Does laminate v solid actually matter for acoustic or does it all sound the same to the average joe listening and not seriously playing guitar?
>>129326442it matters for tops.
tonewood matters because acoustics are not minimally resonant
>>129326421But seriously it's just muscle memory like everything else, the key is practicing as often as possible.
Mahogany necks are warmer sounding than maple necks. That much is obvious.
>>129326466Thanks anon
Is this response accurate? Prompt:>I'm playing guitar, and I was practicing the Locrian mode, first I was playing A Locrian, then I moved the box up to C, C# and D, and then back down to A, and even G#. It sounds good, harmonic and cohesive. In music theory terms can you expand a little bit on what I'm actually doing?

>>129326498LLM's know nothing but jacking you off. To be fair I don't know much about theory myself. But I do know Locrian is 1 b3 b5whole/half Diminished scale is a symmetrical pattern with repeating stacked minor thirds. It's in the name itself, so repeating those things in minor thirds work.

Theres too many guitars out there. What will become of them all?
>>129327117Relic'd x10 cost, inflating the market and causing guitars to be sold at $1 dollar piece. A golden age of new guitarists will then rise through the abundance of affordable instruments.
Ordered some Curtis Novak PUPs for the sunburt JM too. I forgot how shrill the Pure Vintage 65’s are. I put my blue JM in drop D and did an A B with the burst JM and it doesn’t even compare how much fuller the Novak PUPs sound. Highly recc to anyone with a JM.

I got a 4x12 cab that I can hook it up at 16ohms and it's got a bunch of cool features too but I'm skeptical since nothing can beat the sound of tubes

I haven't changed the strings on my guitars since I bought them. One is at least 3 or 4 years old, the other I bought roughly a year ago. Is this a bad thing?
>>129329071Does it sound good?
>>129329071where do you negros live where shit doesn't corrode?
>>129327499nice amp, anon.start everything in the middle and adjust each one +or- to your ears.and remember if you have more than one guitar, they will react differently to the amp, so settings for one might not sound good with another guitar.
>>129329077I think they sound fine, yeah. The low E on one of them rattles against the fret too much no matter how well I'm playing, though, but I think that's a separate issue from what a quick google tells me.>>129329104I live in a normal house where the temperature doesn't fluctuate that much, I guess, rather than a little shack exposed to the elements.

How long does it take to get decent at singing? If anyone in here has experience with that
>>129330366very long. you need to work on >perfect pitchpractice now
>>129330240no not yet im just having fun jamming on it unplugged I’ll post more pics later
>>129330366Depends on innate talent. Everyone has vocal ranges, though, so you should try to find which key is most suited to your voice. Then, practice songs in that key, and transpose other keys into that one, etc.
>>129330366it's not something i've ever actively practiced. i think it has to do with always singing in your head. i've been doing that since i was a kid. then i hit karaoke one night and got treated like a rock star

>>129326847Sweep picking and economy picking. Use a compressor if you want to up the difficulty level. >ExerciseTry to play a perpetual motion machine, where you can do a pattern continuously. You build endurance and can work on each “lap” to tweak what sounds better. Here’s what to shoot for:>economy of motion>ideal picking location/distance>string skipping limitations (use SWYBRD)The idea is that you can turn on sweeping, economy picking, and alternate picking on demand. Picture your pick following your finger’s whim - or, like I do, chasing down some PNCA student in the Lone Fir Cemetery (PDX).>GOAL(s):First, arthoes. Second, develop the facility that you can turn on sweeping, economy picking, and alternate picking on demand. Hell, if you drag your thumb while sweeping, you can get pinch harmonics (especially with high gain).Personally, the slime has been doing economy picking on acoustic, where my pick is using the least amount of effort between parallel strings. Because I can’t rely on low action with 9s, I have to adjust for string thickness and the amount of effort to keep dynamics in check.Bonus tip: you don’t have to sweep perpendicular to the strings. Experiment with diagonals (over pickup verses adjacent to the fretting hand). Use pic related for guidance
>>129330766I prefer to alternate pick everything

>>129330788HH brother.

>>129330417>perfect pitchWhat does this mean in terms of singing? Just hitting the note you want without any reference?>>129330519I feel like normies are quite easy to impress, that's ultimately what I meant by "getting decent at singing">>129330502Thanks
>>129330900>ThanksNP, Anon. You should find a key very 'easy' to sing in, also its relative minor key. I wish someone told me to practice singing and playing at the same time earlier on in my path. I am a clumsy retard though.ps.. buy a strap and always sing/play standing up
>>129330996I play & sing simultaneously when I can, I live with my parents though so I have to find times when I'm alone because I'm embarrassed of my singing even though it's not awful>find a key very 'easy' to sing inHow do I do this? Is it just listening by ear?
>>129330900>perfect pitchThis anon is wrong. You can’t develop perfect pitch reliably unless you’ve had it at 4. Chinese students have it more because the tones of their language are constant. Basically, they practice these pitches each day as their voice. Exposure to piano at a young age is another method. Even Beato’s hapa kid is proof of this.I think the dude meant “relative pitch”. Yeah, work on that. You should feel your throat make the appropriate pitch before sounds come out, as you’ll hit a vocal ramp up to the pitch. Try it. Sing a fucking D. Then pause, sing the motherfucking D again. It’ll be easier and more in pitch, less ramping. Aim to get in the motherfucker range instead of just the fucking range. >Failure to do so will make you pitchy and a PERFECT BITCHIf you had perfect pitch, you’d already feel that D by thinking about it.>Learn more with Diana Deutsch:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diana_Deutsch
>>129331058Just 'noodle' with your voice. Go for a walk in a forest and do some relaxed mockery of country, jazz, rock songs. Speaking voice and singing voice are related but not exactly the same, but some of the best advice I got was 'singing should be as easy as talking.' Another way is to humm single notes along with a reference, like a piano or your (tuned) guitar, and see/feel which ones you can do without effort.
>>129331109I will. I wish I lived alone though so it'd be easier for me to practice singing. I have no issue playing my guitar in my house but singing seems taboo even though my dad sings all the time and has played an instrument since he was a teenager.
>>129331105perfect pitch is as dumb as those squiggly "true intonation" frets. it doesn't matter if your pitch is perfect, what matters is if you are in tune with the people you are playing with. a good ear beats perfect pitch every time unless you're a solo artist
>>129331151you don't need to sing loudly to practice singing. you can just hum or scat quietly to yourself in your room. most of us developed a musical ear because our brains are always filling silence
I think I'm going to document my PUP swap and re-setup so BBA can learn to work on his own guitars. Lil bro deserves better.
>>129331058>find a key very 'easy' to sing inYou have to know your range. For me, this goes (deepest to highest):> Bass> Baritone > TenorAnything past here gets rarer (ie. boy sopranos like Klaus Nomi)On top of that, your voice can be in 5 registers (or a blend of the adjacent ones):>Whistle tone>Falsetto>Head>Chest>Vocal fry/diaphragmEach of these has a break. For example, I have to switch to falsetto for anything above a G4 (3rd fret high e string). This is considered a break, where it’s difficult to maintain a timbre through phrasing without pausing. Otherwise you can get yodeling, which I believe is like glottal stop in linguistics.You can also change the resonance, which deals with mouth shape, you can hit harmonics, like throat singing. Advanced beyond this is extended techniques. Like, you can do the meatwad voice as like an “effects pedal”. I do voices, and I attribute this to my time spent doing impressions. Kermit the frog isn’t that far from Going Up the Country by Canned Heat. Try it and try switching between voices. Congratulations, you’re Tim Buckley:https://youtu.be/yUmK7rgiMM4?si=VqLJKyvGew3ruCLaListen to that switch when he sings at 1:15ish “anyway-aaaa” (chest voice, opening mouth, wide vibrato), transitions to head voice at the “oooo but darling, and he uses the throat tightening to add some character to the alliteration “sun shown down”.Just sing along with Tim

The clean blend adds back the low end that gets lost with bluesbreaker pedals. Also adds some pick attack. Translates to a snappier breakup tone. Takes a Klon very nicely without losing any of the attack or getting muddy at all. I also own the benson preamp, and I very much prefer this over that one. No shade thrown at the benson, but the morning glory has a more jangly or gnarly sounding gain

This is from my last band practice. Please don’t mind the shitty phone mic resolution https://voca.ro/1nLIPMUzRnmy
I think I'm finally understanding the fretboard, at least when it comes to where notes are & what half-steps/semitones are>B-C is a semitone>E-F is a semitone>A-A# is a semitone>EtcOther than that I'm dedicating a little bit of time to saying the notes as I play them, starting on a single string from open for right now
>>129334448Forgot to add this but what's next? What do I DO with this information to make good music?
https://voca.ro/1eE8mGPWChTY
>>129334447The vocals are because his mom just couldn’t get him a damn Pepsi
>>129334453once you know where the notes are you can make music with your scales and licks
>>129334453Scales and the relationship with chords. Semitones become irrelevant, as counting them is superseded by thinking in terms of chord shapes and interval patterns. There’s only so many, so just plow through them until you unite all these seemingly disparate elements into a more cohesive gestalt of playing.
>>129334416>>129334403Thanks, appreciate it>>129334402ThanksYeah it's got a lot of stuff in it I'm barely able to utilize. Also has a looper and a freeze pedal.

>>129334447nice. Cover or original? Sounds like 2007-2009 emo ish stuff. Lead guitar is sick too>>129334457Nice. What song is this? MTV flashbacks
why is orange the only amp manufacturer that tries to have good branding
>>129334453When you are improvising you will hear how different notes sound in context. When you know what note you are playing, you can remember how to recreate that sound and find it in other places on the fretboard. If you can't do this, licks are just lightning in a bottle.
What is the ugliest amp?
>25 years old>too old to start making musicIt's over, the only way to make music is if you've been doing it since you were 12 at the latest
>>129334722Randall signature Nuno Amp
>>129334820lmao good answer
Peavey dweezil zappa amp is close too
>>129334631Thanks, it’s original. That one is more straightforward pop-emo, but most of our stuff is inspired by cap n jazz, Glocca Morra, and Algernon Cadwallader. This is a song we are still writing vocals to. We are pretty satisfied with the instrumentals thoughhttps://voca.ro/1c6Pg7GUiYDg
>>129334857looks like clip art come to lifelooks like something a cartoon character from the 90s would own and play on at the school talent show or somethingwhen god was making amplifiers, he was mad pissed off that day he made thisif you play on this thing you gonna get laughed out of music school and yo girl gonna leave you for a freshman jazz pianistbasically, I would rather cut my own eyelids off and spend eternity watching old reruns of jerry springer than play on that thing right there

After doing some research on singing it doesn't seem so daunting as it did before, wonder how good I can get self-teaching. I just don't have the money for lessons right now
anons, is the 25+ year old doomer right? im gonna kms if he is. i just started playing guitar 5 years ago and ive been taking it "sriously" for the past 2 years and i just got a bass for christmast. soon-to-be 25 year old
>>129334932no fool. you can make music at any age, many boomers still do today. course, your tastes and abilities might change with time, but as long as you have a foundational education and you're dedicated enough, the sky's the limit.
>>129334932We work with what we have.Kanye West released his first album at 27 & rap is considered a "younger" genreDebbie Harry started Blondie at 31 & a womans looks deteriorate sooner than a mansJust take care of yourself & no one will care how old you are unless you're a geriatric
>>129334932You can start whenever. The only time it'd really be over is starting in your 60s/70sMost of us can't talk because we started as children with way more free time than you have. But being an adult learner has advantages in that you should be able to learn and grasp things quickStop bitching, 25 isn't even old
>>129334975>25 isn't even oldYou have less time to dedicate to making music than you would earlier in life & even if you're really good the chances of a label picking you up are slim because of your age though you could just lie if you look young.

>>12933467470's bubble font and starbucks logo.Colorful tolex is nice because millennials hate color. They love minimalism so much they actually will love owning nothing. Orange is a little bit farty because that's what letting low end get through the amp does, so they turned the amps into Marshalls with only give or take little bits. You can probably get more sounds you don't want with the older configuration, but that also opens up more sounds that you can get. At least it's not Mesa where you need to know the three settings on the five band graphic eq that you're going to actually use and how they're going to interact with getting the other eq to within half of a number and whether or not those should be pushed or pulled to boost. rating, strong 8 / 10 brand

Where do I even start when considering amps? Is there a cheap but decent 2nd hand model I can get out of the gate and not need to worry about upgrading?
I walked into a local mom and pop shop and there was some lgbtq looking person. I pulled out my phone and pretended something came up and just walked out. Look, I don't have anything against that stuff, but I'm gonna be real with you: I'm homophobic. I'd rather not shop at that place because it makes me unconfortable.
>>129335232>there was some lgbtq looking personShopping or at the counter?
>>129335226Read up, but mostly tube amps are a way overpriced and complete meme I wouldn't bother with nowadays. Plug into a daw or use a modelerIf you must, some Princeton, Blues Jr, Hot Rod Deville
>>129335226buy a katana until you feel like you can walk into a shop and crank a tube amp without embarrassing yourself

What’s your warm up tempo?
>>129335513Yeah.Still, visually I'd rate it better than the real amp it's based on.
why didn't they ever sell this? i don't know if epiphone had stopped US production by 1968.
You know what? It's not all about metronomes and scales and chord theory. Sometimes the best thing you can do is throw caution to the wind, dial up the fun and just let it rip.

Can you recommend these?
Indian Lauel - a small, bush like tree found growing naturally in swamplands throughout south asia. Spongy and inconsistent, historically not commonly used for construction, but in the 1980s a team of eco scientists, including none other than at the time Senator Al Gore, were granted 100 acres of hyper polluted swampland and canvassed it in Indian Laurel to seap up the human shit and piss. Not only did it work, but the wood became the color diarrhea brown. the bushy plants fed off the endless supply of shit and the democrats started to cut it down and sell it. they set up similar operations all over the place and if you have laurel on yoru guitar, just know it comes from a doo doo farm
>>129335996Should give you some stuff to work on if you're intermediate. If you're a beginner better get a good teacher who'll point out flaws in your fundamentals.

Kinda obsessed with the idea of a small amp with a 6-8" speaker for the last few days after unintentionally achieving a "small amp hanging on for dear life" type of toan with my analog ampless setup.But I doubt I'll use it for practice much, let alone for recording with mics (I'm stuck with cab sims for recording for the foreseeable future). Just as a preamp, maybe.
>>129336334Sing what you want to play. You don’t have to hit all the notes properly, but general range. You’ll soon realize that melodies tend to outline chords (and chords within chords ie. extensions).>>129336862This anon is right. Try to take something and move it around.

>>129326498LLMs don't know shit. Don't use AIsloppa for music.
>>129331299I learned to solder in pups before I even REALLY knew how to play properly. I can't imagine owning an instrument and not knowing how to work on tit, HOWEVER, BBA clearly very much loves his guitars, and might just feel more comfortable having a professional work on them. That way there's also a liability angle. If someone else fucks up your guitar, you can get them to fix it, if you fuck up your own guitar, that's entirely on you.

>>129338351it's not a shortcut, it's a prison
>owning a map is a prison
>>129337549According to Google, no black has ever worked on an instrument until 2017. You can't judge BBA too harshly, it's all new to them. Hell, even Indians landed on the moon before a black guy. I typed that out facetiously but realized I've never met a black guy that's modded their instruments at all. Like not even swapping pickguards. Not even pulling off the damn plastic film from it. There's gotta be a notable black musician with a unique guitar/bass out there, right? All I can think of is Bootsy's Space Bass, but it's not like he made it.
