Riff is tough. But with enough tenacity you and I might be able to figure it out. Music like this brings us together.

They're a great band and definitely the ones to watch. Must better and a million times more socially conscious of the music of today

Did u even try?

Its just Cmaj and E min on guitar

not that hard to figure out the riff, on Cmaj add in D note (3rd fret), that's a C9

Why? They make all types of guitars.

So what??

You should check out their site

Thats a superb instrument

Holy fucking
>rent free
No thats not me. I havent even been shitposting. Lay off the internet

Yeah but it's funnier if I pretend its you. Makes my morning coffee taste a little better.

That's a little sad, honestly.

You do you then dude.

Henlo. I'm dumb.

When you have active pickups do you put it in the #1 or #2 jack of an amp?

I'm not sad about it at all. Just in a trollish mood and its amusing to me when people bully jcum.

I dont know why. I'm usually Mr. No Bully.

what kind of amp?

I've been playing for 6 months and have an epiphone les paul (one of the better models). Would a prestige ibanez rg652 be a good upgrade? Are they really easy to play? One complaint I have with the LP is the weight/access to upper frets.

if all your looking for is less weight and fret access than yeah it makes sense

Only sam can write something this stupid with this level of cope

>Looking for a reverb pedal
>behringer dr600: supposedly sounds like muffled garbage
>everything else: $100+ for something that should cost $60 at the most because screw people without amp reverb

Should I just get/make a reverb tank with a bypass switch? They seem pretty simple.

TOO LATE BRUH

Already buying a new guitar?

Yeah, but he can't use capitals or apostrophes.

You wont believe me, but I don't know who Sam is. I'm just a bored user thats taken note of how stupid you are.
Except for your taste in beer, which I can support.

True. Anyways if you spot him report him for evading his bans

It's fine to buy a new guitar if your first one is limiting. 6 months is usually when people do that.

>Buy 21 fret guitar with low output single coils
>6 months later, whether or not you play guitar depends on whether or not you can learn megadeth solos
>buy 24 fret guitar with extra spicy active pickups
>6 months later, only enjoy playing country licks

But looking to go from an LP to an ibanez is a little dumb unless he just needs the extra frets. If you can't play around an LP neck joint or deal with the weight you have technique and physical fitness issues, not gutiar issues.

You will learn how to get sweet (you)'s soon enough.

I have a squier affinity that I got back last June and its pretty limiting. Don't have the money for a new one yet unfortunately

In what way is it limiting?

how do i approach setting all the different volumes and gains. i have volume and gain on amp (preamp?), the master volume, the boost, and then the volume on the guitar.

Start with, in this order:

Guitar volume all the way up
Boost off
Preamp volume/gain to achieve desired level of distortion
Master volume to desired level of loudness
Adjust boost to pick out your desired increase in volume/gain for your solos (etc)

Now you can roll off your guitar's volume to clean up, or engage to boost to get a bit more when you need it.

No matter what I do it buzzes at the high frets, pick ups are poor and obviously
>made in Asia

Doesn't matter

Just get it set up, it'll last you another year at least.

Ibanez is going to be way lighter and yes the frets should be easier to access.

If you have the know how why not.

It's either that or get a Big Sky.

I would get another guitar and use the affinity as a test bed for learning how to set up, wire pick ups and anything else you may want to learn it what I use my Squire affinity strat for these days so I don't fuck up one of my good guitars.

I ordered some pedals and I'm waiting on them to arrive. Still in the market for an overdrive, but am considering the Black Art Toneworks Quantum Mystic if I can catch one on the used market. Apart from that, what other pedals do I need? Compressor is not really required since I'm using active pickups. I'm shooting for a grungy doom tone with drone influences.

Pedals:
> DOD Carcosa Fuzz
> Digitech Obscura Delay
> EHX Freeze (for the aforementioned drone)
> EQD Acapulco Gold clone

I'll probably even pickup more dirt boxes going forward. I just can't seem to help myself. I'm really enjoying hunting down clones of niche and expensive pedals. Seems especially easy to do with overdrives and fuzzes. A BAT Pharoah clone is one I'll probably grab eventually.

What else? The only other thing I can think of would be a chorus (Empress Red Witch) or reverb (EQD Afterneath, Walrus Audio Descent, etc). Or a tremolo pedal. My concern with reverb pedals is that you rarely see any on a proper touring band live board. I'm afraid it will mud everything up. How are live bands getting their verb sounds?

Here you go then dumbass

Wow, you are a cuck

is there a way - even if ghetto - to make a strat have more acoustic volume?

Put the body up against a table. So the contour touches the edge of the table and make sure yoir headstock is touching a wall at the same time. Alternately bite your headstock while you play.

no

what about something like making holes and cavities inside the body

Connect it to an amp for better results than any removal of wood would

Sure.

my second question is how many chords do you personally know

this isn't me btw

How long have you been playing lad?

Yeah I reckon it will come to that, I'll buy probably buy a MIA strat when I have the money and if I have enough of it in a year or so

At least 50. Learn your shapes and you can apply them at different positions.

Poorfag

yeah i should have guessed, only the worst poster would say such stupid and useless suggestion

and then another one, holy fuck. i cant have a fucking cab on my job, i already bought a micro deanmarkley amp and i dont think there's anything smaller than that, other than maybe plugging a vox heaphone amp into a bluetooth speaker. hey maybe i should have done that instead of getting this bee-box.

joyo amps are pure black magic

the guitarist in my band bought a zombie as a gigging head cos he got sick of carrying a combo around. It sounds fucking phenomenal to the point having one generic "tone" knob does nothing to make it unusable. It sounds better and puts out as much volume as most of the other bands enormous 100w heads we play encounter.

It really is a solid piece of equipment and does capture the dual rec sound. I cant wait to a/b it with my jcm900 once i get a power soak for it. And the Bluetooth functionality is great for blasting tunes in between practice.

Cringe

I haven't played acoustic guitar since I was a kid and gave up learning guitar. I started learning again last Christmas when I got myself an electric and I've been loving it.

But this week I'm up visiting my parents and I wanted to practice guitar so I started practicing on my dad's acoustic. I now completely remember why I gave up when I was a kid, everything about this feels completely unnatural. There's a massive unwieldy hunk of wood right under your strumming arm, the action is way higher, the frets weirdly seem bigger.

I realize acoustic guitars can sound beautiful and I just need to git gud but when I was a kid why was the meme among adults that it's best to learn on an acoustic? I used to hear this all the time but it just seems objectively wrong.

Dont hate me ‘cause you ain’t me

how to shop for shirts (tshirts) /gg/

Just show up naked

ive been showing with my job shirt but what for the gigs

How do I add more parts to my song? I've got a good base going where the verse turns into a cool guitar bit but it's technically just the same 3 chords in the same order both times and that's all I have right now. I made another to it too but it's again the same chord progression just played in a different style.

I get them from stores I frequent if they're on sale. We got a couple overstock/off cut stores in the area where I can get like 7 black tees for less than $20. That's me, though.

change order

what if i dont live near stores and have to take a bus to them

Nah/10

lame shit and gay

what are some things to look out for when buying used acoustic guitars? I'm only just now starting to play guitar(I'm 18, been playing for 3 months or so) and I have this really shitty First Act one from when I was like 12 and its sounds okay I guess(?) but it's neck is too fucking small and it's a bitch to play for long periods because it never stays in tune. So I'm considering getting a used acoustic from GC with some pocket change leftover from my shitty job and using it alongside my shitplank strat clone. Any advice for a noob like me?

thats about what I expected

Excessively long.

Consider cutting it down to 10-20 seconds.

Since you’re new, I’d probably prioritize comfort. Make sure none of the frets rattle or buzz when you play (fixing shitty frets on an acoustic is tedious), and avoid brands like Yamaha, First Act, etc. Some people like cutaways since high notes can be uncomfortable on acoustics but really that comes down to preference. Do a little research before you actually make the purchase, just so you know what to expect from the guitar you buy.

Go to the store and find one you like. If you need help ask the guy about acoustic guitars within your budget and your complaints with the one you have.

Bumping this

yeh im a bit of a weird unit, I like to listen to the same droning chords over and over, the whole recording on my computer goes for like 10 minutes, I appreciate the criticism though. also its not done, im going to put other guitar parts and vocals etc

i was gonna post about these
what exactly is the point of this line other than getting fucking nerds of the show to buy their expensive instruments

Nerds have ruined guitars to a certain level. The amount of pedal-collecting faggots that can't finish a single decent song is evidence of that. Guitar as a fancy hobby and money sink has basically ruined guitar as a musical instrument.

Attached: A3M7bIrB4hDPR5KDw56Amw_r.gif (500x465, 493K)

That's another thing, why is learning guitar and sinking a shit ton of money into them such a common thing now? I can understand wanting spend money to upgrade your shitty amp or on pedals get a certain sound or whatever, but it seems like now it's being reduced to hoarding. It's fucking bonkers how much people here will shitpost about their expensive instruments and boutique pedals and amplifiers yet like you mention likely can't finish a song. It's fucking stupid.

>mod it to hell: new pickups, new frets etc.
or
>get a new Fender Telecaster

I like the idea of making a truly unique sound, but if it costs more than getting a new, better guitar I won't bother

No clue

if you're serious about upgrading it and you already like how it plays, why not. Nowadays electronics and your amp means much more than most anything else. Pickups by themselves shouldn't be very costly, and altogether with getting frets reworked it shouldn't cost you any more than it would to buy a brand new Squier.

Game of Thrones is possibly the most popular TV show in the western world.
There are many doctors, lawyers, dentists and other high-income professionals who play guitar and like to flex on the poorfags.

It stop being about quality and starts about the bling around $800-1000 though.

Shut up stupid American who takes everything in life for granted.

Just bought my first electric. i notice there's much more friction when sliding my hand up and down the neck (it's a telecaster). is this just something i need to get used to?

That's not universal to electric guitars, that just means the finish on the neck isn't as smooth as on your acoustic.

If it's really a problem you could probably refinish it yourself if you're handy or you could just pay a luthier to do it.

What finish on the neck? That gloss polyester shit you're better off getting rid off completely and using a finishing oil like gunstock oil (tru-oil etc). If it's nitro, get some really really fine sandpaper and give it a couple of careful passes so it turns matte.

does anyone know where i can get protools for free lol

on a semi-similar note, why is it more uncomfortable to play barre chords on my shitplank with a C shape neck than it is on my even crappier shitplank with a much thicker U shape neck? Am I just holding it wrong or what?

Because the U shape fits your knuckles better? Try adjusting how much of the index finger you use.

The action is probably higher.

TV shows are for adults. Kids are all about video games and webcasts.

Nerds ruin fucking everything. I won't deny that tube amps sound good. But digital effects don't sound good below a certain price point and really good analog effects pedals COST $30 EACH, OFTEN LESS. And you can make them yourself, if you're such a nerd, FOR $30 EACH, OFTEN LESS.

What the fuck is with these assholes and their $100+ boxes of $20 electronics that don't even have the collectible cool factor like ts808s? I've seen fucking boost pedals go for $300. Brand new, production line soldered, $300 boxes of maybe $10 in electronics. Even large companies are guilty of this by artificially restricting supply to justify charging out the ass for century old tech. Sometimes it actually is century old tech.

>dude, germanium resistors lmao

I can get a Katana 50 for $150 used. Is this the best amp I could get in that price range? I mainly want it for the USB output and the effects. I'd like to make psychedelic/garage rock.

Orange valvestate micro-heads don't cost that much more. I've seen them sold with the matching cab for $250 and lower, and they sound a lot better than katana 50s.

50w solid state "practice" amps sound like trash unless you're shooting for permanent hearing damage. I dunno why, they just do.

Yeah, I don't understand this fixation on paying $300 for $30 in parts. And people will own dozens of them.

Yes.

It might be the same people that think a guitar will magically sound better if the neck and body are each a solid unmolested piece of an exotic hardwood and that nitro finish will brighten the tone even compared to a poly coat of equal thickness.

>tfw multi-piece necks are louder and brighter

don't respond if your neck has less than 11 pieces.

Was this made for a competition in how not to make a guitar?

Flat fretboard too.

It was purpose built for pissing off boomers.

Not even slightly radiused?
Is it using fucking nylon strings too?

Good morning /gg/entlemen.
Didn't get to practice yesterday, was my girls birthday and she monopolized me.
Going to practice twice as hard today.

I can guarantee that youre a punk ass bitch that likes "metalcore"

But why is the headstock reversed?

You'd be wrong. The most recent metal I've enjoyed is A7X. Most of the 'metal" I listen to is 0's and early 90's stuff.
Other than that I'm a classic rock guy.
Nice try though, poorfag.

aww man I let jcum troll me. today is a sad day.

I love how the headstock covers the part that says "JCM900".

Thats not my first guitar though

Only a person ignorant to marshall amplification wont know thats a jcm900
Its extra slow on here today it seems. Did you play you gf any songs?

You're ashamed of your amp, 900fag. Why?

No i love it thats just the way it came out. I also really love my sub $200 hybrid joyo zombie amp. Do you like your amp user?

>paying $1300 for new 20 watts switchable to 5
>paying ~$1600 for 15 years old 50 watts + a power soak
which is it lads?

it looks like babies first guitar. very sparse and boring.
my first guitar was a white ibanez S series my dad got me used when I was 15. I hated how boring it looked. I wish I hadn't sold it now, I have a better understanding of how good the S series is.

Anyway the C-1 Hellraiser isn't for everyone. Personally I think it's a gorgeous axe and it fucking screams. I like red guitars.

Yes, although I don't think I'll be able to get it to Australia with me. I might have to sell it.

If you guys think guitars are expensive........don’t get into photography lol

stop trying to resurrect this argument, go find a photography board

Good for you, user. Stop making excuses and finish your fight this time.

Im a fan of simole functional guitars. Beres my latest cop its red and probably the flashiest one i have. My mia strat is black with maple neck so pretty bland but id rather have that than some faggy pastel color
What is it?

Why? They’re both toys for adults and easily comparable. It’s not even an argument either lol

>rent free

We both already know its the latter. Jsut make sure the transfprmers are good. Or replace them with dagnalls

JVM410C; 76lb.

Im sorry but i dont understand and im inclined to believe thats due to your own retardation.

I don't hate Dean as much as some here but it's not my brand of choice. That being said, that quilt is really nice. I need an LP copy.

Here's my other electric, it's a 1968 Kapa Continental, refinished and with a new neck and pickups. Not as flashy as the hellraiser but I love the deep grain.

Sell it and buy a head and cab instead obce down under

I've literally just told you I'm going to sell it.

How much do amp repairs cost? I want to get my Peavey halfstack fixed, it's getting DC to the cone and the cone just pops out to full and stays there.

Tired of all the nice amps being shown off while I've been stuck playing a fucking Line 6 practice combo for two years.

Think before you buy

Dean really fucked up and got greedy with the dime craze and made some bad entry level instruments. Those are chinese made. Staying away from chinese guitars in general is a good rule of thumb. But the korean stuff is superb. Its made in WMI same place as many other brands like schecter ltd prs etc.
I never called your guitar kaka but i dont really agree with the stain choice. Something lighter would be nice.
Heres the grain on a chink dean im procrastinating to refinish.

>i might have to sell it
Thats not saying outright that youre selling it you cunt. Fucking kiwi brain

You want to take a 410C on a plane? You're more than welcome to.

It can get expensive. Maybe get a job so you can buy a real amp?

It wasnt really a stain "choice". The guitar originally came in a burnished red that I wasnt able to get all the way off, best I was able to do was expose some of the grain. I like red but hated that particular shade.

My peavey 260 is a real amp, I dont want to replace it I want it fixed.

If it was a piece of gear i really liked/needed that was unobtainable in my new location i would go out of my way to bring it with me
That being said youre probably a nasty chink since youre immigrating to australia.

Cool, meet me in the UK and you can take it to Australia for me.

So you havent took sandpaper to it?
Well then get a job and get it fixed. Im not trying to be pessimistic but go in the repair ready to spend $300 at least. Best case scenario youre an idiot and its just a fuse or something else you could have fixed. Worse case is busted transformers and then any other electrical component. Keep difficulty of obtaining and higher price of vintage/niche components in mind.

Deal but its gonna run you 7k usd.
Youre not doc are you? Why are you going to australia? Are you a felon?

I've researched what the issue is, I can't fix it on my own. And why do you think I don't work? I just wanted a general idea of the out-of-pocket I'd be looking at.

>7k usd
Deal. When can you be here?
>doc
Sure am.
>Why are you going to australia?
You read the news?

>So you havent took sandpaper to it?

I did. This thing was painted in 1968, it's not just some nitro top coat. It was real paint that went into the grain.

This is what originally looked like (not my pic, just found a pic of the original paint job)

The empire's been collapsing into the ground for a few years now, I'm going somewhere sunny.

Check out jerry willard's easy baroque pieces for classical guitar

Isn't that a PA amp?

Why is playing in E flat best for lead under so many circumstances? Am I just a faggot or does it almost always sound better no matter what your aiming for?

Nope, bass head

Try using mineral spirits and a 200 grit lightly followed by increasing increments of grit

Oh so larp
Good cleans im assuming.

>Good cleans im assuming.
Crystal. And the reverb is super roomy. I love this amp. I pre a Rockman X100 into it for distortion and that Boston chorus, thats been my tone for 20 years. I miss it, I hate this fucking Line 6

>Brexit is a LARP
I wish. Off to the colonies instead.

Give it a rest will you

Why dobt you co e to California and duck thot spics while you look for a white woman you will have children with who you will later cheat on with some asian snatch down the line like all the other successful white guys here?

Are you having a stroke

Fuck*

While Fender has stirred up some controversy and publicity with newly unveiled GoT what has Nigson done?
Inb4 duck dynasty les paul standards

>the States
Yeah, your post pretty much sums up why I'm not going anywhere near there. And Canada is fucking arctic. Upside-down colony is best colony.

no u

Pretty sure china owns like 80% of the land in australia.

Gibson should pair up with Netflix and release some Witcher themed flying v's

There are a bunch of Chinese people over there. Australia is definitely where I'd run to if I were Chinese.

this, just buy behringer pedals lmao

shitty blues licks dont showcase a gear's tone well

How? Clean channel, plenty of sustained ringing notes as well as fast picking, lots of bending. In what way is it not s good tone tester?
