>>130431045no lies detected lmao, what a gay instrument
>>130431072thats why you go to jams learn how to play with other people and improve your skills. tonight was a pretty good night.
>>130430998Playing while standing is very difficult, so that's why Billie should be sitting on my face.
>>130430998she looks like the kind of girl who would be REAAALLY good at sucking dick
>>130430998nepo baby
>>130431123luv me sum geezer butler
>>130430998i always thought billie was a tranny, just seemed like a man.anyways, check out slopsmith, anons. its rocksmith but better.
>>130431171most are these days.
>>130431092Didn't you say everyone at these jams hates you? I'd much rather stay home alone.
>>130431045I own multiple of both, what now
>>130431092I've been meaning to go to the local weekly jam but it hasn't worked out in half a year FUCK
>>130431092The gigachad Strat vs the permavirgin ExtraSissy 335
>>130431388the original stratocaster vs the generic hollowbody
>>130431394More like geriatric hollowbody because the only people who play them are old people or young people with the health problems of old people
>>130431214yeah but you're posting here so you already got light blue/pink pilled years ago
>>130431400
>>130431411Yep only old people go to court or young people with old people’s mental problems go to court
you can only take 2 picks for the gig, what are you grabbin?
>>130431133I want her mom to tell me to embrace eternity.
>>130431425this guy thinks Gibson is a dude, like a single guy
>masterbuilt>spelling errorsGibson would never
>>130431426Jazz 3 and the Tortex version of it
>>130431440>orville gibson isn’t a dude who directly handed the keys to his kingdom a line of dudes until it eventually arrived to Cesar, also a dude
>>130431472>doesn't mention Mel, Henry, William, or Debbie
>have to drive down to the city today >kind of want to check out guitar shops>don’t want to spend money>don’t want to see something I really like and be tempted to spend money >don’t want to be heeb’d with a low trade in value>won’t go to any guitar shops
>>130431489why would you need 2?
>>130431489Just go, noodle some Bloose, play Wonderwall and then leave again
What’s the deal with people listing their used guitars for like at least 2x more than the normal going rate and just letting them sit there listed for years? It’s just a way for them to attempt to show off that they’ve got it?
>>130431489>pictureJust checked the datasheets, the OP07's slew rate is still more than adequate for full-range voltage swings well beyond the range of human hearing, not that guitar signals even make full use of it. The LM308 does technically have a higher slew rate, yes, but I rarely find myself mixing audio in the megahertz range.
>>130430998More like titty Tuesday
>>130431632this aint the milf thread kid get a move on

Where can I learn how to write songs?
>>130432164School
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQtIe9azt-4RICK BEATO is ROCK music really BACK?
>>130432164Learn other people's songs, analyze them, see what you like and what you don't like. And most importantly, WRITE. Practice makes perfect, everyone has to get a few shitters out of their system before getting to the good stuff
Do I spend my evening learning another Takanaka piece or do I play vidya games?https://voca.ro/1mUEkHrPPcUV
>>130432252How do you write down what you wrote?
>>130432291Whatever works for you to remember how it went, bonus points if it's in a format that the musicians who will play it with you can understandFor me, it's leadsheets and tabs
>>130432231translation: rock music has come BACK down the pipe of things I am paid to talk about
I closed this tab for a day and I was mentally sound
>>130432252it helps to have a teacher. not everything about how a song is written is obvious. you can imitate, but a teacher can help you understand things in a way that lets you re-use them better. like tracing vs. learning techniques from studying reference material
>>130432543Just watch breakdowns from reputable Youtube channels like Rick Beato (tm)
been through so many geetar/amy/pedals combos over the years, forgot what I like most
>>130432660sad
>>130430998uhhhh i thought /gg/ was based? why is this diarrhea the OP?
>>130432693true, think it's p90s and a fender amp
>>130432660Comp -> Wah -> Rat -> EQ -> any clean ampChorus + Reverb + Delay in FX loop to tasteAll you could ask for and more
>>130432711prefer od/fuzz before wah, but you need a good wah, rmc10 was my favourite
>>130432721Fair, the order is a matter of taste>good wahIt's a variable band pass, what amazing features other than a Q control could it possibly have

Bros... I think I like it
>>130432782WTF is that nigger?
>>130433049why the humbucker tho?
>>130433075It's a natural thing that when I make a sound I take a regular note and move it all around. You can shake it up fast or take it nice and slow. Everybody, just listen to my vibrato:NEEOWEEOWEEOWEE
>>130432776the reason electric guitar took off is it was more vocal than any other instrument at the time. people believed guitar amplifiers were possessed by demons because they sounded like they were singing
>>130433049>no intonation and loose wraparound>guitar flat as a pancake no les paul beef for strong players>they had time for binding but not for better inlays>little chunk of body in the way of the upper fretsat least it looks cool
>>130432694it's a piss take anon.
>>130433161Now that you mention it, this is really annoying. Not even epiphone does this shit. It's the same neck tenon in theory, isn't it.
How to clean the fretboard? It's very dirty.
>>130433116I recognize that reference. Paul Gilbert has some funny songs even when he's popular mostly from his shreddy days. Everybody use your goddamn turn signal was hilarious to me being a pet peeve of mine.
>>130433297I'm happy someone got itKnocking On A Locked Door is also pretty funny.
>>130433241it was a needlessly pissy post. idk if you'll even notice it. #Gibson4lyf
>>130433328>Was knocking on a dude's door for a week>still insisting on pestering afterwards but now on the 2nd floorSisypheanAlso Miles Kennedy does sound close to Freddy MercuryCool album, listening to it again
>>130433615That's Paul's mate Freddy Nelson though
>>130429621Nice job on the cover. I'll play around with the amp settings. Hopefully I can get the hang of playing songs like this. For whatever reason I find tremelo picking metal way way easier.

>>130434781i think its funny that another anon got a better 335 than yours and you threw a fit and left immediately afterwards
>>130434111I just want to rice out my planks and whips okay
>>130434825i am envious of his block inlays but i dont really like a flametop on a 335. makes sense on the les paul tho.if he got a 355 i would be furious.
>>130429621Also this is what I've been working on learning. Im a little under 5 months of playing now. I'll be trying to get the tempo right next by looping it with songsterr and then try to play over a backing track.https://vocaroo.com/1ad5qfdoAHglhttps://youtu.be/DNu8RSDPiwE
if anyone on /gg/ gets an ebony or red 355 before i do i may literally kill myself.not joking either.thats the only thing that could make me truly jealous.... still regret that i didnt buy one when i had the government paper to do so
gonna buy a custom shop 359 and mog all of you ESniggers.
Any advice on how to tune my D's?
>>130434998>custom shop 359isnt that a manlet guitar? that shit has negative aura. buy the full size one.
Id be happy playing John Lee Hooker songs on an Epi Sheraton II honestly
335s are cool and all but 360s are where it’s really at.
>>130435266They're named that because when you see one, you turn 360 degrees and walk away
the way I remember it, people started posting Sheratons and the Gisbnobodies dialed back the 335 posting, knowing they'd been beat fair and square
Good afternoon /gg/. @ me with a Voc of that tone you've been working on lately.https://voca.ro/1nmoAhk2ef2d
>>130435508you're making a really dumb request as most people here do not have the proper recording equipment to capture a good tone.i have a jc120 and a fender tube amp. but i do not have the ability to record them as well as they would sound live.
>>130435508give me the full setup this actually sounds pretty damn good
>>130435588Skill issueAll you need is an SM-57In fact, not even that. All you need is DI and some EQing skills

Imagining life living in Brazil as a Brazilian makes me consider suicide and no guitar playing can fix it.
>>130435918>thinking about my own life makes me feel suicidalit's okay anon, we're all here for you
>>130435942hey I am NOT A BRAZILIAN!!!!
I want to put together a second pedalboard that’s only four pedals instead of my normal big board that will stay at home. What four pedals do you think are essential? I’m thinking>tuner for tuning and also killing the signal>some kind of OD/treble boost>delay>reverb, but I’ve also already got spring reverb on the amp so maybe something else
>>130436063>noise gate>tuner>boost if you're hi-gain>ampAlternatively:>modeler preamp (has gate and tuner built in)>power ampYou can throw delay and reverb in the fx loop if you want for leads or cleans. Wah is optional if you're into that. Beyond those things most FX are gimmicky and not stuff you'd have on all the time so easy to prune from the setup.
>>130434948What did you buy instead
>>130436063hx stomp
>hate Brazilians>lust after Brazilian rosewood Pick a side
>>130435622>VTM 60. Heavey on the bass at 7 with mids at noon and treb around 4. No dip switches>Moth Electric Rat clone. Again heavy on the bass, mids at noon and treble cut quite a bit>AVRI Jazzmaster with Curtis Novak pups.Really sat down this past weekend and messed around in Logic learned how to somewhat properly EQ.
>>130436170Forgot to mention I'm in the low gain channel with pre set to 5. It's really easy to get lost in all the options on the VTM especially when running gain into it, but I think I found where I like it.
>six weeks of playing my AV65 Strat every day>genuinely love itHonestly I love all my guitars but I would be genuinely happy with just this Strat, my CS Tele, and my Gibson Songwriter. I don’t want to get rid of anything but mentally narrowing it down to only these three and being content is making me think “do I really need all these?” instead of “I love all these and want all these”
>>130436164I like beautiful Brazilians but wouldnt live there

>>130436590>black plastic truss rod holeMexican.
>>130436555Nah more like I gigged a Strat for a decade but my preferences changed and my old Strat isn’t really what I like anymore and I’ve finally found one that checks every box for me and it’s nice to finally return to a Strat
>>130436690sorry you play shit music bro
>>130436157es 335 and a jazzmaster which i have now sold. clothing and other shit too. my theory was 2 high end guitars is better than 1. but honestly the es mogs the fuck out of everything i own so badly i want another similar guitar. i wish i would have bought the 355
>>130436737SG for business, 335 for pleasure
>>130436721I play alt-country Wilco-ish kind of stuff (honestly not really my kind of music but it’s fun) with some friends and my own stuff is Talking Heads/XTC/early Police new wavey kind of stuff mixed with Replacements/Pixies/early Pavement kind of stuff where the other guitarist in the alt-country thing plays drums with me so yeah kinda shit tbqh but it’s fun and I enjoy it
>>130434825stop it>>130434900maybe you don't like the top but look at her ass
>>130436814>bloody cum stain 335
>>130436814i could smoke your es -335 right now but i'd have to sell nearly all my instruments in order to do it. look at those sexy ass split inlays. this is 345 is around the price of your 335.but the gold hardware puts it into pimp territory
>>130436878>4 knobs, 3way, gay dial
>>130436878it's pretty and those inlays are awesome but yeah all the gay extra shit on it is wack

>>130436911that's fine, the >gay dialis what's weird here
>>130436921I agree it's quite gay.
Does this actually matter? The magnet is still under the strings either way.
ES-345 with varitone switch, orGlarry with glaritone switch?
>>130436899>>130436933>>130436921am i wrong for wanting to put a golden bigsby on it too...i know of a cherry es 355 for 3600 right now too. fuck..SOMEONE BUY THIS SO I CAN END IT ALL
>>130436971No.
>>130436971it matters for single coils but not for humbuckers
>>130436981yeah bigsbys are shitty and gay
>>130436981>usedso it's a guitar that someone has already decided isn't good enough
i prefer the term 'ran through' as in, "hey should we invite that guy to the jam? the one with the ran through 335? you're right, let's not."
>>130437009ok spend 6000$ or more on a new one then.
>>130437009
>>130433284scrape all the chunks off dry with a popsicle stick or credit card, or something else not metal, then use an almost completely dry cotton cloth to rub/clean off the rest. if it's really sticky, you can mix in some rubbing alcohol with the water but not more than 25%. oil immediately afterwards.
one of the guys here daily drives a ran through Squier "made in japan" probably been ran through by a bunch of beginner players, junior high boys with jizzy hands
>>130437048there's a reason a guitar loses value as soon as it reaches the first buyer. if the first buyer sells it, they must not have liked it very much. no one gets rid of the good ones. of course the guitars no one wants are cheaper, it's basic supply and demand
Series/parallel switching should come standard on all humbucker equipped guitars but Big Single Coil is greasing palms to prevent it
>>130436971Yes
>>130434091Thanks. Try not to worry about getting the tone from the record exactly, just getting in the ballpark is fine. Most recorded songs have a fuckton of processing behind the scenes, and what they sounded in the room with human ears wont be 100% the same as the finished recording>>130434929Cool cool. You could also make a backing track from the actual track by using sites that sepeaate stems. mvsep comes to mind. After downloading just place the individual tracks into your daw and mute the guitars. Goodluck on your guitar journey m8
I refuse to use AI tools to create backing tracks. I transcribe every part and program everything in MIDI, humanize it manually, and record the stuff I can actually play live
>>130437142Yeah id just be happy getting the sound in the ballpark of the genre atleast. What genre is this kind of track anyway? Id really like to play more from the DDS ost actually. Gitarooman too actually.As far as backing tracks, my amp is connected to a laptop so I think it should be pretty easy. I'll try what you recommended. And thank you for the luck, I'll keep practicing. It's really fun so I just keep playing it. I'd really like to spend more time learning slow tracks, scales, and how to make the audio sound good. Also to record the audio from the amp instead of my phone lol. I just got in the habit of making practice videos early on.
hendrix was overrated any intermediate jazz player mogs
>>130431632She deserves and award for how badly her face screams “IM A BIG DUMB BITCH”. Mongolidian.
>>130436555>Playing more than one guitar=larping
>>130437876that was just a throwaway comment i made hours ago but i guess it struck a chord (a minoooor lmao)
>Posting in /gg/ and not playing guitar=larping
>>130435508Sounds nice is it a line6 pod?
>>130437505>Mongolidianbest scale for jrock?
i know this isn't the best place to ask but for those of you who can do sweep pick and do this shape like X76454, do you feel the need to make your pinky finger (the one that presses the 4th string) to be as clear as possible or you just mostly phone in it and think the top 3 strings are what matters in terms of clarity.
>>130436981>MemphisIf that has the "memphis tone circuit"/50s wiring, I hear that shit is a fucking pain in the ass. Tone knob does weird things and drives extra voltage allegedly. So a good 8v 5t on a normal 335 would need 7v 7t on a memphis.
Can someone please explain to me how to use a compressor pedal like I’m an absolute retard? I get that it can make the quiet things louder and the loud things quieter but I’m having a hard time deciding when to use it when I can just adjust amp settings or simply just adjust how I pick strings between notes. I feel like an absolute mouthbreathing retard because I’ve been fucking around with my compressor for the last two hours and can’t find a real use for it that I can’t just solve with adjusting how I play certain parts or a quick tweaking of some knobs. I want to make use of it but I want to understand how instead of just shelving the pedal for another year.
>>130438564It was also assembled by Memphis blacks; the worst variety.
>>130435588idk my $6 webcam mic does a pretty stellar job
>>130438573its for chicken picking so that your finger plucked notes match the attack of the picked notes.
>>130438152https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfvABLTdLoM
>>130438553you only cheat yourself when you take shortcuts in guitar
>>130438692he'll yeah brother
>>130438573compression is useful when you're mixing chords with single notes. without compression, chords are much louder than single notes. if you turn your amp way up, your single notes sound great but your chords go splat. with a compressor the single notes are better and the chords splat less so you don't need to compensate as much with your playing. super important in funk where you aren't strumming lightly
>>130438730when you play fast do you need to make every notes clear though
>>130438779you don't need to but it sounds a lot better when you can articulate each note
>>130438779sweep picking isn't the kind of thing you half-ass. it's a demonstration of mastery. why show off if you can't do it right, if you can't do it you can't do it
>>130438553pinky should be on the 7th fret
>>130438857that 4th string is always fucking me off, even with the other shape like x75453x, it's always the 4th string that seems to be stuck
>>130438876i did show it off though but back then i could only do it on 3-4 strings>>130438878yeah should've said ring finger
>>130438893are you rolling your fretting hand or just holding the notes?
still greasy from whoppers cut me some slackhttps://voca.ro/11CGrHeHq9Mw
>>130438920rolling it, i think the pinky now being involved in the sweep picking makes it the biggest hurdle
>>130438930you have to relax your ring finger for the pinky to have mobility for most people the tendons are connected.
>>130438928like yeah when you slow it down you can make it sound clear but then you make it faster it's just brbrbr
>>130438955you can hide a lot of the slop in the middle but the cleaner you can get it the better it sounds even if it still sounds sloppy, its so fast even if you were machine perfect it the string doesn't ring long enough to fully sound out. That's one of the easy tells that someone sped up a track.

Osts have some nice melodies that arent grating on repeat as they have to be loopedYeah man good idea to record yourself, its a good way to track your progress and quite important to self critique as well. Hard to judge yourself whike playing in real time. Like that last cover i heard that my starting note in the solo wasnt in sync, something i thought was just ok while recording. Iirc the katana does have that function as an interface, try different IRs as well they do make an appreciable difference

>>130438553Shit's hard. Ideally of course every note should be crisp and clean. But for scrubs like me I think if the beginning and end parts of your sweep are in time with the beat/phrase the middle notes can bypass the ear quickly that the brain just makes up the gaps in information.

>>130439973https://vocaroo.com/13dnrrVfwbEDNah you got it just a lil more attack on the pick put some more skin on it, I can hear how daintily you hold the pick

>>130440201Really depends. If we're talking about Gibson and Fender it's well known and documented that 95% of their products are overpriced garbage.

>>130440394An Irish jig but punk. Neat thanks
>>130440439You're already playing an LP, the strap weight won't add much unless you get a giant one

>>130440483Ma'am this strap is a cushion just like what saxophones use
I've dripped out one of the shitplanksIt plays so nice, it sounds great, it cost me 700 Eurobucks and it has more tone options than 99% of stock guitarsNow I'm thinking about drilling some extra holes to install more switches
>>130440546bridge bucker seems slightly slanted? nice job though. what options do you have on it right now?
>>130440560Yeah, noticed that too. That's fine, it sounds good.Just series/parallel for each pickup, but that adds a ton of tonal variation. Thinking about adding the option to reverse the neck pickup's polarity and maybe add true coil splitting.I have an Epi Les Paul with polarity switches for each pickup (i.e. reverse one of the coils), that's also pretty interesting but less usable.
>>130440603parallel is really nice, i actually prefer it to split. wouldnt hurt to have both though.
Trogly reviewed a guitar i actually ownedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcknwt5f8gE
>looking at acoustic guitars>play fingerstyle>oh cool 00/grand concert>reviewer just loudly strums open and standard e/a shape barre chords with a pick
>>130440667Personally, I’ve owned many guitars with coil tap / split / parallel / series switches. Baja tele, multiple PRS se’s, charvels, les Pauls, Strat deluxe etc. The only guitars I could get a decent tone out of in one of the split coil PRS se’s. It was almost usable for a strat tone. The charvel wasn’t bad either. But, I’ve found that the middle pickup selector works better for single coil tones. And I would probably never configure a guitar with anything other than a 3 or 5 way switch in the future. Asking one guitar to do everything is too much. Going to put a set of 50/51 custom shop fender black guard pickups in my new tele and ditch the noiseless push pull series selector. What pots should I get to go with them?
>>130440373Fender Japan always has the best offsets.
>>130439790soul power strat > arm the homeless strat
https://youtu.be/FvVnP8G6ITs?si=8VNcZESQMvF0yFruDo I need a jumbo to become a billionaire guitar player?
>>130440784I get what you mean, with too many switches it becomes an additional task to take up brainpower, potentially detracting from the actual playing. I mostly use the large number of switches to figure out which combinations I like best, then reduce the amount of options later.I have a Baja Tele for single coil stuff already, I'm just interested in H/S combinations and out of phase stuff, hence the plans for more rewiring on the LP and Jacksons.The individual coil polarity thing on the Les Paul is certainly unique since the coils are much closer together than those on a Strat or Tele, giving you different comb filter characteristics. But their usability is limited; you don't get hum canceling anymore and the output amplitude is much lower, so signal to noise ratio is worse and you need a ton of gain from a compressor or drive pedal to get it to audible levels. They sound very thin and trebley, which is certainly a vibe, but not for many styles.I absolutely love the middle position with both humbuckers in parallel mode, so all 4 coils in phase and in parallel. It's sparkly and clean and great with comp+chorus+reverb for 80s tones.Bridge 'bucker in parallel with tone all the way down is midrange heaven, great for smooth leads when run into comp+OD.Neck humbucker on its own with the coils in parallel is a great clean sound, similar to all 4 coils in parallel but with more midrange. Love it with just comp+reverb to mimick a Strat's position 4.
... except Strats have the middle and neck pickups out of phase. Ig maybe it's more like a Tele's middle position but with more midsIn any case, I love those combos.>>130441338

Guys what is our solution to the Fender question

>>130441834Round up every S-type body and ship them off to Madagascar
>>130442012I still have a chinkstrat lying around in parts, it'll be worth millionsRetirement sorted out
>>130442012Imagine how many Madagascan starving future /gg/ regulars those could feed
>>130442081
>>130430998Now that Fender is suing everybody, where do I go to get a decent cheapass strat? I prefer things with an HH configuration but the coiltap on my nighthawk is a pale imitation of a reg strat.I was looking at an E-ART basic bitch one because elmo liked it, elmo also liked the harley benton strats but HB specifically got the german cease-and desist and all the E-ART stuff on u.s. amazon got bought up. I didn't use to be opposed to squier but the E-ART strat at 280$ beat the piss out of a 470$ squier CV 60s and actually stays in tune with trem use.I've heard about firefly but that they're also a gamble but not a bad shot if you want to pop 230$ on a wierd clone of something like buckethead's baritone.

>>130442288Obviously that’s the ideal but people have an aversion to buying Fender or even Squier and instead insist on buying cheap shitty Chinese knockoffs.

>>130442398I definitely won’t I’m boycotting Fender forever, I’ve already sold all my Fender products

>>130432749You know what… I bought a $200 Yamaha acoustic near my cottage in northern MI and played it twice. Pulled it out last weekend and it was surprisingly decent. Not great at all, but totally playable and it stays in tune and sounds fine. That was made in India. I forget the letter designation but the number in the name is 130 I think.

>>130440373The only downside of MIJs are if the body is basswood or if it’s older and has subpar pickups and electricals. Otherwise the build quality BTFOs MIM/MIA.
