I recently dealt with the absolute most worthless retard of a guitar tech at a Guitar Center
My guitar has high frets. I know this because I straightened the neck, put a fret rocker on and found the high frets. I'd fix it myself but I don't have the tools so I figured just pay someone to do it.
This fucking boomer faggot keeps my guitar for a week and tells me he played it for hours and couldn't find any issue and asked me to come in and show him. So I do, play one single chord which immediately rattles like crazy from the high frets, and this fucking idiot starts lecturing me on my playing as if I'm a brand new guitarist. I've been playing for 21 years
He said "you must be self taught because you'd know to use light touch or else things can buzz" and then started playing my guitar going on about "I play 5 hours a day and don't have callouses because my touch is so light" and then he says he practices his touch and that's why he has muscle memory and can find any fret AND THEN this dumbass tried to play a chord without looking and missed.
I just said "yeah sure I'll go practice" and left.
Fuck that fucking idiot

Niggers if he actually practices more than a dozen times he'll be beating the odds. He likely won't and the stuff will rot in his closet forever until it gets dumpstered, donated, or sold on facebook. He wants to spend $300 - that means no lessons, not even any decent virtual lessons, and probably no job.

If he does beat the odds somehow and manages to learn even a single simple song, that means he's likely actually not complete unemployed and retarded and then can buy a better guitar and amp very easily now that he knows anything at all.

>>132007607

My first guitar cost about £150 quid and came with an awful little 10watt fender practice amp so it cost even less than that on its own. It's a squier affinity strat.
This was back in 2002 ish so no idea what they'd go for now but back then it was pretty much the cheapest of the cheap.
It's one of my favourite guitars.
It's all in the setup. Guys like >>132008201 are talking absolute bollocks. There are endless amounts of cheap shit guitars that will smoke considerably more expensive ones if they've been setup properly and as a beginner, learning to properly set up your guitar should be part of your learning process.
If you get the action right, adjust the truss, get the intonation spot on etc... You can turn even a very cheap guitar into something that is very playable and even fantastic that will be serviceable for your entire playing career.

I remember an old Paul Gilbert vid where he showed off a bunch of his guitars and so many of them were weird foreign basically plywood shit clones he'd grab from pawn shops and said that once his tech got hold of them and dropped in some hot pickups and gave it a proper setup, he'd rip on them and play them live.

For playability you don't need to spend much. Sound is where you want to spend the money.
A cheap, well set up guitar run through a decent amp will always be preferable to splurging on some £1000 guitar run through some absolutely dog shit amp.

When you're at the point where expensive gear matters to you, you'll be far enough on with the hobby that you'll be able to make your own decisions because you'll know what matters to you as a guitarist, rather than take advice from gear snob rich kiddies and their dust gathering custom les pauls and triple rec bedroom stacks that they grind out sloppy metallica riffs on.

TL:DR buy a cheapish guitar or buy second hand and learn to set it up right.

>And you also have to figure in an amp. You can't find a halfway decent amp under $900 unless you find a well taken care of used one for a nice price. Some retard will come along and recommend a Boss Katana but those are shit.
Jokes aside amp is not necessary. Focusrite+Ableton will do the job

Yeah but if you get rusty it just takes a little warm up period to get your chops back up to scratch. It's like being fluent in a second language. If you haven't spoken it in a while, you're rusty, but a few days immersing yourself and it all comes back sharp as ever.
It's not like you have to pick it all up from scratch again.
But that'd only happen if you had to stop playing for an extended period of time for some reason. If playing is your hobby/livelihood, you're not really going to get rusty because you're keeping your tools sharp every time you pick up and play.
>>
>>132011149
Yes but Paul Gilbert is a shizo and his guitar tech adds basically another several hundreds of bucks of work by setting up a shit guitar so it's less shit.
Might as well just buy a guitar that costs this much more and is already set up properly from the start
Also another thing that plays a role is tremolo system which sucks dicks on cheaper guitars
>>
>>132015999

The point is that you can buy a new guitar for a few hundo and then teach yourself to set it up to its absolute best and it's going to play well enough to take you from total beginner to advanced ability at which point you're going to be keen enough to justify spending some decent scrilla on some proper kit.
It's not the 80s/90s/00s any more where cheap guitars were made out of compressed cardboard and rolls of pennies taped together that would warp and wouldn't hold tune for more than 5 seconds.
The budget guitar space is flooded with fundamentally really solid offerings that are a good setup away from being smooth as fuck.
Yeah, you won't get good pickups or thru neck or a proper floating tremolo or whatever but that shit doesn't really matter to a beginner. Even crap hardware sounds good enough through todays modelling amps and software. Good enough to record and perform. It's 90% in the fingers anyway and like I said, if you're at the point where your sound is a big problem you're performing/recording at a level where you can justify an upgrade.

Only retards keep their guitars out in the open, unless your room is free of dust and has humidity control, at the very least. Also, thanks, I still fucked up a few times but that's fine, I'm still writing it. My new guitar is picrel, the shop took it for me. It's Solar''s 29 inch 7 string and I had it turned from passive to active with a pair of SD Blackout pickups. I wanted them to paint it flamingo pink, too, but they don't do paintjobs, so I'll have that done later. A gay, pink XXL metal guitar will be funny. It should arrive next week.

Thanks. I just went with where it took me. I've always had a thing for lurching, dissonant tunes that build into something violent.
>>132016455
So I can do the same tuning I do on my 8 string, but with more tension on the low Eb, so there's way more authority to it. It's bassy and a bit floppy on my 27 inch 8 string i posted up there, even with the chadtune.

I have schizophrenia. There are times, even on my meds, when I suffer from severe paranoid delusions and hallucinations. I get scared, I'm human. But when I try to talk to people about what I'm afraid of and I see responses that paint me as some kind of freak, or like I'm the thing to be afraid of, all it ends up doing is isolating me and fueling my mental illness.

There are some bits here that I dig. You can solo, that's for sure. Also, not much, gonna see about finishing writing that song today, I already got a rough scratch track of the ending bit recorded.

I couldn't nail the re-recording of the outro part well enough, so i just slapped em together for now. My picking hand's too tired from playing hours upon hours of 90% tremolo picking metal the past three days. I'll get it down some time next week.

Ty anons. Initially I hated this teal color but now I kinda dig it. Its not common and reminds me of those old commie cars.
>>132022391
Different model and different sound. I kinda dont see reason of buying this double WRHB tele when there are other guitars suitable for that purpose.
But this is still a tele and it has coil split too. And its not even being sold anymore. Kinda very unique model

Imagine buying the fanciest most expensive guitar with superunique handwoven special edition humbuckers just to add gorillion effects making it sound like shit, making all the things obsolete
Guitar + amp + some basic amp settings are enough. Maybe pedal for some effect whenever you do heckin solo or something.
Putting it through 20 different pedals and preamps kill the tone in such way that not even most expensive tonewood in the world can fix

tips for finding other musicians to play with?
>>
>>132025533
bulletin board at any music shop. if you just want to jam try to find a bunch of older people. younger people have delusions of grandeur and middle aged people either don’t have the time or are looking to hotswap members which never ends well.
>>
Oh no, what happened to the /bant/ thread bros?
>>
>>132025533
I'm not in a band, but from what I have seen in my local scene: start performing solo at open mic nights. Don't do covers. Put yourself out there. Eventually someone who is also into the same style of music you're into will approach you after your performance.
>>
>>132025533
becoming a multi-instrumentalist

but what if the style you like is not really possible as a solo performer.

It's so hard to play in time when your fingers are colder than a corpse. I need to start playing to a click track as well, but that's not gonna help the mobility in my fingers. I need to find a good pair of gloves, but unfortunately that would make me look like a bigger retard.
