> buy bass for £295 like 10 years ago > sell it for £400 today
I still need a bass for when the funk takes over and I need to slap the shit out of something but I don't need anything fancy. What are some brands for bass that are undervalued on the used market?
Those are super neat, I've come so close to buying one a few times. How do you like it?
Jack Kelly
I played one in a shop. Throw some chorus on it and you get effortless Cure/New Order. Didn't try any country basslines though.
Luis Murphy
Is Kemper the only serious alternative to amps? They're fucking expensive
Ryan Parker
no
Brandon Ward
Best sounding digital solution but also the least flexible in a way, because the simulation is just a slice of the original amp's range. Like it's literally just one setting of the original amp and if you adjust something, it's just a guess.
Bentley Turner
what should I use to clean my strings? the tip of my fingers are fucking dirty after playing for a while
Jaxson Brooks
Tell me about Jcum. Why does he play the Dean?
Caleb Martin
he is a tiny guy from mexico
no one cared who he was until he puts on the tiny sneakers
Daniel Russell
Wash your hands before playing so you don't get kaka on them. Change strings more often and clean the kaka off the fretboard every once in a while and also clean the kaka off the fretwire for best results.
Juan Richardson
That sounds really neat. I hope one ventures into one of my local shops. I'd like to play before I buy.
Kayden Stewart
>turn to rust before even leaving the package How do they get away with it?
Speaking of small, I was in the music store yesterday and I noticed those mode four cabs like he has are quite a bit smaller than regular Marshall cabs. I just looked it up and it turns out they're only about 30 inches tall. So two stacked together would add up to 60 inches or 5 feet.
Now look at this pic Jcum Posted. Lets be generous and say the casters add 3 inches. He's shorter than the stacked cabs by about an inch which would make him just slightly over 5' tall.
Because they came with the specs i wanted and for a good price. Ltd or schecter or prs were my othef choices as they all offer similarly specced guitars from wmi but for my c550 it was between that and a prs 24 se i managed to find a deal on the dean and i dont regret the purchase. I needed a dual hunbucker fixed bridge guitar so i bought another korean dean. It won over schecter and ltd because it has 4 onobs not 3 like some retard.

Henry Mitchell
I know you won't answer. It allows use of harmonic minor scale. For example, in B minor, change the F minor to F major. The third of F minor is A, so changing it to A# gives you the raised seventh.
James Bennett

Playing lead guitar is like playing a fighting game where the combos are licks and the linkers are slides, hammers, pulls, string-skips, or position shifts that let you bust fluidly into another combo.

There's a ton of modelers/profilers, both in head/rack mount forms and pedal boards.

how did you find these? did you know to search "handedness", for example? was this searched on google scholar or what? just curious, and thanks for providing them. it's just that when I close my eyes and envision myself shredding one day, it's hard for me to imagine doing it right handed.
Carson Barnes
>Explain that Play an open chord with a glass slide (on pinky). For example, In open G, lets play at the second fret. This would be A major if played across with the slide. But if you fret behind the slide with on the b sting first fret it will lower the third, making A minor. Lesson being that you can fret behind the slide.
Leo Stewart
>it's just that when I close my eyes and envision myself shredding one day
Also, for this example guitar is tuned: g-g-d-g-b-g

Pushing a string down from behind the slide means it's no longer touching the slide.
Julian Rivera
Well, if the guitar is set up right, the string shouldn't touch. It should press ever so slightly below the slide (or you might have to play a bit up the nexk fore more clearance). Also it doesn't have to be open. Many possibilities.

>tfw your amp doesnt require you to twist knobs for half an hour just to get it to sound listenable
learn modes all starting on the same root You'll actually hear the difference that way
Christian Edwards
Lucky Strike, before I quit.
Andrew Miller
Their are seven notes. Soo that means if you start on a diferent root note there will be seven patterns. If you know the seven patters, just play them off the same root note. For example, B minor will start at the seventh fret, and the next note will be c#on the 9th, B phrigian will start on the seventh, but the next note will be a half step at the c.The phrygian shape iss rooted on f# if in B minor.
I just wanna know what the relationship between the two are. Sites just say "the five patterns of the major scale" without even really explaining what that means. I thought it was related to modes somehow but it doesn't seem to be
Josiah Barnes
Decent jazz guitar, could have done worse
Eli Martin
They are probably refering to pentotonic. Look att the image you posted. Those are the seven patterns that repeate one after the other on the neck. Think about it as playing tthe same notes, but changing the order. If you move to the next note on your low E string, it will be the start of the next pattern.
Brandon Lewis
>when your shitty amp is a one trick pony with no functional eq Kek
Jeremiah Clark
Stop thinking about scales and modes as patterns on the neck. They are groups of intervals with a relative root note
C major is D dorian is E phrygian, etc They all have the exact same notes The difference is the root note changes
Any C major scale pattern is also a D dorian scale pattern, etc. It's where the relative root is
That's why I'm saying learn the actual vibe of modes by playing them starting all on the same root. Because when you're a beginner and don't know anything about them it's hard to grasp the concept and hear the differences when you stay stuck in the same group of notes and change the root
Chase Sanders
A mode is just an altered scale, so the modes aren't the same as the major scale but are just altered versions of the major scale or other scales. Its really not hard to understand and yes the major scale consists of 5 patterns but it actually goes way beyond that when you start playing more than 1 octave
Ryan Wright

Charles Long

Joseph Hernandez
A good 95% of online guitar teachers are clinically retarded. Learn from books or a real teacher.
The major scale is seven notes, one of which is a tonal centre. Same for the minor scale, and every mode. "Scale positions" are just ways for autists to zip up and down a pattern and pretend they're making music.
>C major is D dorian is E phrygian So the characteristics move linearly as well? How's that working out for you?
Never mind I think I get it now. The "scale patterns" in the image are just different octaves/starting positions of the Ionian root. I was confused as to what the hell a different "major pattern" even meant but it's separate from modes. This makes the distinction clear now
Jayden Myers
Wow. Heres a smiley face sticker. Or do you want a shiny gold star instead?
Lucas Bell
which one more frequently/easily has been technique?
Aaron Sanchez
Lmao yeah slip on your lifts, put it in your wheelbarrow, and roll it over to me ;^)
oh jeez looks like the tri/gg/er master had done it again
Hunter Reed
Scale position just means playing 8 notes of a scale, but starting from a diferent note. There are seven combinations. It doesn't matter what you refer to it as. Once you learn the whole fretboard you will learn more details. Such as each key has one dominant, two major seventh, three minor seventh. You will see that your dominant chord has a sus4 a half step above the third of the chord, but your major seventh chord two fretts down has a sus4 two frets above the third of the chord. You will realize a diminished chord has a flat five. It is all about learning a key across the neck. A smart person will start to see alot of things, teaching will help even more.
Cameron Allen
No the big one is for a well done assignment. But this one is just as special its for effort.
( ) All these guys are either wrong or are explaining it confusingly. Here goes. If you know one thing in music inside and out, it should be the major scale as it is really the source and basis of most music, even music written in minor keys.
The five patterns probably refers to the fact that there are five basic ways you can play it on the neck. Look up Jimmy Bruno's Five Fingerings. Basically if you learn these five ways, no matter where you are on the neck you will have a logical, easy pattern you can follow when improvising.
Modes: Play C major starting on C. Pause briefly. Now play the notes of C Major starting on D, going up to D and descending back down to D. That's D Dorian. Modes are just scales starting on different notes. If you play C Major from E to E, you have E Phrygian. The important part is that you start on E and ideally end on E, or else you have something different. There are 7 Major modes.
This guy is right, you have to play them either starting on the same root (C Major C Dorian C Phrygian etc) or mix them up in different keys, or else you won't hear the difference.
Owen Bennett
Remind me, why do we hate this guy?
Jack Lopez
Whats with the filename fredo? Also heres your star.
>major seventh chord two fretts down has a sus4 two frets above the third of the chord
A sus4 has a perfect fourth, not an augmented fourth. I don't think you know as much as you think you do.
Ayden Perez
Thanks. Here I said I think I figured it out
Aiden Evans
well two frets above the third is an augmented fourth. either way i dont get what the hell hes talking about
Hudson Anderson
I didn't see that. Basically what I'd do with that is forget about the notes below R (e.g. 7 in the first one, 2-7 in the 2nd, etc) when practicing the major scale. If you were to play them you'd have Locrian then Dorian which confuses matters. If I was practicing Phrygian I'd go from 3 in any one chart, Lydian 4, etc.
Julian Reed
I meant (for example in d major) the g major chord is two frets below the A7 chord. The A major sus 4 is one step above the third. The g major's sus 4 is two steps.
Aiden Lee
I think he might be saying that a dom7 chord will have a 4 above it, if you're improvising diatonically and land on it, and a maj7 coming from the fourth degree would have a #4/#11 coming from Lydian
Tyler Turner
Yes, I am referring to diatoniclly.
Carson Phillips
No. That's not how that works.
A sus4 triad consists of a perfect fourth and a perfect fifth. A Gsus4 chord consists of G, C and D. The chord you're building on G in D major has the notes G, C#, D, which doesn't make a Gsus4.
No, he's trying to say that a chord with an augmented fourth in it is still a sus4 chord. If it has a #4 then it isn't.
Luke Davis
>he plays at 'starting' notes >he doesn't just play the whole neck >he gets trapped in meme boxes You guys really gotta watch the Holdsworth video 100 times before even talking about any theory shit
It's generally only a sus if it's a suspended note. D over A7 would be considered a suspended note that should resolve to C#. However, C# over G is not really considered a suspended note. It is most often used as an extension or add note (Gmaj7#11) or avoided, as it sounds too bright for a lot of music
Easton Bell
Yeah I know as much because of JustinGuitar. The numbers indicate the scale degree right? So the 7 below the R is Gb/F# aka the only sharp in the G Major scale. I only play that note when descending then return to the root
Xavier Rogers
I don't think you get what I mean. Are you implying there is no Gsus4 in D major?
Nathan Thompson
Yes! Gsus4 isn't a diatonic chord in D major!
Isaiah Davis
>he's still swinging at shadows i placed in his mind lmao
Not him, but no there is no Gsus4 in D Major. If you wanted to use the fourth degree above G, you'd have Gadd#11, Gmaj7#11, Gmaj9#11, Gmaj13#11. Those are the possibilities off the top of my head
Grayson Rivera
Did you just watch it for the first time?
Ian Kelly
No
Julian Anderson
I see. Than what is a Gmaj#3rd in D major?
Ian Garcia
So my cat sprayed on my Peavey Tour TKO 115 a while ago, it got into the tweeter and now the tweeter makes a hissing noise. It happened a while ago and i'm not sure if that's what caused it but, most likely. How major would this fix be if i were to take it into the music store?
I was actually hoping someone would post this so I could know the best alternative.
Blake Jenkins
Elixir, regular strings last a week tops with me, Elixirs last for ages.
Lincoln Collins
All of you
Sebastian Peterson
I meant one diatonic note above the third. What do I have wrong? I thought if you moved a major chord's third one scale degree below it was sus2, one scale degree above it would be a sus4. Meaning in D major A sus4 is one step above the third, Gsus4 is two steps above the third..
Jack Bailey
There's a reason they're all trapped here an it ain't because they're disciplined, talented musicians
Juan Campbell
augmented third
Julian Davis
K.
Camden Stewart
It's not scale degrees. It's about the intervals, out of context of the key.
If a chord consists of a root, a perfect fourth and a perfect fifth, it's a sus4. If it doesn't then it's something else. A sus2 chord has a major second and a perfect fifth.
Josiah Cruz
A mode isn’t a scale position on the neck. It’s a series of intervals and how they relate to a root note. Watch Frank Gambale’s “Modes: No More Mystery” video.
Oh yeah you're a regular Hendrix I'm sure, you faggot.
One diatonic note above the third of G, in D major, is the #4. You can't have a sus#4 as it doesn't work the same way as a sus4.
It occurs very rarely in very advanced music. 99% of the time, and certainly every time someone mentions it on this forum, by #3 someone really means nat 4.
I would play you all to the ground, also show me an example of a #3
Dylan Roberts
Wouldn’t it be Gadd#11no3? In sus4 chords, the 4th scale degree replaces the 3rd.
Carter Lee
Post proof, and yeah that was my point, most of us on here will never come across a genuine #3, rather a badly written piece of music where they should have just written a nat 4.
Carter Green
>#3 isn't a thing >oh wait yeah it is, but I'm better than you lmao okay buddy
Daniel Thompson
Look man you need to stop obsessing about sus chords. On that scale degree THE #4 DOES NOT REPLACE THE 3RD. Because it's a tone away it doesn't clash as badly with the 3rd as a nat4, and the resolution is not aurally satisfying enough. When used it is generally an extension or an add note.
What do you wanna hear? Nice melodies or mindless wanking, I can do it all
Brandon Gray
what hand is generally more prone to getting RSI? the fretting hand or the other?
Owen Butler
>mindless wanking now this i can believe
Jonathan Gomez
If someone came on here asking about 15th chords I would also say they're not a thing. Except if you press enough, I would say one specific guy writes them. However no one on here is ever going to come across them let alone need to learn about them. It's the same with #3s. People on here will likely never come across a real one. They might as well not exist. And I never said I was better than anyone.
Whatever you think you do best.
Ryan Sanders
I see, do you know what I am trying to get at, though? Is there a term for diatonicaly raising or lowering a third? Because I do it with every chord. The three major chords, the first and fifth's(dom7) you raise the third one note. The forth's third is raised two. The three minor chords, all thirds can be raised two notes, and the third chord's (F minor if in D major) third is lowered two notes, while the 2nd and 6th chord's third can be lowered one note.
Ryan Ross
nice 25th anniversary se 24. did you mod it?
Sebastian Rogers
Why do you pretend to be me? Os you life really that boring?
OK, apologies for getting short, I thought you were the same guy. Listen to jazz and you'll hear it used pretty often on both maj7 chords and dom7 chords. When you use it on a dom7 chord, it makes it a 7#11. There's a good example in the third bar of "Take the A Train"
Jeremiah Jones
>they're bullying jcope again Just leave him alone guys he really is in your head WAY too much
Matthew Rogers
So a triad (in dmaj) consisting of g-d-c# doesn't exist?
Dylan Moore
Nope it's all stock, thought about modding it but it fills the passive humbucker sonic space fine and plays nice so I left it. It's my main session guitar these days.
Gavin Fisher

Austin Edwards
thats not a triad bro
Bentley Powell
>third wold tile floor hold on is jcope a brazilian? i thought he said he was american
Kayden Miller
Jesus christ are you slow? Yes the chord exists, not it's not called a sus4.
Liam Turner
What would you call it. Because a sus chord has no major OR minor 3rd.
Cameron Richardson
>blues
William Clark
Not in functional harmony no. If you wanted to do something with the C#, you could do G-Bb-C# leading to G-B-D, this is basically Gdim to Gmaj and is sometimes found in jazz (Corcovado)
Brayden Campbell
I am replacing the third, you said "it does'nt" replace the third"...
A G with a flat five is diatonic to D maj. Each key has two chords that can be flat 5. In D major it is G flat "five" and C#dim.
Ian Thomas
>Breaking Bad theme
Tyler Martin
It's not a sus because the "sus" comes from classical harmony, short for suspended.
Originally a suspended note was one that was held from the original bar. Think of the progression F - G in the key of C major. If I was to play C over F and then hold it over G, I'd then resolve it to B over G (the third). That's why they're called sus chords, they have tensions that want to fall to the next diatonic note. The #4 does not work in the same way, in fact generally it wants to rise to the next diatonic note. That's why it's not thought of as a suspension and it is often avoided in music as it is difficult to use well (but is beautiful when you do). Think of Maria by Bernstein. Starts with a #4 that rises to the 5
Joseph Parker
now that's retarded
John Jones
>flat five Wrong. Wrong wrong wrong wrong. It's a #4, G to C# is a distance of an augmented fourth. You will never hear a G(b5) in music, the fifth serves a different function in a chord and in harmony than a fourth/eleventh.
Anthony Robinson
tfw when "soloing" you just follow the chords like a disabled
Can't just be add4, I am not playing the third. I see, than do you know the term for (in Dmajor) a Gmajor with a c# replacing b?
James Smith
Samuel is a chimpmaster from the chimpvela
Ayden Lewis
There's no Gdim in the key of D, Gdim would come from the key of Ab. And yes in the key of Ab it would have a b5. But if we are talking in the key of D, the chord of G would have a nat 5. Chords are built in 3rds so we go G - B - D. Then if we want to add extended notes we can go further, F# - A - C#. Basically a 5th is a part of a chord at its most basic (triad). An 11th is an extension and in this case it's a #11. I say #4 but it's really a #11
At this point I really think you have to be trolling, but I guess I'd call it a G5(#11) but honestly it wouldn't really have a name as it doesn't occur often
I was referining to a double stop of G and c#. While C#dim has C# and G. Also A7 has A-E-G-C#. Very connected.
James Moore
Yeah? How do you call a G power chord? G5-3? Lmao
Camden Williams
lol day laboring ended 30 mins ago jcope. its funny you make so little money that you're forced to spend your evening fishing for your dinner though
Lucas Cooper
A double stop of G and C# is not Gdim, and a double stop of C# and G is not C#dim either. But yes that interval is key to the chord of A7.
Robert Cox

Christian Wilson
when you roll your wheelbarrow full of fish back to your squalid ghetto to feed your family do the seagulls give you much shit?
Carter Rogers
why not
yeah but that's not a b5/#4 chord, that's just a passing chromatic note.
Austin Kelly
Imagine hammer/pulloff of every chord, one scale degree above the third. Because I do it and it sounds great.. That is the entire point of r&b "hendrix/mayfield" style. You hold your chord, but at any time can improve any note around it, diatonicly.
yeah but you only do it with the A and E shape chords, adding either the 9 the 6 or the 4 only
Nicholas Sullivan
Do you not know how to read?
Camden Perez
C# is diatonic.
Ethan Turner
yeah i paid for it. a bone one. better than the old graphite one.
Angel Bailey
Because that interval between G and C# is so dissonant, either it should be part of the chord like A7 or you should use it sparingly. I might do a pull off from C# to B over the chord of G, but I wouldn't emphasise it as it is easy to overdo. Maybe for modern styles of jazz I might emphasise that C# over G, but for most other styles I'd avoid it.
Lucas Barnes
Yes i think sam got his nut.
John Hernandez
I know the Hendrix/Mayfield style, but the #4 is something they rarely did. At least Hendrix, as I'm much more familiar with his stuff than Mayfield admittedly.
Leo Lee
ah just fuck you
>i'm so much of a pussy i can't ever play a tritone on my guitar even if it's for one beat!!!!!!!! the name says itself, it's dissonant! ooooowowowowoowaaaaaaeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!
Doesn't matter the shape. Any diatonic note you can reach is fair game, at any time. Also, in dmajor, all open strings are in key.
Jayden Sullivan
hendrix only did these two shapes because he was an illiterate negro

Ah pardon me for trying to play in the style of the music I'm playing, instead of spazzing out and playing every possible note like a 14 year old who's just discovered modes. Teach me your ways almighty faggot
Untrue, have you ever heard the word "idiomatic"? For most styles of music there are notes that you should avoid even though they might be in key. Play a #4 in a Hendrix tune and you'll sound like a giant faggot. It wasn't in his vocabulary
Zachary Baker
Samuel is a sambomaster from the sambovela
James Cooper
>Play a #4 in a Hendrix tune and you'll sound like a giant faggot. It wasn't in his vocabulary
Yeah, each key has three spots where you can hold your finger straight across. In d it is open, 2nd, and seventh. Just so happens to be at the root notes of the diotonic minor chords, which can also be thought of as the three "pentotonic boxs" in each key.
Benjamin Gonzalez
it's the same pitch, what you're saying simply has no relevancy have you played a guitar in the last months or you just daydream about theory like a sperg?
Nolan Taylor
Whether it's a #4 or a b5 depends on the scale you're using and where the note is leading. You use a b5 in the blues scale where you can also use the nat 4. You use a #4 in the Lydian scale where you also use the nat 5.
Hendrix used the blues scale all the time obviously. Not the Lydian scale. Therefore b5 is fine, #4 is not. Like if in Purple Haze he was to use D# over A. He wouldn't, it would sound like ass. There ya go.
Ethan Gutierrez
Look losers!! I will fucking win and you will lose!!! Aaahahhahaah
No I didn't. Here's what I meant. Hendrix would not use things like Lydian when improvising, he would go for things more based around the blues scale and chord tones. So if he was playing over F in the key of C, he wouldn't play something like B - C - A like I might do in jazz, and he definitely wouldn't play F# - G - E over C either. However he might play Gb - F - Eb - C which comes from the blues scale.
Anyways and more to the point, you can suck my cock.
I love Frusciante but that is unlistenable
Nathaniel Watson

I haven't listened to much but yeah that was bad. The other stuff I heard was good though. I like The Empyrean
No such thing as a minor blues scale. There's the blues scale and country scale, C Blues = Eb Country. Generally blues players (whether playing a major or minor blues) will use the blues scale of the key they're in. E.g. C Major Blues - use C blues scale. C Minor Blues - use C blues scale. However, in C Major Blues you can also use C country scale. BB King mixes the two a lot.
Blues scale: 1 b3 4 b5 5 b7
Country scale: 1 2 b3 3 5 6

Ayden Ross
there's a thread on prs forums with mods people have done to theirs. I upgraded the electronics, bridge, tuners and pickups to the US equivalents. Would not get rid of this guitar.
Anthony Moore
Listen to Niandra, and Smiles from the Streets you hold.
Josiah Barnes

Nathaniel Harris
nostalgia. ernies used to be the best.
Ayden Gomez
Sarcasm is what every bloody faggot on here resorts to when they are completely and utterly out of their depth. You said "minor blues scale", you don't know what the fuck you're on about as there's no such thing. Why don't you crack a theory book, or better yet listen to some actual music
Grayson Wilson
major blues scale = Eb "country scale"
Blake Flores
Hows your life sam?
Kevin Edwards

Xavier Reyes
Read again. I said C Blues = Eb Country. If you want to think in terms of blues scales only, in a C Major Blues you can use C Blues and A Blues, A Blues = C Country
