For me, it's the 1956 Les Paul Custom.
For me, it's Ibanez S series.
Looks a bit like the guitar old Frippy plays
should be called Ibanez cumrag series instead.
Quick question: did jcum really mount a fender neck on a squier body?
first for acoustic
Anyone got pics of that?
Not his worst move if his squier has a shit neck
For me, it's this custom made Jackson.
Most beautiful guitar I have ever seen In my life.
Who ever said that? And can you not read?
Fuck off, Sambo, you downgraded a shitplank tele copy
I'm talking about the "MIA" strat.
After he swapped necks with his shitcaster. So now he has 2 mismatched guitars.
For me, it's this. Tell me why it isn't the best looking Les Paul

If I may ask, why don't you want an used guitar?
Anyway, Gretsch have some pretty dope hollow bodies in that price range, check them out if you're not a shredder.
Your amp doesn't have a built in 3 band EQ in it?
>why don't you want an used guitar
The previous owner of a used guitar has almost always came on it multiple times, I don't want someone else's former cumdumpster of a guitar for myself. NEVER buy used unless you want to eat some man's cum off of it.

Is this peg winder actually somehow objectively superior than the cheap $2 Jim Dunlop ones? Or is it just overpriced garbage?
just delay, reverb, and overdrive for me.
I've got a couple other effects, but I never end up using them
Ordered this for 85 smackeroos.

what do if I just wanna be in a band and get told to learn bass but I also want to learn guitar for my own enjoyment?
Unpopular opinion, but explorers should not have floyds and should not play leads. Just looks plain wrong on an instrument like that
no love for phaser
Good choice, man. You managed not to get memed. First guitar?
Silliest shit I've read all day and I've been here all day.
phaser is great
love the old small stone I borrowed
what does it do?
No I just don't have the money to be buying an expensive one and I screw around with garage rock so sounding professional isn't a concern.
Been playing for maybe 2 years now and since my old guitar was a half broken 12 year old fender squier anything's a step up.
What every rock tool does.
Your mom.
I think you may learn that getting a job would have been best
it's a phaser called "small stone", come on dude
I want to play shitty guitar rock shittily in my room. Why would I spend more than 85 bucks to do that out the gate? If I want better equipment I'll work up to it. For now I think this will get the job done.
>Fender Squier
All strats are fenders, prove me wrong.
wait what's your point?
>explorers should not have floyds and should not play leads.
Nobody tell him the lead guitarist for Skynyrd played an explorer.
I've got a phase 90, and it sounds great, but I just haven't found any decent application for it. Outside of covering Van Halen or Rush, of course
You're not wrong, but the big concern is getting a guitar that fights you, because it's set up wrong, or won't stay in tune, or can't be tuned correctly, which will make you lose interest. Kind of dumb to try and learn to bend strings if you have shitty, rough frets, or there's so much fret buzz you can't hear the note.
At the very least, watch some vids on setting up a guitar, and know how to tweak it, if you need to.
jackson should stick to their dinky bodies.
so you are implying a squier is much worse than that $70 amazon deal.
brofist i hate squier aswell
I already got a Strat (copy) but a Telecaster looks promising, what do you say?
buy one with an ash body (northern / southern) or bust
I don't think you understand the monstrosity that was my old guitar. It was a beginner pack fender squier that my older brother got when he was 7 years old that sat in the garage for over a decade until I decided to pick it up. At that point it was missing the high e, the strings were dull as shit, the bridge was raised from string tension so the intonation was all fucked, it went out of tune constantly and even when it was in tune it sounded pretty fucked. I've dealt with shit.
As long as this guitar isn't a total mess I'll be happy.
It was a broken piece of shit. If it were new it wouldn't have been terrible. The amp was shit though.
convince me whether I should pull trigger or not for my first amp to be a roland micro cube gx
I play metal and hard rock
The Artisan is one of the ugliest LPs Gibson ever made, in the Norlin era. That 3-piece top is laughably bad, too, the whole point of a figured maple top is bookmatching it.
Did you miss the part where I said "You're not wrong"? I'm just saying, it should be fine, if you put a little sweat into setting it up.
Oh true yeah. I'll probably switch out the strings if they're too shit and get a new amp when I have more money, the other stuff I'm too newby to get into yet but I might look into it when I get dissatisfied. What strings are best for durability and a heavy sound that doesn't doesn't like mud?
so you are jumping from begginer pack to another begginer pack ?
bro set up your priorities straight
Ok so what's the best budget super strat bros?
Broken beginner pack to beginner pack*
I want something that works and has potential to be improved. That's it.
A job fits that criteria
Okay can I come work for you?
New ones, lol. Strings are strings, for what your goals are. Wipe em down after every session, replace them more than once a year. :) Stick with the name brands, and look for sales.
Sorry but your moms filling the job positions available atm.

Could anyone give me a hand figuring out the guitar tabs for this 8 second clip? It's from a Chelsea Wolfe song and it's driving me fucking nuts.
vocaroo.com
I have what I hope is an easy theory question. In genres like post-punk, where the bassline does its own thing and doesn't just follow the guitar work, how do they make sure that the parts sound good together and don't clash? Like in a Joy Division song, what makes it so that the bassline and the guitar sound pleasing together? It's more than just being in the same key, right?
Root notes in unison.
Learn kakapicking
But on a song like Digital, the bass is just 3 notes over and over again. Isn't the guitar much more complex than that?
joy division were known for farting diarrhea onto their fretboards

Maybe if you weren't a Sambo we'd help you
Jeuss Christ, dude. Joy Division didn't have a fucking clue what they were doing, they just used their ears. If you want to study the relationship of multiple "voices" that's called counterpoint. But none of those bands had any clue about that shit.
So why are you asking questions here, then?
as if any of you even know the answer
Ask stupid questions, get stupid answers. I don't know what to tell you.

As if a Sambo could afford the answer
Le play stupid games epic quote for things i dont like

Skynyrd sucks dick. You're making his point for him.
I'm in my 30s, retard. All of the people giving you stupid answers are old guys because we're sick answering the same stupid questions over and over and over again.
It's called creativity, and it's not something you can just learn by watching YouTube or having someone handhold you through instructions, like practicing arpeggios. Some people have it, some don't. The brain is a muscle, start training it. Maybe you will, maybe you won't. Start by doing what those guys did, and break out of the "metal" box, and start studying things like jazz, classical, flamenco, funk, R&B, etc. Expand your palette. Expand your brain.
show me one (1) person asking the same question as me
All the sambos
which mini amp has the longest battery life? micro cube claims 20 hours
...
Learn what harmony is, and what things like counterpoint are. Or do what they did, and just try shit until something sounds good. With them, you're looking at probably thousands of hours of practicing and experimenting and trying shit until something sounded good, I don't recall reading that any of the JD guys were trained in music theory, unless they started studying later on.
A lot of stuff like that, you can stumble onto, without knowing why it works. Most of punk is just letting fly, and if it sounds cool, we'll keep it. You're way overthinking this. Just play shit, and remember the stuff that sounds good, and tear it down later to figure out what makes it tick.
This fag
I was the first to ever ask though, gaylords
It's better than farting on snare drums.
why are you all obsessed with poop?
Binding on a strat just looks bad. It makes it look like a Ibanez. It's like you took random Les Paul elements and slapped them onto a bog standard Strat.
You really think you're the first person to ever ask that question?
yes until proven otherwise

Thank you. Does it include busking?

I'm gasing for one of these but I don't know if I want the HSS, HSH or HH.

It's shitty it's tied to color. SSL-6 aren't bad by any stretch but HSS is just a weird config IMO.
>"Akshuly there's 2 pedo trannys and one has another waifu"
So it's 20% odds the problem solves itself instead of 40%
I like the Epiphone Les Paul Custom , she's one sexy lady.
>HSS is just a weird config
Then why is it the most popular variant of a real strat (SSS)?
how's it tied to colors?
Pink and Gray are HSS, Orange and Puke are HSH. The more expensive DK24s like the red are HH, though. You couldn't get an HSH Pink for example.
>like the shape of the les paul
>know that gibsons are ass
are reverends good? I notice some have the les paul body.

Why yes, I am a guitar sommelier and because of that I naturally play Gibsons exclusively. How could you tell?

I just got it for $1075.
I hope you didn't want it badly enough to pay $175 extra lol
why not spend it on the sex change?
bassed
Because it's not a gibson.
Nice guitar user
hello friends. im a leftycuck beginner and i wanna get an electric because while i do like acoustic, i also wanna groove man
should i get a ~$200 squier, $260 yamaha 112j, or stretch my budget and get a used MIM fender strat cause ive heard people say that
thanks in advance for reading my friends
RickenbackerLitera
Flip a coin
Those strings look like they’re really hard to fret
ESP
they are
and the action is stupid high
fuck
Only a gibson is good enough
t. anime girl
superstrats like jacksons have wider, flatter fretboards that will feel more like your acoustic. so do gibsons.
the secret of superstrats is they're strat shaped les pauls with floyd roses.
Do you guys think a 90W amp is enough to play my bass with a band and to play small gigs at bars?
I'd go for the MIM. You won't regret starting out with a nicer guitar. Besides, even if you change your mind and don't like it or decide electric isn't your thing, it's easier to sell than a Squier or Yamaha and will hold more of its value.
Which guitar do I play if I want to be an anime boy instead?
Gibson.
Dean.
thanx user, i was kinda leaning towards that option. also kinda dumb but would it be a bad idea to buy online and ship something kinda far away(ie like half of burgerland) because lefties aint easy to come by often.
deans are for broke beaners tho
Still Gibson.
>Guitarist with the Les Paul is also the tallest and least gay looking
Absolute chad.
>even the bassist has a Gibby
anime is so based and redpilled
For me too. But I will never own it. Will probably buy the 40th anniv series this year to compensate.
Overrated by who? No one rates Gibsons. Literally everyone shits on them even though a very small minority has ever touched one in their lives.
It's mostly just third worlders and and a handful of s/o/yboys. If you could see the flags on most of the posts here you'd have a much better understanding of why their countries are such shit, the character of a people is what makes places the way they are.
Just wondering what is the reason not to buy an MIA used by default? Surely if you do sell, you’ll make about the same or less loss.
Is it just too much for a first really?
>tranny
>beautiful, desirable
i believed this based off photos and videos. then i saw one without makeup and ideal camera angles. they look like fucking dudes, dude.
/gg/ can't afford MIAs so they can't vouch for them. the few here who can afford an MIA strat buy gibsons and ESPs apparently because weebs make the big bucks (ever seen their figure collections? ever seen the prices on those dolls?)
I JUST WANT A HH DK24 2PT IN SATIN BLACK
>he thinks Gibsons, ESPs, and $300 anime dolls are expensive
yeesh, is something dusty in here? you might want to get a job so you can afford to bathe.
Compressor: It makes pinch harmonics and tapping audible.
But those weird switching options though
the best options?
HH gives you every tone and is better than HSH by miles
the secret of HH guitars is using two volume knobs to blend them in the middle position
If your shred machine only has one volume knob get a concentric pot ASAP
Does is even have coilsplit positions? From what I've seen it's some novelty stuff like a single hunbucker in parallel or series and using both humbuckers as four singlecoils
series/parallel switching > coil splitting
the only thing that still makes passives worth using

This is the best hh wiring. Could do with one less middle and a removal of the push pull in favour of a 5 way.

Have you ever played a 1k+ Gibson? Be honest now.

Absolutely. I actually own a collection of vintage and modern Gibsons, mostly Les Pauls. Next is the part where you shit all over yourself trying to get me to post them. I won't.

>not everyone here is a poorfa/gg/ failed musician/bedroom hobbyist
>Anonymity much like freedom requires discipline
I'm a wealthy professional musician and you'll never know who I am because I only come here to laugh.
do amps usually come with a quarter inch cable and wall plug or do I have to buy them separately? pretty sure I gotta get the quarter inch right
Asking this as someone looking for a first guitar which will be a mim probably.
What’s the deal with offsets like duosonic/mustang/mustang 90/mustang basses? Are they a lesser instrument than all of the other types of guitar? I don’t see much about them.
shhhh. dont tell zoomers they have to work hard at their craft. let them experience failure like their parents never taught them.

HSS. Neck humbuckers are ass.
literally every HH guitar including a les paul has a neck humbucker and it sounds amazing
no he's right neck humbuckys are shit
But she's just Gibson's even-more-retarded little sister.
