What is the cheapest passable loop pedal? I want to use a loop pedal but I'm broke.
I hate his hair I think its fake and it looks retarded
Pick one. It's gotta be 2388 for me..
These are as good as any looper I've tried, only around $65
2342IV looks so clean
No clue. Go on a music website and search
For me, it's 2660.
Ah yes, the lawsuit era.
My father had one of those Aria Pro-II Martin "copies" that were better than what Martin shat out at the time.
It had enough exotic woods in it to make greenpeace cry.
One of each
lmfao none of that wack shit
It would be perfect if not for that nub of a headstock
Needs moar toanwoodz.
Is it ever worth buying 2 of the same guitar, as in an SSS Strat and a HSS Strat?
Well those are two different guitars now arent they?
>Only 3 piece neck
sure
Well kind of. Its the only the pickups that are different so I just don't know if its worth it or better off buying something that is totally different in every regard other than pickups
too many strings
That depends on how rich you are, probably.
Does it matter if I play a song with a slightly different strumming pattern?
If you change even one strum, Sammy will sneak into your house at night and give you AIDS.
It's called 'interpretation'. Try it out. Stop being a tab zombie.
Can any of you here prove that you can play on time to a basic 4/4 drum track at, say, 120 bpm?

If I had recording capabilities
>trying to get serious about improving my technique so I can develop some speed, day 3
>day 1 went well
>last two days have had to stop early because of tingling/numbness
I know better than to push through that, I've hurt myself before. I keep watching technique videos to make sure I'm doing everything right, and it all looks good.
>mfw I realize it's probably the result of nerve damage due to a work accident a decade ago and I may never get around it
Bill Gates?
hold your hands in front of yourself palm up. that is how you want your wrists. place the guitar neck in your hand and try not to fuck with how your wrist is positioned. focus on being relaxed at all times and finding the best position for each note or chord. watching videos won't be as good as that.
if you need better picking hand technique just float your hand and stop anchoring.
What are the Chinese knock off sutes I hear about? I can’t find any fake Les Pauls on aliexpress
I'm not doing your work for you
ditto, $40 used occasionally.
Maybe Mooer or some chinese whatever on ebay. There's a Kikko that looks like it's copying the ditto.

i checked yesterday after work and i'm HIV-free
HOW TO ATTACH A REGULAR HUMBUCKER TO AN ACOUSTIC GUITAR'S SOUNDHOLE HELP MEEEEEEEE
just screwing a piece of wood on the guitar's top (and screwing the pickup on them) would damage the guitar top and make it fragile and prone to cracking
i thought of gluing two thin woodblocks on the inside of the guitar and screwing the pickup on the top of them
there's these adapters that grab the soundhole that you can buy but i can't find them on the internet anymore
this is a stupid idea. even a humbucker will catch the harmonic resonance of the soundbox and feedback terribly
bachateros all over dominican republic use it
its sam what do you expect truly
?
look what's on his guitar's soundhole youtube.com
go get fucked
No thanks ill leave the getting fucked part to you my aids infested monkey
read again. i tested and i'm hiv free. i barebacked 3 trannies in my life (for free) and i'm hiv free.
now please stop derailing the GUITAR thread and let's talk about how to attach a humbucker to an acoustic guitar without damaging it.
You said hiv free. It has already evolved i to aids
I feel like I have a moral obligation not to help you
why not
just f5
sam they said you were good, post a vocaroo
who? what?
You do know that it can sit dormant (undetected) for years, right?
Sam is the best!
GUITAR IS TURNING YOU GAY
that doesnt mean it will not show if you take a blood test like i did you fuckin BURGER
it takes 6 months AT MOST to show on bloodtests.
Where's the HH strat with a hardtail bridge?
That's exactly what it means.
who here listening to beautiful bachata guitar sounds on this thursday
Which pedals should I rearrange? Not really happy with my dynamics in the top chain.
When will we hear more of your black metal project, Sammy?
GONNA GRILL UP SOME BURGERS BOYZ WHAT SHOULD I LISTEN TO?
bump
2459 because i'm a van halen fanboy
shut up sammy nobody is buying this 3rd person bullshit larp
this is a keyboard dumbass
COME ON MOTHERFUCKERS I WANT SOME HIGH TEST GRILLIN MUSIC. FUCK IT GONNA START OFF WITH PAT TRAVERS
This is a vegetarian thread. Take your burgers elsewhere.
Why are wah pedals way bigger than other pedals?
So you can get your whole foot on it. But they make mini wahs now.
Donner or Behringer pedals? Behringers are $25 ea and Donners are like $40-$50 ea.
Behringer
You get what you pay for...
guys how do you into pedals? i need to pick some up and the local Dr Guitar only has a testing area for Boss pedals, is it really just as easy as "hey man can i test all of them in the glass case"?
Lmfao. No.
Now give me a song to hear. Im listening to shes a bad mama jama currently
Yes. Do research ahead of time for what you are looking for so you aren't wasting too much time, and then just test them out.
what would "do research" look like?
Well, have in mind what type of effect you are looking for, and research the demos on youtube to get a feel of their general sound, so you can narrow down your search IRL
Do you know what reviews are? How about google? Better yet youtube?
The only bad thing about Behringer is their plastic housings. If you're a bedroom warrior (let's be honest, most people here are), they will be fine. As far as internals, most pedal companies buy their internals from Behringer anyway.
Meat is Murder by The Smiths
>If you're a bedroom warrior
I'm not. So these people can take my advice: you get what you pay for. Behringer sell cheaply-made clones of actual, better pedals. Just save your $$ and get the real deal.
>most pedal companies buy their internals from Behringer anyway.
source?
not true, all pedals under $100 are the same quality
No
apologies lmao, just looking for advice. it feels redundant to google every single peddle and every single variant of them for hours at a time instead of just testing them in person, and besides that i don't know the extent of what i can purchase. be less crass
right, that makes more sense, thanks for that
any tips to memorize my bass fretboard better? I got the basic techniques down and I want to start learning songs, but I don't want to keep relying on tabs.
alright got some Dunlop 65 lemon oil
Guess I'll just jump right in then
Fuck off, Boss shill.
taste it
Boss is alright, prefer EHX, Zvex and DBA over them though.
Just don't get a behringer distortion pedal. Those are actually terrible.
I would say just focus on the first 5 frets of the E and A string first. Once you've memorized that, and understand scales, then it should start to just click what the other frets are beyond those 10 frets.
Educate yourself
No they're not. See
Sorry, I've tried many B pedals and they have terrible output, high noise floor and literally crack from getting stomped on. I would recommend using IRL experience instead of relying on hearsay and vagueness from basement dweller on youtube
The rest are fine but the distortion pedals suck. I know that first-hand.
what's with the behringer shilling?
tempting. it does smell nice
Also, not to mention, scope out other players boards when you play out. I almost never EVER see Bs in the wild, being used be actual gigging guitarists. Only at pawn shops, and I guess your bedroom maybe?
You do realize that guy is the founder of his own successful effects pedals company?
probably just a poorfag
You do realize those pedal builders are basementdwellers?
This is a proud poorfag thread.
We Squier. We Epiphone. We Behringer.
Gear snobs to the back.
>Head of JHS
>Basementdweller
.... yes? Did you even listen to his voice and demeanor? I was waiting for his mom to come over and give him a plate of sandwiches for himself and the cameraman.
Anyways, you can kid yourself if you want. You can believe a rando youtube video where you don't know the agenda of the youtuber as well as the actual condition of the pedals (if they've been modded or there was post production on the youtube video itself).
OR you can actually go try these pedals and use them IRL application. You can go look at the pedalboards of bandmates and the other bands your band plays with. I've done this later, and Behringer is garbage.
But hey, enjoy them. If they sound good to you, well, I guess ignorance is bliss. I'm glad you like them user.
Are you trying to tell me the head of JHS has a hidden agenda of selling effects pedals for a different competing company?
Is the Katana the most popular amp among soibois or what?
Now you're just trying too hard.
He's desperately trying to justify his $300 pedals.
HERE WE GO LADS.
WILIIE NELSON RADIO GOONG THRU THE JOYO INTO THE MARSHALL 4X12
>Behringer
nobody cares what a basement dweller on Yea Forums has to say. go watch some anime larper
You're not in a band. You've never even played in front of other people. You're larping.
And badly.
FORGOT PIC
What are you implying?
IS TRIGGER THE MOST FAMOUS MARTIN GUITAR?
Nothing imma cook burgers and listen to willie nelson radio on pandora
That, or the one Kurt Russell smashed.
>when you finally activate that pinky after neglecting it since the beginning
Also HS is the strongest pickup config
probably. how many famous musicians actually have a named instrument that's also well known? not many.
not many being naming your guitar is gay as fuck
Post it i dont believe i know it.
This is true.
Lenny comes to mind tho
BB King
SRV
Keith Richards
Eric Clapton
Neil Young
Jerry Garcia
Getting intimately attached to your guitar as if it were a good friend is one of the most fun parts of playing guitar.
Soure, you can like your guitar but giving it a name is so reddit
B.B King and Willie Nelson were doing it decades before reddit was invented.
Doesn't change the fact that it's a reddit attitude
People have been naming their stuff since the beginning of time. Stop being a meta faggot.
At this point you're just using "reddit" the same way middle-schoolers use "gay".
>thing I dont personally do
i...it's r-r-r-reddit guys
You sound like a nigger retard
How do these people that think Reddit is so bad, know so much about Reddit?
Yea Forums used to feud with reddit before raids were banned
I know, I was around. But I think they've spent more time there than they care to say.
The reddit beef is relatively new and is long predated by the raid ban. Reddit was never really even on Yea Forums's radar until Yea Forums started to get a kind of weird voyeuristic following on reddit that resulted in lots of redditors coming to Yea Forums and being widely considered to be massive faggots with shit memes. A large part of it is also early-mid 2010's paranoia about "stealing our memes" which Yea Forums used to feel very strongly about.
Its why some memes are unusable now. Rage comics was a Yea Forums thing i was there.
yo WHATS UP guys, its user from /gg/ and i betcha cant play this!
there is no such project
>tfw suck at pizzicato
Most gigging bassists play a song or two with a pick, but how far can I go in life playing bass exclusively with a pick?
Ace Frehley. The Gibson Ace Frehley Signature model is pretty popular and known. If gibson did another run of them, they might get out of their financial breakup.
yea i don't use a cheese grater for a pic so i'm out
Fuck yeah HS. my main is an HS and I love it.
youtube.com
How do I get this tone? It's stingy as hell, is it a nail thing or something?
There was at least one black metal demo by sammy
Model?
dats dem tubes son
how does that mean sam is working on a black metal project?
It was his only good post he ever made and everyone said that. I presumed he'd pursue it, even gave him a bm alias.
>cheese grater for a pic
?
it's just because it was an original song
>pic
*pick
were you complaining about the audio quality? sorry my current mic is shit
AND HERE WE ARE.
it doesn't look good
It looks good
kys
I put these on my les paul and keep it tuned to standard.
Fucking fight me.
Wouldn't put anything lower than 11 on 24.75 so that's fine. Also better for the tone.
Before the patties this is what it looks like
>Child scale
Who here is in a band??
Right patty looks moldy
that's cool but i can tell you don't play/practice daily and have no intentions of being in a touring band
i am
mine is nicer
im about to finish it and go back to playing GUITAR
that's a FREEDOM burger, as american as it gets
i am, thanks
Not anymore
thoughts on behringer pedals?
You dont even have old style mustard
Yeah lotsa fungi and onions
Good for bedroom, shit for a working band.
Those legs
>turk genes
dim. arpeggios and random shred, close enough
hows the RAT I nearly bought one
close enough, i'll take it! cheers
It's cool. Doesn't really deliver that unruly fuzz I was hoping for, but it's a good Distortion.
Listening to SANTANA
I am but it doesn't have any other members yet.
MAN IT'S A HOT ONE
I exclusively play only jpop. recommend me some pickups.
what the hell did this become, /bedroom selfies general/?
any that has a bomb in it
>that's cool but i can tell you don't play/practice daily and have no intentions of being in a touring band
Been playing for 15 years actually and was a music major. But, nope have no intentions of every doing anything with a band or touring. Why give up a cushion government job for that retarded life?
Absolute shit. But check out JHS's latest vid on them.
>youtube.com
lol it's a schecter 006. pretty sure they discontinued it. I popped a nazgul in the bridge and currently have the stock Duncan design SC in the neck. Double tracking them is surprisingly pleasant on cleans.
Suhr aldrich. Also my boy marty friedman killed it with j rock in the last vid i posted.
wtf why would anyone not use them?
Heres the thing:
Their clones of more expensive analog pedals are 1:1, because everyone buys their analog components from them anyway.
Their clones of digital pedals are iffy. Try before you buy.
Lastly, their construction is a little cheap. Your pedal may sound the same but it's in a plastic housing that won't last more than a year or so.
006s are cool. I've wanted one for a while. I had an 004 once. I regret selling it now.
couldnt you make your own case? that’d be pretty dope, actualy i might do that
Plastic. Even though boss pedals aren't super boutique or unique or anything, at least the metal shell holds up.
Did I fuck up lads?
Just recorded this my negroes

If I put any of the songs on rocksmiths tracklisting on like Spotify, would you be able to play along
One's I've played one thousand times like Don't Look Back in Anger, All Right Now, etc. But for the most part I usually just use it as a game/tab reader.
Rocksmith to Tab is also cool too. Helped me get the intro to Cliffs of Dover down.
But to answer your question, in general, no.
I 100%d creep
I like how uncommon they are. they look really goofy in pictures but I think they have some personality. I've had mine for 12 years so I guess I'm pretty acclimated to it. I will say that the stock pickups are hot trash but it plays great and it's comfy as fuck. I checked and the used ones are like $200 which is a fucking steal if you're into it.
Wish I could find one for 200
Its an impromptu party night my aspen amigos
>tfw no strat
no other guitar can make up for these inbetween pickups sound, it just doesnt work
Then you fucked up
We all come to this conclusion at some point in our lives user
Probably still better than you though kek.
Yes
yeah but i sold my strat
do you think a sss tele fills the void (and the need)?
Doubt it
At that point why not just get a strat?
too poor and tired to handle another guitar
adding a middle pickup to my tele would be easier
Is there any such thing as a super strat but instead of the middle single coil it has a Jazzmaster pickup?
Has the superjazzstrat been invented yet?
why google something when you can post it on /gg/?
I thought it might invite discussion about whether such a thing would even be a good idea.
WE ALL KNOW RHANDY RHOADS WAS OZZY'S BEST GUITARIST EVER BUT WHO WAS SECOND?
jak e lee
metal slide is to abrasive on the strings
glass slide is too harsh on itself, ive had 3 and they all broke
what do
Ceramic slide.
I heard about using the effects loop on a tube amp as a clean channel using a pedal for a pre-amp, and possibly having some weird A/B switch fuckery to switch between that and amp distortion instead of a distortion pedal in front of the amp.
I tried it but then looked and my guitar was plugged into "send". It still made a sound, but can that fuck something up?
i buy my behringer shit from pawn shops so it's already been stepped on and it works fine
>tfw you keep all your pedals on your desk
