Got my first guitar.
What does these knobs n switch do? It's a used guitar and didnt come with a manual. I think the inner knob is master volume, but I can't tell about the other.

who knows

Rescuing the thread.

>>130068352
that's an attack knob and the switch controls gain levels

phaser, harmonic tremolo, uni-vibe?

>>130068423
For me it’s the harmonic tremolo

>>130068408
I think the inner knob controls the gain, volume goes up n down when twisting it. I cant tell what the other two are doing though, but something is changing when I twist the outer knob back n forth mid note

forgot to link the prior thread >>130050863

>>130068485
uh it shouldn't be doing that, they probably got the wires crossed when they intonated the pickguard
you need to take it back to the shop and demand that they do a proper setup on it

They look OK. It would be better to have something with a 10" or 12" speaker

I already have a 12" tube amp, but I need something way smaller for practicing.

>>130068905
I hear thats the best one but why not get studio monitors?

>>130069019
Ah, gotcha. Seems to be good, then. I couldn't practice on headphones and would need something like that at minimum.

Some of them have a loop station and you can use them as an interface. That's pretty nice me thinks

Because amps are more fun-o-fun

Are 5 string basses even worth it?

>>130069089
Because signal needs to go to the sound card, get digitalized, sent to pc then spend time in whatever god awful creation microsoft shat out, then go trough daw, and then out trough speakers. It makes latency while amp just werks. You might say latency doesnt matter but it does no matter how small especially when you are practicing for hours, it gets to you.
Also booting up the PC, DAW or whatever is 10x more annoying than just hitting the switch on the amp.

Are 2 string basses even worth it?

get an octave pedal. boom. you got your bass.

here in this voca he plays a weird altered version of metallicas master of puppets where he adds extra beats to the measure at random while the bass frequencies of his guitar rape your eardrums violently

>https://voca.ro/11D8dLt3nlP7
in this one he starts out playing a repeating 2 bar e minor pentantonic phrase on a bass guitar with the worst audio quality you have ever heard. after about 2 repetitons of this phrase a guitar arpeggiating what sounds to be an E minor add9 chord comes in with the bass in the most sloppy and out of time attempt at music ever seen. and after a few bars of this it then leads to a solo where he runs up and down the scale while also still being completely out of time with the bass and then it ends.

>https://voca.ro/1k7gPf2IfBpw
here he can be heard playing sloppily lead guitar over a mario kart-esque fusion backing track while being completely out of key for the majority of the time. not much else interesting happens.

There are 6 possible permutations for three notes on a single string, defined by the ascending and descending finger directions: 1-2-3, 1-3-2, 2-3-1, 2-1-3, 3-2-1, and 3-1-2. These patterns serve as "variables" to break out of rigid scale positions and improve fretboard fluency by varying picking techniques like legato, alternate picking, and economy picking.

I've been taking lessons for 8 months and I'm at a point where my teacher is slowing me how to compose short solos focusing on basic harmony and melody principles using the major and blues scales; and focusing on syncopation. It feels so nice because it produces very different (and interesting) phrases than the ones I just came up with when I just noodled licks and scales.

>>130071907
To a certain extent, yeah. So far is giving me good results. I'm having difficult increasing speed though, he says I get real nervous and that's holding me back, that I need to play with more "intent". This led me to implement subtle changes like holding my pick more tight, focusing on relaxing my right hand workout or missing strength and form; and most importantly get more aggressive with the metronome increments.

I posted my recently acquired Blackface Fender Bassman with it’s corresponding 2x15 a while ago, I’ve been on a list to get it fully refurbished by a Fender authorized repair center for a few months now, but today I called and had a small discussion and they want me to get two things done before they look at it.

- Get it professionally fumigated (R.I.P. termites).
- Get it professionally cleaned (due to the odor of rat piss).

The first should be simple enough, but I have no clue how I’d be able to get this thing cleaned. That shit has to have soaked into the wood and tolex and everything, oh in case you’re wondering the odor is only coming out of the head, the cabinet doesn’t reek of it.

Does anybody know what I can do? As it stands I’m $200 in the hole having bought this, and the most I’d like to spend in the end is around $1000.

When I was a kid and a teen getting into playing guitar and bass, I fell for the stupid memes of "whoa, tonewood" and "whoa amps" and "whoa feel and soul and muh tone". Once I learned to actually write, record and mix decently enough, I unretarded myself because electronics don't care about the wood you place them in, and if it sounds good, it sounds good. Just because it says "retarded old american company" on the headstock doesn't make it automatically better than "retarded new asian brand".

It's depressing to see grown men still fall for the fucking wood and brand meme. Every guitar is just another product.

>>130073246
it's about the slander, mods are fine with the act

First of all forget having "Licensed Fender Repair" fix it and take it to a decent local tech. That Bassman circuit is one of the more simple circuits (relatively) to work on.

>>130073398
Wood makes a difference with acoustics for sure. It makes no difference with electronic guitars once you plug them in, and electronic guitars are where you see all of the marketing faggotry about "muh mahogany" and "muh basswood" etc.

>>130073430
That, too. You can get a quality guitar that'll last you forever at around 1200 to 1500 bucks, and the 1500 ballpark is only really necessary if your output justifies it. Everything else is just branding and hyper-emotional wank. You're better off investing in good recording gear or gear for playing live instead.

>>130073457
>If you mean tube vs digital it's true and was even more true when you were a kid, digital was ass then and has come a long way

Does anyone else suck at learning simple open position chord based songs? It all kind of blends together and I have to listen very closely and it takes me a really long time to figure out for how easy it is to play. I'm not completely tone deaf, I can learn riffs and leads decently well by ear. Am I just crazy?

The body wood on a solid body is minmally resonant, it wont matter to the amplified sound as long as the pickups are still in the same spot. The wood of the NECK however, different story. Dont take my word for it, try swapping maple and rosewood on a fender.

This is fucking retarded, the electronic signal is not going to be affected by a 1/8" strip of wood laid over the actual structural parts of the neck. There are all aluminum guitar necks and the difference is so minimal that you can easily chalk it up to the slight variation in fretting and picking dynamics. https://youtube.com/shorts/MRgVvs5s1mM?si=nUudR_MGHbRRfd7f

I hope you enjoy your Rick bass, there’s a fretless one from the 70s about half an hour away but I don’t need a $2000 bass and I don’t need a frettless bass but man Rick basses are cool

This tone is so fucking good. I think i might replace my p bass with this. I prefer the sustain.

>>130074580
Oh I didn't realize you wanted to put a lighter set of strings on it. Godspeed, Black Rick Anon.

>>130074814
Yeah I have been plotting on getting a rick for a while now and I'm very happy with it. I have some chrome flats to put on it tomorrow. If they can get the fret buzz to stop im going to get the 4001. In the summer I will downtune the 4001 so I can use it for drop A-C#. I have my music man for rounds in standard tuning.

that being said, through windows it's dookie unless you are using AISO drivers and direct output.

IMO tone knobs make more sense as an internal bias pot. I dial them once on all my guitars (usually between 7 to 9) then never touch them again.
>>130070765
>extra range
these only exist for hamhands that sharp out from a neck death grip. literal skill issue, the bridge.

>>130075200
tone knobs are really good for bass it’s all the frequencies you do or don’t want at one control.

What's the deal with mixing? I have no experience in it so am I fucked when I record tracks or can it all be done post-recording?

>>130075276
>can it all be done post-recording?
if the recording is decent (not distorted/clipping beyond intentional distortion)

>>130075276
as long as you record the different parts to different tracks

are rickenbackers actually good or are they a meme guitar like mustangs and telecasters?

Also I would be replacing my p bass with the Rick so I'd sell it tomorrow with the guitar im returning. I'm pretty sure the guitar, amp, pedals and the 100 down payment i have on the aquatone will cover majority of the cost.

Got a mooer yellow compressor for my cheap bedroom board. It's really nice, pretty subtle and just what I needed. I think it helps out a little with the distortions on the valeton, which I'm inevitably just gonna take off my board. It's a good unit for what I paid for, but I feel I have out grown it. It seems to me a zoom multi stomp would probably be the best thing to cover mods/delay and reverb in my fx loop. I don't know about distortion though. I got a pure sky overdrive because I wanted something transparent. Maybe a DS1? Or are there any good clones that do anything interesting that worth checking out?

>>130075346
That is what I plan to do
Unfortunately won't be able to record drums or bass or whatever so those will have to be plugins unless I hire session musicians which I don't want to do because of money

noob here. just bought a stratocaster. I'm on day 4 of trying to learn. and i am following the absolutely understand guitar with scotty west. it's really good. i like his teaching style. right now im trying to learn the chromatic scale stuff. and it's pretty cool. it's just difficult to push the strings down. and accidentally hitting the string next to it and it sounds dead. but i'm sure ill get better.

i think i want to learn to play classical and flamenco style at some point. but right now, i am enjoying learning the basics. no particular goals. maybe learn some music theory?

>>130076942
>gretsch fan seething about gibson

>>130077794
if that’s your goal I would get into a classical program straight away. you’ll learn everything else by doing that and not doing so just wastes time. if you don’t enjoy your practice you’ll be more like to quit. just my two cents

composition was too busy but just at first it doesn't ease into anything when you start at 10 there is no where to go but down

>>130077794
most new players press too hard its not about the pressure its about correct placement, the force needed to fret is less than you'd use to type on a keyboard.

For me practice is a waste of time, I've got god given natural talent I can play any piece without even hearing it.

>>130081331
a good teacher should be able to understand where you are struggling and how to relay information in your learning style so you learn more effectively. they should also be able to teach you in a very linear and logical progression and get you learning songs right away instead of drilling techniques as nauseum. if you can’t find a good irl teacher, take a look at the classical guitar shed website. their woodshed program is pretty good

I think i will go to the local shop and at least see if they can fix that Rick they have. If i can get it for 1600 then I'll get my flats put on my rick today. If not I'll wait until next week to get the flats. I am really pumped about these ricks. The 4003S pickups work great with my setup. The reason I was keeping the music man was so I had something with rounds that work with my distortion. I can't get the downtune done, so the goal is flats on my 4003s and a 4001 today.

>Your composition?
Yeah, I'm a beginner (~7- months with instructor) as a part of the weekly assignments his asks me to come up with a short composition (comping + solo) implementing new concepts learned during last session. In this case was using a mix of major and blues scale over a major chord progression.
>As for critique you can play
I would say is mostly on time (has many tie notes for syncopation), but you are right, I have some issues switching between triplet and straight feel
>right pitches better
yup, still working on this, desu I'm kind of afraid of bending on lower frets (3-6) from the high E string, I feel it's gonna snap any time.

Overall I have a feel I could let the notes ring more cause sometimes they sound choppy, any tips on this? when I'm playing to a meetronome I feel so rushed but when I hear it back is sounds so slow.
