Why are there three threads? Have we finally ascended to kpop status on /mu/?
TOP "SINGLE COIL GUITAR" (in no particular order):-Telecaster>neck & bridge [different construction of each, with bridge larger and tilted, while the neck has a chrome cover]-Stratocaster >neck, middle, & bridge [classically the same construction on all three, with 6 individual magnets]-Jazzmaster>neck & bridge [flat, unique construction with magnetic pole pieces]-Jaguar>neck & bridge [slender construction like a Stratocaster, but extra 'claw' surround]-1956 Les Paul Custom>neck & bridge [P90 in the bridge with bar magnet under conductive poles; 'Staple' pickup in neck, with 6 adjustable height rectangular magnets for poles]Danelectro Lipstick>[Several examples of the instrument]>bar magnet wrapped in copper wire and stuffed into an old lipstick housingBut wait, there's more!Gretsch and Guild also used unique pickups. Okay, now that I posted this image, I'm gonna look at it more today, as I play guitar.

Can I do metal and hard rock with single coils? I am a beginner and got a Jazzmaster for my first guitar since it looked cool.
>>130892555hard rock yes, but metal has a higher chance of feedback at high gain levels due to 60 cycle hum. you definitely can do it, but you'll need to focus on keeping strings muted when they are at rest.

>>130892673>Thoughts on installing Lollar Regals in my Bridge and using my Jazzmaster as a Versatility Machine?Just dial in the middle position of your Jazzmaster's stock electronics--- if the pickups are modern enough, the middle position should 'buck the hum' a la 'humbucker' (usually referred to as the 60 cycle hum). Changing the pickups is a reversible modification, but if your first post about being a new player who likes the looks of a Jazzmaster, maybe think about playing something from a Jazzmaster user, like Elvis Costello or J Mascis in Dinosaur Jr.?But I mean, Loveless by My Bloody Valentine deserves a mention as well.Any questions related to playing the guitar? Tube amps are very trendy and excellent, but anything that lets you play at an early stage should be looked at with consideration.
Jag pickups are probably my favorite Fender single coil pickup
>>130892817Thanks for the reply.I was mainly aiming for a sort of alt rock, punk and grunge sound with what I wanted to learn, I like metal but it isn't something I am aiming for yet. Might be something for a second, more metal oriented guitar in the future.I got no questions for playing at the moment, I got a basic setup and need no upgrades, at least until I can justify it with better skill, and I know what I suck at and need to practice currently. I'll ask again once I hit a roadblock.I should get back to playing my guitar, I am distracting myself by thinking about gear.
>>130892743that makes no sense, even for heavier strings back in the day with wound g, the b string is so thin with less energy, there is no reason for that pole piece to be decked.>>130892853>Reg fender single with metal around it.nigga

besides just playing more what should I be doing to get a better grasp on theory?I want to be able to internalize scales, but I'm left kinda retarded and directionless in figuring out how to tackle this.Do I just pick a scale and play up and down it over and over, should I just pick a song I like and check out the scales it uses.Really I'm just at a loss for choosing a given scale and how to practice it. In my attempts to practice I have trouble intuitively grasping the theory behind the scale and how it relates or connects to the others. For those who have already made what methods did you use to tackle grasping theory.
>>130893332Can confirm I own 6 different Fender's and Gibsons, pecker is tiny, tone has no balls, scooped like the mids in a metal record.
>>130893531best way to learn theory is practical application, one concept at a time. as far as internalizing scales I recommend putting on a drum track and trying to improvise a solo or hook and only start with a single note. once you feel like you can say anything you want with that note (vibrato, grace notes, ghost notes) then add one more note. repeat this process until you’re using the entire scale in one octave. I honestly wouldn’t worry about theory too much, rely on your ear.
>>130893556the issue is my ear is really bad, I think really what I mean by grasping theory is training to have an ear I can rely on. I like your drum track method. How exactly should I go about it, just pull up a picture of the scale on a fretboard and choose notes from it at whim, or should I be focusing on certain sections?

>>130895689Why doesn't Martin put the volute on D35s? It's supposed to be on all guitars above a 21 trim, but it's not on the 35.Why?
>>130896118I'm not sure, but acoustically, a head and neck joint is inferior in design to a continuous piece of wood. The nut is a vibrational contact point which ideally is in proximity to a headstock for optimal transmission. Mechanical energy is impeded with joints.
>>130893611I would start with the pentatonics since they have less notes. you can start with the root 5th and 3rd since they are typically the easiest but it really doesn’t matter. You’ll be able to tell when you’re ready for the next note. you’ll feel like you’re in a groove and improvising well, then you’ll feel creatively limited by the note selection
I'm tired of Fishman slop
>>130893611>pull up a picture of the scale on a fretboardyes, until you have the scale positions memorized>choose notes from it at whimno, you should have some structure to what you're playing. choose a chord progression, either make one up or pull one from a song. target the notes of the chord
>>130896412pentatonic does not limit you to useful notes. describing the pentatonic as a scale that's restricted as a creative limitation is just incorrect. the reason the pentatonic scale is taught is because it's a subset of many other scales. if you learn the penatatonic and stop there you missed the point

The less the neck moves the longer the string will vibrate. Basically you have no idea what you're talking about lol>>130896118One of the first things you get taught when you apprentice with a luthier is more mass equals more treble response. I don't know what the specs are for the D35 but they're probably attempting to tailor/balance the bass. If it has unscalloped braces that's probably your answer. That or it's a traditional feature that they're preserving on new models.

your all raterd
I dropped acid and played guitar in the dark earlier this week and had the strangest experience. I was playing stoner doom and while you'd think it'd be chill it made me feel really uncomfortable. Started playing death metal and it just felt right. Not just the sound of the music, but the experience of flying all over the fretboard and alternating between tremelo picking and quick power chords just feels right compared to bends and slides and vibrato. Not sure why, but it felt like my body was telling me to stop wasting time with other genres and go full bore into death metal. I'd also really like to go into jazz as I learn more, so I'm delving into music theory.I guess death metal just reminds me of playing danmaku? Where I analyze a stage(riff), route my way through the stage (decide where to place my hands as the song advances), practice until I achieve some level of muscle memory and then try to play through a flow state where muscle memory and rythym take over.I have to say, 6 months in, I'm really loving playing music and its very distinct from how my friends who started their instruments around the same time are experiencing playing music. They always bring it up as something to practice and make time for, but I just feel really drawn to my instrument. I hear music and want to play. I pick it up and I can't put it down even when I play like shit. I don't even worry about keeping the habit. If I don't want to play for a week, I don't. Then the next week I pour hours into it and the time away only served to marinate my brain and hand with the lessons of prior weeks.
>>130897342Stopped read.
>>130897342Heaven yeah bro! Acid and guitar is a winning combo it's so fun to jam for hours and let the inspiration come from wherever
>>130897309looks like two pieces of feces desu. natural blonde finishes look good when they're new and whiter but they all age into an ugly putrid piss color after a few years. the golden oxidized lacquer makes them look like some dark brown piss that's been sitting in a urinal without being flushed for too long
>>130897342>They always bring it up as something to practice and make time for, but I just feel really drawn to my instrument. I hear music and want to play.Some people are really good at the mechanics of art, other people are artists. There is some overlap, but you can't teach someone how to be an artist, just the mechanics of a medium.
>>130897309>feetI'm going to vomit
>>130897154I don't obsess over it, so probably yes.
Is it true I’m only supposed to start on one string?
>>130897158Thank you for sharing your Jr. High education on acoustics.
>>130897166Elic L'Johnson
>>130897441You should start on Zero strings and memorize the bare fretboard first.
>>130896950what if you're playing the 2 do you just not play the third of the 2 you are not making any sense
>>130897158>more mass equals more treble responseNope>they're probably attempting to tailor/balance the bassNope
>>130897411Honestly, I don't think I'm an artist yet in any way shape or form. I don't really have any of the tools to create yet, but I have been keeping an open ear when listening to music in my car and listening to songs with the tabs open. Trying to suss out common songwriting motifs in death metal and music in general. I think that combined with learning theory should get me there. For example, I noticed that people will mirror their tremelo picked riffs with power chord riffs, where the 16th notes are replaced with a power chord with either the high note or low note being played is the same as the 16th notes being played. Probably a no shit insight for most people here, but totally new to me. Screenshot is an example by Dehumanized, but I see this a lot.What stuck me most about my friends though, is they always talk about it like a burden or obligation and treat it as a skill being developed. Never talking about how it makes them feel. Needing reasons to go to play their instruments rather than needing reasons to stop, like other plans or exhaustion.>>130897373I'm still learning to jam. I kinda just take the "death metal scales" Dunn metal guitar talks about on his channel and play them randomly over a beat. I either play them as 16th notes, repeating or not repeating the same note or just turning the note into a power chord. I really enjoyed jamming over frente a frente by Rocio Durcal though on acid. Heard it on sopranos and actually the style of playing, minus power chords, of death metal worked very well over it when I put my amp on the acoustic channel.
>>130893281
More Mass = More ASS
>>130897441I started learning by playing The Noose by Six Feet Under, then moved on to a song with 2 strings, then a song that had string skipping, then songs with power chords. The noose is awful and I did it as a laugh, but when I played it, it seemed like a great beginner song.
>>130897445>no valid argument or rebuttalYeah, I figured as much. Even if my education in lutherie was junior high level my knowledge and understanding of acoustic guitars would still be astonishingly advanced compared to yours.
>>130897509>how it makes them feelThat's exactly what I am talking about. This is the aspect of music that can't be taught.

You don't though.>my knowledge of acousticsWhich is exactly zero.>Neck elasticity is one of 25+ variables contributing to the envelope of a perturbed stringRight, you're so smart that now you've resorted to repeating what I've already said while trying to embellish it with meaningless gobbledygook. It'd be hilarious if it wasn't so pathetic.The best part is you tried to drop/sidestep your claim that a "Martin's glued headstock is an inferior design acoustically" because your realized you had no way to defend it from a mechanical or acoustic standpoint.>Let's get on to your second flawed point from the first argument.My point wasn't flawed, that's why you still haven't refuted it. Because you can't.I'm enjoying making a fool out of you though, keep digging the hole deeper.
>>130898602You are correct, gigging every night and performing like a court minstrel who desperately doesn't want to get beheaded is most certainly the (((industry))), I totally agree with you. But my idea of true success is not having to be a slave to a contract and being able to party like rockstars did in the 80s and fuck chicks, my boy. thats the kind of success I'm talking about

>>130898993>You are correctI know. But then>that wall of delusional fantasies>like something a 12yo would dream up on the bus coming home from schoolI started to cringe but then I just busted out laughing instead as I kept reading, good job.
the one little technique i can't do, and i don't even know if this is real, because i learned about it like a decade ago, is that one harmonic where you bend the string up and down so fast that the note turns into a harmonic.is that a real thing? because i can't do it it's impossible and i'm starting to think that's not even a thing.
>>130898926>mechanically and acousticallyI have now confirmed that haven't read a single book about acoustics.If you want me to elaborate on why headstock joints are inferior, I can.A joint behaves as a mechanical resistor, reflecting transverse waves. "But muh hide glue." Any incongruence in the cellular matrix of the wood causes a condition of impedance. Reflections too close to the nut create far more destructive interference than if they disperse unimpeded through a headstock.We can do this all day. I've enjoyed laughing at your "expertise."
>>130899330Yes and no you vibrate it to keep the energy in the string high then you're still lightly tapping the harmonic node.

Because you can't. Because you don't know anything.>We can do this all dayYou mean you can keep coming up with ways to avoid refuting what I said or defend the claim you made? I'm sure you can, a low IQ monkey furiously dancing away hoping his master will avert his gaze.>I've enjoyed laughing at your "expertise."It's funny, you already realized I'm smarter than you are and that you've long since lost the argument but you still haven't figured out a way off the meathook yet. I'm going to give you a hint: it's because you're stupid and there is no way out of that.Does that help?

https://voca.ro/1nHc5fTSWMwjwhen it comes to doing a scale on a single string, why is ascending harder than descending? or at least it felt like it was harder on this one.i wanna be able to shred, but i fucked this up a million times to get that take... its only 120bpm. Very grim. Any tips on playing faster? I've been doing one of Bernths exercises daily but feel stuck at 180bpm on that one. Feels like progress is very slow if any is being made at all

>>130900955>>130892465
>>130900597The ascending part is hard if it's just done on one string. I think it's harder cause you have to shift your hand up before hitting the last accented note before the phrase repeats to the next sequence. The first descending pattern finishes in one position and neatly starts after the position shift. But maybe I'm understanding it wrong.A bit easier doing the ascending pattern when the 4th note is on the next string ala Paul Gilbert.Some things about speed-it's a byproduct of accuracy, fretboard familiarity, muscle memory, economy of motionAt very high speeds it's really mostly muscle memoryLearn the lick slowly and accurately, then increase the speed. Find out which specific sequence is tricky and is the sloppy one at the right tempo and figure out the mechanics of it one hand at a time.Tried it myself and the one string only ascending pattern is unusual to me since I'm used to 3nps shitehttps://vocaroo.com/1maxq1TmM3D0

>>130900999if you don’t feel it don’t play it. if you don’t know the key ask. only play as much as you think makes the song better; the space is just as important as what’s being played. jamming isn’t rocket science, sometimes just stabbing some chord fragments or simulating something like a horn embellishment is all you need in a jam. the bass/keys are doing the heavy lifting

>>130900989thanks a ton dude. For a while I was really good about starting slow and increasing tempo... I was doing this daily exercise:https://voca.ro/18GcLJ0ZshT6>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngw-XyB4zZ4...but I plateaued at 180. What you hear in voca is me doing 180, then going to 200. For me, my pinky has been the weak link. I basically started (re)learning guitar but correctly using my pinky. Before my pinky would buckle and I would use it in that buckled/locked up state, which I found out was a terrible mistake and hard habit to unlearn. It was basically as weak as it before I started playing guitar. I've strengthened it a ton, but its still a weak link, or at least I think it is. I see mixed stuff about how much one should really use the pinky, and ever since watching a lot of players with that in mind, I notice a lot of people barely use it, so idk.
Are we just going to ignore the other thread?
something I haven't really seen covered on YouTube is alternate picking while palm muting. is there a trick to doing this? one note seems easy enough but it seems a little tricky doing a power chord because on the upstroke the pick seems to sometimes catch on the strings. for like post hardcore or certain pop punk songs, this seems like a critical technique because for higher tempos
Are we just going to ignore why there’s two threads and why the old thread is still up?

can we talk noiseless pickups? thinking about upgrading my squier strat pickups because hum is driving me mad. i just go chugga chugga on the bridge. does it sound close ish to the normal bridge sound? or is it just like the inbetween positions and palm muting sounds funny with heavy distortion. also welcoming any cheap noiseless, even if its just ones to avoid

>>130901694You're welcome m8. Shit's hard damn. The sequenced descent at the start is really fucking me up specially the middle and pinky ones, feels more like a left hand exercise rather than picking. I could barely do 140https://voca.ro/13C88nFAAoHdYou can also add trills as part of your drills, added it at the end of the roo. Aside from two fingered trills I try index middle ring in a chromatic legato then the same on middle ring pinky and try to match the volume and tempo. Even there you can hear my pinky is also weak compared to the ring fingerShawn Lane and Guthrie barely use it, they're on a 3 finger grip, but Paul Gilbert and Buckethead do use the one finger per fret with the pinky like classical guitarists. Most electric shredders aren't classicaly trained and it's really easier to gravitate to what's easier instinctively when you're self taught. That said, GG and Lane do use it to extend their reach depending on the pattern.. and Django Reinhardt existed so we mortals are just full of excuses kek>>130902296Fishman strat set are alright, though depending on how much gain there can still be some noise.

I dug my bass and amp out of a cupboard for the first time in ~10 years and no sounds come from the amp other than a buzzing, which changes volume when I touch the strings. The knob on the left in pic related is loose and the entire thing will spin around once it reaches one edge of the 'normal' rotation. I can't see any soldering that looks off or any wires that look broken or disconnected.I've never opened up a bass before, and I only have a rudimentary grasp of electronics, but it seems to me obvious that the knob on the left is the likely culprit. How would I go about removing it from its socket? I tried giving the grip on the front a tug but it didn't feel right, so I figured I would ask before being too forceful.
>>130906614Ah fuck the image rotated, when I say left please think right, i.e. the knob farthest away from the jack.
