How do I realistically play like Prince? He was the best guitarist, btw.
>>129796944he has that one "while my guitar gently weeps" performance but where in his discography does he utilize this
>>129796944You have to start be learning the blues, and not just blues scales, but you must truly understand the blues, only then can you begin to understand the core of Prince's playing

What’s the deal with Jazz III picks?They’re so small!You don’t hold it you pinch a rumor of a pick.Who decided this was enough plastic?Did they run out mid-manufacturing?“Eh, give ’em the rest let’s see if they notice.”And guitar players swear by them.“Oh, it’s more precise.”Yeah, because if you drop it, it’s gone forever.You’re not playing guitar anymoreyou’re searching the floor like a detective.And why is it called Jazz III?Where are Jazz I and II?Did they not make it?Was this the third attempt to convince people this tiny thing works?You try to strum with it forget it.It’s like brushing your teeth with a toothpick.But the guys who use it?They love it.“Once you get used to it…”Yeah, once you train your fingers to hold nothing, it’s fantastic!

Hey I'm Hard Rock Joe and I'm a little disappointed in all the negativity in these threads lately haha, this place used to be full of kick ass riffs and rock and roll attitudes, now its all corpo bullshit and selling yourself out to the man, I just want the rock and roll back dudes! haha maybe we're all just in a slump but I just get the vibe that the simpatico is off now. haha rock on dudes!
of all guitarists that eventually inspired me to use my thumb to fret, it's the Kirinji's rhythm guitarist/vocalist that barely plays his guitar when he's singing. chords like E/G#, G/A are easier to do now
>>129799412who the fuck is this guy

You should get yourself a baritone acoustic
>>129799596You know what I think I just might.
>>129799596I've considered it before but I've never run in to a demo that seemed particularly inspirational and there's a zero percent chance any local store would have one to try myself.
>>129799596I don’t think Martin style acoustics are very conducive to the lower registers; acoustic bass guitars sound awful. or maybe the upright double bass just sounds too good
All of your guitars and basses disappear and can only own guitars and basses from one company for the rest of your life. You cannot borrow or trade or try out any other brand, you are stuck with your choice forever. What do you choose?
>>129799763Gibson
>>129799763Amazon Basics
>>129799763For electrics I’d like Fender, but I hate Fender acoustics. For acoustics I’d like Martin but no electrics. So it’d be Gibson because they’re my second favorite acoustics and I like most of their electrics. If not Gibson then Yamaha.

>>129796948I think the Purple Rain solo is top tier 2bh. Dude played with feeling, which is more than you can say for most meme guitarists.
>>129801955It's why I have a Strat, Tele and White Falcon. Proper comfy geetars lad
>>129802022I came to the conclusion a while back that there's really no need for a compressor on a board if you're setting up your tone properly. If anything you'll get more from a boost than a compressor in nearly all scenarios.
>>129799893Sounds like a waltz oasis
>>129799782>Fender acousticsSingle worst acoustic I ever owned was a fender. Sounded awful and had poor tuning stability. My favourite acoustic is some budget brand called Tanglewood, feels actually robust unlike most of the higher tier acoustics. I do like borrowing my mates big body Martin tho
>>129799763Guild. They make enough knock offs that I can find anything to fit any scenario I suppose.If we're talking the mainstream companies, gonna have to be Fender.
These guitar guys, they’re picky! One guy spent two hours moving his amp an inch at a time. I said, “What are you doing?” He said, “Chasing tone.” I said, “Maybe it’s hiding at a job interview!”My friend’s pedalboard is so big he needs a roadie just to go to the living room.I knew a guitarist who bought a $400 overdrive pedal. He keeps it off — says he likes the idea of it.These tone chasers, they don’t even play songs anymore. They just play the same chord and nod at it like it told a good joke.I saw a guitarist arguing with a sound guy for 30 minutes. The crowd left, the band left… they’re still arguing. I think they’re starting a podcast.Guitar players talk about “transparent overdrive.” For that price, the pedal better disappear and do my taxes!My buddy says he can hear the difference between maple and rosewood fretboards. I can’t even hear when he starts the song.A guitarist told me, “Tone is in the fingers.” Then he bought six pedals just in case the fingers don’t show up.
Thoughts on the Bass VI for a bass gig? Gimmick? Something that will piss of the other guys in the band?

so how do you set up a guitar? my mustang has really high action and it feels like the action is super low at the headstock but high on the other side so..
>>129802510YouTube it
>>129799202they don't desu, it's more the white notes like b,c,e,f that are tricky as there's no black note to feel for. it's probably bad hand posture to play right up into the accidental keys but whatever, but that's how I did it.
Let talk about the BOSS Metal Zone. tOOL USES ONE i THINK..
is THE BOSS OS2 over or underrated??
How long is it acceptable to sit in a guitar shop trying out the guitars before it's rude to not buy anything
>>129803041as long as you want if it’s one day. if you come back multiple days that’s when it’s annoying. I used to work at GC and some dude would come in just to practice and take up one of the amps for 5 hours every day I had to eventually kick him out. there are so few cables and amps to try out because everyone steals them
>>129803081to add to that very few of the shitty things GC doesn’t make sense but mexicans beating up guitars, people not knowing what baritone guitars are and breaking them, downtuning guitars and not tuning them back, and people playing so loud the workers and customers can’t even hear eachother talking was a multiple times daily occurrence. If you think it’s haha funny then that’s your prerogative, but when you complain that the guitar store is shit or you can’t find anyone to check you out in electronics in Walmart because they spend all day digging bologna someone threw back on the shelf halfway across the store you only have yourself to blame. try them all out all day, narrow it down to two, sleep on it, then come back the neck day and play them both for a couple of hours then decide. you can pay like $50 and put them both on hold for a day or whatever then just use that money towards paying for it
which lower standard tuning will give me some kino open chords?
Is the Taylor 214 the point of diminishing returns? A youtuber I watch recommended it and I'm ready to buy one that I'll keep for life. It's either the 200 series or the 300 series, 400 is way too expensive and well past that point I'm sure
>gaylor
>>129803164What would you recommend then? Acoustic, I intend to keep it for life, about 1200-1500 shekelOpen to suggestions
>>129799318Like Satriani's Endless Rain (Endless Pain) exercise.
I want a flying v but i hear they never stay in tune. Do any anons have an opinion on this? I would most likely keep it tuned in drop c. Picrel is the one I am thinking about.
>>129803181The highest price Yamaha Red Label you can afford all day every day, especially used.
>drop cI think this is more your style pal
>>129803229Speaking of Yamaha, what do you think of the transacoustic series? I haven't tried it but the idea is appealing to me. Only thing that discourages me is that Yamahas are looked down upon no? I shouldn't care what others think but still
>>129803235nah i play doom metal
>>129803243Yamahas are only looked down on my unknowers who still think they’re some budget brand. Yamaha has been making guitars for many many years and they range from solid entry level to absolute top tier professional level. Pick the one in your budget and it’ll beat any of its competition at that price point up until the $2k+ mark when it evens out.
>>129797658maybe the dunlop ultex sharp picks? they feel pretty similar to me
>>129803257where do you even start with that genre? I don't like the try hard shit.
>>129803301You start by being 13 years old
>>129803333okay but seriously I've only listened to a couple of led zep and black sabbaths debut where do I go?
>>129797658I wanted a change from Jazz Ultex III and bought a variety of D'addario picks which i prefer now
>>129803301I like Saint Vitus and The Obsessed for standard doom. But outside of that checkout Electric Wizard, DopeThrone, Weedeater, and Ramesses.
>>129800993Tanned maple neck does it for me but i've never liked sunburst finish
>>129803181best out of the box sounding guitar in that range is the Yamaha fg5 imo or whatever the concert version is
>>129802022I used to. I might start using it again, idk. I like a decent amount of compression for a clean funk style sound.
my acoustic is $200yes i'm poorthank you for reading
>>129803385That’s ok. My main acoustic was a cheapo $100 garage sale find no name for like 15 years before buying a Gibson. If it sounds fine it’s good enough.
>>129802209Excuse me: https://youtu.be/KDVKaE_yg0U
>>129802148I have one, id say as long as youre practiced and confident in it youre good. There's definitely some good uses for the 6 strings
>>129803381Im getting one and im not sure where to put it in my chain, either up front or at the end i recon >>129802039I don't think so. Im talking about like having a limiter on stuff to even out the dynamics not the frequencies as an eq would
>>129803500Up front is the usual advice. Pre-gain, pre-modulation, pre-reverb/delay. If you've got a wah, I think most people put it after the wah.
Finnaly got some bass overdrive and distortion I am happy with.https://voca.ro/1j25rE7TsNHv
>>129798662that's the shit that leaked, you can watch them on Efukt. Apparently he had tons of vids where he shat on them and did other stuff, it's just the piss and fart video with the hooker and the bath tub that leaked from the police seizure.Chuck was a fucking coomer degenerate
gain? overdrive? distortion? I just want to play for god's sakes!
>>129803662>Chuck was a fucking coomer degenerateI still give him a pass for that, all things considered.
>>129799763Ibanez
I sure hope the deltoluxe concert don't get discontinued by the time I've got space to have one
>>129802148won't have enough low end to actually fill a proper bass spot in a mix so you'll either have to get some eq pedal and boost the shit out of it or just buy some cheap shortscale bass.If you want to hear what a bass VI listen to the first three seconds of Wichita Lineman and decide for yourself wether you want to sound like that.
>>129796944listen to the Mary Jane Girls
>>129803272the problem is Yamaha and Ibanez make their $6k instruments look exactly the same as their budget $250 stuff.Obviously the quality will be different, but customers and especially newbs/normies will be as uninpressed of a $4k revstar as they would be about the $400 version because they look almost exactly identical.Fender and Squire at least have different labes on the headstock but Yamaha is Yamaha on all of them.
>>129803768I would argue the Ibanez stuff looks worse. I like the inlays on the Yamaha FG9
>>129803779ugly or pretty is up to the beholder, but pic related for example is 5 grand, would someone who is not deeply familiar with Yamaha know that this guitar mogs most of Taylor and Martins if they were to see it?
>>129803272bruh I play EPIPHONE what the FUCK are you saying???
>>129803809no and they probably wouldn’t even admit it if they heard it. listen to some demos of the Yairi DYM70. best sounding acoustic guitar on the market and they’re like $3000 and nobody has ever heard of them
>>129803809this one costs less than 10% of the expesive one but probably looks more expensive to normies just due to the fact that it's got binding all around.
telecurious anon hereim fucking impressed, but it is heavy as shit, though.the fretwork is perfect, tuners needed a little tightening and working in.i was just buying it to see how a telecaster felt, now im thinking ill find some lipstick pickup or whatever and put in it and keep it.
>>129803841the only bad thing I have to say about HB is that their cheap tuners that the guitars come with are dogshit.Funnily, the HB tuners they sell for a fraction of the branded ones are just as solid, I don't know why they just don't equip their instruments with them straight away and raise the price by the 20 bucks that they cost instead. HB and Sire have absolutely set the standard for guitars in the sub 500 bucks category, nothing else comes close.
what’s a couple of good songs to learn to get started with making music in open D min?
>>129803865hmm, we will find out in a couple of days if the tuners drift a lot and need to be replaced.
>>129799763Unironically Yamaha.
>>129803226Huh? If the nut is cut and dressed properly there's no reason why it should...
>>129803344buy a trucker hat and watch Dude Where's My Car
>>129803914man, fuck pacificas
>>129803876I bought pic related back in 2021 and it was absoluteyl immaculate out of the box, but the tuners almost made me return it. I put some of my spare Warwick tuners in because I have Gotohs on my much more expensive Warwick and the HB has been right next to it on the rack since then. I could not be happier with that thing, it's absolutely insane how fucking good it feels and sounds alongside all the shit it features. To think that i almost got rid of it because of tuners makes me shake my head nowadays.I've tried some of their other stuff since then and it is always the fucking tuners where I find something to complain about.
>>129803950chrome hardware looks always better than black, as well.>>129803876the problem my shitty stock tuners had where that you could almost do a quarter turn on them before they actually started tuning, and the winding ration felt like it was 1 to 1 like on a headless guitar, zero precision.Funnily I never had tuning stability problems but the actual tuning was so finicky and just felt so cheap that it almost ruined the instrument for me.
>>129804003winding ratio was meh, yes. too much. about precision i turned them all like 20 times just to work stuff in and didnt really have any problems, though we will see if they start drifting like mad while on the wall..but new tuners are cheap anyways so, i think its worth it even if you end up having to shill out for new tuners.
https://voca.ro/13a5LVka1RYb
>>129804056like I said, you can even buy the actualy harley benton tuners, they're dirt cheap and just as solid as the expensive gotoh etc. stuff.I find it funny that they are clearly not equipping their own guitars with their own hardware.The only hardware I would not buy from them is their security strap locks, I would not risk dropping my instrument because I spent 8 bucks on HB rather than 30 on Schallers. But their 40 dollar tuners are just as good as 100 dollar gotohs.
>>129803875so do you guys not play or what
>>129804077yeah fuck it, ill get some harley benton tuners next order if these do not measure up over time. i DO have some leftover yamaha ones, but they are the two pin-type, which means i would be left with an extra screw hole on each tuner not used for anything and i would be too assbothered by it.>>129804120we only buy guitars to hang them on the wall, anon. where do you think you are?

One time I left my band on my own accord because they kept wanting to play lame ska-ish stuff and that’s just not for me. I wrote 90% of our lyrics, more than half of the music, and would compose all the music ideas people had into workable songs but refused to write lame ska stuff so I left. They got really upset because they relied on me to do my stuff and when I left they had a hard time being happy with the results they were getting doing it themselves and honestly it sucked because it tore my small friend group in two because I wasn’t being “supportive” of the bands’ vision even. I lost friends but I still refuse to play lame ska pop punk stuff. >>129804241How big was his cock?

>>129804057nice. It sounds like you are trying to play it a bit faster than you are comfortable with. just a touch forced, but awesome.
>>129804612Yeah it’s a bitch https://gametabs.net/tabs/ducktales-2/bermuda-triangle
its crazy how from one angle music is simple as ABC, and from another its an eldritch shape defying all understanding
>>129804917Depends on the music
>>129804917Playing with friends I used to do drugs with>Do something like "baWOA dada vummmmm.."Playing with friends who went to Berkley>Could you not just give me a major or minor voicing there? I’m begging you to approach it with a little more harmonic literacy. What I’m actually hearing is something like a densely colored upper-structure sonority.. maybe a Cmaj13(#11, add9) over an E in the bass, but voiced with enough spatial discretion that it doesn’t collapse into conservatory sludge. Keep the third understated, let the major seventh breathe, and for the love of god don’t make the sharp eleven sound decorative; it should function as a kind of suspended intellectual tension, like the chord itself has read Adorno once and become impossible to enjoy casually. I want it to sound less like you’re ‘playing a chord’ and more like you’re revealing a temporary architecture of griefI like the ABC guys better. But the educated one probably sees himself as an ABC guy, huh?

So, I am thinking that I was being quite economical when I went with a Classic Vibe and a Frontman 10G. Buyer's remorse isn't really the name for what I've got, because I'm happy with the guitar... I was just considering how much I would enjoy a Stratocaster whammy bar... I'm thinking I want to get D'Addario Chromes Flatwound 13s strung up, because I might tune Eb Standard every once in a while, and I think it would help my tremolo picking if my strings were very heavy.If you've been keeping up with my posts recently, I was interested in compensated titanium saddles, but I think I'll just go with the brass ones. I would like to enjoy her Nyatoh body wood and Laurel fretboard. The steel saddles that come stock are nice, and even without top of the line gear, I get Tele sounds out of the bridge pickup. It's a real steal. $740 Canadian and I like it better than the Player Telecaster I had for a while.The Classic Vibe Telecaster bridge plate, with the edges there--- not lowered or cut; it feels really natural to rest a finger or two upon while picking.Honestly, I am very happy with my purchase, but I don't get along well with roundwound strings... particularly lighter ones at that. I used to get that pins and needles and goosebumps reaction to running nails over metal ridges. It gave me "the heeby jeebies". So I can not seem to fully feel comfortable playing her, but this guitar has exceeded my expectations. I got over my 21-fret stigma recently and I'm just floored with the enjoyment of the thing; as art or room furniture, are as a playable instrument.I'm not particularly sentimental about things like this at the moment, but I named her... so I feel a relation.

>>129805770why does it look like it has vitiligo
buyers remorse? what's that?
>>129804319It was average, about 5 inches. Had a nice curve it though that hit spots others haven't. Only guy i've let finish in me.
>>129805646>I quit drugsGood work. Great work, actually. I applaud you for getting into that kind of self preservation and care.>now I'm full on into shopping addiction.Yeah, window shopping is my thing.>What gear/music things can I buy?If you want my honest truth, you should set a budget, like a $100-200 range, and just look at every electric guitar that you can afford new. Once you see one that you really like, maybe double check its 'used' availability.If you want a new guitar amp, I like my silly little Frontman 10G. It is surprisingly versatile, and has aux in and phones out. Marshall MG10G is another cheap one with a bold tone.If you have a nice enough place, I suggest going with the Fender '65 Princeton Reverb. It will get you into clean electric sound territory really quick. Deluxe Reverbs are nice too.Fender-- Telecaster, Stratocaster, Jazzmaster, Jaguar, Mustang, Duo-Sonic Gibson-- Les Paul Standard, SG Standard, ES-330, ES-335, Les Paul Special... Marauder, S-1 PRS-- Mira, Starla, Silver Sky
>>129805770sound https://voca.ro/19fqmzqszh77
>>129805793Tremolo picking sounds like shit with flats borther. Flatwound strings, especially heavy gauge, are boomy and dull sounding and thats fine for some styles. Thomastik jazz swings are a good choice if you want something less boomy. I think they're a more balanced string both in tone and tension. I like chromes but only use them for vintage style Jazz because they're so bassy ,also they're extra wide so you will for sure need to have your nut filed.

>>129806250They have their place, there is a certain thuddiness they have that you cant really get with roundwounds. You mostly hear that in pre-70s jazz though. Love that sound but really only use it in this one stylehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Sku2S3JOoc
how many anons in this thread are jazz pilled or is it just the autism leaves guy
>>129806476who?
>>129806476I used to play jazz for most of my life, but a cat got burnt out on it, dig. Too many trannies and this new wave of tiktok band kids in my local scene. The whole Smalls scene you know what I mean. It's like they watched whiplash once and based their entire lives around it. It just dont hit the same no more.
>>129806270It’s the literal exact same pedal but with two other pedals included.
>>129806539>trannies and this new wave of tiktok band kidsin jazz? neither of these groups strike me as capable of playing or enjoying it
>>129806600https://youtu.be/E1HHKGlBugA
>>129806590Lmao no it isn't. I wouldnt own both if they were the same. Why speak on something you know nothing about? Does it make you feel important?
>>129806691you own both because you had a bd-2 and got memed into the waza version
>>129806691How is it different then?
>>129806600Yes they're everywhere in the east coast jazz scene. Most shows feel like LGBT events these days. Not that I even care too much, jazz has always been liberal, but these kids went too far with it. It's just not my type of crowd anymore and I'm not even that old, can't imagine how the old heads feel.I started to get burnt out when I was playing in the same circles as people like thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4kdqcrCRZ2Y

>>129806714It's the exact same circuit he's full of it
How do electricfags cope with the fact that there will never be popular music centered around their instrument ever again and they'll be relegated to adding texture to songs.Acoustic Aryans stay winning.
>>129806895Why is fender only marketing to fags like that in the picture I swear every ad they have is extreme feminine energy and lazy clean sounds
Acousitckek projection is funny
>>129806714>>129806856They use different BBD chips. The new one is a copy and doesn't sound the same. There is a noticeable difference between a made in japan ce-2 and the ce-2w ce/standard mode. The ce-2 is warmer, more mid heavy and shaves off a little high end. It's the exact "dreamy" chorus you hear in 80s recordings. Waza ce-2 adds highs/sparkle and the effect itself more subtle. There isn't a single waza pedal on the market that is an exact recreation of the older models, they all have their differences.
How long until I can play classic 50s-60s country songs?

is flatpicking retarded or based
>>129807039>not musically complicatedPiano certainly is and Guitar is easy to play once you get past open & barre chords, both shouldn't take you long to learn and I seriously have no idea how people take so long to learn it if you just practice 30 minutes a day.I started playing last year at 24 and a year later I'm immensely better even though I've never practiced that much
