>just got paid + bonus should I buy this fuckin this already? I see it at the music store behind the counter and I'm scared to try it. Is it even possible to remove the bridge guard I want to be able to palm mute
pls help me with the chords. want to play it the next week

I didn't like it at first either but now I prefer it to the smaller headstock

Thanks for the advice! My buddy had a 2014 Les Paul that constantly went out of tune. Right around the time Gibson started to have troubles. Btw here's my guitars
The big one is alright in a vacuum, but knowing the smaller exists I would have to go with it. But then again I like the tele headstock over all of them.

how do you guys keep the motivation to learn a song that will take a month to perfect? I feel like such a loser i always start songs and never finish as I'm not performing them or doing it for class. So if the song is complex i rarely get past stage one.

thats pretty much what i do. i picked a hard ass song, but for a solo piece it's really well rounded. youtube.com/watch?v=3gceXRb9QXg it's such a fluid mixture of blues/ragtime/jazz that i can't help but love it.

If there was value in targeting """Linux""", the audio industry would've already done it. The Mac and Windows ecosystems already work well and have for decades. You haven't made a case at all for how Linux adds marginal value over current offerings. You're literally just raging because you have some sort of obsession with Linux. It will never, NEVER even remotely approach being a premier audio production ecosystem. Bookmark it and do us all a favor, including yourself, and an hero.

I'm just gonna wait until there's one of these that's great for guitar and bass, models an ad200 and an svt, and costs less than $200. That will happen, right?
I have one (Mapleglo). Yes you can remove the bridge guard, but you should try it, the neck really isn't for everyone. As with everything about it really, its not like you'll find anywhere else and the whole Rickenbacker experience is a love/hate thing in my experience (e.g., changing strings is a joke with that bridge, the blend nob never really works properly and the "high output" pickups are only high output in the world of even weaker Rickenbacker vintage pups).
Hunter Peterson
Not him, but... Progress in linux isn't being made by the industry, it's being made by autists who want to create free software. The industry is not going to target linux when they know people will just use free alternatives. The only thing that will change that is when people use linux anyway, and they have to choice but to support it. That's what's already innevitable at this point for gaming, and the same thing will happen for audio. It's way cheaper to produce a game on linux with cutting edge tools than windows, and that's even with the burden of cross-compiling for other platforms. Audio has no such burden.
It might be hard to understand from a purely consumer perspective, but an open source foundation lowers the bar of entry to development so much that eventually a critical mass of available libraries and technology occurs.
Imagine if one audio company bought up all the proprietary algorithms of zoom, boss, line6, pro tools, etc. That is essentially the advantage open source software has over companies. They are all contributing to the same mission. What's more, much of this technology is licensed in a way that stipulates either copyleft or non-commercial use. And for the meantime, linux is THE platform of open source.
It's not a matter of what companies want. The result is innevitable.
Jackson Johnson
Let's be honest guys, is there still a reason to use amps? I'm moving to a smaller place soon and barely have space for my amps. I have a red knob twin and a vibro champ, I love them but they are fragile, old, heavy, loud. But I also have a GT-100 with great amp sims and a computer, decent monitors and a good interface. I'm really not sure if amps still have any advantages besides physical knobs and consistent sound.
Wyatt Lewis
I'm on the same page. I just have one tiny practice amp for convenience. Otherwise I use just a zoom g3n. How's the Gt100? With the zoom, I'm most impressed by the cab sims and the amps, but I'm jealous of the boss pedal sims. Even though I think the cab sims are great, most of the time I leave them off for convenience. How does the GT100 sound with just an amp sim and no cab? Have you tried playing bass through it? The zoom handles bass really well, just like analog pedals and amps.
Connor Stewart
>If there was value in targeting """Linux""", the audio industry would've already done it. What is it about basic literacy that's so challenging for you? Why do you think "audio industry" means "Linux audio industry"? At which point did I say that? >The Mac and Windows ecosystems already work well and have for decades. This is not what I'm arguing, I'm making a speculative statement about a possibility not the current state of things. >You haven't made a case at all for how Linux adds marginal value over current offerings. Because I didn't originally claim it does. I think there are some pretty okay programs like Ardour, Zynaddsubfx, the Calf plugins, Audacity, or the Bristol synth emulators to name a few. It's also not too surprising that Linux is way better than Windows and Mac in terms of audio programming languages like Supercollider, Csound, or Puredata but that's pretty niche. I also think the more modular approach of Jack is a WAY better idea than the more walled garden monolithic approach most DAWs take on Windows and Mac in terms of creative possibilities, it can be quite a bit of a clusterfuck in terms of configuration but that's a software issue which can be fixed with more developers, time etc. Like I said though, my main point was speculative, my original point was about why Linux is not the best audio production OS and how it could be if it had the user base, not that it is currently the best. >You're literally just raging because you have some sort of obsession with Linux. I find you being this angry about this pretty funny to be honest. >It will never, NEVER even remotely approach being a premier audio production ecosystem. That's a pretty bold statement for an illiterate. >Bookmark it and do us all a favor, including yourself, and an hero. Lmao what year is it?

I used to have a proper vintage Vox AC30, it was even too loud to gig with unless you're playing a stadium or something (and even then, people would find it obnoxious these days from what I hear). It was great but essentially useless.

Libgen doesn’t seem to have “Music Notation: A Manual of Modern Practice (2nd)” by Gardner Read. Anyone know where I could find it?
you're on your way I suggest buying one of these wristbands and sliding it onto your guitar neck, they're like training wheels for when you don't really have the control to intentionally mute/not play the other strings yet
Maybe he strung it badly. I've seen guitars that would not stay in tune that had barely a turn or so of string on the tuner. I carefully wrap the longest amount of string I can on the tuning posts and all my guitars and basses stay in tune well enough.
Landon Baker
>only play stuff you like
What else, only listen to music you already know? If it's not bait, it's terrible advice. My humble musical proficiency and understanding improved dramatically when I started studying classical music.
does this general have meme strings? i've been buying ernie balls forever, without ever thinking about it, really. but now i read that they are actually kind of shitty? thomann has string sets for 1,50€, that's kind of hard to beat considering EB strings start at 4x that, and d'addarios are even more expensive. or should i got with coated elixirs? i'm very lazy and only change my strings like 3-4 times per year.
Samuel Carter
Fat-dick-daddy-darios are fine.
Nathaniel Bell
where the fuck do you live where d'addarios are more expensive than EB's?
Xavier Wood
they are roughly the same, its just that the cheapest EBs are slightly less than 1€ cheaper. but it doesn't make the choice any easier
Carson Watson
goddamn boi, girls don't normally have lows down that good Too bad the instruments are boring as shit
Ian Anderson
fresh EBs don't sound very bright, it's like putting on slightly worn strings D'addys are bright as fuck new, but they wear out really fast Coated strings are bullshit
Ryder Rogers
I can attest to this D'Addario coated strings are a retarded meme
Oliver Gomez
I use nylon tape flatwound on my fretless bass. They're black too, so many people ask me what's up with the strings.
Nicholas Phillips
thomann ultra cheap strings are quite shitty but good enough for practice or as emergency backup

Fucking can’t stand d’addario acoustic strings. Most retarded product ever

Elixirs last forever. Highly recommended if you don't change strings often
David Anderson

Blake Cooper
The JM JM sounds fucking killer. I played one at my guitar store(Sweetwater brick and mortar) and I was fucking sold, neck feels fantastic and the pickups sound great. Bridge and tuners were kinda crummy, but what do you expect of Squier QC, it's an easy fix regardless. I bought one and it should arrive in a week or so.
Christopher Ramirez
ok. im forgiving of a lot of shit but why the fucking dark bronze knobs. it looks so fucking horrid.
My guitar won't intonate "properly" without elixir strings. With ernie balls the low E saddle has to be all the fucking way forward.

I went to the pawn shop and found 2 guitars i really liked (babys first guitar) i found a mij jackson (looked up serial found out its a 1997 dgmt jackson for 150 bucks. Is this a steal? I noticed the whammy bar is missing though, is it easy just to slide in another into the slot. I also found a ec 400- something ltd but it was 350. I really liked the feel of both of them but i have no clue what the difference is besides the 200 dollars. Is one significantly better than the other? Thanks in advance.
Ian Murphy
Pawn shop guitars are ass. Buy from a music shop and you might be able to get a complimentary setup and some advice on the spot from someone who knows their shit.
In general, look for this shit >rusty shit, finish defects >play in the tuning pegs >noises as you operate the knobs and switches >noise in general >if all switch positions (pickup selections) sound equally strong >how smooth and shiny the frets look >if the frets are actually set in the fretboard or if they're poking out on the edges >if very light pressure on the neck is enough to put the guitar out of tune >all the hardware being present, they might have the whammy bar in back >if it comes with a case >if a string breaks when you try it out Don't worry about this shit >if it's in tune >if the strings sound dull >if it sounds out of tune even though you just tuned it >if the strings are too high or too low and buzzing against the frets Because it's all fixed through adjustments and maintenance which guitars generally need yearly/biyearly and after being moved from one storage mode to another (wall hanging to sitting on a stand for instance).
Just make sure the neck doesn't wobble. Meaning that when you swing the nevk around a bit without trying to bend it, the note should be relatively steady without any warble or vibrato.
Besides that, fuck it. Just get what you like.
Angel Jones
The gauge given by the manufacturer is not precise, and different metal compositions have different tensions. These affect intonation.
Ernie ball must be selling me dogshit then because I've never had a proper stair pattern with their strings
Jacob Perez
Can anyone tell me how to mute better? This is me, I'm just learning guitar and want to mute the strings I'm not using when I'm doing power chords and scales. Anyone have any resources or advice for this?

Logan Ortiz
uh, don't pick strings you don't want to hear in the first place d00d

Brandon Smith
you need pre-EQ. That's pretty much what's going on there, just different filtering. Just cut various frequencies until the chainsaw tone goes away, then add the lost EQ back post.
Hello fellas I wanna play 80% metal and 20% little of everything else I’ve set my eyes on either Ibanez rg 421 or Yamaha 120h. Both are hard tails with dual humbuckers and 300 dollars. Which should I get? If anyone has another suggestion, please do share
Jeremiah Hughes
I kinda like the Yamaha(though that's my opinion, I don't really like super strat-type bodies too much). If you're into that kind of thing, a black-on-black one might suit you
Josiah Ramirez
Looks like a Fender Mustang GT 100.
Isaiah Morales
Jazzmaster or a Epi Dot and mod in a Bigsby?
Brandon Russell
That’s the one I was looking at desu. I think like the cleaner/more versatile sound of the Yamaha, but the Ibanez has a 5 way switch and 24 frets...
Kevin Price
I would probably get lynched for saying this if this was shitpost powerhour, but 24 frets doesn't make that big of a deal unless you do a lot of wanking high up on the fretboard.
Benjamin Clark
You need two things for metal, my man. EMGs, and abalone.

I use Ernie Ball strings for acoustic guitar and bass. Never had an issue, and they’re way better than the D’addario and DR strings I used before. I use these now: Everlast Coated Light (11-52) for acoustic Cobalt (50-105) for E Standard Cobalt (65-130) for Drop A#

Soon people will want a full DAW on their phones. Penguins will then be kings.
It kind of does, so the sounds you get out of them are pretty similar. It comes down to the preference.
Both should be fine, they're pretty straightforward in that regard and you can mod it in the future. I actually thought about getting an RG421 myself as a second guitar for cleanwanking and metal, I love Ibanez finishes and I'm fine with Quantum humbuckers. If you're looking for a straight up metal guitar you might also want to check out Jackson, LTD or Schecter, they have these kind of guitars at a similar price point.
Ryder Clark
Any opinion on the LTD viper 10? It’s a a hundred bucks cheaper than those ones but it’s another hardback with dual pickups. I feel like there’s a catch to it

Justin Young
Do you my man. Have you thought about an amp?
Kayden Ramirez
cover your bed with a blanket plus a sheet!
Justin Price
Not yet but I heard from a article on ultimateguitar that 90% of the sound is gonna depend on the amp and only maybe 10% on the guitar itself.
Anthony Lee
He's just stripped the sheets. Inevitable after your mother visits.
Gabriel Jones
10's are generally the most entry level you can get, so be weary of that. 100 and 200 series are more of actual budget guitars that are more along the lines of RG421. If you can get your hands on a 330 series LTD with active pickups that would be the sweetspot for you, but I don't think they carry them anymore in major stores since it's an older lineup.
I feel you, though sometimes that $100 bump is actually worth it in this price range, it could mean different pickups for example. You can upgrade everything yourself of course, but sometimes the build quality is straight up better. But it only applies if you can actually play the guitar before buying it. If you're ordering online you're playing a lottery no matter if it's a 200, 300 or 400 USD guitar since the quality control is usually not very consistent.
90% is amp plus pickups. You can put some nice pickups into your starter guitar, then transfer them into the new guitar when you upgrade. Just hold onto the old ones.
Connor Baker
Hold onto the old pickups for when you sell your starter guitar, I mean.
Brody Hughes
My boss gave me a GC gift card as well as overtime for covering my lazy ass coworkers shift when it was crazy busy Friday, bought new strings, picks and a new strap too Feels good getting to use fresh picls and strings
James Flores
But what would be the difference between a viper 10 vs the Yamaha or Ibanez? I know the parts are “different” but it seems to perform well from what I seen? 2bh most of the guitar reviews are just “here are the specs, it’s a nice guitar” and then they just jam the rest of the video
Easton Reed
GHS Boomers .10-.46 with wound 3rd. DYXL is the product code.
Ryan Phillips
Roto yellows are the best strings I've used and they are amongst the cheapest, try them out if you want.
Robert Scott
When looking at them from afar? Not much difference. I'd say that the lowest of the low series like 10's get even worse quality control than the others and aren't worth it. It's the same deal as with GIO Ibanez series, there's just no point even if you're looking to mod them.
If you can try them before buying it's strongly recommended. It's how you actually know how they perform. Also note that a lot of reviewers play through amps that are a lot more expensive than those guitars. In this price range playability can differ drastically from model to model. Shit like pocking or uneven or unpoloshed frets, offset bridges, gaps in neck joints, warping necks, bad finish jobs, shitty tuners or electronics - it's all the usual with these and it can very much affect the sound and the feel. While you usually have the same pickups (like Quantum for Ibanez or LH-150 for LTD) for most of the pre-$500 budget guitars series, what you actually pay for is a chance of getting slightly better quality control and I bet guitars above the absolute beginner level are getting better treatment in that regard.
Juan Butler
Dam son i'm well jell. What is that purple and yellow beaut? And those danelectrics fuck.
Jaxson Miller
Would love to try one
Landon Anderson
Can you test them in a store? The necks will differ greatly.
Nolan Price
I was thinking an eq after all the gain and what not in the preamp but I couldn't remember if an fx loop ran before or after that stuff. Lowering the highs with an eq before the preamp is a lot like turning your tone knob down on your guitar in the sense that you're really just applying a low pass filter at the front directly to your clean guitar signal, applying an eq later in the signal path would probably have a more subtle effect on the overall sound.
Liam Nelson
How do I get the red highlight to follow the notes in tux guitar? Whenever I press play the marker just stays the first note.
I will try an used MIM Tele Classic 60s next week, it should be end up being my first good guitar for 450€ after 14 years of playing on and off, I'm pretty hyped about this. Only issue I have with it is that it doesn't have a vibrato, but I guess it will force me to actually git gud instead of relying on meme techniques. I will probably buy one of those new CV Squier Jaguar as a second guitar once I get a job tho.

M9 means major chord with a natural 9th. So Db major with a 9th (eb) Db9 is a dominant Minor 7th has root, minor 3rd, perfect 5th, minor 7th Half diminished root, minor 3rd, flat 5th, minor 7th Full diminished root, minor 3rd, flat 5, double flat 7th (c eb, gb, a) A 1/2 diminished chord is a minor 7th with 5b, a dominant is a major with 7b.

Different guy, but you know as well as I do that in DbM9 the "M" is a stand in for "Maj" which is denoting the 7th's tonality. "Db" by itself indicates the tonality of the triad and there's no reason to indicate further, so no one does. DbM9 and DbMaj9 to me indicate the same chord, just the former has it written retardedly.
Kayden Long
A number without an indication of the 7th always means dominant. So C7 is dominant 7, CM/C+ indicates a natural 7th.
It's been convention for like well over half a century
Nathan Butler
How am I làrping? I can play guitar. ..
Leo Harris
Forgot to clarify. The 9th in the chord assumes an existing dom7. So C7 and C9 are the same but the C9 has a d extension added
Matthew Morgan
Do you play any jazz?
The default is a Major triad unless otherwise indicated, you will also almost never see a CM7, but if you do it's indicating a Major 7th. C7 is a dominant and thats the case for every bit of music that you clearly don't read enough of.
Nathan Watson
Buncha dumbfucks
Luis Allen
To go further, imagine how retarded it would look to see CMMaj7. If you've never seen it, it's because everyone understands convention and the NEVER need to indicate a Major Triad in the first place because it's implied.
You know, you haven't contradicted me at all. Isaid a CM7 indicates major 7th and C7 is dominant. Please read my post again.
Mason Bell
The Maj doesn't refer to the triad. A 7th chord isn't a triad.
Gabriel Walker
I agree, anyone who thinks that Jazz composers and arrangers actually indicate the tonality of Major triads when it speaks for itself is retarded.
Jayden Morgan
this a good example of rules and theory.loose the 5th it's useless and play the triad
Wyatt Price
You think jazz composers use tria ds? Stop talking, you clearly don't understand what you are saying.
Or read the replies. The posts specify DbM9. Now, that obviously is not a triad is it. It's a chord with a 7 and a 9. Therefore if it is a major 7th it needs to be indicated, otherwise a Db9 is a dominant chord.
No, not a triad. Did you learn all your theory from 2 videos on YouTube? It goes beyond triads you know
Dominic Ward
A triad is a root, 3rd and 5th. So in the DbM7 example, losing the 5th leaves Db, F and C. Which isn't a triad.
Jeremiah Peterson
Though I agree, in many cases you wouldn't play the 5th. Still not a triad though. Youd also probably drop the root too, play an f, c and eb
Bentley Mitchell
ok
Thomas Flores
No, we're talking about a purely theoretical stand point. Not the practical application. If I'm applying this, then I would want the 1st, 3rd, 7, and whatever the highest scale degree after that is, because I like 4 voice chords on guitar. That's the case for Major and Minor Chords, For a diminished triad the defining note is the dim5th and you'd want that instead of the 3rd since that's shared with the minor chord.
Luis Thompson

Ryan Martinez
Can anyone post a few unusual chords that sound good?
Levi Brooks
No
Adrian Rogers
If you 'play' bass with a pick then you need to end yourself
Nicholas Howard
We aren't discussing theoretical points. Someone asked about what DbM9 meaned. I explained. Quite simple. I don't care how you like to voice things. It's not relevant Now, I understand people don't like to admit being wrong online. That's fine. But don't bring up irrelevant shit.. anyone who reads charts will understand you are wrong so why bother hiding it for the dumbfucks here? They either understand what C7 means or think it's a major triad, who cares? I explained to the dudethe correct reading of the chord, simple.
Kevin Wright
Why does a C7 chord have a Bb in when B is the seventh interval?
Ryan Lopez
Upper Structures are cool sounding
Ryder Gutierrez
Because C7 is a dominant chord, therefore a natural 7th becomes flattened re dominant. Basic voice leading or whatever
Ian Gomez
"Gift" is like "party": don't you dare use it as a verb in my shop.
Sell it and get a full-size.
David Diaz
A DbM9 Is a Db major triad, with a major 7th, and major 9th.
It is understood convention that "M" is not referring to the base triad's tonality, but the 7th's. You said >M9 means major chord with a natural 9th. So Db major with a 9th (eb) Which is wrong due to the context the original poster you replied to used, which was a "DbM9". DbM9 is not dominant, it's a retarded way to write DbMaj9.
You answered his question wrong and I corrected your faulty logic several times by carefully explaining that no song is going to define the Base Triad of a chord by using an "M" since major tonality is implied unless otherwise stated by using "m(-), dim(°), aug(+)"
Once more in plain English, DbM9 is referring to a Maj7, not a dominant 7th because there's no reason to believe "M" could refer to anything other than the 7th.
Eli Phillips
M9 contains a major seventh as well as a ninth: 1 M3 5 M7 9 add9 doesn't have a seventh: 1 M3 5 9
A Dominant is the 5th scale degree in any Major Scale. If you harmonize the major scale, which you do with only diatonic notes in the key, then the 5th chord of the scale has a 1, M3, P5, and a m7. This is the only chord in that harmonized Major scale with those intervals.
Grayson Wood
Cant afford strings again sam? Hows pops?
Wyatt Diaz
What would a C7 with a major seventh be? Cmaj7?
Zachary Gonzalez
Yes. C7 is dominant(minor 7th), CMaj7 refers to a Major seventh.
Austin Walker
There's literally nothing you could do to stop me from playing with a pick
Cameron Lewis
Are you high? At what point did I say it was a dominant? I repeatedly said it was a ma57th.
Stop trying to salvage this. You look like a fool. You're literally inventing things to argue against.
I already said DbM9 is a major 7th with a 9. Stop repeating me thinking you are smart.
Also, this base triad shit. What the fuck dude. The M refers to the 7th, not the 3 or 5 as minor, aug or dim does. Holy shit, have you never learned beyond 3 note chords? Or did you misunderstand when you were taught 7ths? Clearly something went wrong.
Seriously, read the posts. You're very confused.
Theoretical haha
Carson Thomas
Unless you mean a C with both a minor 7th and a Major 7th at the same time. I'm not certain how you would write that out without confusing the musician.
Justin Lewis
This
Parker Edwards
people here have trouble affording decent guitars you think they could afford a piano?
Tyler Young
New bread when
Jose Brooks
When you build chords, do you see a C7 and not think about the make-up of that chord being a C major triad with the addition of a minor 7th?
What's your methodology?
It's not suggesting that's the way you will play it, but you should be building the entirety of the chords first as an academic exercise and then trimming the proverbial fat for playing.
There is a difference between the theoretical definition of a chord and the pragmatic application, you're a dipshit if you can't recognize it.
Xavier Diaz
get your anime ready lads we're gonna have a new thread
you definitely can get away with not knowing it as long as you can write and read sheet music
Levi Ramirez
the opposite is true
Chase Baker
How do I get this shiny metallic albini guitar sound? What pedals could get me this sort of sound youtu.be/s0xCAZLE7c8
Elijah Lee
a blown amp and a tape deck for recording
Connor Wilson
>using theory >this is a G maj7
>using sheet music >this is G - B - D - F# >yeah i mean if you have notes on the keyboard about that far apart they sound good you know >yeah
Jayden Reed
Oh look, its linux brah, being a dickhead again, who's surprised
Lucas Torres
you sound like you need some dick
Chase Taylor
He uses a distortion pedal called the Harmonic Percolator extensively, but there is probably some extreme EQing involved on this album too.
Cameron Stewart
electric keyboard is cheap just like electric guitar tho
Gabriel Clark
electric guitar is not cheap because people still insist on making them from select pieces of wood for some fucking reason
one day using aluminum and fiberglass will be the norm but not today apparently. some wacko swears to god the mahogany emits a mana field that modulates the signal created by the strings and pickups, and the mana field is strongest if you use one solid piece of wood per the neck and body because using too many trees will cause the magic to cancel out.
Samuel Adams
A used learner's piano doesn't set you back that much either desu still idk if there'd be enough interest to keep it alive
Charles Hill
People give pianos away for free
Good luck moving and tuning them though
Daniel Williams
Using wood dampens the vibrations of the strings and kills your sustain. So if you use wood you get to wank on people with lesser wood for having less sustain.
Sebastian Ward
Do people hate neo soul because it’s effectively one of the hardest genres to play?
Lucas Davis
no, the opposite actually, we are tired of seeing no talent hacks get their dicks sucked for slapping their strings with their right hand and lightly finger picking octaves up and down a hollow body
Ian Smith
Isn't it just Jazz for millennials and zoomers? It's on the same technical level as prog metal but can easily dip down to easy as hell, like prog metal (djent)
