What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in Gibson Guitar Lessons, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on Dean, and I have over 300 confirmed litigations. I am trained in dadrock and I'm the top pentatonic blues player in the entire Guitar Center. You are nothing to me but just another poorass. I will Springsteen you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of lawyers across the USA and your patents are being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, zoomer. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your wallet. You're fucking poor, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can post embarrassing videos I later delete over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in the blues, but I have access to the entire AC/DC discography and I will use it to its full extent to powerchord your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy Authenticity™ your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the inflated pricetag, you goddamn idiot. I will noodle aimlessly all over you and you will drown in it. You're fucking poor, kiddo.

Has anyone bought a guitar off Amazon? I live in the middle of nowhere Nevada 2 hours from the nearest brick and mortar shop and want a new guitar.

I got a good offer for Fender delux reverb head but realized that it doesn't have fx loop so my question is how important is fx loop for someone who use lots of pedals like distortion,reverb and delay? please answer me

*Did your guitar arrive not horribly mangled?

Yes, the gutiar I received looked like it was a well used floor model. That's okay because it was $70 and I used it to practice guitar spins.

>I'm fine with earning minimum wage, it allows me to buy low end shit

E-II is literally ESP, but low end ESP (which is equal to high end Gibson). They changed the branding because they were coming back to nipland and diluting their brand image. ESP never sold the cheaper ESP standards in Japan.

It's like if Suhr started selling cheaper mass produced guitars overseas only and Americans started re-importing them so they could have a guitar that said "Suhr" on the headstock at half price. ESP and ESP USA are meant to be Suhr quality, E-II is meant to be Gibson quality.

a ryzen 3 is perfect for music production unless you're mixing an orchestra of virtual instruments and you want to have one reverb for each instrument.

I am yes. The non-peasant is the one who runs/owns the construction company.

Yes, I am saying that Gibson is shit.

One out of each batch might be amazing but they can't consistently deliver the quality they charge for. Do you know what I expect? Every fender I've ever bought has been amazing, singing, like a legendary les paul. Every single one. I expect that kind of consistency. Not 99 out of 100 guitars having dull, dead tone and at least one fuck up in the finish so it's destined to sit on the wall of whatever guitar store was unfortunate enough to receive it.

Just another brand thats overhyled and is overpricing just so you can say others dont have it. (They bought usa made guitars that are the exact same shit but cheaper)

i agree 100% an hss strat will give you better tones and play nicer too and gibsons sgs invented metal guitars so why be a tryhard and get anything else

>/gg/ recently found out ESPs were nice, but very expensive
>low end models cost hundreds more than the highest end fender and don't even say ESP on the headstock
>a strat costs $4000
>world class performing artists who are relevant today swear by them
>/gg/ hates ESP now

but is it that simple? i don't think so. what actually happened is gibson shill shilled ESP a bit, and then tore it down to make gibsons look like reasonably priced options, tricking /gg/ into actually liking them.

Sg's suck ass. But yes a hss strat is real good.

They both suck.
Next.

Amazon at the very least has a very good return policy, probably quicker to deal with than most elsewhere

Depending on the guitar though, thomann might even be cheaper but it'll ship from the EU. Read reviews that they're great about returns and whatnot, but shipping is gonna be longer both ways

Suhr more like Soverpriced Ustrat Hknockoffs forRetards

Ignore everything /gg/ says. Everything.

MIA Fenders are great, some of the funnest guitars to play on especially for clean tones.
ESPs and their E-II line are amazing with comfortable, fast playing necks.
The people who play Ibanez say enough about the brand already.
Every single Gibson is worth the cash. Don't let QC memes deter you, some people would complain about mild orange peel on the underside of their hand-built sportscar's spoiler and say "ferrari has declined!".
PRS isn't a snake oil company. Their instruments are as good as the pricetags imply and they and supervise the production of some of the best overseas entry level instruments currently being made.

I could go on and on. There really aren't any bad guitars except for shit like Tagima, Magaloli, cheap shit Epiphone, and Squier bullet.

With guitars you get exactly what you pay for.

7th/8th strings are distasteful, sound ugly and in 99% of the cases they're just doubling the bass so what's the point? I wish they disappeared

like if you agree

I'm probably going to buy a new Rickenbacker 4003 tomorrow for $1700
I've already tested it with the sound I'm looking for and it's absolutely perfect, but how is this for price? I've looked up online reviews and I've seen people saying it's not worth more than $1k and other people saying they paid $3k for a new 4003. Should I do it?

the bass can fuck off. bands are a played out boomer meme.

solo artists playing multiscale 8 strings are the future.

Thats priced right. Rickenbackers are good. The only thing I never liked about them is the narrow nut and neck taper which is why I prefer other brands.

help

Bands are unironically outdated. They only existed because nobody had figured out how to play an instrument more than four strings yet without resorting to a non-portable keyboard. When six strings became more common, solo artists started following suit. Now that we have 7, 8, and 9 strings you just need a guitarist and a drummer, and the guitarist should be able to sing no problem.

Also once keyboard synths go from 30lbs (current standard) to below 20 you can all kiss your asses goodbye, it's just the superior instrument.

I've never said that.

If you're using any modulation effects, i.e. delay/reverb its recommended in the vast majority of amps to have a loop for it. Fender amps without loops are best to use with overdrives to push the amp, but they're old circuits now

If you already like the sound of the Fender on its own I'd highly suggest looking at the Mesa Fillmore. Its like an even better version but with some modern features like a proper loop and also more ways to control the gain and EQ.

It's a pickup which is typically located underneath the saddle(s) and works via sensing transferred string vibration through the saddle(s) instead of magnetically. They're typically found on acoustic-electric guitars, and they typically sound not a hell of a lot like a mic'd acoustic.

Wow, you know so much about being a tranny. It's almost like you have experience with this kind of thing.

Nice.

there's like 1000 books in the repository, any particular books that are useful for a beginner guitarist? not technique books though.

I've put on 10 -52 gauge strings and I've notice my playing is suffering
I'm fucking up a lot more

If you're a science nerd, the science behind piezo is pretty interesting, you're creating sound signals by compressing crystals.

you need to develop your man hands

sell your gear and spend it on a les paul r8 or r9.

How did you know I was referring to trannies, O-Tae?

But you need knowledge and experience regarding trannies to be able to discern that from context like that. Why do you have that knowledge and experience?

Antiandrogens and estrogen only have one valid medical purpose - treating menopause - and only one recreational purpose - degrees of bodily feminization. This is common knowledge if you've ever taken a biology class. Why would someone referred to as >he need those chemicals? Unless you're buying meds for your grandma (unlikely to be covered by medicare). Unless there's a jcum is taking care of his menopausal female relative or jcum has prostate cancer meme i missed. It's common knowledge that reducing androgens and consuming estrogen makes men more effeminate, as is the case with excessive glycine max consumption, so in this case it's implied that they are bought to be used for recreational body modification such as that carried out by transvestites and other men attempting to become more effeminate.

Also, don't shitpost with my wife. Use a shit girl like Sayo or something.

Jcum confirmed for prostate cancer

I didn't even know what the fuck an anti-androgen was until I googled it for my Gibson post. You have more knowledge about trannies than I do, apparently. Dilate.

Hey. I googled it too.

But what do you google to find out about these terms in the first place? I wonder.

>great tone and clarity

>fret buzz not coming from the amp is a meme
>EMGs so not a lot of string pull

so this is why shredders always have bad tone and only play with high gain

No here is traches wood

yes
i used to repeat that on /gg/ and they would just shit on me and call me a retarded freak

Lol why tho?

it all makes so much sense now. the neck pickup leads, the gratuitous reverb and delay, the gain knobs that go up to 11.

it's the only way you can play fast without a few extra years of experience building up strong, precise hands. otherwise you stick to blues.

If your guitar changes tone that much by lowering the string, you're doing it wrong.

Oh, wait, /mu, you're just making up a fake scenario to talk shit. My bad.

no it's real

i have light strings so they're probably just hitting the frets. lots of metallic overtones.

>traches

Traches isn't a word, in any language.

No one cares

Di you also adjust your pickup, when you changed your string height?

No, you didn't. But you went ahead and shitposted anyway.

> lots of metallic overtones.

That's not what an overtone is.

It's two EMG 60s screwed all the way down into an epiphone what else is there

But you posted it anyway.

That'll do, donkey. That'll do.

Couldn't possibly be the problem. Nope.

that's not how you greentext newfag

Eh. It's common among gypsy jazz guitarists to play with 3mm+ action. But then again, most people will never be able to play gypsy jazz.
What does this even mean?

Bonnie Raitt, obviously.

Gear fags are the worst. I bet you guys watch videos and listen to podcasts on the rare occasions you practice and never actually focus.

What is the equivalent of justinguitar for piano?

Just bought a bass recently. What's the ratio of time I should be spending between practicing technique and learning a song? Right now it's about 50/50, where I try and make sure my technique is right when learning a song.

Spend 100% of time playing root notes, 0% everything else. You can do it, user.

Hell yea strats are the best guitars

>my genre is the only that’s relevant
Wrong nigger your genre sucks ass because of all the smelly no life’s and daddy issue girls that fill up your venues. Learn how to make beats like a real musician retard

This. If you're not playing neosoul on a guitar with 21 frets and a 7.25" radius, you may as well set fire to your guitar.

Dude sounds like he graduated from Rock Academy. That was cheesy af.

damn this dude can shred

I think we should all know at this point that the guitar is a fuckin fashion accessory and people just choose the one that fits their desired stage image

Like you could sound good on a strat or a superstrat with fishmans but if you're playing neo soul bring the strat, and make sure it's pastel colored, and save the superstrat for when you start playing jazz fusion because it hasn't been cool enough for metal since van halen

Mhh, tone crystals...

Only the finest tone quartz, dug up in the rain forest by heavy breasted natives and smuggled into the US in their most private of privates.

Seeing as they pick up acoustic waves created by the guitar, I guess tonewood does matter after all.

I have owned a variety of guitars with an EMG 81 in the bridge and they all sounded different, including two that were supposed to be identical.

I've been playing guitar on and off for about 10 years. I learned a little bit from a family friend, and took a few lessons when I was younger, but I've basically been stuck at a mediocre playing ability this whole time. Should I even bother trying to overwrite 10 years of bad habits, or should I just try to learn something new like bass or drums?

Just got bias fx 2 a month ago and loving every bit of it
What do you guys think about bias?

For that specific instance, yes, it does. But it doesn't mean that much when it's a magnetic pickup. Which is why most electric guitars don't have piezo pickups. Funny how that works.

It really won't be that hard to overwrite bad habits if you weren't playing consistently and you make an effort to correct them

tonewood is a real effect but it isn't so consistent you can nail down a "mahogany tone" or anything like that and due to the vast amount of genres and styles electric guitar covers and the availability of active EQ and distortion in the signal chain, you can't really nail down a good one or a bad one or be limited by the normal tone of your guitar

so you can have favorites but don't ever act like you need a specific guitar built to so and so specs out of some rare rainforest wood to sound good

everything you just said is wrong

>tonewood isn't real
poorfag cope on /gg/ has reached levels that shouldn't even be possible

if you don't believe it you're one of two things

poor, so you don't want to believe your plywood sounds different
or rich and stupid, so you want to believe an all honduras mahogany guitar will always sound sweet and warm no matter what pickups you put in it

not interested in arguing with an idiot, i was just pointing out you were one that's all

if you can't articulate your argument you don't have one.

>he's afraid of getting BTFO by the tonewood boomer

Never gonna make it

Wood actually affects tone more than the pickups, anything else is poorfags coping.

>wood doesn't affect a guitar, my $100 strat sounds just as good as any $4000 guitar

my plywood strat has a perfectly acceptable tone for noise rock!

Got a bass bit over a year ago, now my technical skill is pretty decent and I can play most songs given a little practice. Mainly play stoner rock but recently trying RHCP since the bass in those are a little more challenging, but I can still play them fairly easy.

What's the next step for me? I practice at least every 2nd day but I've been getting bored because I feel like I'm not going anywhere. Just playing the same old songs and any new songs I learn, I get them down in like 15 minutes.

Attached: muhbass.jpg (1200x453, 34K)

Play something out of your comfort zone then that's more challenging and will require you to learn new techniques.

Play with a band. Learn to work with a drummer, not a recorded song.

unless of course u count john Petrucci ernie ball guitars

its too fucking heavy

listen to random songs and improvise over them while forcing yourself to always play at least two notes simultaneously

Are you me?

digital shit

Just download a bunch and try them. Most books start with beginner stuff and get progressively harder, so you can pick whatever sounds interesting

YEEAAAAAANANANANANAAA

Only stick to the guitar if you actually like it and physically like playing it or else you'll just waste time. If lessons and habits didn't stick with you it might be best to try something else

Its fine for quiet practice but its got nothing on a real amp

When did you in your learning experience decide you were good enough to invest in a proper instrument.

How much did you spend?

NEW NEW NEW

About 2 years in but I also got a better job so it wasn't a big deal. I dropped $1400.

also I played piano for 3-4 years as a kid so I had a decent amount of theory shit behind me already
