Wanna make my own song but for something like rhythm or even lead sometimes I'm having trouble understanding how/when to use full chords, triads, dyads, power chords whatever
>>130667209Whenever you like
>>130667209if you play rock then play minor pentatonic over everything
>>130667209if you play blues then play minor pentatonic over everything
I will say it:Braced or Posted Hollowbody > Semi-hollow > Full Hollowbody > Solidbody
>>130667274You'd be incorrect but sure
>>130667209Put the ones that sound good next to each other
is this any good? i've never seen one on a pedalboard posted here
>>130667333digitech isnt exactly known for being great, but the drop is an exception
it's still wednesday continue posting amps
Is an Epiphone SG special bad? It's only $120 used so it's about as cheap as it gets, but I don't have much space right now. I could pass on it if it's far and away not as good as my lower-mid rangers. But I've never tried one so I'm not sure.
>>130667333Works well
>>130667357Is that your gear, Anon? Noice if so.
>>130667371Any guitar can be a lemon.
>>130667371You don't need a fleet of shitty guitars. Just get 2 or 3 really good ones.
Like the coldest winter nutHeaven beside you, hell in your butt
>>130667528Indeed it is, and thanks
played 4 hours todayi'm stil not goodi didn't finish a single song because no matter what they'll have a weird chord i just can't make
>>130667589What's the story with that blonde Bandmaster?
How do you know if a song is in the key of Dm versus F? Does it matter either way?
>>130667651Music theory is literally imaginary. Why do you care if you know the notes? Are you retarded?
>>130667634it's a '66 head that's been rehoused as a 1x12 combonothing else really interesting going on with it, I just find it more convenient to lug around that way
Just ordered one of these. They're $599 on amazon now right now instead of the normal $719. It's listed as a prime item with free shipping but is sold by 'austin bazaar'. I'm guessing the things weren't moving and were taking up more room than they're worth at the amazon fulfillment center. I'm just going to run it as DI with an hx stomp and as a vocal pa/monitor. I couldn't pass up the $120 off below msrp.
>>130667657Music theory is descriptive of physical mathematic ratios that occur with sound waves. It's about as imaginary as math is, as in it isn't arbitrary though it is a model.
>>130667325This. If you're going to get a semi just get a real hollowbody instead of the poseur. Otherwise you may as well just get a fucking thinline.
>>130667707Cool. It looks like my '65 DRRI, which an amp guy told me has the wrong knobs for the blonde+wheat colours. I have no idea. I just think blonde+wheat amps are Fender's nicest looking.
>>130667817absolutely agreeI'd like to get a matching tube reverb unit for it but everyone wants way too much for the blonde ones. I might just have to make my own
>>130667735I also have a boss rc-10r so the cube should be able to handle the drum machine and the hx stomp modeling on separate channels since it has 4 inputs total. Hoping to have a really good downsized rig for practicing. I need to buy two more external footswitches one for the boss looper and one for the hx stomp now though.
I want to sell all my guitars and get an ES-330
>>130668016330s are pretty cool
Pic related was ahead of its time and sometime in the future we'll all be considered retards for not buying the first runs.
>listening to post-Mick Ronson BowieI thought this was the guitar general
swung by the tech's shop after my lesson today (same location) to see what he thought about filing the nut. told him i was getting string slippage while tuning. he reproduced the problem right away, wailed on it a bit to check for tuning instability. it's stable as long as a string isn't stuck. probably not worth filing the nut, or at least waiting a bit until i'm locked into 12s>>130668016based
>>130668016You can scratch the same itch with other models for cheaper. You should check out Heritage, Eastman, and Epiphone Elites. Unless it's got to be Gibson, of course.
>>130667651by how the tension builds and resolvesoften you can just look at the last chord of the song since it's typically the resolution
Thinking about selling a ton of my gear to buy one vintage Fender or maybe Gibson if the Juniors or Specials or possibly SGs in my budget are alright.
Your balls drop when you play through some mean distortion.
>>130668016Why would a poet need a guide to pottery?Huh.
I'm building a Mustang 'cos I hate 25.5 scale.
Traded my Pedaltrain Nano for a Nano + and now my pedals on the smaller board are all five in a row instead of two hanging over the edges and two stacked in a column but now my small board is 4” longer and doesn’t feel as small. My big board is too big for the pedals I realistically use and now my small board is just as long
>>130668614Post nano+

>>130668954Nice guitars

>>130669283>>130668954https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFV6mqP7rfY
>>130668889Same board just longer
Will I regret trying humbucker guitar coming from a strat?
>>130669286what do u want me to do play to this?>>130669283im writing blues because its easy bros.
>>130669391No, I'm showing how its literally the first blues thing most people learn its not original.Play me a blues song with no pentatonics, not in E or A and without bending the third major or minor
Doing bends on the high E string feels like pushing my finger against a wire slicer. My babby calluses don't suffice
>bad singer but it’s fun>can sing and play rhythm and chords no problem>trying to get better at singing and playing actual riffs and simple lead parts>it’s always been super hard and I can mostly get the singing rhythm in time against the different rhythm of the riff but it’s way harder to stay singing in tune when the riff is changing notesHow do I get better at this other than just keep doing it over and over?
>>130669352Yes
I don't understand how this blender pedal works. It only has 3 jacks but you need 4
>>130669487Jam with others, even just one other person.
>>130667134i removed the pickguard from my cheap parlour guitar and it looks a million times better now! (not my pic but looks exactly the same and same model)
>>130669487Play the guitar part until you don't have to think about it then focus on singing
>>130669535or if youre a loner like me, get a simple drum synth like a 606 and start a power duo with the machine
>>130669487I've found that humming or whistling the vocal line a few times while I play makes it a lot easier to lock in with the actual vocals
>>130669539How did you get it off, Anon?Nice little guitar.
>>130669547Or get a drum and looper
>>130669568it was a super ghetto trick that supposedly luthiers commonly use: i ran my mom's hair dryer over it on high heat for a minute or two, and then lifted it bit by bit using mint flavoured dental floss. there was a bunch of glue residue left over but i was able to pick most of it up by pressing the glued edge of the pickguard repeatedly on it to lift the bits off. and then i rubbed a small amount of coconut oil on it to clean off the remaining gunk. also its probably in my head but i swear the top sounds a little less constrained now that theres not a piece of plastic glued onto it..
>>130669583damn i actually could use that... my approach has been to play fingerstyle so i can handle the bass frequencies with my thumb and the lead bits with my other fingers so then i dont need another guitarist or bassist lol
>>130669595One of those and these >>130667333 for the bass and you can essentially make your own backing tracks.
>>130669535This is the only real way. A looper is good to have but cant substitute being in sync with another person.
>practice playing a song >get it down fine, can play the whole thing through >practice playing it slowing while singing and build up speed until I have both parts down >feel comfortable>want to record it>as soon as I know I’m recording I mess everything up every time and get more pissed the more I mess up until I just give upI am never going to be able to record myself singing and playing at the same time and I’ll forever be stuck recording both parts separately
>>130669659Just record while you practice all the time
>>130669659just do your best, minor mistakes give the performance depth and flavor something sorely lacking from todays overproduced washed compressed quantized and reverbed sounds.
this is a custom guitar I had made by a chinese company called Pangoyou can read my review about it here:https://www.guitarkit.shop/collections/right-hand-electric-guitar-on-sale/products/ibanez-electric-guitar-on-sale-ib-1
>>130669708k
>>130667735Doesn't the cube have great amp voicings and effects though? Everyone jacks off about the old cubes and the dual cubes from like 15 years ago.
>>130669779I know, totally boring, like why didnt I buy a jazzmaster or EVH like everyone else???
>>130669708time to move out of gam gams house bud
>>130669852kek
>>130669852more like trying to get out of trans trans houseyou people are already dead and you know it, everything you have was given to you, you dont have a creative bone in your body
>>130669794Compared to the hx stomp fuck no man. It had passable digital distortion and crunch back when all the solid states sounded like absolute shit. But the newer models and irs are at a completely different level.
>>130669942i love my hx stompits kind of limited so ive considered getting that mini cortex doodad but theyre doing the artificial scarcity bs and its permanently out of stock
>>130668016Hollowbody master race.
>>130669985Hate the way the screen and buttons are done on that. Are you running out of DSP on the stomp?
>>130669999wow!!!!!!!!!clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap
>>130669999lil head big body i can't stop laughing
>>130670006yeah and the interface is pretty outdated and menu divey so you basically have to use the desktop editor so its a huge mess of wires from your amp and back and to the computer Also you have to sacrifice a block to switch between running through the effects loop of the amp and running 4cm Like if you want to bypass the preamp of your amp and just use the power amp you have to sacrifice a block to do an fx loop insert its not ideal
>>130670029The helix ones fix all that. And the foot switches and screen are large enough. You get 48 blocks on the xl. Unless you are just wanting to try an entirely new ecosystem.
>>130669936what do you mean you people? Cool it with the antisemitic remarks
>>130669999I want a dangelico hollowbody based on looks but the only one I have played was at guitar center and was used and felt physically tacky as in it was sticky like the finish melted in the back of a car or something. The next time I drive through nashville I'm going to go to a couple guitar stores
i'm probably the fastest picker in /gg/
>>130670072yeah
>>130670045i have fallen in love with the small form factor of the hx stomp its kind, its about the size of a large bar of soap those floorboards are enormous, cool but enormous and not really designed to set on your desk or throw in a backpack or guitar case/gig bag which is why im interested in the little quad cortex as its a full fledged QC just in a smaller form factor
https://voca.ro/1bgjw0mKT3BC
>>130670101woa
>>130670101sounds like reverend horton heat
i hope you guys like punk music cause heres a punk song i wrote 1 minute ago i hope you guys really like ithttps://voca.ro/16aDpcrFNxK4
>>130670143I am not particularly fond of punk music so I will not be partaking in your vocaroo but I wish you well in all your future endeavors.
>>130670069you can just sand the neck
>>130670152yeah, whatever.
>>130670097Yeah they're supposed to be entire pedalboard and amp replacements though. For touring musicians its a hell of a whole lot more portable than amps, cabs, and real pedalboards. The cortex is more of a sit on top of your frfr cabinet as though it were a head than a stompbox because it is so cramped. But it's obviously more powerful. I like that the hx stomp is a good headphone amp and can drive even senheisser hd600s. I have had the same hd560s for like 12 years but I may upgrade them just because I bought the stomp. I have a roland rubix 22 interface and I guess it may be a little quiet for them without a headphone amp though
>>130670029IR-2 to offload the amp and reverb? Amps take the most processing to a dedicated box should free alot of space.
>>130670069Poly finish can be scuffed up with 600 grit sandpaper. It feels nice and slick after that.Are you the Anon talking about the 59s? Those look nice.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xz7_3n7xyDg
thinking about selling all my gear buying a glarry and living in my car
>>130670170drive+amp+fx loop block+eq eats up a shitton of dsp leaving not much for modulation/delay/reverb let alone more whacky stuff i dont like running out of dsp and it happens alot
>>130670164It's one of their cheaper models. I want to know what the flagship 59 deluxe feels like. The 3 guitars I want are a prs nf53, a d'angelico 59 deluxe, and a suhr modern antique.
real talk not even baiting: don't you guys get sick sick of sounding like a faggot and using reverb and delay and a bunch of bullshit effects? the immediacy of a guitar straight into an amp (tube only) and how it responds is just better than a quad cortex.get a fucking 1x12 tube combo for christ sakes, THAT's what you need if you want to play in a band, not a gay ass computer that makes you sound not like a live guitar but like a gay 1980s def leppard polish chorus fagIt's bad for your technique and makes everyone including non guitar players respect you less cuz yeah, everyone can tell it's effects and bullshit not you playing
>>130670192we had an anon do that a couple months back where he sold everything and bought a charvel and stadium xl then his car immediately died on him lol
>>130670202i like reverb and delay on my solos it sounds epic sue me
>>130670202Wait until this guy finds out about steel strings
>>130670174Yeah I like the natural and the satin burst one. The chicken beak amp switch being the pickup selector is really cool.
>>130670202Quad Cortex is your tube and more, sorry mate
>>130670220true connoisseurs run a multifx into a tube amp for maximum versatility
>>130670202Could you please demonstrate the tone that you mean via vocaroo?
>go online and talk shit about effects>change players minds about effects>keep using effects myself>upstage them with my effects even though they're better players
>>130670202I sold my 4w tube amp and am selling my 120w head and 4x12 because they're just plain not convenient and they're too loud. Even with an attenuator they still annoy people if you live in an apartment or condo
>>130670233all of my roommates have moved out and i live alone in a 4 bedroom house now simply because moving into a 2 bedroom apartment at the same price would cuck me out of being able to crank my amp lol
>>130670233I was talking about to play in a band. you're much better off with just an amp than trying to plug shit into a PA, especially in practice situations because you're gonna have some shitty PA for vox only and putting guitar through it will just steal vocals
>>130670211You realize you can run this into a tube for authentic tone yes?
>>130670252i can't even play my acoustic in my duplex without being a dick. I hate being a city rat fucking loser but I smoked weed as a teen
>>130670262been there done that got the t shirt dont like all the wires and it sounds exactly the same to me as the multifx multifx and a tube combo amp like a jvm410 or my boogie is all i need i dont play live or anything but the wires and having to physically move shit around on the pedalboard to change order is a roadblock to playing at least for me, i just want to plug in press a couple buttons if i want to change toan and go
>>130670265just talk to your neighbors below and above you about it and avoid playing late at night , ive done it before and made it work with tube amps in an apartment
>he doesn't have his neighbours compliment his playing in the hallway or front mailbox room
>>130670274Its one wire into the unit and one into the amp. And nothing breaks up and saturates quite like tubes.
>>130670309its actually 4 wires guitar - amp -to pedal - back to amp not even considering all the wires between the pedals im ocd about it but the wires drive me insane, i wish someone would invent a 4cm wireless system
>>130670265I have a 2 bedroom and the center bedroom is away from the door that leads to the interior hallway. I play in there and it's my office. I play fingerstyle on a 000 sized guitar anyway so I can control the volume to be as quiet as I want and play in the living room by the hallway anyway. Also this building is from before they made walls paper thin.
>>130670309I may buy a little head and a 1x12 in the future when I buy a house but right now is career building time for both me and my wife so there is no way we won't be moving constantly for another 10 years.
>>130670349NEIL??? YOURE ALIVE?????https://youtu.be/NMfBNxg16D0>damn your fingerpicking has gotten really good
>xhe doesn't avoid neighbors due to crippling social anxiety Grim!
Are open-back tuners better?, I remember some anon insulted me because my guitar doesn’t have them, but like how much of an audible difference do they make?
>>130670449If the guitar stays in tune that's all that matters. Grovers are perfectly good.
>>130670449Not necessarily. They are easier to clean and lube, but closed-backs are meant to be maintenance free. It all depends on the quality of the tuner to begin with. That being said, you can get teeth breaking off the gears on old tuners of either style.
>>130670464I figured, fuck that guy lol.>>130670468Yeah but I don’t think I’ll have that problem anytime soon.
>>130670449Those are milk bottle grovers borther. Each one of those tuners is worth about $50 https://reverb.com/item/94067234-grover-guitar-tuning-peg-milk-bottle-usa-pat-pending-dae-side-1950s-nickel
>>130670202I once compared my 1x12 Mustang v2 modeller combo side by side with the real deal 2x12 Deluxe Reverb combo of my uncle.They sounded different like day and night, although the Mustang is not a bad modeller imho.The tube combo had some immediate bang and presence the modeller cannot reproduce. It's like you can feel the heat. The Mustang sounded like an unemotional digital audio source.Yea 2x12 vs 1x12 but even with another driver the mustang wouldn't sound like that.No idea on how more modern modellers compare thoThe Deluxe Reverb is mad expensive (+maintanance), mad heavy and limited so taking that route is kind of insane nowadays.I also don't get why you'd need anything more than 1x12 for anything. Way too loud for home use/practicing/home recording (since Covid, a ton of music releases these days are home recorded sessions put together to a master after sending the Pro Logic files back an forth a couple times).Too heavy to carry to a gig and a gig always has a PA anyways. Even band room should be good with 1x12 or just use a PA there aswell if wanna go boom.
>>130670503I didn’t think despite their age that they’d be significantly more valuable than the current Grover’s with more or less the same design, I’m seeing an entire 6 set that looks near identical for $50 on Sweetwater.I like my tuners, they are original to my guitar, I was just wondering if the guy was talking sense or not.
Tuning machines are awesome.
>>130670202This is the ultimate old fag realization. Nothing beats going straight into the amp and not hiding behind effects and not sounding like ass.The demo here won't agree but that's only because they are too young
>>130670515Only thing I don't like about grovers is they add a lot of weight to the headstock. 9/10 times I will prefer a guitar with waverly or kluson style tuners just because of the weight but grovers are probably better at keeping the guitar in tune. They were considered an upgrade at the time.
>>130667333Other guitarist in my former band uses it, works fine
>>130670309Wrong
>>130670538I mean my guitar weighs nothing, like three pounds or something, it doesn’t bother me really, I’ve never really noticed the weight.
locking tuners or nothin
>>130670509tube combos/amps are super heavy but ive always felt like you could just buy a dolly or hand truck and completely dodge the inconvenience if youre gigging with one
>>130670569Not him, I think he's talking about an issue with weight balance. Heavier tuners can cause the guitar to become head-heavy.Personally, I doubt it makes much of a difference, but I've never A/B'ed tuner weights so I don't actually know.
>>130670523People older than (You) love Chorus though
>>130670593personally ive only ever noticed real head heavy imbalance where the guitar is really wanting to fall into your fret hand is with SGs and even then at least while sitting playing with a strap on mitigates it and standing you dont notice it at all people will complain about grovers adding weight and then not even notice the added weight of a locking nut, it’s almost entirely psychosomatic
>>130670581Until you play in a place where there are stairs. Or you need to load the thing. Or move it across uneven ground, like when you're playing at a hippie festival in the woods.>>130670509The entire premise of your comparison is flawed. You didn't eliminate all of the other variables besides the amplification technology, such as speaker type, enclosure size, EQ settings, amp gain stage design etc; you didn't do a double blind A/B test using short samples; and you likely didn't get close to reproducing the input signal exactly enough to have no audible difference because that's hard.You just have a skill issue.
>>130670601Locking nuts definitely add weight but the lever isnt as bad
>>130670607i dont gig so ill take your word for it, tube amps are fucking pigs to move around even just my house so i get sacrificing 1 percent of toan for convenience that being said at home you should really have one, there is *something* about them
>>130670601SGs are already infamous for their neck dive, and that's mainly due to their body shape and thus the weight distribution.>>130670612>i dont gigI can tell, yes>there is *something* about themIt's called placebo
>>130670509>the real deal 2x12 Deluxe Reverb comboYou mean a twin reverb? And a big part of that is the speakers. You can get way closer by using good speakers instead of whatever mid ones are in the fender solid states.
>>130670613i dont gig because its literally not worth my time to i have better things to do with my life than be a glorified jukebox for drunk assholes and boomers and if youre an adult man you should tooAlso ill add it’s not every SG, ive had 3 and only 1 had the noticeable dive, must be something to do with the body woods weight like youre saying go figure

>>130670658i play for my own satisfaction
>>130670620It’ll be a cool amp but you could have gotten a BOUTIQUE hand wired Deluxe Reverb style amp from a reputable builder who stands behind their work for the same price
i once compared a cat turd to a dog turd the cat turd was crunchier but the dog turd has a stronger depth of flavor
>>130670620nice amp

Gonna play in a Beatles cover band with an older guy from church and his friends, I’m playing George’s parts and having to sing his harmony parts and his harmony parts are way harder than any of his playing. >lmao cover bandYes, it’s fun playing music with friends and seeing people enjoy seeing songs they know and love played live.
>>130670700Based
Real talk, you cannot tell a tube amp over a VST over vocaroo and thru ur little white earbuds, the best gear in /gg/ sounds like the worst gear in /gg/ because surprise surprise the gear hardly matters. If it works it works.
>>130670717Keep telling yourself that, room anon tubes sound way better than that guy using NAM
hes arguing both sides of the aisle again
>>130670721>guy A playing guitar A through rig A sounds different from guy B playing guitar B through rig BThere are tons of variables here. The difference of tubes vs modelling, if it exists at all, is negligible in comparison.
>>130670726stop calling it out man let him cook damn
>>130670727you are mentally ill and not in the fun way like samb was
>>130670732Still not seeing a counter argument
>>130670731i beef with the schizos its kinda my thing
>>130670732What did this 'Sam' character do that was so endearing as to have him mentioned in every /gg/ without him so much as posting a whisper for half a decade? Was it just right time right place? I have an unhealthy curiosity over what drives such devotion.
>>130670742>implying you werent there
These amps would cost a fucking fortune to acquire but now I got the power in my lap. I'm happy with that.
>>130670753ah yes the BOSS original amp with extreme gain and high definition, the absolute peak of booteek
https://voca.ro/15iEuJZ0LzWO
>>130670762i like it
>>130670669Modeler design to sound like ampIf modeler no sound like amp then badIf modeler have make change to sound like amp then bad
>>130670778Ah, so your argument is that the stock presets don't sound exactly like the settings that your specific amp happens to be at on that specific day. Got it. I guess I agree.This doesn't mean that the modeller (or a fucking solid state amp with a bunch of solid state OD and EQ pedals in front) CAN'T sound like it, it just means you're too unskilled to operate a simplistic user interface and haven't understood how harmonic distortion and EQ interact.And this is assuming that we're talking about matching tones exactly, not just replicating the """character""" of an amp, whatever that means.

>>130671001wtf does this even meanI'm choosing Am anyway since I can sing A2 comfortably with some room to go lower.Not sure about modes though
>>130671000Why settle for a regular Strat when you could have a SUPER Strat
>>130671004blue and white and smell like rusty pennies?just liek my love?
>>130670607>You didn't eliminate all of the other variables besides the amplification technologyMate, I tuned in the "same" tone in both amps (Mustang has the official Fender Twin Reverb as a selectable amp). You can tell how the way the guitar signal gets turned into sound is very different between the two independent of any EQ setting etc. I highly encourage you to do such a comparison yourself.>>130670617Pic rel. Both have 12" broadband guitar speakers. The Mustang has a 100W Celestion speaker, I would not call that one a dud. However the Mustang speaker has a much higher power rating to whatever (Jensen?) is in the Deluxe Reverb so the speakers differ quite a bit. But biggest influence is the amp circuit for sure.
>>130671000>middle pickup burnt
>>130671021Thanks m8Blanket - Imogen Heaphttps://voca.ro/1nDKDWOj5AJW
>>130671057>I tuned in the "same" toneSo it's a skill issue.Watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcBEOcPtlYk and maybe any of these https://www.youtube.com/@physik-der-elektrogitarre/search?query=r%C3%B6hre with subtitles. These two have done repeatable, well-documented, thought-out, blind (in the case of the German guy also double-blind) experiments with A/B comparisons.No shit your two combo amps sound different, they have different circuits, potentially different EQ designs, different speaker configurations in different enclosures with different speakers; and you likely didn't A/B them with identical signals, short samples, back-to-back, with the same microphone in the same position (already impossible with different speakers). Your experiment is flawed.

>>130671057Fender isn't exactly a leader in amp modeling. It's not going to be as good as neural dsp or line 6 or boss or universal audio. The universal audio ones that make the modeling a one and done clone may be up your alley if you find the others to have too many options.https://youtu.be/lwE3sw5KQhk?si=pKNmf8lJfl5J-naN

>>130671749IEMs. Anything else gets too hot. That's what they're for so it shouldn't be that bad
>>130671155>>130671729Interesting, will watch. However they are doing mic'ed comparisons and I don't expect that many differences there. What I mean is mostly the playing feel and the sound when you actually stand infront of the amp. The response you get from a tube amp is instant compared to some digital stack, just feels different.
>>130672020Digital gear does introduce some latency because of the A/D conversion and the processing. You know what else does? Standing 6 feet away from the amp instead of 3 feet.

The question is should I get 2 vintage 30’s and run them X pattern in my cab along with 2 of the g12k-85’s? I really like the celestions but people rave about v30’s for high gain stuff.
>>130672257Do you gig with no PA? Then sure. Other than that, you can just make up for any differences by EQing right when you go into the DAW
>>130671693https://voca.ro/17rddSYHEYHt
>>130672257Aside from cheap combo amps, the V30 (1x12) is the only nice speaker I ever had. Its breddy gud. You can check out what Friedman does in configuring his 4x12 cabs that have v30s and greenbacks iirc, he must be doing something right.

>>130672257v30 isn't the only good speaker, but it is goodI feel the same way about speakers as modeling profiles. I listen to demos, but the way they actually sound with my setup is normally completely different.
these are going to be worth a fortune on the used market once they are discontinued. i might get one
>>130672496Well, what physical speaker are you running the modeller output through? You need to compensate for its impulse response, otherwise you're basically stacking two different EQs on top of each other.

>>130673097Im really sorry to tell you this, but there is no difference between a $1500 guitar and a $200 guitar other than the $1500 has better pickups, a floyd rose, locking tuners, you are still going to get buzzing frets on your $1500 that was made in Malaysia. Just find a good local guitar repair shop that can refret and you got an equal guitar
>>130669585Same reason strats need to lose the plastic top. And I'd argue a lot of those vintage plastic sandwich guitars from the 60s were not better for it either.
>>130673157oh yeah? the why no-one's using ibanez grx40 for world tours?
>>130673392fender/gibson mafia pay publishers kickbacks for forcing artists to play name brand guitars for marketing purposes because they have 90% margins on guitars
>>130673405This. There is always a lot of money involved whenever an artist exclusively plays one brand, and in the case of Fagder and Gibbons, the guitars they build for those artists are the handful of models where they actually try nowadays.

>>130673554Start looking into jazz guitar from the early-mid 20th century.
>>130673642Nah fuck that guy. I asked what settings to do on a pedal once. it told me where to put the knobs, then explained why. The explanation made no sense. when I pointed out it's suggestions were achieved by turning the knobs in opposite directions, it was like "o wowzers, my bad! I didn't realize the knobs did that! Ok then, do this instead.." and it was just more nonsense.
>>130672257these cabs never leave your house and you have a baby at home. the speakers you're using don't matter when your amp's volume is at 2
>>130671201he didn't assess shit. did you even watch the video. he just does a series of A/B comparisons so you, the listener, can assess. he never makes a single judgement in the whole video. that's why people like himi could tell a small difference in the recorded tone of tubes vs solid state, but the video clearly shows the main tone differentiator is EQ and gain stackingit's not all about recorded tone though. tubes respond differently to your playing the same way playing in the room with a loud cabinet makes your guitar respond differentlyjim's videos are mostly for people who care about their recoded tone
Would it be correct in saying melody is the story & harmony is the emotions underlying it?
>>130673978I don't see it that way. The chord progression has movement to it and that movement tells a story. The melody is like different people chiming in to tell different details of the story.

I want to practice with my baritone today I think
>>130675041It's when the notes in the chord you are playing (the voices) don't move far (intervallically) to get to the notes of the next chord (i.e. choosing appropriate voicings for chords that are intervallically close rather than jumping around all over the place, seemingly at random). This is often achieved by finding voicings that fit in and around the same area of the neck and close to the same string set. There can also be special attention paid to how the melody note of the chord (the highest note in a chord is *usually* heard as the melody note) moves from chord to chord (this is important in Chord-Melody playing, as the name implies). Frank Vignola has some good stuff on Chord-Melody playing if you're interested in that.
