This thread shall be very very schizo!
Source tells me Eric is stable.Please god
if someone actually died and you guys think that's funny to joke about then I'm probably done posting here
>>131320390He got crushed by a JC-120 while he was trying to put it on top of his Mesa for a picture.
>>131320390Hopefully two people were violently murdered and there'll be more to come.
>>131320415I heard his sideways jc120 finally exploded. He should have listened to us.
eric had the best amps the best guitars and the best room with the best paint color
>>131320390I’ll still shitpost but I’m finished posting anything gear related or playing related.
>>131320498>eric had the best ampsI mog him.
>>131320518OH NO NOT THAT!ANYTHING BUT THAT!
Started playing the bass again after 10 years. I need a new amp and want a head + separate speaker box. What's the current go-to for a small practice amp? I don't want any inbuilt effects, also no tubes.
>>131320532Lmfao
>>131320564TC Electronic Thrust BQ500 500-watt Compact Bass Head. $199. You know you want it.
>>131320390Eric was balding so no loss really
>>131320498there’s no reason to own more than one electric and one amp. he owned a bunch of used cookie cutter assembly line guitars and amps.
>>131320641retarded poor cope
>>131320678you’ll understand when you get better at playing and realize what specs you actually want on a guitar. he could’ve had a masterbuilt guitar and actually relic it himself by playing instead of a guitar with turd smears.
even poorer cope
>>131320596Neat, I'll check this one out.>ships in 6-8 weeksth-thanks Thomann... But yeah, probably gonna go for 400W minimum.
>>131320641every single guitar player you admire owns more than one guitar and amp though
>>131321486I don’t admire guitarists
>>131321622No one admires you
>>131321734I admire how gay he is!
>>131321866
>>131320732you'll understand when you start playing shows. no actually, you specifically definitely won't
>>131321911no one in gg plays show. most of them cant even play
>>131321967>everyone is a shut in loser like meyeah i sometimes forget why i rarely post here. thanks for the reminder, mr crab
>>131322043Yeah sorry bro, industrial noise and outsider music aren’t real genres.
When playing a single vibrato note do you play it Clapton style where you move your hand up and down and slightly bend the string to get a vibrato effect or do you move your hand slightly up and down the neck with your finger not leaving the fret like the motion a violin/cello player does? Everyone always seems to do it the Clapton style but I’ve always done it the other way, it’s more subtle but has always just felt more comfortable to me.
>>131322195retarded question. just think about it for a moment
>>131322195I don't think about it but generally only do classical style on the bottom string
>>131322299and by bottom string I mean the top string
>>131322311>the top stringand by that I of course mean the bottom string
And by top sting I mean I'm homosexual.
>>131322299that style of vibrato works on fretless but not on fretted instruments for obvious reasons. functionally it’s no different that electric guitar vibrato but you’re just getting rid of all your mechanical advantage
Bros, I started Metal Method to learn the guitar and so far its been only pentatonic scales. Please tell me it wont be boomer licks until the end...
>>131322328it works well enough on the bottom (top) string. I also use 9s and have very strong, manly hands.
>>131322334Never heard of it but based on the name unless Iommi wrote it you should be shredding harmonic minor licks in no time.
>>131322328>doesn’t work on fretted instruments Go pick pick up your guitar and do it and tell me you can’t hear it.
shut up reatrd
guess this one is the retard containment

>>131322380Guess gain. I have a professionally tested 106 IQ.
>>131322403>Guess gain.
>>131322344why don’t you record yourself to a backing track and listen back to it first
PAF in the bridge Super Distortion in the neck. Simple as.

Does anyone have experience with chink alnico pickups?My jazz bass pickups died and i dont want to pay for overpriced pickups that cost more than the entire bass.
>>131322531>basslmao
>>131322549Yes, I'm a red blooded ooga booga caveman. Got a problem skinny string boy?
>>1313225319 times out of 10 they are severely underwound because they cheap out on copper. if you are really desperate call around all the guitar shops and see if they have a Squier pickup they pulled out of something. every tech keeps a box of parts
>>131322600also pretty rare for both pickups to just up and die. have you checked for another source for the problem?
What's the deal with gg?
>>131322607Not both, its bridge pickup and only one pole. Not world ending but its annoying.
>>131322531>Does anyone have experience with chink alnico pickups?no
>>131322531Just save up, the scatter winding that hand wound pups have is what gives it the special sound.Also good chance your pups are still good, I would advice you to check your wiring.
>>131320518>and nothing of value was lost
>bot software crashed again
>>131322549Keys is objectively the highest IQ of any group.Lead Guitar is the second highest.
All my life I thought the left strat looked better but seeing them side by side I realize it's the right one. How do you play guitar?
>>131323141left will sound more like a strat, maple fretboards add more snap to the note attack >inb4 tonewood seething go be deaf for all frequencies above 10khz somewhere else
Why aren't Aluminum necks way more common? Because they aren't stock to really any guitars? You would think every 1 in 5 guys you would see someone using one.
what the fuck did i miss? did the guy with the gray room who posted the same fucking set up in every thread actually die?
found him
>>131323121whatever helps you sleep at night
Why are you all gay
>>131323422comes with the territory (guitar)the bass players are the only reasonable people in this general time and again
>>131323422not gay just hizakisexual
https://vocaroo.com/19Wz69e0bQRs>ctrl+F>voca>0/0Guess I gotta be the first, then. Some raw black metal coming through.Just thought about how much I hate blackgaze, DSBM and atmoshit.Bathory got it right the first time when they made black metal punky, chaotic and raw.
>>131323174>maple fretboards add more snap to the note attackEbony is bright as fuck lil bro
>>131323548Black Metal was never good. Punk's influence on modern music has been a disaster and "raw" is a synonym for "shitty".
>>131323408OH NO
Saturday night's alright for noodling.
>>131323702rock 'n' roll began as simple, fun music for the kids which punk wanted to bring back when prog made it too reddityif you don't like punk, you don't like rock
>>131323408Is he sitting on the black blues anon couch??
>>131323408That's not him, I'm not going to go into details but if you really do find him I'll confirm it
>thread for smart fellas gets deletedguess I'm stuck with the fart smellas then
>>131323875Sounds better than any of the vocas ITT
>>131323838how?
>>131323885The reason he knows is because he is rosewood tele anon trying to do damage control by convincing people that it's not him
>buy handcrafted necks from people locally or on the internet>gives a shit about the quality of each one, low production, has a reputation to protect>everything's given timeHow different would this really be, from a neck from a US or Japanese factory? The neck is probably the most important part after the pickups. They're not even that expensive. Have you tried this, and did it transform your instrument?
>>131323885None of you are beyond my reach, if you roll the dice and come up a winner I'll call it. That's the only way to play the game fairly>>131323912No, I'm a neutral participant and I would consider that cheating. Fair is fair, post his name or his face and I'll call it

>>131323969rg, lp, rg7, tele, rg8
Why is Rosewood Tele anon such a microceleb ITT? His guitar is cool but not that remarkable, his posts aren't that interesting so what gives? Is there some lolcow lore I'm missing?
>>131324074don't even know who that is desu
>>131324074a few people like to draw attention to themselves occasionally. why? I don’t have a clue
>>131324074stop posting about yourself in third person
>>131324109Fuck. You got me.
>>131323408holy…… delete this…….>>131323838I found me>>131324074I don’t even post that guitar hardly at all anymore, and only lurk and occasionally post without any pics. Every once in a while I’ll post a dumb pic. It’s just one or two anons always bringing up that Tele even though it’s an old news guitar. >>131324139I got me
>>131323969Need a ricken for dat jangle
>>131323969a single guitar with coil tapped humbuckers and a skilled set of hands
>>131323548this nigga playin' beans
>>131324216So, are you sitting on the BBA couch? You two meet up for jam sessions?
>>131324301>BBASAN DIEGO CALIFORNIA
>>131324301Actually he doesn’t want you to know this but he doesn’t even own a couch anymore, once his govt gibs got cut off he sold nearly everything he owns to afford his 345
>>131324301He’s asked me to “jam” his “session” if you know what I mean but I turned him down because I’m not gay and he turned out to be a homosexual deviant

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eV1oGAvaL0Yhow cum zork wald can shit out pentatonicslop 10x more compelling than anything anyone in /gg/ have did do ever have done do make?
>>131324547because /gg/ could literally shit out a flawless masterpiece and everyone would still say its shit because they are flawed human beings who cannot stand anything positive no matter how much objective reality disagrees with their subjective experience.
https://voca.ro/1mySF8gYOh93
>>131324555>because /gg/ could literally shit out a flawless masterpiecethis is where you're wrong, kiddo
>>131324586>>131324574witerally just did
>>131324586it's craig who posted that, he's got... let's just say ""issues"" and let it go ok
>>131324586did you really just take a rhetorical statement literally? This is exactly what I'm talking about, who gives a shit what a bunch of mentally ill retards say? If you're really good and you play with actual musicians that have working empathy you'll get told exactly how good you are and if you are bad they tell you why and how to improve none of this "Hurr its shit", just a bunch of drooling retards the most vocal never sharing any of their playing because they don't actually understand music and it would be quickly apparent that their opinion is worth jack shit
>>131324547>anyone in /gg/ have did do ever have done do make?Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?
>>131324623>If you're really good and you play with actual musicians that have working empathy(then you wouldn't be on /gg/)
>>131324574acoustic noodleslop has got to be the most boring, uninspired thing anyone can do with six strings
>>131324623>wall of seethe AND copenigga /gg/ overdosing over here lol
is there a website or app where I can put a song or guitar sample and it tells me how to achieve that tone?
>>1313247032 sentences is a wall to the drooling retards in this thread noted.
>>131324689post roo
>>131324689if you're not playing the harmony bass and melody all at the same time it really is rather dull.
>>131324711make your own toan

>>131324783that or pay Rick Rubin a lot of money to tell you what this anon >>131324752 did for free
>>131324741Not gonna happen, the guys who shit on every voca in /gg/ are the ones who never post anything of their own playing.
>toneyou should really worry about learning to play first. you’ll understand tone over time
>>131324714>still madlol
>>131322673guitar players are a surly lot

Churchill and Lady Astor were lifelong rivals, often trading vicious and equally public barbs. Once after a particularly vicious session at Parliament, Churchill came across her at a evening party and asked her if she should like to hear a joke, by way of a peace offering. The Lady assented. 'Lady Astor. Do you know the difference between jam and jelly?'Lady Astor could only admit that she did not.Churchill leaned in conspiratorily and said, softly but matter of factly, 'I'm going to fuck you in the ass'.This is a true story.
>>131325069ur a liar tho u never leave until you pass out you just go into lurk mode thats not leaving little liar liar pants on fire
>131325082well dang, you sure got me
>>131324821>>131324623>>131324555You genuinely believe your shit playing is good when it isn't, lolLet's make it clear so even your retarded ass can understand: no one with any common sense opens /gg/ to compete with your schizo delusions of grandeur. You exist solely to entertain us because your life has zero value outside of that function. None. If you killed yourself tomorrow no one would even notice you were gone. That's how little your life matters. You're just another 4chan lol cow in a long line of 4chan lol cows and not even an interesting or notable one either, you've even managed to fail at that somehow.But see, that's what makes it funny: you honestly have no idea that's what you actually are lmfao
>>131325069Baby please don't go.

I understand lashing out at people can be cathartic. I'm not really a big fan of people having cathartic experiences. The world's shitty enough as it is. Bottle that stuff up and keep it inside for a change. To yourself.
>>131325308that usually continues the cycle, or just leads to some sort of mass shooter
>>131325308>>131325312No one gives a fuck what you think about anything

>>131325312I guess catharsis also implies the existence of something that has to come out one way or the other. Someone who presumably likes guitars could use musical expression as their toilet.

I don’t have fun playing music unless I’m playing with other people. sometimes I think you guys don’t have fun with music at all. seems like some competition with strangers where the only reward is to not feel shit about yourself
I smother myself in shit prior, during, and after posting on The /GG/
>>131325386as is tradition, a great day for /gg/ and indeed the rest of the world.

Signs that someone can’t play:>concerned about tone >has more than 2 guitars >has pedal other than a looper >talks about picks >posts the same picture more than once >uses ernie ball strings >has more than a 20 watt amp and has never gigged >can’t play a full song to a metronome without the backing track >likes block inlays
Should I sell my Turbo Tube Screamer and keep the Japanese Maxon 808? Or sell the 808 and keep the turbo??

>>131325909Epiphone Wildkat
>>131325517Some of this is almost valid, but>concerned about toneYou think wanting to sound how you want to sound is a bad thing?>has more than 2 guitarsIf they're for very different purposes, this isn't really an issue. If I have a Tele, a baritone and an acoustic in dadgad, this doesn't really say anything about lack of ability.>has pedal other than a looperSo volume boosts, overdrives, reverbs, compressors, etc., are all pointless?I get the impression you're one of those archtop/semi-hollow jazz fuckers that thinks everything should be "standards" and clean noodling
Man, I remember playing guitar in the original punk scene. You wouldn't believe it... 20 percent black, 20 percent white, 20 percent latino, 20 percent asian., 20 percent indian. It was about 33 percent trans, 33 percent women and 33 percent men
