It’s not exactly cheap to get. Gibson, thinness is a plus as it’s less wood, cheaper to produce, and still sounds great. You can get an SG modern if you want a fancy one for $3k. Or you can get a SG special for $1400 if you want an affordable one.

Nobody here can show a better guitar.

Also it was named after his dead child hood friend
The ML was created by Dean Zelinsky in 1977 for improved sustain and tone. It was created with the Dean concept of spreading the mass of the body over a large area. Higher string angles and string length, due to the size of the headstock, contribute to the overall resonance. Dean has made the ML available to other manufacturers[which?] by licensing arrangement.

The ML was named posthumously for the initials of Zelinsky's friend Matthew Lynn, who had died of cancer.[1]

The Stratocaster improves on the Telecaster in literally every way. There is no reason to buy a telecaster that isn’t for pure visual style or made up snake oil about muh tone.

You could have posted a thin line telecaster and been closer but you didn’t.

I would unironically raté telecaster as 5th or 6th best guitar available however.

I'll admit that if you get one good gibson, it's great, but for the most part they make terrible guitars and the SG is among their worst. Hence why the SG would be good if ESP made it - they necessarily modify the design to avoid getting sued.

ESP is one of the few companies that equals gibson in peak quality, but without the massive quality valleys every other guiter.

The ESP Viper looks like shit, don't be ridiculous

You're such a loser, I can find you pictures of all those Gibson players in the picture with a strat too but that doesn't mean that their primary or signature guitar wasn't a Gibson. Hendrix was a strat player, he's known for playing strats, he made the strat even more popular than it already was, Clapton started playing strats exclusively after watching him.

Final verdict: acceptBle If poor and exclusively play metal otherwise #yikes

Looks like if Peavey tried to make an LTD Viper

good thing daddy gibson is coming for them next. Fuck every single guitar company stealing their designs, I can't wait until there's nothing but gibson and fender left, the only real companies.

K, SG costs less than a Les Paul because it uses less wood. That’s why it’s the best guitar and I said ‘affordable To produce’ you literally pay less money for less wood instead of paying more money for more unnecessary wood.

Keeping in mind that wood is snake oil and serves to purpose other than positioning the strings sonwjwre comfortable for your arms to play them.

I've honestly never seen a more beautiful guitar than this bros. I mean it's just absolutely perfect in every way

Do some research fag I’m not going to explain guitar manufacturing to you.

Buy dean if you want but you’re buying. Cheap BS from a copy cat company.

They tried that once. They failed. PRS owned them with righteous fury.
>you're only "protecting" a "trademark" decades after it became a cultural standard?
>and show me how exactly someone could mistake this for a les paul when it says PRS and has bird inlays on it

They already sued ESP and ibanez. But instead of getting mad at the principle they said "oh, sorry, we had no idea it was a big deal to you fussy white people" and changed the designs without issue and now you have this.

Are you larping as a boomer or are you genuinely ignorant and prone to making up a bullshit world where the favorite guitar company of your favorite barely-talented rock star is the only good one

Fender, Gibson, ESP, Ibanez, Schecter, PRS, Music Man, Mayones, Strandberg, and Kiesel all make great guitars and brand fanboys are mostly poorfags who can't afford more than one instrument

Why? Could it be all your WMC shit planks all felt unsatisfying and had issues?

You literally only need ONE guitar unless you are professionally playing. Otherwise you’re just wasting an absurd amount of money.

You are literally Rebbit right now. This isn’t NATURE or JAMA it’s Yea Forums. I don’t need a source. Look up WMC and see why the guitars are cheap.
Rebbit fag.

How about you prove me wrong if you’re so offended

You don't have to like it, and that's ok. Different people can like different things.

And Clapton played an SG before switching to strats permanently. You are retarded. mate. Just because a guy played a certain guitar at some point doesn't mean that it's their PRIMARY or PREFERRED guitar. I will try to explain it to you like the baby you are, strats and Les Pauls are very different sounding guitars, to play certain songs an artist might choose a different guitar depending on the song but that doesn't mean that it's their -- again -- PRIMARY or PREFERRED guitar. Jimmy Page used to use a Telecaster to record most of Led Zeppelin's songs btw.

Stfu already youre not funny or clever or trolling anyone. If you knew anything about guitars you would know that you need 12 different guitars because you need a floyd rose and one for each tuning.

>offset moves the upper cutaway further towards the nut defeating the purpose, looks like a cheap knock off design.

It’s worse bro, accept it. It’s not like your an ESP shill. Make an argument don’t just post your shit plank and say it’s best.

What's it like being poor?

I have a WMC shitplank for .13s in C standard. I am of the opinion that they're playable guitars but with nasty finishes.
I have an American strat for cleans and classic tones.
I have a tele for TWANG.
I have an ibanez for abusing a whammy bar more than I should and practicing guitar spins.
I have a martin because acoustic.

To you I am wasting an absurd amount of money. To you, you are angry. I should be buying groceries. I should be donating to charity. I should be paying your credit card bills. Only a professional guitarist should spend that much on guitars, right?

To me I spent less than I spend when I wreck my R1 at the track.

Ah, this general. This guitar general, man!

It always makes me laugh seeing what can best be described as "non-musicians" concern themselves with when it comes to music and musical instruments. All those irrelevant/trivial details they seem to focus their thoughts and energy onto that have absolutely nothing to do with playing, writing, or recording music. I've seen it all! Arguments on which brand is better, what build is better, which fretboard is superior! Lmao, arguing if tonewood is real or not! The secrets contained in Paul Reed Smiths vault! China vs. Indonesia! It never gets old.

The truth is the best guitar is the one that comes closest to the sound you dream about, the one you hear in your head. It might be a Gibson, it might be a Fender, it might be a red plastic Airline they sold at Montgomery Ward in the 60s for beginners! The best guitar is the one that makes you want to pick it up and play some music. The best guitar is the one that takes you down that road and helps you discover who you are as a musician and your unique voice that distinguishes you as an artist. No one, and I mean NO ONE, can decide what that is except for you. The best who'll ever do it learned by doing, not by being some sad passive spectator/commentator who got bogged down with the sort of minutia all the "non-musicians" who post in this general seem to be constantly obsessing over. I ask you all: why? From my perspective it seems this general serves no useful purpose.

It all boils down to you and the music you want to make, any other opinion or conversation not concerning the dream you're chasing is pointless. Discussing the myriad of peripheral subjects that have nothing to do with that pursuit gets you ...where exactly? Accomplishes what? I've never understood it and I probably never will.

Me? I'm a guitar player, I play guitar. Believe me, you wouldn't understand.

/gg/ is full of people so poor they think a $2000 guitar is expensive instead of a regular price for a quality instrument.

I bet they keep the volume ant tone at 10 too

It’s hard to find out but you have to ignore endorsements.

youtu.be/-UYPpOYXYWc

Kirk Hammet has 4 signature ESP guitars but uses a Gibson to record. I’m shocked.

Eric Johnson has 3 signature Strats but uses a 56 Strat, 335, SG, and Firebird to record. He likes vintage guitars and doesn’t care for nu-fender (or post Mccarty Gibson)except for the pay check.

Clapton probably owned and used an SG Les Paul and Strat and used them all as gibson and fender do have different sounds then fender paid him to use a fender and he did.

Many Such Cases! Strats aren’t conducive to modern tone.

Im already sure he does. I bet his big move is to switch to the neck pickup and roll the tone to 0 and says he has jazz tone. Thats the only time he touches his knobs

That's only good for those radio sounding cleans, for good cleans you need an amp with enough headroom to take the full output of your pickups without breaking up. Usually means using less hot pickups.

My favorite guitars are HS and HSS for this reason.

Exactly

Attached: Gilmour Les Paul.jpg (521x800, 66K)

I’ve had several WMC shitplanks and they range from pretty good to really fucking bad, and that’s at every price point.

Tele and Strats sound the same, thinking otherwise is placebo. Wammy bars are marketing gimmicks are rarely have use when playing. You can the same effects with different techniques.

Angus Young has had 3 guitars for 40 years. One was a gift. And he uses them all every night as strings break or they go out of tune.

Eric Johnson has 3 guitars, two 50s Strats, a 335, he has traded a Firebird, Les Pail, and SG on as well. He also has signature models he is required to play via contract.

Yet you need 8 guitars to wank in your basement. Sell them all and get one nice car.

Also, I track as well, where you driving at?

Mod it to your liking. Get it painted, put pickups you like better in it.

We’ll get a Viper then If you want an indoneasian cheap part SG? It’s not Better though, objectively. It’s still pretty good, by virtue of its knock off of a great design. Just needs, you know, not Chinese build quality and materials.

Ok maybe you can help me then? I've been coming to /gg/ on and off for the last few weeks and I have yet to see anything constructive or positive happening in these threads, can you (or anyone else) point out where I'm wrong? Because if this is the way it goes around here then it's just a waste of my time because I need to be in a place that helps me get better at playing, writing, recording, etc. like you said.

If that sort of thing doesn't happen here (or happens rarely) I need to toss this general in the trash where it belongs and move on because I have much more important things to be focusing on as an aspiring musician.

I'm inviting honest replies with this post, if you think I'm wrong or mistaken please explain why because I'm not seeing it.

Theres a difference between active and passive pickups dweeb.

Yes yes but let’s be real, the signal gets weak and brittle and these super hot modern pickups are just too hot for sparkley cleans. Much easier to buy vintage style pick ups, turn up the gain, and then ride the volume knob.

Noob here
when playing power chords in drop D with the root on the 6th string are you supposed to be able to accurately fret three strings and mute the other three with the same finger applying less pressure?
I find it quite hard, like I end up as to make the other string ring out as well, like I'm unintentionally barring eveything?
are you supposed to strum accurately only the three string you wanna play?

Get better pots and pickups.

Road America for me in a BMW M3 V8.

When would you actually need to do this? Asides, get an SG with a bigsby and sell them all for a Mesa or fractal or something. Functionally you’ll be just as capable, more comfortable, more versatile, with way less clutter and BS.

Why not learn in a non meme tuning first?

fuck you're right, don't worry I'll set up my recording gear in the mall next time

Ive tried that no one cares. Ok so what guitar related stuff do you want to talk about?

Are you in penn or not? That's not you nick. You posted your band before.

What state. I was asking about penn because i wanna travel sometime this year and visit other states. The south is also a place i want to go.

lol what a fag

cheap and filthy?

You that gay frenchie fag?
Cheap filthy and korean. Fuck now i want a woman like that too.

Texas. I've been to every state except hawaii and oregon touring. The south is fucking hot, and humid, but not bad. If I had to choose a state to stay and make my recording dojo in though, it would be Montana. Imagine being snowed in for days at a time with nothing to do but live cozy, make sick jams, and shitpost. Truly the dream

This is one of those quintessential American posts. Why wouldn't you go on holiday someplace worth a shit?

Nice. Im planning on skipping texas since its so close. Sierra nevadas where they meet death valley is also comfy and inspiring here in California
I thought i was the mexican.
Why are you mad though? Mystery meat and hite beer go together great.

I wasted $50 on a big muff clone (honey pot) that sucks. Why do people insist on getting their dirt from pedals instead of buying a good amp?

America is the most beautiful country in the world and has almost all biomes in it. Im a proud american i want to see my country and the people in it. Why would i want to go to some third world country and give them my dollars? Fuck you and your shit country.

I'm guessing you're an arizona brah? I lived near indio for like 4 year and fucking hated every second of it lmao. The only thing I really enjoyed was good access to shows, like I caught a double set of ETID at the The Observatory and it was sick as fuck. ETID is a perfect example of average guitarists making the most of their skillset

Why would I be mad that you'd eat garbage? I find people like you comedic. Every village needs an idiot I always say!

shidd and piss forgot you said you were in california my B

I said here in California in my post dude.

What currency do muslims use anyways?

I mean, shit, how many player you know who buy tube amps and still get their fucking dirt from pedals? Spoiler; most. My favorite is when said faggot has done this with a hybrid and only uses the clean channel (solid state power amp) lol.

Also dont be a faggot who falls for the valve meme. There are good SS amps now, and some are legendary.

bombs and clocks. jk depends on the country, and you'd be surprised at the strength of their currency sometimes. When I was in Jordan their shit was stronger than the dollar, made it hard to afford a gibson at their GC's

Hey sam. Hows pops?

one you couldn't afford either i imagine

I have 2 hybrid tube amps and theyre great.

>DONT YOU KNOW MOST ENGL AND DIEZEL OWNERS USE A PEDAL FOR DIRT
retard

did you reply to the wrong person there chief?

I dont know if you meant to reply to me but most do indeed use an overdrive as a clean boost to tighten up the sound and make it punchier.

What did my post say? Can you show me where the bad man said your amps sucked? Or did he say there are retards who buy them because "tube" but then proceed to not employ said tubes?

Yes

You can really tell some guitarists are actually bass players. But, I get it cheif , a hybrid's tubes are in the pre amp and never come into play on the clean channel.

So they use a pedal for tweaking the already present gain. Thats nit getting your dirt from a pedal thats tweaking with a pedal. The dirts already there. Youre just modifying it.
It was an incidental anecdote you sperg.

WRONG

>being so butthurt this triggers you
>it sounds so good while being so cheap
>"b-but it's not $15,000!!"
>wood makes 10% of the sound, all you need for it to be is solid and not break if dropped

>tune it every 3 months
>no faggy abolone headstock to make up for shit playing

oh it's a squier btw

He cant even spell chief right. Hes guaranteed a retard.

I never said anything about getting dirt from their pedals so I don't exactly understand what you're sperging out about. you must think im someone else

people come here to talk about guitars when they're board because guitar is their hobby and they don't have anywhere else to talk about it. why the fuck would you come to Yea Forums to learn anything? at best it's a place to get sources so you can go to them and actually learn. i hope you don't actually take things people here say seriously. you zoomers who take Yea Forums seriously are the reason this site has been dead for years. it's for discussion and memes, not education.

Why would you comment on other people's spelling when you're missing some apostrophes there, chief?

The gain stages on your amp are op amp based, you might as well be running a Metal Zone into a power amp and you're trying to argue about people using pedals for dirt? Ok retard.

More like a tube screamer dumbass.
And yeah dude all Diezels and Dual recs and fireballs need a pedal for sirt because theure all jcm900s. Keep doubling down as a retard.

So what youre saying is you dont need to buy pedals because some amps come with them. Sounds like pedals are for poorfags.

you know poor people usually make several cheap purchases that add up over time to one expensive purchase right? you can't be this retarded

He is that retarded.

This sounds like something a village idiot would post.

It’s up there but it has flaws. You’ve already modded the instrument with new pick ups and a custom body to make it compete with a strat...

reminder if you don't have tonebird inlays you're never going to make it.

david gilmour dosen't use a metal zone

Sam confirmed. Is that what they call you in the favela the village idiot?

sick riffing
pretty hard to differentiate high gain amps
Sounds like standard 6505 tone to me, or maybe an EVH 5150III or something like that

Real tone though, right? Mic on a cab recording?

Yea my bad youre right it was a heavy metal.
Theres none of that in any of those posts.

Peavey would be my guess too. But its probably a fag with an amp sim.

rude...

kek thanks i know it's sloppy as shit. and yeah nah I was pulling a dick move, got it, it's bias amp simulating a triple rec

I was listening for that little "chhh" sound that happens when chugs cut off in all distorted amp sim tones, didn't sound like it was there.
Unless it's one of those new ones like Fortin's got out and they've gotten a lot better recently

damn dude, Bias ain't bad

is that a song or something of yours or just making stuff up?

Is that a j mascis with a fender headstock?

thoughts? thinking about picking this bad boy up on sweet waters 36 month payment plan

Attached: MS50G-large.jpg (443x750, 59K)

No, it's a 2006 AVRI with a J Mascis pickguard and a gold TOM bridge. I based it off of his white backup Jazzmaster that the signature model is based off, ended up getting the gold pickguard from one of his sigs, seeing as I was already basing my guitar off of his.

that's the raw tone too, no post-EQ or anything crazy, if you want I can try and post something not garbage. I haven't spent much time on that tone, I've got a mk2c+ one I've been trying to dial in but it's not goin as well lol

it's a little lick I fuck around with but I've never made a song out of it, I come up with the arpeggio parts at the beginning in like 2009 but just have never ever figured out where to go with it

then assume it's not modded, it's a full warmoth custom. You can either have a Fender Elite Stratocaster, in whatever color Fender offers, or have a fully custom tele with all the appointments and hardware you choose. Don't get me wrong I love strats but for someone who knows exactly what they want they should just build custom
