>underbaked thread is shit wow who saw this coming
>>131466593Is that some motherfucking Danny Gatton
>>131466708It's Johnny Cash, the man in black.
at this point all I have to do is practice 30 mins a day and I’ll be better than the entirety of /gg/ within a year
>>131466771Craig would still be leagues above you there are levels to this shit lil one
Do you ever just stare at the bridge of the Telecaster and realize how ugly it is
>>131466717Cash would never touch a Heineken
>>131466782
>>131466774sounding good and being technically competent are two different things. you of all people know this
craig > bba
>>131466791when someone says better I think of the mechanical capabilities, sounding good isn't playing guitar, thats sound engineer shit.if you listen through some of craigs licks he's actually doing some things that are a little more advanced than cowboy chords and full step bends
>>131466798i'd probably enjoy jamming with Craig more so yeah that checks out.
>>131466818dissonant music is the mark of the amateur. master the basics. a true master will make something beautiful out of something simple.
>>131466844music is a reflection of your emotions not every emotion is clean
Girls like cocky guys. What's a cocky guitar?
>>131466844you cannot even play a dissonant chord
>>131466785He's using it to play slide, chief, not drinking it.
>>131466878Gibson les paul
this is kinda what it would sound like if me and craig jammedhttps://voca.ro/12PjLMnkIS94
>>131466904Hed have your ass that wide, yes
>>131466904Sounds like hot dogshit.
>>131466912i'm so glad you took the low hanging fruit>>131466916what about shit comprised of nothing but hotdogs?https://voca.ro/1gC7kwy3MMyt
does eric still gig?
yall really need to get out and jam with real people that aren’t mentally deranged
>>131466960I've played with quite a few people its easier to bounce ideas in real time and adjust something about seeing the person bob in time helps everyone keep time idk how else to explain it, theres a fuckin reason bands play together and all that covid Zoom call bullshit sounded like a dog shitting into the ocean
>>131466960this is a schizo general. only unmedicated schizos post here
>>131466980also seeing where they bar their index finger helps tremendously and going over licks idk man i agree get out there and play forget the gay shit and the haters just play don't be a bitchhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hUN3yenlCGE
>>131466982>inbred>craigWho else is a schizo
>>131466994do we count sociopaths that reply to themselves? that covers everyone else
>>131466989me on the left btw (by the way)
>>131466994the post above yours. also bba is a schizo
>>131466994Me! I'm a schizo! We're all schizos!
https://voca.ro/1321ph2niqIX

>>131467018based schizo >>131467037nice another schizo voca
i just took a hot steaming massive shit on my amp and the embarassing part is it sounds better
>>131467064we're already moved on from that name sweetheart pay attention, plus I use guitar rig 6!
Whatever you think you are I am
>>131467064>>131467076Are you really schizophrenic? It would make sense, I usually open /gg/ and you've been spamming nonsense all hours of the night. Or what mental illness do you have?
>>131467080which one of me are you talking to
>>131467084>>131467084i love to suck dicks and one day i WILL die sucking one!
Has anyone here ever eaten a turd? Don't knock it till you try it, I'm just saying...
>/gg/ - mental illness general
I just learned about something called a cargo cult and it describes /gg/ perfectly
>>131467115No? Even Ghandi drank his own urine? >*glug glug glug*
>>131466892Point stands, he would play it with an American bottle
>>131467130sarr yes drinking piss make indian man strongest on internet i muscle it
The fuck kind of schizophrenia is this thread? Kill yourselves this very moment.
>>131467164it's the indian century, our time is over :(
Be flat major seven.
>>131467125they’ll just call you a poorfag. you post gear they’ll ask for a voca. you post a voca they’ll go silent and start the process over again.
>>131467125you mean how everyone here just repeats the same memes, insults, doxxes, and sockpuppets we were using 10 years ago hoping itll be like the good ol days even though sam is a 2 dimensional imprint on the side of an unnamed road
>>131467164>>131467168>>131467169>>131467173Thoughts on sexual reassignment surgery? Preformed in Bangladesh?
>>131467174oh you fucker I lold at the last part
>>131467173Poorfag. Post a voca pussy.
>>131467174SAM'S DEAD?!?
>>131467187with what? I do not even having a guitar
>>131467173
>>131467197you guys seeing this schizo?
am paid per post 9 currants and 20 grains of rice as agreement say
Please don't make fun of schizophrenic people, /gg/ is one.
woah I forgot I have a 12 year old pack of bone nut and saddle blanks. imagine the vintage tone
Eff be flat major seven, di minor sea eff.
so who else >skipped their pills today can't be just me right
>>131467220I also stopped using my sleep apnea mask a few months ago so I am losing grasp on reality at twice the rate
>>131467220ritalin is fucking awesome why wouldn't i take it
I heard you guys were really into being mentally ill and getting on social media to post schizo babble, what's up with that?
>>131467234I modeled my life entirely after charles manson. or was it marylin? either way
>>131467234I heard you're still doing that hand thing.
For me it's got to be schizophrenia. It's schizophrenia or nothing.
I love schizophrenia. It's so bad.
I just straight up doubled down on it, schizo life SON!
Where's Eric? It's only 10:30pm in Arizona. Does being a bald manlet make you fall asleep early or something?
I may have a 3 inch dick that only gets hard for 15 mins but I have a mesa boogie
God playing barre chords is so hard, especially when there are bugs crawling under your skin right now and also when you're now breathing manually and lost The Game. That's when playing barre chords really sucks
>>131467266got his head split open by the schizo probably
>>131467285ERIC'S DEAD TOO?!?
>>131467285he promised a pic of the town limits first and the schizo is a man of his word
thread's a bit schizo don'tcha think
Excuse me, I have schizophrenia. Are you guys talking about me?
Bros try these chords 3-x-3-3-5-5 x-0-4-5-6-0
>>131467307NO ME! I'M HIM! I'M THE REAL SCHIZO! NOT YOU! ME!
three words>schizo >schizo >schizoyou know what must be done
>>131467315Interesting sounds like the hendrix chord. I wonder who invented this
Schizophrenia is a treatable mental illness.
>>131467334I heard these words outside my head when I read them. I know what must be done.
>>131467315Gmin7A5 with stacked 3/6 tritones. This one kind of sounds bad everywhere
>>131466798>bba came back for 1 post this afternoon >immediately noped the fuck outKek so this is the power of psych meds
>>131467364sorry I read the first one as 3x3333. I guess you could call it Gmin7add9add13
>>131467372MEDS?!? MEDS?!? I DON'T NEED NO STINKIN' MEDS!!! I CAN SEE EVERYTHING!!!
/gg/ isn't really a schizo general, is it? i'm not a schizo so i don't want to take a chance of the schizo infecting my mind
>>131467396If you wear a tinfoil schizo hat while you're here you'll be safe. That's what I do and I've never contracted it. I made it in the kitchen one afternoon while I was microwaving some hot pockets.
>>131467404To add to this, the microwaves coming from the hot pockets were telling me to do bad things and when I put the tinfoil hat on they stopped. That's how I know it works.
what’s your favorite hot pocket flavor? I really like the meatball mozarella
>>131467426hot pockets are nasty, i'm more of a frozen burrito man since i'm latinx
Damn, since I’ve refined my picking technique I am getting much more volume out of the strings without playing any harder. I think I’ll need to go up to the 13s because the B and E string have too much buzz now.
>>131467433does this look like your personal blog faggot?
>>131467432I like burritos when they aren’t any higher than 30% beans
>>131467439I mean well, yeah. I JUST made a blog post.
>>131467443i just bake them in the oven for 15mins and put some sour cream on them, then a bit of tapito sauce. it's difficult to tell the difference between frozen burritos taste wise if you do that. a dollar general delicacy
>>131467458thank you for sharing your culture with me. I will try this next time I have burritos
can you guys stop posting so much offtopic shit? by the time I check the thread at the end of the day, its already at the bump limit but its 500 replies of yapping random whos and discord celebrities. this is a honest request, i dont even mind the shitposting its like the random babbling that you cant understand unless you've been in some super sekret discord server.now if you want to argue about your meme 5 dollar picks, liberal humbuckers, guitar rig vs neural amps...im all for it
>>131467491I talked about my strings
still debating on which one should i practice on this week.
>>131467315https://voca.ro/1o27nUcyo3dt
>>131467638A different one each day. Rotate through with a full day on each one.
currently i rotate guitars once a year, every 6 months at most. of course i have my favorites but i feel a need to play everything. my semi hollow is probably my least favorite. i forgot if the bridge is funny and not pinned down besides tension or something but i remember kinda disliking that. also it feels odd. i never liked set neck guitars. having a bolt on just feels right. but it was a gift and i refuse not to use it. its a ibanez, came broken from the factory with shitty wiring and i somehow managed to get it in working condition despite not really knowing what i was doing at the time.semi hollow body guitars are kinda fun for big chord stuff I guess
>>131467491None of the gear or playing posts in this general are interesting. Google search AI summaries are less boring.Of course most of the thread is going to be off-topic shitposts when there's not anything else worth reading.

if your guitar has birds on it we can't be friends
Prs is the prime example of gaudy looking guitars.>ugly tryhard flametop>shitty bird inlays (extra gay)>ugly headstockthey really are the old man with no taste guitar
>>131468088>>131468257ok we get it, one post was enough jeez
>>131468257maybe u put a track suit on it it would be funkier eh
>>131467638I like the green one, anon.

The only guitar I currently own is an old acoustic Washburn with fresh strings. Do I still have /gg/ cred?
>>131468388>oldhow old
>>131468393IDK like 15-20 years old, it's not an antique
>>131468556heeeeell no
>>131468577What's the story with Washburn anyways? I hear new models are all made in Korea, is this true? When did they stop making good guitars and start being a mid-tier brand for Guitar Center to fill empty shelves with?
>>131468628nigga do i look like a google to you

Just one dude spamming the thread all night.Grim!
>>1314665939-42 vs 10-46what strings should i use?
You already know what it is
pisses me off how there's a low fret so if i put my action as low as ibanez should go that one note doesn't ring out because it touches the next fret instead
>>131469683I like strings that are easier on the fingers but don't like the limp feeling of a 9 but 10 is good. I might try 9.5
>>131468257This works out well because Paul doesn't want blacks playing his guitars, it cheapens his brand. He even cringes when they pick up a student edition. He knows crime stats though and realizes some of these will inevitably end up in black hands as they sprint out the exit of guitar center. Nothing he can do about thar.
https://voca.ro/18GMAPyGcFVA
WTF is his problem??
Is being too based a problem?
>>131470002based on what?
why didnt anyone just ask eddie van halen how he got his tone?

In terms of beauty no other company compares to gibson
the les paul is beautiful. shame about the weight tho.
>>131470293>filters pencil necksIt's perfect
what else can be said about the SG. Even it mogs
even gibsons ugliest signature has a charm too it and is still pretty baddass
>>131470336Looks better on a bass to be desu
for me its still the telecaster
>>131470336gibson’s underdog with gibson’s best pickups
>>131470304Based that the gov bought that for you my guy
https://youtu.be/oNDeWoRXoyo
>>131470377Hell yeah my fellow MIGA brother, the government should have given that money to jews in Israel instead!
For me it's the deimel firestar
owning multiple different guitars pedals or amps is distracting you from getting better.
>>131470534This is the kind of guitar where you see it and you immediately know whoever owns it won't be playing any music worth listening to.
>>131470581actually it's just drugs
>>131470587Really cause Lee Ranaldo plays one and he makes pretty good music imo
>>131470599whomst?
>>131470599Sonic Youth is one of the shittiest bands in the world, looks like I was right.
>>131470615actually they are great if you do drugs
Punk, metal, and rap are noise. They’re not music.
>>131470336i want one so FUCKING BAD but I'm a poorfag. if i set up a gofundme can you guys buy it for me? thanks
>>131470648this but pop
>>131466593where to start with music theory for guitar? I can play now some songs and do some exercices on my guitar so figured i could venture a bit into music theory for beginners
>>131470648you are talking to someone who made punk metal rap and noise music.
>>131470660I'm about at the same place you are. Honestly, learn some basic scales. blues scale, pentatonic, just basic ones. it'll really upgrade your improvisation ability, you won't feel as lost trying to find notes that sound good together. I don't recommend being one of those guys that feels like he has to memorize every scale by heart, you can easily get lost in the theory and lose that raw creativity in the process
>>131470660>>131470691i feel like these are aliens
>>131470694>too stupid to do a simple google search they don't even deserve replies desu
>>131470694?>>131470691>Honestly, learn some basic scales. blues scale, pentatonic, just basic ones.
>>131470707no like i feel like they are gangstalking me
>>131470694tf bro how'd you know?
>>131470709>>Honestly, learn some basic scales. blues scale, pentatonic, just basic ones.sorry, yeah that sounds good, might go with that and see where it leads me to
>>131470707i don't see the problem with answering a guy's question. I'm not an authority by any means
>>131470742all you're doing is shitting up the thread answering stupid basic bitch questions only a retard would go on social media to ask, if i asked you how to wipe my ass are you going to give some dumbass detailed reply to that too? stupid shit should be ignored
>>131470581poorfag cope
>>131470691this is wrong, my evidence is the quality of vocas on /gg/. there is no point in learning more if you can’t use what you already know. start with one scale and make something good with only two notes. only when you feel like you are fluent in those two notes and need more to say add another note. do this until you have the entire scale. then start over with 2 notes in 2 octaves
who definitively has the nicest rig in all of /gg/?
>>131470846the anon with the Adirondack HD28the guy with the 70s Martin 000
>>131470861>grandpa guitars 555 come on now
>>131467925>he types into the thread then waits slavishly for a response
>>131470846You keep asking this like you think someone's going to name whatever bullshit you posted.You need to understand no one noticed you because you don't matter. You're not important.
>>131470280If you just care about beauty, then you must compare them to drawings of fantasy guitars.
>>131470846me>>131460371
>>131470629so is shitting your pants
>>131470877no one gives a shit about spray painted fisher price shit planks
>>131470921i'm sorry this post didn't come with digits of truth so i'm going to have to ignore it :)
The real question is who in /gg/ has the most fun playing guitar? I bet it's an acousticfag.
>>131470943only trips are facts
>>131467638My SE is the exact opposite of yours color waie
>>131470913why would you do that?
>>131471013this is one of the worst guitar colors I’ve ever laid eyes on. slightly worse than bba poop brown
>>131470900>my bookshelves and digital shitbox mog your 4x12sLmao
your 4x12s sound like rancid dogshit in a fucking apartment
>>131469683I've played 10-46 for the longest time, but I think I'm going back to 9's, because bend+vibrato is by far one of my weakest spots. Hybrids or 9.5 might be a good option too.
>>131471013>nigga living on painted concrete floors like he in prison
>>131471110Ever heard of a basement?
>>131470691don't do that unless you just want to sound like everyone else. a bog standard generic guitar player. stock, if you will.
>>131471123>nigga got to go down in the basement next to the washing machine to play guitarkek you live with your mama
>why yes I keep all my equipment in 80% humidity by choice
>>131471142They don't have air conditioning where you live? There's no home in North America with 80% humidity in the living areas.
Set up my VTM 60 and PV cab again this morning. The 60 and 120 really do sound quite a bit different. Let alone the g12k-85's vs V30's in the Mesa cabs. 60 set up is pretty sparkly while the 120 is clean but a lot fatter.>>131471133Saw this thread and rewatched Some Kind of Monster yesterday lol
>>131471136Does /gg/ not own their own home?
>>131471159is a favela hut a home
>>131471159If you've been banished down below ground level to partake in your hobby it's not really your home, now it it?
>>131471105>apartmentMy home studio is 20x15 feet. They sound splendid. Even in an apartment at lower volumes they will sound superior to a 1 and 2x12, let alone two entry level bookshelves.
>>131471184Still my house.Names on the deed and everything.
>>131471153I live in florida and keep all my shit in the garage
>>131471220No, it's your wife's house, you just live in it. Don't believe me? Get divorced and see.
>>131471153your air conditioner isn’t getting your basement below 65%. unless you installed that unit yourself it’s going to be slightly oversized and isn’t going to run long enough to do that. given you’re too poor to even finish your basement I can guaranteed you have air leaks in the house in multiple locations
>>131471206>multiple larps in a single postthis is getting out of hand

>>131470653you gotta build a $100 kit yourself, wagey
>>131471451this is awesome. It goes in cycles. Get your big amps now.
>>131471206Bullshit. I've tried this. A 2x12 is all low end at that volume, a 4x12 is worse. They are balanced for stage volumes.>Just turn the EQ knobs!I thought it was all about the 4x12s being better by default? If that were true why do you need to fix it with EQ?None of these problems exist with an amp that actually makes sense for an apartment. A full stack looks out of place in an apartment because it is out of place.
>>131471597>looks out of place in an apartmentYou look like those guys who buys a car and park it inside their house just to look at it instead of drive it.
4x12's push more air and sound bigger. really is simple as.
amp needs to be tuned to the guitar and the amp an speakers need to be tuned to the room. running an amp below 7 will never produce good tone. it’s just simple physics
>>1314696838-38 , why do more work than necessary?
>>131471451>broken buck seein/gg/ his bi/gg/ bad /gg/ee /gg/ee bully everywhere he lookslmfao this is how i know how bad i /gg/ot to you
>>131471620which is not a good thing in an apartment. when you turn down a huge amp as far as it can go and run it into a giant cabinet, that pushed air is all bass

Lovely singing Olivia... Hey can I see your guitar for a second, little lady...https://voca.ro/1gQxjNBV1q65
>>131471909Oh my goshing heck Mountain your so bad...
>>131471159Yes, I do. A two-story house with two garages and a garden plot.
>>131471953Sorry little lady... But guitar is a mans game. Simple as... https://voca.ro/1eu1QpQQFyvh
>>131471206I concur with this statement
>>131471707Ever heard of reactive loads? You can run the loaded-down, attenuated signal back in your 4x12 and it sounds glorious.
Every rock-centric guitar player would buy a 4x12 if they could afford it.
Might make a video or demo this board soon idk but i like this new way I have it
>>131472341Rearranging the board is always funWhen I'm bored at work, I plan out new patches or patch layouts for my GT-100. It's a good feeling when it all comes together and plays nicer than before, or gives you another tonal flavour that you didn't have before.
Anon, does my guitar sound like trash?https://voca.ro/1otccfAHG58S
>>131472420can't hear shit
>>131472420
>>131472417yeah I just wanted to make mine smaller so I could take it to visit people but I like how it sounds now too the change is nice.
>>131472222A reactive load is only needed if your amp is SO loud that the master volume doesn't get it low enough. It doesn't do jack shit to the problem you're replying to - there's nothing that can attenuate your speaker cones besides a smaller cab with fewer cones.
>>131472277cabs are probably the cheapest part of a rig and 4x12 are dead cheap because there are so many secondhand after they realized they are too big
>>131472519>cabs are probably the cheapest part of a rigfor a piece of shit one sure.
play acoustic
>>131472485You obviously don’t know what the fuck you are talking about, or never had the opportunity to play a tube amp on full blast… Either way, let me explain something real simple to you: tube amps sound their best when the power amp kicks into overdrive. There’s no fuckin’ way in hell you’ll achieve this with a master volume, not even with a post phase inverter one. That’s why a reactive load does the job.
>>131472624hes probably the same anon who only plays DI through his shitbox tiny monitors. hes a lost cause anon dont bother trying to explain.
>>131472624EE here, it's actually the preamp stages that add distortion when you turn the master volume up. Power amp distortion sounds horrendous because there's nothing to filter the shrill higher order harmonics.
Guys guys I've made something that isn't terrible!!https://voca.ro/1hewszqyfpnn
>>131472663Ever heard of a cab’s frequency response and how the speakers attenuate everything over 5 KHz, Mr big shot electrical engineer? Ever seen an impedance curve of a 4x12 and how it goes exponentially up after the resonant frequency bump? Just shut the fuck up, before you embarrass yourself even more.
>>131472755Test it for yourself. Record a DI signal, boost it with a non-distorting amplifier and run it into your FX loop return with the return level all the way up. You won't like the results.
>>131472755Oh, and since I now bothered to open your image: You're looking at less than 10 dB attenuation between around 600 Hz (that's roughly the "d" note at the 10th fret of your high e string) and its 10th harmonic at 6 kHz.
>>131472813You obviously didn’t get what I tried to convey. Guitar speakers are filters. They filter out all shrill (high) frequencies and even / odd order harmonics generated by distortion. Run your amp DI signal without an IR… It will sound like ass, even with preamp distortion only.
I like Australian girls because they are awake the same time I am... https://voca.ro/1ejKroJV2SYj
>>131472624the point was, this isn't relevant. whether or not your power tubes are saturated makes no difference to the cab. a giant cab receiving a tiny signal, attenuated or naturally tiny, is going to sound bad. why put nitrous in the tank when you have to keep your speed below the limit
>>131472907Yes. My point is that all of the filtering that's happening in the various preamp stages before you get to the power stage is also an important part of a guitar's sound, and pretty much any amp made in the last 50 years has taken that into account. If preamp distortion was so shit, we'd all be playing single stage amps.
>>131470581I have only one guitar and one amp and I'm still bad
Lmao
EQ pedal in the effects loopThank me later
>>131472973the "i bought the wrong amp for the sound i want" special
>>131472934I said nothing negative about preamp distortion. What I said was, leaving power amp distortion out of the picture wouldn’t get you great tone… Overdriven preamp + overdriven power amp is where it’s at.
>>131473009Imagine if you did this, and then added another non-distorting power amp stage after the last distorting stage so you can get more volume with no changes to your thus far perfect toneWild concept, I know
Celestion Vintage 30 frequency response. Notice something?
Let me guess... you "need" more
/gg/ will argue about anything to avoid improving their playing
>>131473036that's great. but i like this
>>131472686
>>131473022You only forget the complex interplay of the plate load, output transformer and the reactive load (speaker voice coil in a magnetic field). This shit can’t be replicated by a few simple triode stages.
>>131473079well at least it's a (you)thanks I guess
>>131473094Imagine throwing out a bunch of words you don't understand. None of that is complex. All that happens there is a bit of filtering and maybe, MAYBE a few extra harmonics if you're driving the speaker near the limit of what it can survive over extended periods of time.
Bye, /gg/Maybe you'll be less resistant to learning next time (I have my doubts)
>>131473128don't get uppity with me, small fry. little pipsqueak.
>>131473201listen here peanut
>>131473136Just shut the f up already. Obviously you’re the one who hasn’t touched a real tube amp in your life. Or ever played through one on full volume in the same room, at best.
>>131473230Nice.
>>131473136It’s not that simple, dumbass. You have speaker dynamics (ever seen a waterfall chart?), not to mention flyback voltage and crossover distortion in push-pull designs. These concepts can’t be modeled easily or simulated 100%. That’s why amp sims will always remain just an approximation to the real thing.
>>131473299Yours is nicer! Mine is a simple trainwreck express.
>yeah you see these speakers tested in a controlled environment mic’d in a very particular way are directly representative of my 10x10 apartment room with no sound deadening the blind leading the blind

crazy how dead this thread gets when eric the schizo larper stops posting
>>131474182I'm new and lurking here and this thread just confuses me on what its trying to be.
>>131474195If it makes no sense and makes you want to leave, that’s normal. it’s just a bunch of misfits trying to larp about not being poor and not being shit about guitar but they’ll do anything but practice
>>131474216So basically people here suck at playing or something due to lack of practice?
>>131472663>EE here, it's actually the preamp stages that add distortion when you turn the master volume up. Power amp distortion sounds horrendous because there's nothing to filter the shrill higher order harmonics.Which school taught you to spew internet nonsense?
>>131474284yeah they’ll play the sorriest shit you’ve ever heard and then make up some genre for it and say that’s actually how it’s supposed to go. If you want to get better as a musician don’t post here too often
>>131474182it's sunday pal we're all busy spending quality time with our wives and kids

Any feedback?https://youtu.be/Xeei1KG_orQ?si=YyZrEWic9cSCLuexI don't know the actual strumming pattern, this is just me guessing
>>131474695idk this song but seems good. try to get some more forearm rotation in your playing like shaking water off your hand. helps with the upstrokes a bit. can see you get hung up on them sometimes
>>131474719Thanks man, I'll work on that. Song is sometimes by mbv. It probably doesn't help that the actual tuning on the record is DAADAd and im playing in standard tuning. I have no clue how kevin shields got those tunings without snapping every string
>>131474216hard to swallow pills, practice doesn't make you a better musician, all practice does is allows you to unleash your creativity if you had none to begin with you're just going to turn into a rote muscle memory repeater.
>>131474745im hearing one more upstrum in there somewhere but im not familiar with this style of music so its likely youre correct. it sounds good either way
>>131471092>t. 5% volume cuck
>>131474759the only way you get good at expressing creativity is practicing, it's not some magical trait people are born with. if you only practice running through scales then yeah you'll probably be boring and uncreative.
>>131473230>>131473299This looks dangerous. I'll stick to my digital amp simulator, thanks.
>>131474947the single most important thing I've done other than rote memorization of chord shapes is train my ears
>>131474947You don't get good at it, its not a skill its an attribute, that's like saying if you lift enough weights youll suddenly get taller, not how it works buddy
I just wanna make pretty sounding songs that let me sell out arenas Is that too much to ask?
Stratocaster > everything else>does everything>looks awesome>feels awesome>most hits out of any guitar in history and throughout time and space>built to last can take a beating and stay in tune
>>131474977cope for lazy defeatists. get your T checked out.
What’s a good set of tuners and nut to get for my Fender starcaster? It’s a cheap Strat I got back in the 2000’s for Christmas one year that I want to set up to be a good player.I figure with a good set of tuners, a good nut, and some mean ceramics I could have a bad little guitar. Idk I want to stick with single coils, but I want to simultaneously go for a post grunge/new mentalish sound. I’m not sure that’ll happen with singles, but idk how else to describe what I like to play/listen to. Current tuning is drop C if that helps.
>>131475021acoustic clearly mogs. everyone loves acoustic and you don’t even need an amplifier.
>>131475192staggered height locking tuners. gotoh makes the best, graphtech ratios and real grocers are ok but not as good as gotoh in my experience
New>>131475199>>131475199>>131475199
>>131475193acoustic is so boring unless you're playing the bass, harmony and melody all at the same time nobody cares.>>131475179Do you even understand what cope means? I really don't think you do since you've used it incorrectly.
feeeelling that Last Post?

okay, but about that Last Post tho
