>>130494790>Blackstar models>40 pedals >Better than the spark DSP stuff>Freely download and use NAM captures and IRs>Free moises stem seperation once it drops in the appIs there any possible reason I would get this over a spark 2 or even a reg boss katana gen 3? I only ever play in my bedroom tbf and if it's just 200$ that won't hurt me too much down the line when I'm ready to get my first 50w amp methinks.
A bass is needed for a casual family band and it seems like it falls to me but I also can't help wanting to play guitar. A Bass VI seems to perfectly solve my problem.Would a baritone guitar be better?What are the best alternatives to Fender/Squier?Thank you.
>>130494861A baritone might suit you better and you could play dumb if you're asked about it. Firefly is a chinese brand that makes baritones at abt 250$ buckaroos occasionally and phil mcknight was a big fan of the one he was sent. Aside that, baritones can be stupid expensive as they're even more rare than 7-strings at this point.The baritone's strings will also be thinner than what you'd need for a bass VI
>>130494943I’d get a Danelectro baritone before a Firefly.
Got the d-35s back after a setup. Very sweet sounding and definitely wants to keep the neighbors from sleeping.Sounds exactly like all the folk music I was raised on. Also makes me appreciate how much value you get on modern entry level stuff.
>>130495048waiting to pick up my 335 on tuesday
Best tool to learn guitar.
>>130495254naur.
>>130494861I played Bass VI in a 6 piece band, it was fun to do melodic stuff, but even with a bass amp an cab the lowend lacked heft or solid thump. Keep a 4 string bass handy
>>130495294Do you think that was because it was short-scale? This is also very casual, as in, we might not even make it to the first session. So a versatile instrument that I can still enjoy solo but also do its job as bass would be really perfect.
>>130495334It was much more mellow bass like in a The Cure song. The bass vi Ddadario strings are lighter and maybe the shorter scale had something to do with it. Compressing and EQing may help bring it out more.
>>130495369I will keep looking into this. Thank you very much.

i just think they're neat
https://voca.ro/154qZIwzXL44
>>130495654I'm sorry
>>130495635go buy a pocket
>>130495654Exposed wood is neat
>>130495659seriously go buy pocket bro
pockets aren't real
>>130495664sorry for what?
>>130495721I honestly hate when clothes do that, why give me that illusion of a pocket when you could of just made a real one
>>130495274Yes, nothing else can track your progress like Rocksmith. Yesterday I was only 28% Slash, and today I'm 37% Slash. see >>130486648
>>130494861study players like jamerson, stu hamm, victor wooten, and anthony jackson. you don’t need a guitar, you can play all that stuff on bass (chords, counterpoint melody, voice leading etc)
>>130495334it’s a guitar pickup with the thinnest strings from a bass. it’s missing string mass and bass pickups are like double or triple the output of a guitar pickup
https://voca.ro/1bpMcdBJjzsOsong idea i had. very rough shoegazy style
>>130495901sounds like depeche mode
>>130495736>could of
>>130495654That is a strat
>>130495735sorry our riffs is so big
tyler scored himself a signature gateanyone tried it yet?
>>130495937our daddy taught us not to be ashamed of our scale lengths. 'specially since they're such good size an' all...
favourite pedal power supply brand?
I kind of regret getting a left handed guitar because it's impossible to sell
>>130494790Should have been a tele pickup, angle and color perfectly matches the hair
>>130495794Slash didn't become Slash by playing Rocksmith my guy c'mon now
https://voca.ro/1m670mgrw1o8
https://voca.ro/17agHlgwI8uA
https://voca.ro/19WQry2zXqbb
>>130496235This is because Rocksmith didn't exist back then you silly. https://youtu.be/mVNMkb4XK48?t=155Even Guitar Hero is very respected by this legend.
>>130496235Slash could have become Buckethead if Riff Repeater existed back then
>>130495254>have old squier>Game works fine>Buy new fender player ii>Game has trouble tracking the simplest notes nowWhat the FUCK is going on. Game works fine with my cutlass but not my telecaster fucking WHY
I love this little nigga so muchhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0BleGBDmEjY
>>130494861just get a cheap squier p bass and you'll be golden, can even go shortscale if you want to be a pussy and then you'll be in baritone territory without the downsides of it.
>>130495334>Do you think that was because it was short-scale?nah, short scales are in fact a lot more thumpier than long scale basses since the shorter but still fat strings make for a much more bass-heavy tone, they will lack clarity if that's what you're after.The reason your bass IV was not up to par is simply due to the fact that it's got guitar pickups and way thinner strings than a regular bass. Same reason why no 8 string or 9 string guitar can hold a candle to a real bass when it comes to low end.
>>130495254Does this actually work?
So many people trying offload their Fenders lmao never seen anything like it
>>130496996They really thought they owned the strat shape huh
>>130496601you need to calibrate your guitar in the menu, when rocksmith asks you to check if your guitar is in tune before playing - hit calibrate
>>130496781For like... hyper basic 2 weeks of music class learningMaybe actual guitar lessons cost cheaper than this game, the cable, etc
>>130496781Yes.https://youtu.be/KwxnM4d8hiY?t=168
>>130496996So Fenders can be had for cheap right now?
>>130496996Fucking retards lmfaoI’m a ride or die fenderfag
>>130497036The cable (or at least the functional chink ripoff of it) cost me 40 bucks online, and the game itself can be pirated for free which is the better version since all the music licenses expired.
>>130497815Yeah I'm sure the massive corporation who doesn't know you exist feels amazing in your butthole and on your mouth
>>130498427Why yes I do love the telecaster headstock shape!
>>130498620It's very assgonomic, yes
>>130498620>>130498784I prefer the starcaster headstock
Does this generally tend to be true? Is it because only the last one is a 'jazz bass'? Is it even worth investing in a cheap bass (no more than $250) at that point?https://www.youtu.be/xR5O2pDk0VA
>>130498800>>130498784If you practice every day, you will be able to fit even jazzmaster headstock!
>>130498800https://youtu.be/s-ITIwtmC-I?t=58what do you think of this?
rode my gibson so hard it snapped off in my bussy
>>130499174what’s your question? I’m not watching a video for you
>>130499252>>130499174talking to myself again
>>130499279If I get a ~$250 "jazz bass" will it sound obviously cheap no matter what, compared to an actual Fender?
>>130499291no, people can’t pick out cheap vs expensive pickups in a blind shootout and what’s even crazier is that very different bass designs will sound very similar when you go direct (which is often). the fenders even use the saf-t-tuners so even the chinkplanks stay in tune
>>130499311Thanks, because the video I posted was some "cheap vs expensive bass" slop but what they failed to mentioned was that only the last one was an (actual) "jazz bass". As long as it sounds at least 90% similar in a mix, layered with FX and everything else, then I wouldn't want to drop a dime on something I wouldn't frequently use anyway.
>>130499311You sound like you’ve been listening to seething mixing board monkeys. Blind shootouts and spectre sound studios “i gave 2 nice guitars and a fugly meal babby plank with pot metal frets and a knock off floyd rose all a shitty 80s tone wow they the same! NOW METAL CHUGG!” videos especially are so fucking retarded. No shit recorded tones are samey. Recorded tones are boiled down, simplified, and meant to fit into busy rock mixes 90% of the time. You’d never give a shit unless it were an intimate jazz performance. But what matters even more than the recording isYOUAND THE PEOPLE AROUND YOUNot the fucking spotify audience and drunks hearing the PA in the back. Musical instruments are PERSONAL EXPERIENCES. The nuances of the entire acoustic space that take 3 high end mics and masterful mixing to capture and can only fit on a solo track are still immediately audible to you, the person whose ARBITRARY AND IMMEASURABLE EMOTIONS drive the performance. Literally no recording and playback method on the mass market can capture how the guitar feels and vibrates in your hands either, but it still matters. These blind tests are gear faggotry. They reduce a musical instrument into a soulless PRODUCTION TOOL. Despite all these gear focused youtuber faggots, every successful artist continues to use nice feeling, nice to play stuff that sounds great in isolation - the mix can go fuck itself because its the engineers job to reduce it to fit it into a PA or onto a tape/mp3 file which can never EVER encapsulate the original reality, not convince people to come in pre-reduced. And they use what they love, not what the recording engineer considers peak sufficiency, regardless of cheap vs expensive or futuristic versatility and value for money vs traditional limitations and “relatively larger expense for how few FEATURES u get (AND HOW MUCH EXTRA WORK THE POOR SOUND GUY HAS TO DO) durrr”.

>>130499385This>youtube: you’re wasting your money blues lawyer fucking loser buy a harley benton use an amp sim fucking boomer solid state is good enough tonewood isnt real ok it is but my sm57 cant hear it the mix the mix the mix>every artist: yes i play a tube amp whenever i can get away with it and yes i enjoy it more
>>130499385TLDR
>>130499385chill bro.the real answer is play whatever you have or can afford, make it your own through your playing.if you can follow a youtube video, learn to set up the instrument and you'll be fine
>>130499416This
>>130499385>mfw when youtube existsjust don't watch, buddy
>>130499385Truthnuke but isn't it diminishing returns after a certain point? Like does a $3000 bass really offer anything more than knowing you were rich enough to afford it?
>>130499435Maybe one day, big daddy Bonamassa will notice him
>>130499435if you swap the same pickups into a cheap guitar there's gonna be minimal difference to the signal coming out of the cable.
>>130499447None, and also you don't need to swap the pickups in the first place
>>130499440
>>130499410There is no short version. Passion doesn’t fit well into text. If it did, dostoevsky would have wrote shorter books. Ignore gearfaggots and play what you love, not what a tech nerd who couldn’t get into creating music and settled for sliders and mics has determined to be close enough on tape. All of it is 100% different and inherently worth it in reality because every different piece of gear feels and sounds different in reality. Play what you love. And remember, sound engineers are miserable failed musicians haunted by unreachable dreams who will never understand creativity, passion, and soul. The very notion of human feeling offends them and reminds them of everything they could not do. And yours, they want to control so they can pretend to be alive. >For less than the cost of a Big Mac, fries and a Coke, you can buy a loaf of fresh bread and some good cheese or roast beef, which you will enjoy much more.
>>130499435It offers feeling and passion if you love that bass. They sell for $3000 because if someone loves it, they will buy it. Money is meant to be spent and music is meant to be loved. Don’t be a jew. Besides, if your investments can’t compensate for a little excess you’re a really shitty jew.
>>130499463>would have wroteyou mean would of wrote
>>130499477love for an instrument develops over the time you spend with it. sounds like your relationships with your guitars are superficial and shallow
>>130499498>stop liking hot girls their personalities aren’t as goodkekfrom failed musicians to failed chads
>>130499477>>130499498I got a $100 Squire and it's the best-sounding guitar I've ever owned, not sure if that counts
We neeeed your help /gg/Cheap stratocaster copies have invaded the marketand are trying to take over the industryOur bot army alone can't do the jobHurry, fender sisters!
>>130499567saxophone is my main instrument and theres a massive gap between a 100$ saxophone and 3000$ saxophone that doesnt seem to apply so heavily to bass or guitarsthat being said, you can rent a pro level saxophone for 50$ a month which doesnt seem to be the case with bass or guitars for some reason at least in my area
>>130499570Fenders problem is expensive stratocaster copies. Less plasticky feeling/looking finishes, stable wood, frets made of real fret wire, quality lutherie and non-undersized real metal hardware is a combo fender’s underpaid dispassionate mexican workforce can’t compete with unless executives and non-production employees (ie: social media engagement expert, professional idea guy) start getting laid off. Just using wood from a barn door instead of a flame maple veneer is enough for an instrument to feel and look more real and fender’s boomer slaveholders can’t deal.
>>130499506>t.
>>130499602If major brands were not overtly hostile, peak guitar would be around $750-$1000.See: japanese copyright violation guitars
>>130499622dang history really does repeat huh
>>130499435As gearfag mcKnight recently said, When I order a meal in a fancy restaurant I do not actually care whether the chef used an expensive artisanal bespoke knife made of meteorite steel and folded a thousand times, or an Ikea shanker. It does however matter to the chef.
>>130499631A lot of these were actually good. Not “bruh it sounds the same in the mix and i got locking tuners” “good” but actual heart and soul good. I have one its leagues above cathy chibson, harley benton and epiphone.History is a degrading echo.
damn he really had a meltdown over a guy looking to buy a cheap bass didn’t he
absolute jokers in this thread
