Kaka, because that guarantees bestest of toans and resonance

nickel is softer so it sounds better imho. stainless steel frets add too much harshness to the attack

Tortex 1 mm & 1.14 mm, think i might go a bit thinner though

I think stainless frets and stainless strings are the most logical combination. If you go nickel strings and nickel frets the unwound strings are still steel and are going to wear the nickel frets out quickly.
Yeah, stainless+stainless is gonna be bright. It's almost as if you have a tone knob, a treble knob, pot replacements and possibly an EQ pedal to deal with that if you don't like it.
I think a guitar should be set up with mechanical function prioritized over tone since tone can be altered in so many ways.

Usually e minor (downtuned to c#) though i would like to expand out of pentantoni shreddin eventually

back in the 90s i was in a very famous teeeeeeeeeeeeveeeeeeeee show

What tremolos have the smoothest feel with the least resistance? I've found I get a much sweeter vibrato out of a tremolo with a very smooth feel and light resistance.

floyd (set up correctly)
chet atkins bigsby

>floyd (set up correctly)
Every Floyd I've ever played in a store had a lot of resistance; more than a typical Strat or Bigsby.

Big Stubby snorts loudly in your direction.

so funnay reddit

strat are like peak resistance though. also if you cant flutter on a floyd then its set up wrong. my floyd is smooth enough that i can vibrato with just my ring finger

Those arent mineral streaks. Thats called pecking. Fucking retard

Yeah floyd is superior but kahler is better for limpwristed faggots like you.

A typical Bigsby has way more resistance than a Strat in terms of how much force you need to lower the note X cents.

Bigbsy is not used for extreme pitch shifting. Its a vibrato

lmao wrong

That resistance comes into play when you're trying to produce a sweet, wide vibrato.

There are a lot of extraneous noises when you play a guitar that won't be picked up in a recording (and won't be heard on stage with a loud amp).

Why not use a locking strap instead of buying straplocks? Sure you don't get to use whatever crazy strap you want, but they have 'em in a variety of materials now.

Sounds like the neck is twisted or not seated right. If its a bolt on, take the neck off and reseat it, otherwise try adjusting the truss rod

Detune to relieve tension ,then raise the thumbscrew on your tuneomatic bridge on the bass side. Then retune.

Is an AMD Ryzen nice enough to record guitar?

yeah, seeing as youre using an AMD i recommend naming the album Housefire

all i have right now is like a $100 15W Blackstar practice amp
I plan on joining a band next year after I move to either Austin or Chicago
How loud of an amp do I need to be able to play small venues and practice with a band?
I'd like to know if I need to start saving up for an $1000 amp now or if I can get by with a $250-400 one

depends if youre doing tube or digital

digital, probs
having a tube amp might be nice to try out, but i'm pretty happy with the sound I have atm with all my pedals and shit + clean digital
i'm kinda new to this, but 90% of the guitarists I like and look up to just use like a fender twin reverb or some similar kind of fender on albums

I will name it samboland: Can't escape
It's a concept album about being some very poor sod that can't get out of poverty because big corporations and rich countries conspire to keep him poor no matter how much effort he puts

I use a mustang ll i picked up 10 years ago and it is plenty loud for me, you definitely dont need to break the bank. But it depends on the venue. At a dive bar, mine is enough, but if it were somewhere with bad acoustics or a high ceiling it may be lacking.

Don't forget to add an actual Samba song, or at least a section in a song

Maple vs Ebony fretboard?

I just got a new guitar and it looks okay to me with no major defects but just some tiny marks at edges of neck and neck joint. I took a bunch of pictures, can anyone tell me if there is anything glaringly bad about this?

I ran my hand up and down the neck fast and could barely feel the frets, just the tiniest amount.

Is there anything I should do next or check for/adjust? (Something about action or a note dying out?)

I appreciate any help.

what guitar is that?

Ebony is goat

>bleu
Almost as pleb as well-done. No wonder you don't own a Gibson, the only guitar that's good enough.
Medium rare or go home. Gibson or go home.

Why? Which is better in terms of feel?

A lot of those marks look like mineral content in the wood. The one where the body is bolted to the neck almost looks like someone took the neck off once and fucked it up.

Also it seems you bought a mexican fender which are known for having wonky necks. They rush production more than fender USA so you're more likely you got a neck that was sensitive to humidity. If you keep it in a humidified case the fret sprout will go away.

Well its personal pref, but my IMO ebony feels best.

Welcome to the club. That's a great looking Tele. I love my two G&Ls - unbeatable quality for the price, imo.

It’s not something to return about for a mexi strat is it? Idk how bad that is or if it peels more?

Looks.

>Tonewood

Return it, chaco tried to pry the neck out.
>the state of that fretwork
Thanks for reminding me why I sold my MIM for an MIA even though I had only been playing for a week at the time.

Never been happier with a bad financial decision like that.

if wood affects tone it's not consistent
you can't say "this sounds like mahogany"
this is made obvious by gibson les pauls. they are made of 100% mahogany and people still find dramatic differences between the tone of otherwise identical guitars, with some being bright and twangy even.

Nothing to worry of, its just a small paint chip

If you bought that new I would return it immediately and buy an American made one next time

Should've gotten one Made in America lel.

Not buying an MIA so it’s either this or return but this could keep happening.
Is this really that bad?
I have no fucking idea.

Yeah I thought I’m probably gonna do more damage than that anyway but now I don’t know.


Are the frets that awful for a beginner? Can’t I just file them a tiny amount myself anyway?
Is that tiny chip a big deal?

Yeah it’s obviously not as good as MIA but it’s okay to learn on for atleast a year right? I’m worried now and being memed.

I have no idea of the frets. With a file or sanding block you can usually work it out yourself or have it setup by someone to do it.

Don't listen to these fucking idiots. If it's not made in America or a Gibson it's shit to them. How does it feel to you? Keep in mind that all new guitars need a setup before they reach their full playability. That'll run you about $50. Just do your homework and bring it to a trustworthy, experienced tech.

Yes, it is that bad. It looks like a used guitar that has been repaired. If you don't return it ask for a discount. If you don't get one, return it, and start bringing a flashlight and a magnifying glass when you buy a new guitar so you can look for fuck ups.

And every MIM I owned had an unstable neck that would give me horrible fret buzz one day and then literally the next sound clean and clear so yes I would buy an MIA if you're dead set on a fender. Only time and weather will tell you if it has that problem, but higher end guitars usually don't and multi-piece necks found on asian guitars never do by design.

Return it and get a Classic Vibe. Then get a MIA in the future. MIM is for poorfags who'll never be able to afford a decent guitar in their lives.

mexican fenders aren't even as good as korean guitars. what did you expect? really?
average IQ of south korea; 106
average IQ of mexico: 88

sell that piece of shit and get a PRS SE

You could also consider an MIJ. You can buy brand new ones for $200 more more straight from Japan that are really good quality. Used ones are even cheaper and better built than MIM

Get rid of that hunk of shit ASAP.

You paid full price for a brand new guitar that has a huge paint chip and frets sticking out of the neck.

Return it and pay more attention next time.

This probably gets asked often.
But what is good 7 string to buy on sub 400e price range?

What's the difference between a normal guitar, a San Dimas guitar and a Dinky Guitar? Sorry if it's a stupid question.

Hello. Retard here. I have tuned my guitar to Open A (EAEAC#E I would have thought this was open A minor but whatever) to play slide songs. I saw someone explain that Open G is the same as Open A but tuned down a whole step (which would make sense). So by this logic, if I was to put a capo on the second fret, would my guitar now be in open G tuning?

>normal guitar
it's just a guitar
>san dimas guitar
blessed by saint dumbass
>dinky guitar
for people with small dicks

'Normal guitar' is a pretty loose/generic term, so if you mean just regular Strat than the difference between these 3 is minor. Slightly different heel joints and body shape at the best but all pretty similar

Aside from the small paint chip which I will absolutely do worse, I intend only to learn on this really, is it that bad for this and the frets so bad that I won’t be able to learn?

I can push for a discount if you think it’s possible.
I’ll just buy a MIA later on or something.

Feels fine, I can feel the frets ever so slightly like almost not there at all so I don’t understand why they are so bad and store said they did a play test before shipping.

What makes it look used? I’m not worried about the paint chip really.

I can push for a discount but don’t really want to return.

I don’t expect anything amazing at all but just does it look good enough to learn on?

Sorry about this but I really can’t see what the issue is since I don’t know what I’m looking at.

I can just get frets like that with any squier/mim though?

Wait no I meant the other way around. Can I tune to Open G and then capo the 2nd fret to get Open A?
Told you I was retarded

What are the differences between a Strat and a San Dimas? I googled it and found out that a dinky body is just a smaller (7/8) strat body.

No idea really. They're all Strat copies, all that really changes is the neck shape/fret size and heel joint. Just read up on it

If you wanted a total piece of shit just good enough to learn on you should have bought a squire for less than half of what that costed.

Player strats are for people who can't afford American strats. Squire strats are for people who don't want to buy an American strat yet.

You cannot fuck it up lol. Its very easy to deal with

professional guitarist

Squire strats are $200 used.

$650 will buy you a PRS SE which is better made than any MIM

Yea sure, if you like PRS

Who is the greatest guitarist in this general and why is it me?

No, they are actually better made than MIM fenders. They're arguably some of the best guitars at that price point.

3 piece maple necks take the artistry out of making a stable neck that won't do this , modern tilted headstocks eliminate string tree related tuning issues while maintaining an adequate break angle and strength, the body design faciltiates much better upper fret access whether you play with classical or contemporary technique, their vibrato arms are a slight upgrade from a standard 6 screw strat, and they make some of the few humbuckers that sound good (p90-ish) split.

Because you actually practice instead of shitposting about Gibsons and Zambos

This is probably a bad place to ask but I don't use Yea Forums. Bought a harmonica because it seems like a coll instrument. Any good resources you guys know of to learn to play it? Already figured out that blowing in and out goes up a scale.. but cant seem to get the hang of anything else

Kaka infused

I really do, I will upload it soon-ish, but I really would like someone to tell me how to go from pentatonic noodler to fusion player that actually knows what he does

You have to find another guitarist and do the fusion dance.

Give me something to practice on guitar. If not ill just practice singing today.

Smoke on the water

am the mim strat guy with the frets you guys said were shit
how much discount can I push for and how irate do I need to be?

Not sure if I’m supposed to just complain and say I want a discount or ask what can be done about it.

At least $100 imo or a free setup that fixes the issues.

Ask for more kaka on the frets
If they refuse chimp out

Get a fucking job. Your own ignorance played you.

Do this:
and also play the Lydian Dominant scale on non-resolving Dominant chords.

and also play the Super Locrian scale on resolving Dominant chords.

To sing or to play? And to clarify i was looking for techniques to practice not songs.

Thanks
I thought shitter frets were acceptable on these sorts of mexicans but I’m pretty sure it’s still fine for me to learn chords n shit on. So do I act outright mad about it and demand it or just see what they suggest?

I have a job as a sw engineer and not short of any money at all it’s just that I don’t even know if I like playing yet so why would I need anything better but I’m not sure why you are so mad at this. I’m not buying with the expectation of perfect.

Practice the opening riff in a guitar store

It shouldn't even be a debate. You opened the guitar, it has tons of flaws, you shouldn't even have to explain yourself or fight for compensation

My 2 biggest influences right now are Andy Timmons (listen to beautiful,strange) and Steve Lukather. WHAT GUITARISTS ARE INFLUENCING YOU ATM?

Andy has a really good tone and seems to blend rhythm/lead really well. Definitely a solid instrumentalist. You might laugh but I've unironically influenced by Slash lately. He's actually improved a fuck ton in the past few years with his solo group, just look up some live clips he's really gotten better than the 80s/90s imo

Dean deleo

As an engineer you shpuld have known better then. Use the opportunity to learnhow to maintain and repair guitars or return and get an american pro strat and never have to mess with it. Pic rel is my modded sauier and american pro. Both play great difference isone came like tbat out of the case and the other i had to spend 2.5x its msrp to get it playing

Attached: 20190708_120752.jpg (4160x3120, 3.58M)

Slash huh. That is weird. Strange how people improve after they quit heroin lol.
Whats he play?

Elite or bust

Yeah and his chord library will make anyone jealous. Andy timmons is defintely one of the greatest.

I dont need s1 system and honestly why would i want fake noiseless single coils? American pro is a perfect combo of tradition and modernity. Narrow tall frets also. As much as i wanted to justify spending 500 more bucks i couldnt find something the elite offered for me that the american pro didnt do better.

I have an american pro just like yours and im this guy

Yeah I’m just a total beginner so I’m not sure if it’s bad pics which may be deceiving or I’m missing something because from each fret I just looked over closely, there is not one sticking out past the fretboard IRL? Either way I’m autistic and I just want to learn at this point instead of trying to pick a guitar so I’ll send an email and see what they suggest and return if needed.

Once I’ve learned how to play some I will be buying MIA Pro or Elite for certain, it’s just that I’m hesitant that I may not even enjoy playing and just thought I wanted to play guitar once the charm wears off so this mexican is just for initial stages but I won’t be putting money into this one at all and I see why you’re giving me the advice because it does make sense.

I don't get why people hate on Slash. He's always come across to me as a competent guitarist who plays parts that are melodic and fit well in the song.

Your american pro cant be 10 years old it came out 2017-2018. I think you mean american standard retard. Or are you saying you have a standard and a american pro? Anyways post pics

It probably just needs a filing. Rounding your fretboard is also an option it made my squiers neck 2x more comfy.

Yes you described him perfectly. Problem is normies hype him up more because they know the words to paradise city. The kirk hammet of hard rock.overrated but not bad by any means.

What brands other than PRS have cool inlays?
Loving the bird aesthetics, but they don't have a bolt-on hardtail.

Isnt it supposed to say made in the usa on the front of the headstock?

>bolt on hardtail
What the fuck is wrong with you. I think the bass may be a better suit for you.

You are a retard. The elite has a compound radius neck and fretboard that is infinitely better than the 9.5 on the American Pro, it has the modern block saddles instead of the vintage saddles which are much better for palm muting, it has a superior heel joint which is better for accessing the higher frets, it has locking tuners which makes it easier and much faster to change strings and at last it has the noiseless pickups which are objectively better than traditional single coils, no one wants to hear a hum whenever they are on the 1st, 3rd or the 5th position, which is why humbuckers were created and instantly became more popular than the singles.
>inb4 noiseless pups don't sound good
Yes they do, if you don't like the gen 4 ones that come with the elite you can change them with the vintage noiseless ones or the hot noiseless ones both of which sound fantastic.
>inb4 they reeeeaaaaaaaalllllyyyy don't sound good
Is that why the two greatest strat players alive (Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck) use them?

The Elite is the perfect combo of tradition and modernity, not the Pro. It sounds traditional but has all the perks of a modern guitar and all its flaws fixed.

and it has the stamp in the metal at the rear base of the neck saying Corona California

No the elite is a modsrn strat. You just listed all the modern appointments and im not some retard that buys a strat for metal so i dont care about plam mutes on my strat. I have muh emgz in muh superstrat for that. Imo the elite is more for fusion players. And im going to cover my lack of compound radius soon with a charvel. And my hss strat only has 2 positions with noise and even then not really just in theory.

American Pro is much more true Strat. The Elite is a meme and does not sound or play like a Strat should. Its almost like an Ibanez

HELL YEAH MIA STRATBOIZ RISE UP

Oh so you agree that Ibanez are superior to Fenders.

I liked this recent vid he did:

He is overrated but some of his ideas are cool and its clear he has a passion for stuff

You said the better Fender model is more like an Ibanez.

No one cares

I was not implying its 'better' at any point. I said its 'like' an Ibanez, which isn't a good thing. Please learn to read

this sucks youtu.be/Veqi45mtTdg

Holy shit youre not this stupid are you to think that means ibanez is better? For strat purists its the less desirable one.

>Can’t I just file them a tiny amount myself anyway?
Go ahead and try, it's a good way to learn that filing frets without the right tools is a waste of time, and will cost you the same as taking it somewhere, so someone with the right tools can try to repair what you did.
You can go watch videos on fret dressing and shaping, and figure out where to buy the right tools, while you're waiting for a local shop to do it.

Looks great all these other retards will tell you you should've gotten a MiA but you most likely won't be able to make use of it as a beginner to justify the price. So practice with it trust me its going to last you more than a year and if push comes to shove just drop some new pickups in it.
