tfw checked nitro but there’s an obvious point where it starts and ends. I’m thinking about force checking the rest of it with hot and cold just so that the whole thing looks even instead of a glaring halfway point but the thought of intentionally doing that just feels really stupid
>>130721493>You should het a looper and play actual basslines not just drone Es. Just dial the loop volume down after thatIt's not a good solution for me imo. I said before that my drummer cannot play quietly (or even anything below max volume) so likewise he will not be able to follow a loop. He's a pretty new player, the concept of following something else for time instead of him creating it will be too complicated. I've tried this before with many drummers and most of them can't do >>130721257thanks for the rec, I gotta get a compressor for sure I'll scope that one out. All I've got for now is an EQ and Tube Screamer lol. The past 15 years or so I've pretty much just plugged my guitar into an interface > ableton so I've got like no pedals now>>130721476yeah I got the amp used from a friend, it worked well at first but it started cutting the volume down massively when I'd over power it, like, volume knob at 5 would lead it to just ducking the fuck out. I replaced all the tubes because idk what else to try and it didn't resolve it. It never was incredibly loud at 2 but 5 used to be plenty. Even when it did work good enough the highs were still an issue while the lows were ringing. Not sure if I should try to fix it up or just get a new amp
>>130723344that's true, but so is 3 pickups being too many due to signal robbery.simple as.

>>130723460oh, anon...
>>130723464Sorry, I didn't realize you also had a masters degree in electronics engineering and a decade of work experience in the field
>>130723460The magnets are always pulling on the strings slowing them down from vibrating that's physics and that's a fact.
>>130723474Well I do so trust the experts.
>>130723475The magnets accelerate the string by the same amount on the way down that they slow it down on the way up. They don't do shit.
All electric guitars sound basically the same anyways and 90% of em look dreadfully tasteless or basically the same anyways
>>130723490>The magnets accelerate the stringNo.
>>130723508Right, who has ever heard of a magnet attracting a metallic object
Too much magnetic pull kills string sustain
Remember guys, when you jump on a trampoline, it's gravity that eventually stops your momentum
>>130723527Sure, if the magnet changed polarity you'd get acceleration.Since they don't they won't.

>>130723832P90s sound the best at low to med volume.
>>130723828>>"ai only cares about marketing and is not the librarian of the entire internet."I agree, it is. The problem is that the majority of people hate being shown that the beliefs they hold are incorrect, and too lazy to properly research information before sharing it, and too uninformed to have opinions. Add the fact that the vast majority of publications have monetary motivations, and that there is more money to be made from suckers buying overpriced tech based on marketing babble than from funding research that may come to unfavourable conclusions, and you end up with an AI that has an enormous bias because the vast majority of the material that its output is based on is biased towards extracting shekels from cattle pockets.

>>130723858>the fact that the vast majority of publications have monetary motivations, and that there is more money to be made from suckers buying overpriced tech based on marketing babble than from funding research that may come to unfavourable conclusionsi understand what you're saying, but using less components ultimately costs less so the point you're making in this specific case is out the window.
>>130724143this dude playin' type-o.
>>130724143bro got that zombie green
>>130724255>using less components ultimately costs lessWe were talking about the supposed damping of string vibrations due to magnetic effects. I will concede that eddy currents in the string will, in fact, cause out-of-phase magnetic fields that counteract that of the polepieces and cause some amount of damping; however, the strings aren't that great at conducting current and the magnetic field strength is extremely limited there, which means that the effect is inaudibly minuscule at any reasonable pickup height.Regarding the meta discussion about the credibility of sources: Maybe don't blindly trust the AI, unqualified personnell (i.e. journalists, even those proclaiming to be experts), and people who have a conflict of interest when publishing research that may go against their financial interests. Unless you're being paid to shill products (which I can kind of understand, even if I find the concept abhorrent), the only reason that I can imagine for your dismissal of ideas that could save you money and effort in tone-chasing is that you're subconsciously afraid of being wrong. There is nothing wrong with admitting fault, or accepting that beliefs you hold may be incorrect. To err is human, just don't be willfully ignorant.
>>130724162>>130724236Nice
Clarification >>130724342By "inaudible" I don't mean "I have a hearing skill issue", I mean that the effect is an order of magnitude smaller than the variation in dynamics that even a professional player will have, even with short takes snippets, even when he's trying to match the performance exactly. Not to mention an amateur player "A/B'ing" completely different gear with large intervals between takes, "feeling out the vibes" and attributing any difference to a single arbitrary factor.

>>130724013just pointing out that anon is technically correct but practically irrelevant
>>130723849right, thats why the black sabbath record was recorded on p90s. famously a quiet band
>>130724520Before switching to his SG Tony was playing a white '62 Stratocaster with a rosewood board. Black Sabbath is inherently a single coil band and there's nothing you do about it.
>>130724544Preaching to the choir. That's why my first guitar was a strat, I was obsessed with sabbath and the late 60's early 70's psychedelic sound.
P90s sound great at any volume, more importantly they need to be dialed for what you’re trying to achieve
>>130724559I think heavy riffs and metal sounds cool on a Strat anyway. I'm not really arguing.
Imagine him sucking your cock while he plays
Whether or not your pickups sound good is primarily what amp you're playing into and what role you're playing in the overall composition. P90s into mid-heavy Marshall amps were just an extreme measure to get an extreme punchy sound.
Early heavy metal kids like Tony were basically the crabcore kids of their day. Just doing something over the top for the sake of it.
>>130724544>Black Sabbath is inherently a single coil band

>>130723755good idea. you'll get your money for nothing and your chicks for free.
>>130723919I'm playing a regular tremolo guitar and I want to drop a floyd in it. And I misunderstood your post, my bad. In any case, I just found out Schaller makes nuts with different radii so that's probably what I'll go for. It's gonna be a 41.4 mm but I'd rather that than 42.9. Now I need to decide if I wanna get a Schaller Floyd to match or get a Gotoh trem and shim the saddles.
Mustang Dynamic Vibrato > Floyd Lols
dive bombs and whammy < slightly wiggling a bigsby
>>130724981Perfect tuning stability >
>>130724957what is a 'regular tremolo guitar'? why do you think you even need a locking nut? not all trem systems need them and its an added complication
>>130725032It's a guitar with a regular (2 point) trem and I wanna put a floyd in it. I was looking at the gotoh one cause it's the cheapest and I like how it does the arm insert but gotoh nuts are 14 inch radius which is why I was looking for the nut separately.
‘are floydssimple as
>>130725126not a drop in replacement at all just buy a different guitar, it's not worth it at all
>>130725126you sure you can even put a locking nut on a guitar that has a conventional nut slot? sounds to me like you just don't have the right guitar. you may not wanna hear it, but when you get into modding crap like this it gets very complicated very quick, and eventually you have a janky unstable guitar that isn't working as designed. i've modded a handful of guitars over the years, and the best lesson I learned is to never buy something you think you might wanna change. If it isn't perfect for what you want it for, then it isn't for you. changing stuff around gets expensive really quick too, and first time around you are pretty much guaranteed to break/damage something. pic related is a guitar i modded just so you know I'm not bsing you entirely. I added a d-tuna, milled out a cavity for it, and rewired the entire thing with fender noiseless hots and a shawbucker iirc. I had to also mill down the single coil cavities bc they were too short for the added electronics of the noiseless pups
>>130725222I know it's not a drop in replacement. I need to replace the trem on it anyway so might as well go the extra mile. >>130725250Yeah I've seen a few videos on it so I know it's doable. I wouldn't do it myself though, I'd give it to a pro. To be honest I still need to carve out an arm contour on it to see if I'd wanna take it further but that's what I'm hoping for. The neck on it is superb so I really want to play it more, plus I really do want a floyd guitar. Putting one on this one is way cheaper than getting a new one, especially since most come with a shitty special even in the 1k price range. And I do need a new trem for this one because mine is shit so I might as well take it a step further and put a nice floyd in it.
>>130725306i basically read this is>cool story dude, im still gonna fuck my guitar for almost as much money as it would cost just to get a new onegood luck dude
>>130725250>you sure you can even put a locking nut on a guitar that has a conventional nut slot?Yeah, of course, you can either have neck cut by professional luthier and get a locking nut installed, or (a much cheaper option) install a new neck.Similarly, it would be a much better idea to just get a different body for it, already routed for floyd rose. So, the best option of all, is to just buy a different guitar for floyd rose. Especially considering that once set up, that guitar will be married to a single tuning, it's the only good way to floyd rose.
>>130724981mustang cigar bridge is my favorite trem i've used. don't put the bar in it, just wobble it a bit with my wrist. whammy bars go from 1 to 100 in a way that is obnoxious to me
>>130725339>whammy bars go from 1 to 100 in a way that is obnoxious to metwo words:>skilland then>issue
>>130725324I can get a floyd and a locking nut for about 150-200 plus another 50-100 for the tech to install it for me. Please tell me one guitar for about 300 that comes with a schaller/gotoh floyd.
>>130724544Richie > tony
I'm going to get a smart guitar while they're on sale for prime day. Should I get the basic bitch one for $270 or the JT which to my understanding has better pickups, a higher wattage speaker, and compatibility with their pedal for $330?
>>130725395>I can get a floyd and a locking nut for about 150-200it doesn't appear as though you can based on your posts>plus another 50-100 for the tech to install it for meNope. You probably couldn't find a tech to string it for less than that lmao
>>130724726I think his had p90s anyway
>>130725395sure thing lolhttps://guitarsgarden.com/collections/fftl/products/new-firefly-fftl-classic-model-electric-guitar-skull-resonance-color
>>130725474Just buy a parlour acoustic instead
>>130725496The schaller nut is 40 and the floyd is 100-ish for the gotoh and about double is I go for the schaller one. A little more in that case but still. And I dunno what techs you go for but that's not my experience. >>130725516Too edgy for me but I'll be damned.
When you record music, do you reuse the same takes throughout the song (like copying and pasting the same take for every chorus) or do you record new takes every time?
>>130725543I'm curious how you think a parlor guitar is in any way similar.
nta but a parlor guitar is gonna be playable at that pricepoint while the guitar you are looking at is a toy
>>130725603obv meant for >>130725579
>Turn amplifier up-it's too loud>Turn it down it's too lowI hate them
>>130725603I have plenty of guitars. I want to try out an electric guitar I can play wherever without an amp.
>>130725578depends if its just a quick idea hashing sure, but if its the actual mix mix, then no, i'm gonna try to record at least 5-10 solid takes of a part and use them accordingly or comp them down to a couple of ideal stems. if you want it to sound robotic/synthetic then maybe you could use same take but i wouldn't do that outside of like edm or something like synthmetal high gain shit. for a rock track I'm trying to play as much of the song as possible on guitar in one take, and I'm doing multiple takes, as many as I can stand to do really... it gets exhausting after a certain number of tries and you get diminishing returns and just start playing worse.
>>130725629you can play any electric guitar wherever without an amp. do you actually mean to say you want to play an electric guitar with an amped sound wherever but without an amp?
>>130725696do you mean to be the most pedantic dickhead you can for no reason?
>>130725671Same here. It's tempting to reuse a track once you've nailed it, but it ends up sounding a bit off like you're using midi or something.
>>130725515Everybody knows humbuckers have no SOVL
>>130725250that clamp behind the nut is not the same as a real locking nut, that's the aftermarket gayler way of doing things and it doesn't stop string from binding at the nut, not a real double locking trem and it's not gonna stay in tune the way a normal one would
>>130725711no i just assumed you are a fucking idiot for A) buying that thing and B) phrasing your question retardedly. was i wrong?
>>130725610It's small, it's portable. It helps you practice, and it's not tied to a chinesium app that is going to lose support within 5 years and become useless
>>130725723no
>>130725723You said no, but you meant yes. Am I wrong?No one with a functioning brain would read this in context>>130725629and be even slightly confused and think they just don't know you can play an electric guitar without an amp. Kill yourself at your earliest convenience.
^^^° unc ^^^
>>130725474>comes with a sounding rod
>>130725763The app will be gone from the appstore and the chinese battery will be fucked within 5 years. If you're cool with that buy it, it's not like it's expensive so why not even for the fun of the gimmick. Otherwise I would say buy a parlour, you'll get better and more consistent playing a steel string over an electric anyway. If it can play backing tracks or has a built in looper it may be cool to just use as a couch guitar though.
>>130725721maybe you are thinking of the original hm with the kahler. this one is a reissue like pic related... it's not a clamp, its a long string tree for break angle
>>130725826>The app will be gone from the appstore and the chinese battery will be fucked within 5 yearsfull expecting this to be true, at which point it just becomes a "dumb" guitar you have to plug into an amp. I'm just debating if the extra 50 bucks is worth the slightly upgraded version of it. >If it can play backing tracks or has a built in looper it may be cool to just use as a couch guitar though.I'm not sure about backing tracks but it does have a looper. I'm getting it pretty much exclusively as a couch guitar.

For me it’s gotta be a Jaguar, specifically this fiesta red Japguar. I have an even better Jag but this one just fits like a glove and hits a lil bit differently. Nothing beats a good Jag/Jazzmaster trem, they’re so versatile and can be fine tuned in a way that’s superior to a Strat or Mustang let alone a Bigsby. The Jaguar is Fenders ultimate guitar, their other models have some overlap that a Jag sits outside of tonally.

>>130723604NTA but just in case anyone is curious, this one is confusing the effect that extra potentiometers associated with more pickups have on tone with the minor loss of sustain from magnetic dampening. Sustain is not tone.

>>130722987You guys shilled me "Absolute understand guitar", but isn't this g chord totally wrong?
>>130729410You could play it as shown on the sheet. G major is G-B-D so you can either leave the B string open or press 3rd fret to turn it into a D as both are part of the chord.However it is much more common to do middle finger A string and ring finger low E with the B string open, since that makes it easy to shift fingers for A minor chord, E major etc.
>>130729410No thats a d note on the 5th string 3rd fret. It's a doubled 5th instead of a doubled 3rd.
Guitar is a wasteStop playing it

I love fucking my pedals
>>130727486I’m not sure of the specs on that, but maybe consider a Vintera III as well, those have CTS electronics, cloth wiring, a mute, and I have to say, my V III Jag is the most well set up Fender I’ve ever pulled out of a box. It blows away the AVII Jazzmasters I tried when it comes to build and QC and it’s not even close. That AVRI Jag is a bit older I think so you’re probably good in that regard, but something to consider if it’s the same ballpark price wise. The V IIIs also come with shielded cavities. It’s one of the best sounding Jags I’ve played up there with actual vintage models, they really nailed it.

How hard is it to change pickups and solder them in for someone who’s never soldered anything before? I’ve got an old Strat and the bridge pickup is dying and losing output and I need to replace it.
>>130731889pickups don't die. they are wire wrapped around a magnet. it's likely something else in your electronics that has a poor connection
>>130731936Can't they lose fidelity and need to be remagnetized if they experience a physical shock?
>>130731984did you strike the magnet directly with a hammer several times?
>>130730598I back fender for two reasons: primarily for the seethe it’s causing finook, but also because that is their shape, and so is the Tele, only a cocksucking commie would disagree, one whom sucks the cocks by choice. Should fender give the smaller company’s a pass? Eh maybe, but I’m all for them charging a licensing fee to dentist union members like PRS.
>>130728746I just bought one of these bc I genuinely thought it sounded super cool, but then my bandmates kind of made fun of me for it, and suddenly I hear/read people trashing them. I dont get it whats wrong with using a metalzone

I'm only starting guitar, what's the technique he uses at the beginning? Is it hard? Could I do that after one year? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FE1zuVpABs
>>130732639Ligma. You'll be able to do it in like 6 months
>>130732639its called fingerstyle and its very easy to pick up, this video is good https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UU4yMkDdBwbut focus on good chord playing and strumming too
>>130732697Kek'd>>130732772Ty bro
>>130732772>fingerstyle and its very easy to pick upNo it isn't finger style is way harder than using a pick
>>130732959Depending on what you are playing. Are you new?
>>130732986>Are you newSomewhat. I started playing a year and a half ago but I've barely practiced fingerstyle. Different fingers picking different strings at different times is just difficult.
>>130732959i never said it was easier than using a pick, but fingerstyle clicked fast for me as a beginner
>>130733005a good place to start with fingerstyle is comping a bossa nova song with shell voicings. you only use three fingers and you're either playing thumb, middle+ring, or all three
>>130733014fingerstyle is its own style. it's easy to play fingerstyle arrangements with fingerstyle. it's hard to play non-fingerstyle arrangements with fingerstyle
>>130733005It's tough for you because you barely tried it
How do y'all come up with strumming patternsI'm new to rhythm guitar
I hate this new era of post punk goth chorus guitar jangle bullshit. They never introduce anything new or interesting
>>130733034>it's tough for you because you barely tried it>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3LHCbGmJt4I mean this seems objectively pretty difficult, playing melody syncopated with the bass line
Tremolo before or after reverb?
There are no rules to music
>>130733154This is true but the best way to learn what works is to learn theory and learn off that
>>130733114Do you want the tails to be modulated? Yes -> after, no, smooth tails -> before.
Bros my birthday is in two weeks help me pick out a new pedal
>>130733114Whatever you think sounds good. Fender amps always had tremolo after reverb and I love the sound of spring reverb and spring tremolo in Fender amps so I’ve always put tremolo after reverb on my boards.
>>130733197music theory is like physics. human beings think in terms of rules so applying rules to things helps us understand organic systems
>>130733221No more pedals, Will
for bass 3 finger plucking, its really weird how much faster i can play gallop patterns compared to triplets, i can easily do 170bpm 2x 16th 1x 8th gallops but im struggling with consistent 130bpm triplets
>>130733221why do you need a rattler AND a rat
>>130733221Buy a big titty hooker instead
>>130733221Distressing lack of EQ pedals
>>130732391Fender stepped in to a fight they can't win.Their default judgement against a Chinese guitar maker might as well be written on toilet paper.Like apple instead of innovating they are litigating not by curved corners on a rectangle but over curves on a guitar.And they've already started backpedaling.

>>130733741>>130733742Samefag
>>130733648They can't do shit on asian domestic markets, but they can/will ban western vendors from importing these.This whole stunt is mostly targeting German vendor Thomann, who is the biggest instrument vendor in the world. If you check their guitar listings, they got hundreds of models of their "Harley Benton" house brand, which they manufacture in asia. People say they are good - better than a Squier for sure. They are selling like crazy.Thats also the reason Fender filed the entire design copyright cease and desist over a Germany based law firm. Their loss of market share against Harley Benton is real.>>130732391stfu, Strat shape has been around for 70 fucking years.Trying to copyright this shit now is such a laughable desparate move. Top notch Super Strat guitars aren't even made by Fender.
>>130733792Thomans a fag
>>130733792>Strat shape has been around for 70 fucking years.Unironically doesnt matter, PRS is making Strat ripoffs today, so Fender can still tell PRS to fuck off today.

>>130723416Is there a reason why febder pickup poles don't follow the radius? If it did it would make sense but that stepping seems to make no sense, especially considering how b seems to be decked then it's such a light string.

>>130727574Is this a jagelecaster or a teleuar?
>>130726661If we're doing the sexy headstock game, there is but one true answer...
>>130734207Mogged by Epiphone
>>130733988He's already kicked their ass once in 2009. All he has to do is present the same argument and he'll kick their ass again in 2026. Sorry fender your design is public domain.
>>130734124If you pay for custom shop it does. $4,000 please
>>130734342>public domainIf it was actually public domain the case would be thrown out, stupid
>>130734124That specific guitar is either a 1962 or 1965 reissue and therefor it uses vintage correct staggered pole pieces with its vintage correct 7.25” radius. Back then the G pole was was high as it was because wound Gs were common.
>>130734124Some amount of EQing, I guess Leo didn't like the b string much. I was wondering about that on the Strat I bought (used) recently
>>130726976
>>130734571It was in the us.And now it will be in the EU
>>130734754It's because fender guitars were played/tested/r&d'd on fender amps which are ice pick in eardrum levels of bright. the staggered pole pieces cut down on that
>>130734824Telecaster polepieces are flatQ&A didn't have standardized amps at the time but they would have been Tweeds in the 50s which are a lot more midrangey and less piercing than the Blackfaces of the 60s
>>130734824>>130734894
>>130734342What law school did you go to retard?
>>130734894Tele pickups are from lap steel guitars whose necks were flat.
>>130734906Ok? Your (?) post was about amps and not neck construction.
>>130734913The radius of the pole pieces comes from the radius of the neck on a strat. tard.Teles were thrown together with parts from other instruments. That's why the pole pieces are flat.
>>130734902I work at the law office of Lettuce Turnip and Pea.So stick it.
>>130734936The pole pieces on Strat pickups don't follow the neck radius though. They're all over the place. Neck geometry is out as the (only) reason.This post >>130734824 mentioned the amps they used during development and quality control, but he's wrong since his argument assumes that amps with characteristics similar to the Blackface would have been used, when Tweeds were what they actually used. That's not the (sole) reason either.
>>130734962You're talking about vintage staggered which is not the norm in strats
>>130734962>They're all over the placethe staggered poles in that first strat photo arent all over the place, theyre in the same place as every other staggered pole pickup that vintage strats used until fender changed to a flatter 9.5 radius with a different stagger to match. the e and a are low, the d is higher, the g is even higher due to the wound g, the b is low and the e is low. vintage 7.25 stagger pickups all have the b lower than the e, it isnt just some random arrangement of heights that changes pickup to pickup or guitar to guitar.
>>130734992Here's the real reason for staggering: The people developing them figured there's a tonal difference, it cost nothing to implement (you literally just push the polepieces up or down a tiny bit) and they could sell it as an upgrade over the more boring-looking flat ones.There IS a sonic difference but I doubt they went through the trouble of meticulously minmaxing the heights, recording DI signals under lab conditions, carefully measuring the exact output signal amplitude given an exact plucking amplitude and speed at a specific location along the string while also changing strings between takes and ensuring that their respective parameters were exactly equal. I know I sure as shit won't bother doing that.If your g string is way too loud -- just push the bobbin down a bit. There, you're done.
>>130733524Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a cage..
>>130735032>it isnt just some random arrangement I agree. However, I doubt they went through a meticulous testing process for even the first design, nevermind each later iteration. They thought about the theory behind it for a few minutes, set them up however they thought they should be set, maybe went through 2 rounds of vibe-testing and then just recorded the current setting to be re-used on all production models.
>>130734962Nta but it's the still the same type of amp regardless of if it's blackface blonde tweed silverface etc
>>130735111Please enlighten me as to what you think determines the "type" of an amp, other than the marque's logo
