what kind of music do you play? inb4 everyone is cringy metal.
>>130684800A bunchLots of Takanaka, and the stuff I write is often inspired by Vulfpeck and whatever old funk stuff I turn up
>>130684800rock, folk, country mostlyused to play jazz gigs and for theatre productions too but they're both far from my favorite things to play
>>130684800I play in an alt country band with friends and while it’s fun it isn’t my kind of music. The stuff I record on my own or play with some of those same friends outside of that band is kind of Talking Heads meets a less distorted Pixies I guess, kind of late 70s new wave meets 80s alternative. One of the guys in the alt country thing and I have been talking about doing some Tom Petty tribute stuff purely for fun because we both love Tom Petty

>>130684800used to play my favorite j-rock and skate punk songs now i just play jazz as like a casual academic interest
I just set up a MIJ Strat with a perfectly stable whammy bar even with dive bombs. Ask away. Its no secret theres a "hidden" tuning technique that makes a 70 year old whammy bar as stable as a 300 dollars Floyd Rose.Remember...Made in Japan.

Took the inherited d-35s in to get appraised for insurance. I got quoted 5k, which I was not expecting at all, holy shit. Half that, maybe. Would you anons be kind enough to suggest some humidity control systems for a guitar that lives in its case?My apartment sits at around 55-60 percent humidity, a little lower in the case. Temperature stays in the 72-74 range. At this point, I just have the basic sponge in the hydrometer device
>>130685927that is on the higher end of what most recommend for humidity, but if it's pretty stable you probably don't need anything extrathe best course is to just monitor it and if you start to see it trending higher or lower as seasons change look into humidifiers/dehumidifiers if needed
a wall of amps lets you raise your speakers so you're not playing music your sneakers

>>130686290Fuck no, you can get a suhr for that and it's a piece of shit cbs tele
>>130686290of course not

Should I buy these? I currently have hd560s and just use my tv speakers at the computer
I should buy another 212
>>130685708Jaguar already sound thin and this nigga want thinner
How do I choose a key to write a song in?Outside of your vocal range, I've heard keys don't really matter
>>130686463On guitar? You choose G
>>130686463>find area of neck that I find comfortable during that exact moment in time>noodle into riff ideassinging is for women
>>130686463E minor >>> D minor (drop D) >>> A minor >>> G minor
>>130686463I just play any combination of G C D Em Am and F and move the capo around each song so it sounds different.
>>130686436Thin like my pp, yes. Which fucking sucks because I have above average length but it's just super thin..

Do I *need* a humbucker guitar? I have one single coil S style guitar and I have one T style parts caster but with P90s but am I missing out not having humbuckers?
fuck you, i like it.
>>130685624The winner is the Jaguar. https://youtu.be/xHQKe0vtptE?si=dCU0fQBnx6e4TVPb
>>130686863yeah it's very different, good to have at least one HH. buy a tele deluxe if you want something close to what you already like or go on a gibson adventure.
>>130685617Why does the Jaguar sound so good with distortion? I’ve always dismissed them for the usual reasons everyone dismisses them but after doing a lot of reading on forums and playing around with them at local guitar stores I’m surprised at how much a really like them with distortion to the point that I’m considering buying a Vintera just for high gain stuff.
>>130686962It's basically a strat pickup running through 10k pots

>>130687471Ah yes the iconic menstrual finish Tampaxcaster
>>130687525yum
>>130687473I just stick my phone in front of the amp.
I have one of these js32t king vs and I wanna upgrade the nut and the bridge. It's supposed to be a 12-16 inch compound radius so the bridge should be at 18 inches but I can't find a TOM bridge at that radius anywhere. Would something like a 16 inch radius bridge be okay? Also wanna get a graph tech tusq nut for it because the stock one is plastic garbage. I sit down and the whole guitar goes out of tune. I know it's a cheapshit guitar but I really enjoy playing it and I'd love to spruce it up a little so it stays in tune and plays even better.

I like the Les Paul, 2005 Tobacco Burst Flametop. And I like Strandberg Boden also. Someone please recommend me a yellow guitar, like these 2. Has to be electric.
>>130687608The only yellow guitars for me are Les Paul Juniors and Specials.
>>130684789All gibson solid body guitars are the same thing with a different shape.
>>130687608Squier sonic strat. Though I'd go for the pink one rather.
>>130687591>deftonesYou need to use your AI to make a mesa boogie dual rectifier.
>>130687608Check out how yellow it is https://www.kieselguitars.com/in-stock/155826
>>130684800Bumblefoot, Vernon Reid, Living Color, Funkadelic, Slash featuring Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators, and Red Hot Chili Peppers. Also, I hate on Buckethead.
>>130685279The secret is just in having a heavy trem block and good springs innit
>>130684800I am cringy metal for the most part. I mostly play through Iron Maiden albums, a couple of Megadeth and Metallica albums. I also play some j rock too, from anime openings and Bocchi songs.
>>130686870I'm still convinced those single-coil hums can't possibly be good, what's the reading on that, 6k?
>>130687687Not gonna be the same as a PAF but it can be good

>>130684741>blondesYou like blonde pussy hair huh
>>130687657Ive looked into them a little before but im not even sure where to start with all the different models. Incubus uses a DR combo for their dirt stuff also.
>>130687671Woah you play Bumblefoot? Share something on voca man bumblefoot is sick
>>130686811Michael McDonald doesn't write around riffs.
>>130686832I just want something good instead of shitty
>>130686863Humbuckers aint got no SOVL
>>130687584Did you already buy new tuners?
>>130686863No, you wire in a dummy coil and you get a humbucking guitar but keep the SC sound.
>>130687875Yeah I got a set of gotoh ones (and stupidly cracked the headstock when I screwed in the low e one) and they seem fine but the nut really is the issue. I can turn the high e one for example and the pitch doesn't change for like half a turn. I figure a nut change would be sufficient enough but a guy I brought it to once said there's something faulty with the bridge so I'm thinking I'd change that too. Then if I get it perfectly playable I'd swap the pups for some sd jb/jazz or something.
>>130687805Multiwatt and the 1990s two channel models are the best. Avoid the non-multiwatt three channels.
Any pedal recs for shoegaze? I have a squier strat and a blues jr.
>>130688017Run reverb into your drive pedals. Overdrive, distortion or fuzz. They make pedals that do both. Delay pedal too.
>>130687934I'd say just get rid of it at that point. Go to kiesel and build one to replace it.
>>130688053Wrong
>>130688017Just get an hx stomp
I want my goddamn crypto to go up so I can buy a Fender Custom Shop Bass VI.
How do inversions work for rhythm guitar?Say the current chord is C major but I want to use a chord/triad that has E as the root and C as the 3rd or 5th - is it still c major?Also - should I sell my Katana Mini X & overdrive pedal and just get a tube amp I do not play guitar clean at all.
Think Sweetwater will take a return if I bought new gear a couple months ago?
>>130688132Not unless you can complain in a particularly annoying way
>>130688072What is that?
>>130688115Sell it and buy a marshall dsl40cr
>>130688115In traditional music theory, it is still considered C major, but in my system it is a completely different chord.
Accept it as your LORD https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43qAjtf1kDw
>I want to play Californication >I don't wanna install CDLC
>>130688017ms70cdr+ before distortion, and you try every single effect it hasit can be your tuner, if can be your compressor, it can be your pre-drive eq
are Gibson Firebirds as prone to headstock breaks as some of their other models? Been thinking about getting one but the rumors of the dreaded headstocks leave me wary of the brand entirely
>>130686463in guitar i like composing in D major scale because all the available chords from that scale are easy to playbut i still play with capo on top of it
https://youtu.be/c8_Bq1MdU74?si=LQ1zFIpASJ209qWb
>>130688159>In traditional music theory, it is still considered C majorThanks>but in my system it is a completely different chord.Why thought? It'll still sound basically the same since it's all the same notes, just a different flavor.
>>130688157It's a bedroom amp I was thinking a 1cr or 5cr
Do you guys fully comprehend just how big Firebirds are?
>>130688160sound like shit lole
>>130687473Now this is a vocaroo, take notes pussies, no backing track, guitar + mic.
>>130688302>>130685108
>>13068825820 bare minimum on those. Anything less sounds thin
>>130688295what is lole, man?
>>130688336>loleyou are lole
>>130688317What's the difference between the marshall amps like the DSL or the JVMI want a classic rock tone
>>130688361DSL sounds like shit if you don't replace the speaker and adjust the bias, DO NOT RECOMMEND
>>130688382Then why did that anon recommend a DSL??
>>130688399Because he's retarded, it sounds like shit at bedroom levels and doesn't open up until its louder than you can reasonably yell, this applies to the 20 and the 40, if you play in a garage with no neighbors sure get it.
>>130688361If you can afford a JVM get the JVM. They're outstanding amps that will cover pretty much any marshall tone you want. >>130688382Adjusting the bias on those is easy. He has a cabinet so the speaker wont matter. The V type is a good speaker, but a creamback is better. The 20 only comes as a head.
>>130688361Just buy a boss ir2 and a headrush frfr-108 powered speaker both used. Should cost you $300-350.
>>130688407The 40 has a great master volume and can sound great at loud tv volumes. Maybe learn how to dial an amp in?
>>130688420I just looked at the price damn they're 2 fucking grand!!!Might have to get a DSL - I am deadset on a Marshall though
>>130688430Are we talking head or combos?I am specifically talking about the combo, never fucked with the head.
>>130688430A 40 watt tube amp is loud as fuck at volumes where you actually get break up unless you have an attenuator like a hot plate
>>130688357Fuck you
Be a real nigga and get a Boogie
>>130688449Do you know who you're talking to? A self taught fucking legend, I've never heard any of these songs but I can play right fucking along. And none of you can play Spain and I can play it perfectly.
>>130688443Watch some videos on the 40 combo DSL40CR>>130688448The amp gets its drive from the preamp section. It's not a traditional marshall where the power section needs to be pushed. It sounds better at louder volumes (most amps do) but still sounds really good in the 75-90 db range especially if you push an already dirty amp with an overdrive.
>>130688469I don't care who you are, don't call me lole ever again or I'll beat you up
>>130688480oh wow they did add master volume wow marshall listens to customer feedback I have the older model, I'll eat my crow now with onions sauce
>>130688489Sorry, won't happen again, thanks for being patient.
>>130688489Ok Lowell
>>130684723You’ll never see it on the record.
>>130688489i can tell you're fat from your text
>being worried about spiders in 2026just leave your acoustics and semihollows out on the stands, bros. you don't need cases.
So uh, I've wasted a lot of time and now it dawns on me I actually have to learn to transition between all those chords. At least I know where they are now, but it doesn't make it any easier to play.
>>130684812I recently discovered Takanaka on this thread .That guy is awesomeAll hail, Takanaka
>>130688538Brown recluse is the best spider for tone.
>>130685810If someone gave it to me, I’d take it and say thanks but I wouldn’t buy it, personally
