Is Dunable a brand I should be familiar width?
>>129403787theyre a thing in the alt metal scene i suppose
I'm happy about my new guitar I just need help figuring out what to do
Are vintage electronic guitars worth looking at or are they far worse in terms of perfomance compared to more modern designs?
>>129403798turn on random 90s playlist on tv, try to find key by ear and play along making up your own stuff that fits the song
>>129403804depends on how much elbow grease youre willing to put into it
>>129403804anything worth buying is already priced outside of your league and anything that hasn’t been isn’t worth buying because it’s either in need of major repairs, is missing fundamental things like a truss rod, or is some piece of Russian junk that isn’t worth scrap metal prices
>>129403811This is the best way to practice. Jamming along to REAL SONGS
>>129403811>>129403823Got it.
How do you guys play with those sharp pointy picks without getting caught up in the strings? Skill issue?
>>129403840>skill issue yeah thats a skill issue
>>129403829I recommend 80s or 90s pop because it’s mixed in a way where you can actually hear the harmony and has a good balance of simple and complex progressions and rhythms. anything modern is shit with bad mixing and the older stuff is usually one or two chord vamps or is very complicated rhythmically or has very little remaining space in which to operate
I want to get good at transcription
>>129403945you need to vocalize along with your instrument while playing every time you play. the other part of transcribing is using theory to recognize patterns that are common in certain song structures and players; that gets rid of half the workload.
>>129403852Got any specifics you could link?
>>129403976sorry I don’t. if you want to start out easy with some 2 chord vamps with lots of space, play along to James Brown. particularly with The Original JBs. I assume you’re already working on your basic chords and general finger exercises. once you learn your intervals and how chords are built, and build up picking accuracy you’ll be halfway there.
>>129404000What's a vamp...?
Anyone following the Justin Hombach FAP method?
>>129404026I think it’s jazz slang for a short section of music that repeats. it’s used for improvising or letting thinks take place during the performance like a monologue dancing etc. basically it’s like lobbing a softball musically
1st 4 never shittin/gg/ cum#IntactBlackCherry
>watch pbs documentary about funk and “black liberation”>they just talk about james brown and don’t credit any of the black musicians that actually came before himwhat’s the point of being obsessed with history if you don’t want to get facts correct
How do you guys play barchords with this shape? I do it like in the pic. But ive also seen people do it by barring the 3 notes with their ring finger as well, but that feels kinda weird for me... WHat do you guys do, and what do you think is the best way?
>>129403798Nice telecaster! Playing other people's songs is sort of helpful, but learning on your own and flexing your creative muscles is far more helpful longterm. As the other anons said, a good way to do this is playing over other songs - this gives you a feel for timing and tempo rather than simply making the right notes or chords. Another thing I'll say is learn many different chord shapes and voicings. Moveable chord-shapes that you can bring up and down the fretboard are incredibly helpful for creativity. Writing songs becomes really easy this way. I'll also say, don't fall into the open-tuning trap yet. It might seem attractive or like a short cut to do easy single-finger chords, but they're incredibly limited, and it's often said you have to know the rules to know when to break them. This is one of those cases. Don't be afraid to break out of standard tuning, to be sure, but learning the notes, chord-shapes, voicings and scales in standard tuning should take precedent over trying new tunings. Anyway, I'm glad I'm not the only bound tele owner here now
>>129403804I tried to cope with them for ages and ages about them, but came quickly to the conclusion that usually even starter brands like squier or epiphone, when properly set up, can outplay older electric guitars.
>>129404351depends on where you’re going next and how fast you need to do it. take a look at this video. most people are not going to make those chords transitions fast enough using the classic technique https://youtu.be/ByY9WSXOR8c
>>129404026vampire riffs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ho9rZjlsyYY
>>129404381Ah i see, thank you
Recommend a good FRFR
phaser or univibe?
>>129404496ong
>>129404351I use index and pinky
>>129404351I do pic. Doing a semi-barre with something like a pink is tempting but using all fingers feels more controlled.
>>129404589same here. Easier that way.
I gave up on guitar because I couldnt do bar chords
>>129404662I was in yout shoes a week ago after starting guitar week before that. Now I can bar stuff semi-competently. If this isn't a shitpost I would genuinely feel bad for anyone who quit over bar chords.
>>129404662I've been playing for 15 years and bar chords as seldom as I can. They're not really that useful, but some of them are fun moveable shapes.
I think badly set up guitars have a lot to do with peoples barre difficulties
Who's using one of these?
>>129404692>>129404677Nah not a shitpost. Im the black bass anon who had the jazzmaster. When I was practicing last year I never really had that much fun like I do with bass. It's easy for me to pick up my bass and mess around over a drum beat or play along to songs, feels like I could do it for hours. When I was trying guitar last year, I always felt like I was forcing myself to play rather than just enjoying guitar. I learned 2 songs from a band I like but it was just notes so no chords. My attempts at songs with chords didnt go well but part of me wants to try again.
>>129404738Just use a pillow
>>129404754I learned everything I wanted to on guitar; singing and playing at the same time and a few jimi page and slash solos. I also went back to bass just because I’d rather be grooving; writing for bass also comes a lot more naturally to me. learning one can help you play the other which is nice. I just like playing music with other people I don’t really care about the attention
>>129404754I was originally learning 4 string and considered jumping to bass before deciding on 6 guitar. The only difference is the two strings but I feel like you get a lot more out of 6 than bass. You can try and jam solo but you're not going to get a lot of mileage compared to 6 string which can do a ton of stuff. Unless you are using something as tonely unique as double bass playing an electric bass exclusively seems like you are losing out on creative possibilites.
>>129404828I get where you’re coming from but I think less than 0.1% of players reach the creative limit with even 4 strings. it opens the door for fringe cases like playing full chords or getting that extra octave on the instrument, but if it’s not even as enjoyable as what some guy was playing in the 1960s on a bo diddley, then what was gained
>>129404589grumpstoid fingies
>>129404738no
You really should be playing standing up
>>129405023we should normalize playing while sitting. it’s better for your joints
>>129405032That looks awful on stage
>>129405050only because it isn’t normalized. thank about it…
You can play jazz, blues, country, classical, flamenco, and folk guitar all sitting down. You just need to stand if you are a spandex wearing head banger jumping around on stage.
I play noise rock sitting an swivel chair
I play classical in the contemporary position standing up
If you're gonna play sitting down, like a pussy, at least put the guitar on your left leg otherwise you risk looking like a chooch
>anon, normally I teach students G major for autumn leaves and say that's good>with you, you're moving too fast>lets get into harmonic minor
You DO need to stand to sing, but that's a different thread.
Bro is sitting down and singing. How does he do it?
rip ozzy. sang sitting down as a last act of defiance
>>129404794>>129404828It's really more about wanting guitars on my songs, I know I can ask people but part of me would rather play it myself. It would definitely take more dedication to learn guitar than bass. At this point im comfortable on bass in my 2nd year on the instrument. I'm looking into getting another guitar for my peavey since I'm not liking it that much. going to get a different bass and down tune that one. I would like to casually be good at guitar but still have bass be my main focus.
I sit down to pee
>>129405213bro looks like a paraplegic up there
better to cum in the sink than to sink in cum
>>129404589i thought i had small hands but i can do this chord with my index and ring no problem. it's better that way, your middle and ring finger are being cucked and have nothing to do. no embellishing allowed when you use your pinky to barre
I just realized I have long arms and good ergonomics are virtually impossible
>>129403975nta but I usually do fine with the note content stuff, it's just arranging the notes into the proper rhythms that is a complete bitch for me. Even if I can play the rhythm by ear, I just can't conceptualize the subdivisions for each note/group of notes a lot of the time.
>>129403975vocalizing isn't necessary. you can imagine what something will sound like in your head. vocalization is useful for communicating what something sounds like to another person if you don't have your instrument
>>129405584 (me)you shouldn't do anything goofy like vocalizing while you are practicing, because you will form a habit that carries over to performing and you'll be the weirdo who can't play without singing along to what he's doing
>>129404738I don't think it raises the guitar up nearly enough. Also, $200 is outrageous
>drop c>distortion on>doom stoner metal drum backing trackThis has awoken something in me.The only problem is that I am so lost in Drop C tuning. I cheat and just play as if I'm playing in D minor. But I want to be more conscious and perhaps even play in other scales. I'm waiting for my standard tuning guitar to arrive, so I can finally cave in and start learning the shapes for major and minor scales and become more proficient.>>129403945Start transcribing. It's ridiculous how ignorant we are of the fact that practicing actually helps. I hated the fact that there weren't any tabs of my favourite songs, so I started creating them myself. Utilize the AI stem splitting tools for even easier transcription.
>>129405023This. When i started playing guitar I gave myself two rules: never play other people’s music and never play sitting down. I’m glad I’ve followed those rules.
>>129405292same
I like my guitar strapped up high, centered on my chest
>>129405721>never play other people’s musichuh okay. kinda crazy, i cant even imagine doing that lol. why did you decide to do it, and do you think it has helped you be a better player?
>>129405874Brother this is /gg/You already know the answer to that question
what is the most retarded post(er) in these threads?
>>129405596>you shouldn’t do this thing that the majority of all professional players do>I am a random poster in /gg/, trust me
>>129405556That’s what happens when you don’t practice to a metronome. You can get by playing songs you’ve already heard and rehearsed a hundred times, but when it comes time to improvise you will miss the changes and rush your licks.
>>129405935the reason you think the majority of professionals do this is you're used to watching their tutorial videos on youtube, or worse paying for them on patreon. they are vocalizing for you, not for them. any musician worth their salt vocalizes in their head. what do you think a singer does, vocalizes before they sing? fuck outta here
>>129405949They can do it in their head only after many hours of actually using their voice. Learn some solfege
>>129405646I have my straps so high that the horn of my basses and guitars cover my nipple. Costs only $15and it makes me look jazzy. This dork might be a virtuoso, but I'm COOL, and that's all that really matters
>>129405949>can’t grasp causality
>>129405986singing in your head is not something you need to be a years-trained vocalist to do, are you fucking kidding me. anyone can do this, if you can't you have something wrong with you
>>129406026you shouldn’t practice. you should go straight to playing minor barre chords at 200 bpm. has a thought ever occurred to you that there is a period of inbetween which fosters more efficient growth? also consider that most of the greatest improvisers still vocalize in ways that are obvious to the audience
some people are wired differently than others
>>129406050this is one of the most retarded places on earth and you make it look like mensa
nick mensa is one of my favorite drummers
>>129406070sorry I can’t let you walk around wrong or people in this general that are new might parrot your ideas.

>>129405945No, you don't understand. I know how to play the shit in time with the proper rhythms. I simply struggle to know where to put the 5-tuplet 16th note group and dotted eighth rest when transcribing in notation software etc. so I have to brute force it doing guess-and-check, trying out different subdivisions and groupings until I find the combination that fits. For example, here's a Greg Howe Blues scale improv/demo thing I tried to transcribe. I guess this was before I figured out how to use grace notes.

>>129401195 (You) #>nice do you grow your finger nails out to pick like that or whatThanks. I have hard callouses from playing bass for years, so I can dig in for accents or use the smooth surface of the tips for what you’re hearing. I hate fingernails as a rule, but I do use fingerpicks on four of my fingers when I want Kottke speed.>>129401620>Is this even a guitar?

>>129406302ok I see what you mean. yeah I see a couple of errors in your pic; playing to a metronome wouldn’t do anything for that.

>>129407022These look nice but I can't get anything with 'berg' in the name
>>129403840The triangles? Those are useless forbidden Doritos. I guess they’re okay if you’re playing koto or baglama saz or something, but the surface are of the triangle gets caught up no diggity no doubt.I use Dunlop .73mm as an all around pick for acoustic and electric. If it feels too loose or I want to economy pick, you can choke up on it to reduce the surface area and tense up the material.The jazz iii and Dunlop stubby 3mm are really fun to use once you get over the learning curve. You’d be surprised how much your right hand slows you up and these picks tend to glide over without chirping too much.
>>129407050That name doesn't have the same connotations in northern europe
>>129403840Also, here’s a pointer:If you’re worried about getting caught up due to string depth, try picking right around the 15th - 17th fret range. Because the fretboard is below, you can use that as a depth finder. If you’re still dropping the pick, use one with grip material.>also check your saddle height and adjust accordinglyI really like moving my RH around in circular motions if I’m sweeping. Each string gauge has a certain amount of “give”/resistance and synchronizing how quickly you can actuate the string and move past it takes time to master. >exercise:Try to use minimal effort to pick an arpeggio across two adjacent strings. That’s all pairs, so:> e to a> a to d> d to g> g to b> b to eTry to do those all in time. Next, do three pairs:> e a d> a d g > d g b> g b e Then fours:> e a d g> a d g b > d g b eFinally both 5 string groups, and then all. Eventually, you will start to anticipate the minimal pressure needed.> I haven’t had a pick get stuck or fall out of my hands unless I’m drunk and sweaty
>>129405990I play my basses chest high as well after playing them way low all throughout my youth.There's nothing like assuming the sumo stance and making yourself as wide as possible while having a massive bass thumb against your chest.It'll only look nerdy if you already look nerdy.

Version 8 is really quite complex to learn if you want to really know how to use it. If you're just wanting to learn how to play song tabs from it then ya, just pirate it. You can even get portable versions.
>>129403945I used to do it by hand. It’s a lot of fun. I remember doing the bass part for “YYZ” and I was like, no shit, Geddy is slapping the pickups before the solo that ends on the harmonics.You can also ultra-hear stuff. Like, I had to pick out the bass on Killing is My Business, and I spent an hour trying to determine if Ellefson was doubling the guitar during the main riff. Then I spent even more time trying to hear where the fuck the timpanis were in Rattlehead. Zappa is a lot of fun to transcribe. I did all of Willie the Pimp, moved to Echidna’s Arf of You (nice metric modulation towards the end to 5/8 at 3:10). Finally, I tried my hand on The Black Page (from Live in NY) and I got most of the polyrhythms right. The biggest pan in the ass is rubato shit, hidden cues (like the stick click in Black Dog), overlapping instruments, understanding extended techniques on instruments (like lip slurs on trombone) or not having an instrument on hand to check pitches> again, piano is the superior instrument

Slung low is good is you’re just in it for the looks, but finding a way to boost up in the high register requires bracing it on your knee (annoying).

"I feel I've been misunderstood. My ideas i bring to the table are not in my own self interest but to increase the bands repritoire. i felt we didn't have enough material for the funky set. if i were truly interested in myself i'd simply front my own band instead i try to bring material for the band.My ideas on production is to elevate the art we have as a band and so we can gain more online listeners. I felt i could do a better job at production for with you so i decided to record the track on my own. i felt our recording missed the mark. I did this because i care about the art we make and especially a song i brought forth to the band.I feel unsatisfied because i feel the idea's i bring to the band could help us become more successful. I feel that im writing very strong ideas. I feel ignored. If anyone else in the band came up with their own song that fit the style we were going for, i would welcome it and be open to it if i felt it was a strong idea. we can write collectively but we can also write individually. It's about furthering our catalog.if this was all about myself i would look for studio musicians. instead i try to work with my friends and create gold.I feel the reason we haven't done well is we do not put enough time into arranging and rearranging our material. some songs are very repetitive, some songs have too many solo sections, some songs could use an extra section.i feel a reason we haven't done well at making fans is we do not connect with the audience enough by being memorable. our image and the way we appear and present ourselves matters too. This is why im considering wearing a tracksuit and shades to sell our "funky" image. it might sseem silly but its about leaving an impression. the worst thing you can do in music business is be forgettable.i have lots of ideas i think would help the band, and i do not plan on leaving unless i'm asked to

>>129408684with pick yesplaying with fingers though, my experience is i needed some time to get used to especially when it's fast like Geddy's lineor just immediately slap lol
>>129409590>more prone to squeakingjust don't press the string with your bow lmao, my violin fingering is still pretty shit but it didn't take long to figure out the perfect bow pressure.

>>129411078just take your time, i think you'll find as you start that your 2 fingers may not move as fast you want it to be (especially when it's skipping strings) but nothing practice can't solve

>>129411085Use the floating thumb method instead of just solely relying on posting up on the pickup. You should be able to do both, but floating thumb is cleaner for RH muting. For example, if you have to pedal on the low e or a, then posting on the low string or pickup makes sense. Floating thumb also is a better position if you want to switch to slap, palm mute, or play in a guitar-oriented fingerpicking fashion.

Been playing everyday for the last 20 or so years except for the last 3... really bad nerve issues. Please take care of you body bros.
Are Bassman 50’s one of the latest overhyped “slept on” vintage amps or are they actually good?
>>129411691>picrel>>129412377You keep calling it. But can you play it?>>129412618Nice>>129412650Damn ni/gg/a what happened? Had carpal tunnel syndrome but it recovered somehow with Keltican and wearing a wrist brace, just not 100%. Now I'm scared I'm having tendonitis or something, they feel sore on the left arm.
>>129412913Pinched nerve in the neck and ulnar tunnel in the arms. My fingers go numb and it hurts to grip the neck. I can feel pain shoot all the way up to my head. Shit sucks.
>>129412948it's all in your head
>>129412948dislocated my elbow a month ago, what the doctors like to call a "terrible triad" injury. fun times.
>>129412948Damn that sucks. Try and see a neurologist, though the prescription drug she gave me only helped with the nerve pain, I think the supplement Keltican helped with the recovery (just vit B complex and maybe some more shit in it). Good luck man hope you recover, but it won't be in weeks.

Are premium picks a scam?
>>129413435always
You get what you pay for
>>129413648cordy is annoying but not terrible. Also that is false you get more (bargain) or overpay (scam)
I lose so many regular picks i've never even considered buying premiums. I'd go bankrupt.

>>129409963Ricochet bowing (or bariolage)>>129409838 is fun as fuck, especially if you’re playing a showstopper like Orange Blossom Special:https://youtu.be/eCBdiutb-50?si=mLerg9gsECXtj0rXAs a gelatinous entity that shall not namefag, transferring violin and guitar techniques is really cool. For example, when was the last time you did left hand pizzicato on guitar? I’ve been trying to do that and adding hybrid picking to create things like call-and-response.Similarly, strumming a violin is a hoot. I think Sugarcane Harris does this on “Willie the Pimp” (they nerfed it in all available mixes).

i wonder what that meth comedown is feeling like this morning
Q: at what price point does a guitar just become a guitar, regardless of brand name?What I mean is, lower priced guitars will at some point carry all generic parts, the same parts the whole factory is using to build Epiphones, Guilds, Squiers, Gretsches, PRSs, etc... whereas at the higher end a Rickenbacker is uniquely a Rickenbacker, or a MIJ Gretsch has Gretsch-specific parts. At some point the brand name doesn't even matter, and you're getting the same outfit as another brand, just in a different shape.
one thing i noticed about the resident methhead is they used to post ai-images. you think they consult an LLM before posting to /gg/ and that's why it comes across as so schizofrenic?
>>129414540theres a spectrum all of the bottom end guitars play and feel essentially the same (regardless of yt shills and plebbit copers) and then its rising returns up to about 2-3k and then its diminished returns to 4k and then anything above that essentially feels the same (impeccable)
>>129414540>At some point the brand name doesn't even matter, and you're getting the same outfit as another brand, just in a different shape.always has been
>>129414537>>129414562What does this have to do with guitar?
>>129414596Cheap guitars are cheap whores: you can and should do everything you want to them. They’re more fun to mod and you can abuse them. Whereas some of the acoustic Martins I’ve played felt much better, but I’d start to think twice about bending the neck of slapping the body - all of which I require to reach climax.

>>129414845Thanks i love the color blue. Sounds good too. Had a jazzmaster last year, I loved it but I didnt want to he redundant so I got the tele.
Im running my guitar and my digitone through my bass amp, would the work goin through the effects loop of my guitar amp or would that be bad? Im fraidy scared to try because i dont wanna hear loud feedback

>>129415126is the jack on the guitar itself loose or is the grip it has on the jack loose?

floyd rose.What's the catch?
>>129415242Don’t
>>129415263Im rather asking why'd people buy it
>>129415242there's a few. >limited tuning flexibility without specified devices>need to learn to tune to equilibrium>cheap models with pot metal castings (most third party unbranded "LICENSED BY FLOYD ROSE" models) are dogshit>go out of tune when doing double stop bendsbut>excellent tuning stability when dialed in>fine tuning adjustment >can do all the wiggle waggle funny noises with wanglerbar (flutters, bombs, squeals)

I prefer the tone and feel of old strings
>>129415473I like fresh stringsI buy d'addario XS
>>129415473flatwounds age like fine wine
>>129415743that's because they already sound dull and muted fresh out of the package, so they really can't start sounding any worse
>>129415801skill issue
>>129415242
>>129415930it's physicsthey are naturally stiffer and thus have less harmonics
what riff is being played in the beginning, getting on my nerves a little hearing it all the time:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-uGsNk1_y8
>>129414251>filing my fret endsfucking zoomers and youtube, man. Never heard anyone even talk about 'feeling their frets' until maybe 4 years ago and I started playing in 1994. The 'fret ends' psy op is some of the gayest shit that ever unfolded in guitar culture
Singing is magnitudes easier than learning an instrument, just doing warm ups and pitch exercises will make you a better singer quickly.
>>129415987it's the beavis and butthead theme
Warm up is 24 permutations. Eighth notes at 80 bpm
>>129416021it is literally not that but okay
>>129415956what you said is actually backwardsdouble skill issue

why did flats lose out then?
prove that they did and then we can talk about it

>>129415378EXPLAIN YOURSELF>>129414778Nice. Overdub something to cover a few of the clams (intro and at :40)>>129415126Use a socket wrench on the outside nut. However, if it’s been loose for a while, you may need to resolder the poz/nig connections. Spray it out with a duster to get rid of any debris while you’re in there. Loctite is good if you plan to never change it out and the electronics are good, but use a minimal amount.>>129415473Corrosion will make them snap when you’re bending. Also, old strings kill your volume. And that green gunk deposits on your fretboard, making bending a slimey chore>>129416466If this true? I have a wrist injury that feels like my bones rub together and snag a tendon from time to time, and I notice when I hold heavy weights, the bones separate. >Could this be what I need?Where are my physical therapist ni/gg/a‘s at?
>bronze stringsMiss me with that gay shit

Is this a decent speaker?
if it was up your ass you'd know
>>129416563>fat>boring>can’t play
>>129416660>shoves shotgun barrel up your assguess what model shotgun it is, wrong answer and I'm pulling the trigger
I think I'd notice any speaker up my ass quality aside
>learn to play 10 leads of songs i like>learn to play 5 songs with chords>learn scalesThese are my 3 main goals for guitar as of right now. I would say learning songs with chords is going to be the biggest challenge. Going to actively avoid barring because it filtered me the first time around. I already know the lead to 2 songs by duster so thats already down to 8.
>>129416678classic mistake bucko im clenching get ready to get elmer fudded
>>129416693if you can't barre learn triads and how to turn those into 4 and 5 note chords
>>129416693you need to understand that playing chords is actually one of the hardest things technically speaking that you can do on guitar so you should expect it to take a year to nail transitions between very different chord shapes
>>129416742I think there was a triad shape that I tried before but I couldn't figure out how to move it up the fretboard without the bar >>129416851>yearI was expecting 2, if I hadn't given up I'd be at 6 months by now but that's in the past. I don't mind it taking a while I just couldn't see myself getting it down on the past. Now I'm more confident that I'll get it down. I really did just give up too quickly. I was expecting some things on guitar to be easier for me to grasp because of my time on bass. Did not go that way but I'm back on the horse.
>>129416902Godspeed Anon. Yeah the point was, everyone expects you to start there as a guitarist and which yeah it makes sense because you can make entire songs with 1-2 chords but as far as finger dexterity and muscle memory goes they are very complex shapes and transitioning from something from an open D to a B minor can be quite difficult. There are workarounds like playing the Bluegrass shape G so you can play the C and Fmaj7 with the same shape or using a capo so you only need to learn a few chords.
