Should I do 1 or 2? I want to learn both anyway but idk if I’m better off starting with a “better” instrument than a squier or not since I could get 2 amps, a squier bass and a guitar for near the same price as a player bass and amp?
1. buy a squier CV guitar and bass to learn both concurrently, understanding how they relate to each other and alternate for fun?
2. buy a player bass and just learn that only for a while before picking up guitar
Jaxon Thomas
imagine being this lonely
Charles Gray
playability will be the same with a cheap instrument if you bring it to a good luthier for a good setup unless it's got weird shit like a weird neck shape
Nathan Davis
I’m not sure how viable learning both at the same time would be though and if it would be a detriment at a beginner level which is why I’m looking for opinions.
I can get a squier guitar and bass with amps for around £1k which is probably more than enough but I may grow out of it, a player bass and amp alone is around £800 and I guess I won’t ever really grow out of it but I’m just locked in to bass then before actually knowing what I like.
Really though if I got MIM in the long run for both it’s probably only like £400 total difference instead of eventually polishing a turd myself?
Caleb Taylor
Imagine being so kakapilled you can't even afford a squier. Whenever I'm about to complain about my life I remember I'm not Sam and everything sudddenly becomes awesome
Brayden Miller
is there any online resources for bass like justenguitar where its pretty step by step? study bass seems to be pretty poor in order/arrangement and so does SBL

>unironically more talented than all of /gg/ combined >has tons of lessons for free on YouTube >/gg/ still hates him
Find your local music shop, see if they can give you a lesson on each with loan equipment. Decide which you prefer. They’re close enough for a lot of cross over in skills different enough probably slow you down if you take on both at once.
Also if you quit 6 months or a year from now you’ve only got one second hand instrument to start.
P.S I can’t play either.
Ethan Turner
It's perfectly viable to learn them alongside one another, but it depends on your personality type. I'd recommend starting with one (probably guitar) before picking up the other so you'll progress faster and be more inclined to stay with it. It's frustrating enough building muscle memory to play one instrument on it's own and the guitar has more versatility and harmonic capacity and is simply more fun to play/practice by yourself compared to bass.
I'd start with a MIM strat and a cheap secondhand solid state practice amp.

any of you guys know how yellow buttercream is IRL? i have no stores near me so is it faded or bright yellow? pls help
Can someone explain how this type of vibrato is done?
In some of the tutorial videos I've seen it seems like you have to put a part of your index finger on the neck and I can do it like that with my index finger and middle finger even though it's extremely difficult but when BB does it his hand is completely off the neck so how does he do it?
his palm is off the neck but his hand(thumb and first finger) is still on it and he rocks forwards and back on that

Get one with a swimingpool route then you can just swap out loaded pickguards.
Wyatt Anderson
Alternately, go HSS and you can always swap to SSS
Cooper Diaz
make sure to get rid of the squier decal and buy a fender one to put on the headstock Watch as all the gear nerds wank over your pristine tone at shows
Dylan Mitchell
are mim/player swimming pool routed? they have HSH so I’d assume so?
Asher Robinson
I don't think so. I don't think Fender does a pool anymore.
Elijah Phillips
HS.
Or "you should only have as many pickups as you can wire pots for"
I really, really don't like playing on fender modern C necks ("just wrong" between chunky and ibanthin) and I feel like their brick-shaped heels make the upper frets too intimidating for beginners instead of just being natural to play on. Also the radius is just weird. When I curl my fingers they don't follow much of a curve, so it's more natural to play on a slightly flatter fretboard.
Get an epiphone SG. The fender meme is just that, a meme. There are different brands following different traditions at the same price:quality level as memeder.
Jack Allen
SSS and get a single coil sized humbucker to go with it.
Gabriel Allen
I'd like to add that you don't know if you like a guitar until you've played it for two hours.

I know I like a guitar when I see it. I don't know if the guitar likes me until after I've played it.
William Brown
is it unreasonable to contact a store and ask for the darkest pau ferro fb if buying online if they open the box and sets them up before shipping anyway? i think its nice if its brown but some are just far too orange

Carter Green
just don't buy pau ferro
>fender: ugh, cites is expensive >let's only use a little cites shit (ebony) and use this wood that looks like the end result of a night at a family mexican restaurant for most of our other dark colored guitars
Fuck I'd rather have fewer, more expensive rosewood guitars than anything with poo ferro Honestly i'd rather have domestic hardwood with a pretty stain than poo ferro. There are a ton of woods that look better than poo ferro Plain ol maple is better than poo ferro. Fake wood is better than poo ferro
I will never, ever buy anything linked to fender just to ensure that little to none of my money will go towards the purchase, processing, and sale of poo ferro.
they could have done what schecter does and used thin rosewood veneers over maple with neck binding to hide how thin the rosewood is
Luis Hughes
You know, Pau Ferro has been used my high-end builders, and has been considered an exotic wood, for a long time now. It's just when it came into the main stream after cites that people started shit-talking it. And that's just because people don't like change.
Grayson Cruz
They charge more than UK stores + taxes and duty
Brody Evans
this is why I want PF maple is recycled bats rosewood is nice but it’s almost like a $100 strat replica ebony and PF have character and both are used on high end guitars, even Suhrs so idk where the meme about PF being kaka even came from
Colton Morales
Worst that can happen is they tell you no.
Jace Powell
Pau Ferro looks like shit and the only reason people ever liked it was because it was 1: uncommon 2: from some far away land.
Now that it's on every cheap fender the rare richfag treat prestige has been dissolved and you can see it for what it is. Wood that looks like poo.
heat treated maple > rosewood and wenge > flgured maple = koa and korina > ebony > pau ferro

do what you want, but here is my experience I started with bass, learned how to play clean tones, rhythm, some basic music theory and develop some mad callouses. about 4 months later i started picking up guitar, and there were some learning differences but understanding clean tone and being able to lock into a rhythm has helped me fairly well. Like i said do what you want, guitar might be the better choice, but bass is a fun instrument, incredibly easy to start grooving, way easier to just pick up than guitar.

Can I connect an electric guitar to a bass amp? I know that guitar amps can be damaged if you plug in a bass, but what about the opposite?
Eli Clark
Electric Wizard does this with downtuned guitars and a boss fuzz pedal.
It just sounds different while bass damages typical gutiar cab speakers.
Zachary James
Niggers have been doing this since the 60s youll be fine
Jace Ortiz
Then why did stevie ray vaughan use it?
Zachary Hernandez
Don't even know who he is. Don't really care.
Brandon Wright
Yes, and the bass into a guitar amp thing is a myth. It may fuck the speaker because they're not designed for the lower frequencies, but it won't harm the amp.
Jaxon Phillips
because that was before poo ferro was just a cheap rosewood alternative and it still had mojo and prestige
Aiden Reyes
Get a "new"(used) Strat or the J Mascis Jazzmaster?
oh so youre one of those social media parrots? California is capitalist heaven. Why would i want a guitar .ade in a country where they import 3rd worlders to breed their women because their men are too busy killing themselves and jacking off to loli

Jack Sanchez

Asking again since the last thread 404'd before I could get a response. Is the reissue Op Amp Muff any good?
how retarded am I if I want to put one of these in my guitar and have an EMG SA neck and EMG 81 bridge

Shut up the cleans are godlike but the 85 in the neck sounds like crap and the 81 in the neck is only less crap. But I tried an EMG strat and the neck tone was amazing.

Ryder Thompson
Learn to play bass like a regular guitar. Robert Been from BRMC does it quite well.
well yeah I like the sound of guitar and the deep sound of bass which is why I'm just trying to pick one since I'd like to learn both eventually anyway to a good level
should I let the pick bass if you want to be in a band sooner meme influence my decision?
also its a stupid reason I guess but I think bass looks cooler to play

What does american freedom have anuthing to do with your mentall illness? Come over here and ill show you how youre free to disappear and be found 7 months later as a mutilated corpse in mexico. Theres international green light when it comes to pedos no matter what your mental gymnastics make you think.
If you pick bass for that reason you will be in a band sooner but you will be quickly replaced by a truly dedicated bassist
Sounds like you want to play rhythm guitar. Grab a fender and get strumming some funky chord voicings. Then start embellishing. it's being being a bassist but people can actually hear you.
If you knew what an anime for pedophiles was like you would be deeply disgusted. Jailbait is normie territory.

you can study theory for that. instead of imitating the way others use theory.
that’s why dark fbs look so good with light coloured pickguards and maple fbs look good and are often paired with black
like black block inlays and black pickguard on classic jazz basses or the same on superstrats

>Case 2: Butterscotch Blonde, 2-tone sunburst, with Maple fretboards. These basses shall be adorned with a black pickguard, though gold anodized is acceptable for the Sunburst and black, provided the neck is finished with a vintage tint (a mandatory feature anyway on the Butterscotch and 2-tone sunburst, and the 500 ft restraining order on Rosewood also applies in these cases).

Don't even relate them (other than fretboard note names etc.. theory stuff). They are two different instruments and you shouldn't apply guitar techniques to bass or vice versa. Learn both but learn their differences.

Bought some shitplank epiphone to take camping today. It was like $120. Play's nice, low action, intonated almost perfect, no buzz. Doesn't sound great, laminated mahogany looks okay, 3 piece neck but not the cool kind. Might sound better with different strings. Has an ugly ass plate on the headstock that I think is supposed to make it look vintage, that's coming off. I actually got to play it in the store and it just happened to be good. I would not trust the quality of low level epiphones, I would not buy one online. The nut and saddle are perfect in this one but the neck has a little to mich relief. Don't even want to adjust it though because it'll remove whatever Chinese magic is making it playable.

Mason Torres
I just got some hd599s, pretty nice but they're open backs so not good for recording anything that isn't amplified and far from your head since sound does leak out. I prefer using something in ear for recording though. I have some Audio Technica closed backs that I got like 7 years ago that are pretty solid for both mixing and recording, but you have to account for bass frequencies being more pronounced when mixing with them.
Pic related is my recommendation. Don't fall for the Sennheiser meme if you want quality. Beyer's are actually good and way cheaper for more quality. The Pro/Studio models can be had for $200 or less.
Alternatively you can consider these Sony ones which are MIJ. Get the MIJ ones though not the shitty Chinese ones. Pic related goes for $200 as well and has great sound quality and comfort.
The 599s are the first thing I've owned by them in years, I actually like them a lot. I don't think they're as "flat" as the ATs but I've only had them for about a month and I don't think the drivers are completely broken yet. One cool thing is the it has a replaceable twist lock cable, I have a 3ft and 10ft cable that I switch between. If you break one you won't be able to find it locally. I think they were like $230 and tax with the extra cable. They do have felt covered pads, more comfortable but it's easy for them to slide off your head.
Samuel Sanders
Thanks ill take a look at beyerdynamic. Have any usa made product recommendations?
Austin Jackson
Ive always enjoyed well made sony products. Ill take a look into this too thanks.
I will say that I do believe that sennheiser does pad the price because of the name. I got the ones I did solely because my buddy brought his into work so I could try them and I really liked them.
Jose Martin
>he’s tired of no one replying to him SO FUCKING LONELY ON A FRIDAY NIGHT
John Stewart
Most of the USA shit is really expensive. Philips used to make some nice ones but shifted production to China/Taiwan in the past few years. You can check out Grado for MIA stuff but I've never liked how they looked but they are good headphones. They probably have something in the $300 range but I'd stick to German or MIJ myself. Also a lot of these headphones have the larger jack so you might need an amplifier to drive them properly unless you already have that. The MIJ version was great, I A/B a pair with the new ones and the sound quality wasn't all the way there at higher volumes. Low/medium it was still good. Problem now is MIJ 7506 sell for as much as the higher end MDR ones so its better to buy the MDR from Japan.

Well I feel like the ones I have are have are good but that they're on par with some other brands I've used that were $30-$40 less. We'll see after a few more weeks though. I run white noise through new guitar speakers for a few days to break them in, I use these between 1 and 3 hours a day depending on what I have going on.

jhs is SS tier because the guitarpedals subreddit gets so buttblasted if you support them
I wouldn't know about that but I think it's incredible how irate people can get because someone is arguing that their run of the mill tubescreamer sounds nearly identical to a tubescreamer circuit that's put in a cute hand painted box. I also love the true bypass nerds that buy cloned pedals where the clean non coloring buffer is still in the circuit if the pedal is on, then use an external buffer so you end up having multiple buffers anyways. Would have been such a good market to get into years ago because people think electricity is magical and components are some sacred stone that can't be replicated.
