Guitar sommeliers all agree that the worst guitarists, on average, are Dean owners.
Who is your favorite fingerstyle guitarist?
>favorite fingerstyle guitarist?
Bobby B. He's probably getting fucked in the mouth by Beelzebub right about now, but that dude had some serious chops.
he was good. fucked in the head, though.

i had a playlist of his lessons but never followed through
what was his problem
>fucked in the head, though
probably had something to do with decades of doing hard drugs with third worlders. that's my theory, anyways

Fuck, how new are you?
i think im gonna install the humbucker on my acoustic by myself iwthout paying anyone
do it
how do i level frets on a bass guitar without fucking it up
Same way you do on a regular guitar
13:40 lmao look at that youtu.be
i never did it. only thing i ever did to frets was polish them with steel wool so they look shiny
Use steel wool and press down hard on it with your whole hand while you rub it back and forth.
I appreciate an anime thread every once in a while to get me motivated to practice.
Thanks OP
but how do i make them level with eachother so i can get low action
how do I into lap steel guitar
do you play bottleneck?
pretty new, why?
It's an hero
this is neat youtu.be
a long section of box aluminium or steel, glue different grits of sandpaper to each face.
a cheap hollow bodied spirit level is ideal for this
this is actually a tidy way of installing a humbucker
ah, thanks. I guess it truly is a art.
do i adjust the truss rod to get the fretboard flat before doing it so i dont make a bow on the frets
Chet Baker is good music but i refuse to listen and study it because his music is onions af
>oh this woman is too much for me
>oh i fall in love too easily
Use a pair of vices to straighten the fretboard flat instead first.
pair of what
this is too complicated
yes, star with a flat neck. you can buy or make notched straight edges for this purpose.
YOu might want to buy a fret rocker and some radius guages too
yes
>the huehue actually doesn't know what a vice is
i better just pay my tech of trust
as in gta vice city?
How much worse is a squier affinity telecaster than a regular MIM tele. Is there really that big of a diff? And is a squier affinity tele gonna have the bob dylan / mike bloomfield tele sound I'm looking for?
>as in gta vice city?
No, as in 7-1.
good choice.
if you want to learn that shit, best to start with some old shit necks that nobody needs.

Is 40w too much for just playing in my bedroom?
Most people use 60-100 watt bulbs and more than one. But get what you can afford.
depends on how much you hate your neighbours
Just don't turn it up loud. I take my 120 watt head back and forth from the rehearsal studio all the time and play with it low volume at home just fine
Heh nice one
It's just that I'm coming from a 10w behringer starter amp and I don't know how to get good tone without everything being extremely loud with volume only at two or three on the amp
Most good tones take at least a 12" speaker and some life breathing into it.
Good amps are great. Being poor is overrated.
yeah because a humbucker attached to an acoustic guitar sounds the same as a humbucker on a les paul or a 335
laminated wood strats
Does it have a gain channel, or do you have to crank it to get it to break up?. If the latter, yes, it's too much.
why arent too many people here shilling their music, it's a lot of talk about gear and stuff which is cool but shill your shit. Or else im shilling my shit right here: vocaroo.com
>laminated wood strats
I got that. But what brought it up?
I dont record
I'm planning on getting a new guitar on my next paycheck. Having some dilemmas. I want something good for acoustic fingerpicking, but not a flat top because muh wh*te guy with acoustic guitar meme.
I'm thinking about a manditar because they're sexy af imho, but also maybe an archtop. Or a resonator. I'm torn.
Can I get some input? I don't wanna break the bank, I'm thinking about something in the $700 leafbucks range
because surprise surprise, 90% of musicians here are too dumb to learn how 2 ableton, let alone compose anything that gets too outside of an Am pentatonic
personally it's because I get too into practicing to record anything. maybe I should set up to record next time I practice, it's probably a good habit to have
>clyp now makes you verify email to upload
They finally went full jew

no stealy-weely
It has pre and post-gain control. What do you mean by break up?
I've been considering one of those too. I play a lot of slide so I don't know if it would have the kind of sustain that I'd need
breakup is distortion. One channel amps only distort close to full volume (or by outside sources). For those to sound good you have to be loud. If it has a gain channel, you can sound good at low volumes. This is for tube amps. Solid state sound the same at full or low volume.
Hi guys
Sounds good dude, Man i'd love to record something of that caliber. Too bad ive only got a practice amp and a squier

Based trips
Why is everything laughing?
>hexagonal "screw"
You mean, the nut?
Maybe the wiper is losing contact. You're over-complicating this. Replace the pot with a good new one and resolder all of it, or just tighten and flush it with contact cleaner.
so the problem is inside the pot?
what cleaner? does wd40 serve?
pretty ok lube
Acetone always for electronics and if you can’t find that water usually works
contact cleaner
water works if your goal is to finish rusting shit
What are some good resources for learning 8 finger tapping, or at least tapping using more than one right hand finger? Pic related is what I fumbled around with that works best for the sound I want but in bar 3 it gets finnicky trying to hit the notes with my right hand. I'm playing with my right hand fingers parallel to the neck but I see others playing with their's perpendicular like a normal fretting hand, however that does not feel comfortable to me at all.
I just want you to love me :(
honestly? bring out a piano sonata and translate it into guitar
bach piano tiles in Gm is a great example of this, should force you to develop not only the licks but hand independency
>that tuning
Everything about this post is a meme
Go get a can of dedicated tuner cleaner.
Contact cleaner is for plugs, jacks and tube sockets, and it dries completely. Tuner cleaner has a little bit of lubricant in it so the pot has a little bit of lubrication and can turn without scratching.
whoa who would have guessed! wd40 smells like chocolate! im taking a load of it
Stop it, namefag
its 23:30
i noticed there was a ground wire half soldered, i fixed its solder and wd40'd the pot. now its 100% noise free. the singer owes me a blowjob

Not usually. But some people introduce flammable liquid.
Haha, holy shit, so you're not only gonna look stupid and end up being wrong for using WD40, but you're also gonna catch on fire. This is so exciting. Put more WD40, I encourage you dearly.

How do you go from scales to writing your own music? Is a scale basically just a pool of notes and chords that compliment each other?
symptoms of what???
ur already showing signs of brain damage
That's the HIV
Yeep, I used to work at the Gibson factory, and for what you hope to accomplish, inverting that second set will work wonders. Not very many know ab out that, but you're damn fortunate someone else was here to mention before myself lol. Now get them inverted and wrap it up with some WD40 and you're all set!
btw you can tell I'm not the same user because the posters count went up by one with my post lol
intoxication from Pb
Peanutbutter?
what are you saying
>Is a scale basically just a pool of notes and chords that compliment each other?
Yeah pretty much. Just play around with chords/notes that are in a certain key and find something you like. As a basic example, a I-VI-III-VII (in a minor key) progression works really well, especially when you play around with inversions. Also do remember that musical keys aren't rules, they're just guidelines. Don't be afraid to borrow chords/notes from other keys as well. Example of this would be how A Maj can sound nice in a progression based in E Minor even though it lacks the major third. Another tip would also be to learn to play some songs in a style that you really like and want to make your self so you can get a feel for how things work. Asides from that it's all up to how you feel like using these chords and scales that matters most.
yeah. if one eats too much peanut butter he gets bloated and swollen like you
less of a mutual compliment and more of a set with unique characteristics and charisma. Example, the main focus of phrygian is that it is full of minor intervals (b2, b6, b7) giving it a very accidental, perhaps may I say MIDDLE EASTERN feel. Remember that these are toys at your disposal to play with, dive into the deepest end of them and then pick what sticks and what does not.
Remember one thing tho, rhythm always over melody.
I concur, invert the strings!

What are the most unique and interesting delay pedals?
how autistic would this be on my strat?
Whenever you guys practice or play live do you move around, jump around and have fun? Or is it strictly sitting only? Also thoughts on bands that jump around live?
When I practice bass I can't sit still or I'll get bored, I have to move around.
The end goal for any musician is to enjoy what they're doing. So many people of today's music culture think primarily about how they look, how expensive their gear is, and what people will think of their complex rhythms/riffs (because gone are the days of being able to get away with playing simple stuff and still get attention).
All that matters is that you are having fun, so if you have to jump around to enjoy it, then do it. Life ends for everyone some day, make what you can of it.
I'm gazing at my shoes.
Are expensive guitars a meme?
There is a nice looking hollow body based on a Gretsch which is 1/3 of the price, but the same materials are used for the wood, the pickups I can change later.
>Are expensive guitars a meme?
From somebody who has recently purchased a $2400 guitar (70% of everything I had in my savings at the time), yes, expensive guitars are a meme and NOT because *I* personally feel like I spent too much on it, no, that isn't it.
The quality of the instrument is fabulous but I could have bought other guitars in a lower price bracket (say $800 - 1200) that would have played just as smoothly and sounded just as good. Recently I purchased a new MIM Fender Player Series strat and it is a fine instrument for anyone's needs. I almost bought an American made one but it wouldn't have made me a better musician, it wouldn't have made other people think more highly of me either. Buy the cheaper guitar, dude. You WILL be happier that you did in the end.
This hobby is a consumer addiction, don't let it get the best of what should be your real financial focuses in life.
Dang, thanks for your wise words, helped me a bunch. Cheers!
You're welcome, I'm no wise old man but I am a mid-20's fuckup who should be in a better place in his life right now but isn't due to blowing all my income away for years.

does coil tap actually sound good if you aren’t a huge audiophile?
t. middle of nowhere with nothing to listen to
Anyone got a Knaggs?
reverb.com
Think it's worth the coin?
It can.
A coil tap usually turns one side of your humbucker off, giving you a singlecoil. It’s a single coil that’s not designed to be used by itself, so the sound isn’t going to be exactly like a Strat. But it’s a singlecoil nonetheless, and some coil taps can sound great.
theres a lot of inaccuracies when describing coil taps. what you describe is a coil split, the humbucker is cut 50/50, a coil tap adds a signal output midway through the winding of a single coil.
It’s not. With custom guitars, it never is.
Ten years from now you’ll be trying to sell it, nobody will know what it is because there’s nothing on the Web about it. You’ll think that if you can educate people maybe you’ll get more money for it, so you will try unsuccessfully for another decade. Eventually you’ll give up and take a huge loss just to get rid of it
Does the shape of an (electric) guitar influence the sound it produces?
ie, do a LP sound different to a Strat due to the shape of the wood?
I know it does with classical guitars due to how it creates sound, but is it the case for electric?
Also why do I see so many Strats as opposed to LPs?
t. beginner that bought a Les Paul style guitar
I can't sequence guitar scale patterns anymore have I had a stroke?
Dunno about the shape exactly but I know volume of wood does - sgs are thinner and sound thinner, V's neck pickup sound different because there's less wood around it
I've been doubting I had a stroke too. Shit sucks
There is nothing more amateurish sounding than a sequenced scale. Play intervals, faggot

Added some more interesting drums and I reckon it's about finished now. Just gotta figure out how to make a good sounding mix.
God I wish I could drum for real. Manually programming them down to the velocity of each midi note is a fucking pain in the ass and not intuitive at all.
For a retard that only picked up a guitar 2 years ago I don't think I did too terribly.
Wrong door bro, the shilling thread is over there
You can send the stems for me to mix it
Don't forget to hit the humanize button for the drums
Don't play them in a pattern. That's retarded. You should prehear every line before you play it. Otherwise, it's just masturbation.

How would that work?
Just looking for some feedback man.
Why don't you go bang another tranny
What's a good software to record my tasty licks?
Not necessarily,
1) playing sequences are good warm up practice
2) they help to remember unusual sounding musical patterns (at least 21, let alone modes)
3) some sequencing patterns are good compositionally as 'two steps forward one step back' da-da-di-da - da-da-di-Da , is similar to language patterns so it makes more sense to practice sequencing than playing every note in ascending or descending order, which would be no real practice at all.
4) If you can't sequence when composing or improvising you'll never be able to use that technique ever, what a waste.
there.

I can't find one that looks like it for under £600.
>What is sequencing
Here is a musical scale
A B C D E F# G#
pic releated.
If I play these notes ascending my pattern will be
A B C D E F# G# A B C D E F# G# A B C ...
WOnderful. but not very musically interesting.
Sequencing is playing the notes in a shuffled up pattern to add a musical lilt, look
B A C B D C E D F# E G# F# A G# B A C B D C E D F# E G#
So, I'm still playing all the notes in ascending order but two notes forward one note back . It sounds more betterer than A B C D E F# G#
There are countless ways of sequencing notes and it's a musical skill to be able to accomplish this. It needs a lot of practice as well sometimes.
What are other first guitars to consider around the same price range as fender player?
Ah, so scale patterns. I know and play quite a few.
Yamaha Pacifica
>previously on Twin Peaks
>Ah, so scale patterns. I know and play quite a few.
Yes, interesting orders to play the notes of a scale pattern in. I was told it is called sequencing. Not to be confused, I suppose, with musical sequencers, which I've no idea what they are.
lol
>Is a scale basically just a pool of notes
Yes
>and chords that compliment each other?
Yes, but you can use chords outside of the basic 7 chords (I,ii,iii,IV,V,vi,vii) of a scale
>How do you go from scales to writing your own music?
Personally what matters in songwriting for me are the progressions, chord types, rhythm, melody and arrangements. Don't sweat too much about which scales used in a song
It is a pattern of notes played up or down. Perhaps you're using "pattern" to refer to scale shapes?
There any duo vocalist/guitarist here? How do you do a good rock scream? Is it just a "fuck it" attitude where you just need confidence to belt it out?
Example of what I mean: youtube.com
Yeah. A fuck it attitude helps. Grab a beer and just sing and play for people. Don't take yourself serious and really do your best for each song. You will do fine user
>Grab a beer
guess it's a good thing I finally found a beer I like recently then
It just loosens me up. Just don't become a drunk and a beer won't hurt
>symmetrical vs asymmetrical clipping overdrive
which one do you use?
I hate to be a killjoy, but you can easily do serious damage to your voice screaming and should consult a teacher if you're going to do it regularly. A one off will be fine, of course.
Asymmetrical i believe
yeah, I know all that stuff already. I'm just curious if there's a trick to it beyond just going for it
You can download the screaming tutorial and watch guides on youtube

What you think that the teacher would teach you fuckin prick
I get throat pain when I sing high (or try to) and sometimes even a taste of blood especially when I try to do distortion or screams. I haven't lost pitch range tho. Someone told me my larynx goes up for the high notes and that just creates to much tension.

>I couldn't get any more of that octaved notes with neck pickup shit

No, I mean I get the feeling I'm either overextending my middle finger, or I'm setting myself up for some sort of awkward transition where my fingers will "trip" over one another while playing another part of the song.
Dont let your dreams become memes user, get a flat top. Besides, the white guy with guitar meme extends to all guitars, not just acoustic. Nothing else matches that organic resonance and those overtones, especially with slide.

man for that same amount you could buy yourself a great amp, some cool overdrives, an ableton license, an ounce of weed and still sound 10x better than whatever that guitar could ever bring by itself, not to mention you'd still have some spare change left.

Fender. Always Fender
knowing the fretboard is going to help, but you're going to have to learn a lot about left/right hand techniques. If you're playing with a pick, I suggest you stop for now since you're likely already competent with it, and instead focus on finger style and slapping
new thread
"Pattern" is usually used to describe how the notes of a chord, scale, or arpeggio form a picture on the fretboard.
No. The design of the pickups and how much all of the individual components absorb energy (or don’t) is the reason every individual guitar sounds the way it does. The more energy is absorbed by the components, the less treble will be in the final sound.
For instance, plastic nuts at the top of the neck are much softer than bone, and will absorb more high frequency sounds. Same with pickups that are too high (magnetic pull dampening the strings), as well as bridges and tailpieces that are loose and can rattle.
The main way pickups influence the sound is called inductance. Pickups are just coils of wire wrapped around a magnet, and the more coils, the higher the inductance of that coil. The more inductance, the more high frequencies it blocks. This is why a lot of high output super-overwound pickups are often described as sounding “muddy”. They have so much inductance that all of the higher frequencies are removed from the signal.
