>128324904Is this real? Ai can't normally do strings this well
>>128321615nobody does it nowadays anyways. they all focus on single note lead instead of chordplay>>128321731its actually the stratocaster.>>128322556its less invasive than licks.
>>128322484its got to be somewhat repetitive as its rhythm playing. but i am mixing up what i do during it.
>>128324927What in tarnation>>128325207She has 5 strings on that guitar
How do I sound less muddy when playing at a lower tuning? Sometimes it feels like my strings are too loose for a proper tone
>>128325283One of her guitar idols is bower though
>>128325409Never mind I got it
Will playing unplugged make me a better player?
>>128325916If by unplugged you mean with an acoustic guitar, yes
>>128325916Your "touch" is going to be different when you're playing an electric guitar unplugged, but basic stuff like synchronizing the hands is going to be the same. I'd say if you can get more practice in by playing unplugged, do it
>>128325969>>128325969>>128325969
>>128325916Unplugged electric is no good you will play too loud and when you plug back in it will sound bad
