>a mexican and his mexican made fender.

Sammy has a good hairline. He should shave that mustache and work on those toothpick arms though. Best of luck to you sammy.

I need a backup acoustic. Used is fine something I can for between 500-800. I have a Taylor 414ce. I love it. I don’t want another Taylor or Martin. I mainly play finger style. Recommendations? Thinking a dreadnought but can be swayed.

Eastman? Takamine? Yamaha?

I’m in major metro US location so used market is plentiful

i still doubt this chick had a real gibson, i have the theory she bought a fernandez burny with a gibson sticker.

Attached: 96A1D9F8-AEDD-442E-AF27-B8FE6C377317.jpg (419x547, 69K)

It was a vintage model according to the cashier that handled the string change. Doubtful for 250000 yen though.

have you seen a burny ? these japanese guitars were perfect copies of gibson les paul model the chances are pretty high she didnt had a real gibson.

vintage means 30 years old. a guitar from 1988 is considered vintage now

Deal with it bucko

Granted the exchange rate was pretty shit back then, but when I went to Japan 250000 yen was about £2500 (or ~$3200). Not exactly a small sum.

nothing wrong with not owning the real deal did you know G&R ´s Appetite for Destruction was recorded with a gibson copy ?

this isn't true actually

The girls were lucky that Mugi's father owned the store otherwise Yui would have played an all black rg421 like a spic

actually they did use a superstrat in some solo and the gibson copy.

>you are wrong
i'm not, but you are. gnr management brought the guitar in for slash at the very end of the recording session and it was only used on a few overdubs
>“I was really broke and I hocked all my decent guitars before we went into the studio to make Appetite for Destruction,” Slash tells the website staff. “All I had left were a B.C. Rich Warlock and two Jackson guitars, a Firebird, and a prototype archtop Strat-style guitar. I brought them all into the recording studio for the Appetite session and they all sounded horrible. I was like, ‘F---, what do I do? I have to do the overdubs and I have no instrument.’ So Guns N’ Roses manager, Alan Niven, showed up the night before I went in to do the Appetite overdubs and brought me this Les Paul. I went in the next day and it was the most amazing sounding guitar.”

kakifly is still alive, he is the real yui creator.

Check out that tall as dome.

He's not even talking about the Appetite Les Paul there, he's talking about the Hunterburst Les Paul which was used to record the overdubs at the very end. It wasn't used to record the bulk of the album.
>Rist argues that the Hunterburst, although not played on Appetite for Destruction, deserves a significant place in rock ’n’ roll history...
Then Slash pawned the Hunterburst and Roman Rist says he got the Appetite Les Paul for him later right before the Appetite for destruction tour started.

Does he have a job to go to?

How many anons would honestly say their "low end" guitar from your favorite brand is good enough for recording or live use? Did you have to do any work to it to get it that way? Were the pickups trash or microphonic? Was the fret work terrible?

I'm asking because I see a lot of shit posting on these lower end guitars when there are actually a few jems out there for less than $600.

Pic related is a guitar I regularly use for recording and live use. No issues at all and I shit on Epiphone regularly. The classic vibe series is also a good set of guitars, though the quality has lowered over the past few years to not eat into the profits of the Mexican line of guitars.

Is there any guitar you think is a jem that offers something good for it's price point?

yep, he is rich enough to stop working at any moment yet he is still working at k-on 2 drum bigalow

friday is the most busy wheelbarrow day of the week

I used a lower end pacifica live numerous times. The only thing that really matters is the amp at that point. I heard bullet squiers sound great in those settings. No one but fusion autists gives a shit anyway at that point when you can play and entertain.

What guitar did he mainly use to record Appetite Then?

>imagine knowing this info
Get a life loser. Cartoons arent real.

>he can't afford a Gibson, the only guitar which is good enough, because he spent all of his money on craft IPA

>craft IPA
indeed this shit is expensive

Aesthetic headstock.
It's also by far the worst style of beer.

Pic related. He's also on record saying he had a B.C. Rich Warlock, two other Jackson guitars, a Firebird, and a prototype archtop Strat-style guitar as well. He probably also had access to whatever Izzy Stradlin was using at the time and whatever Mike Clink had available in the studio. It doesn't really matter though, the Les Pauls he's famous for playing came after the record was written and almost completely recorded.

Attached: slash-em-1984-rock-na-veia.jpg (600x400, 135K)

This is true, but there are a few cheap guitars with pickups that cause feedback as soon as a little gain is added because the pickups are microphonic. No amp can save you there. I've seen a few new bands play their first show only to have it ruined by that.

There are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in our philosophies: youtube.com/watch?v=9TS3dg9ckcM

>a B.C. Rich Warlock, two other Jackson guitars, a Firebird, and a prototype archtop Strat-style guitar as well
"You" just posted a quote saying he tried these guitars and they all sounded like shit

>So Guns N’ Roses manager, Alan Niven, showed up the night before I went in to do the Appetite overdubs
Do you not know what overdubs are? What do you think hes overdubbing over, silence?

that's not me you idiot. i even gave you a link but you were obviously too stupid to read through the story
>When Guns N’ Roses entered the studio in late 1986 to record Appetite for Destruction, Slash was apparently playing an assortment of guitars that did not include a Les Paul, whether replica or Gibson.
>"There are too many accounts from Slash and other people that a lot of Appetite was recorded with a black Jackson and a red B.C. Rich,” Rist says. He claims that most of the record was recorded with these instruments and that the second legendary Les Paul replica did not enter the picture “until Slash did some overdub stuff later.”

i do. i have a jazzmaster, telecaster and p-bass. the tele and bass are pretty great. no issues with them at all. the jazzmaster had a low cut nut and i got replacement neck. on the replacement, the 2nd fret was a little tall. a little filing fixed that.

all in all, they are nice guitars. would buy again and are a great platform. it should be noted that the quality of these instruments are not the same as the pre 2015 stuff since they changed to different factories. the cv crafted in china were just as good, if not better than the mim fenders. another thing to note, the cv pickups are closer to spec with the originals than the mim. the mim pickups are hotter.

>21 frets
>glossy neck
If you don't care about either of those things you'll like it just fine.

They're good, fretwire is soft

I tried listening to a bootleg earlier, but ever since that guy talked about Jerry Garcia not really wiping well (apparently it was in an issue of the Rolling Stone in a kaka expose), I can't stop picturing the amount of fecalized shart pellets that must stay tangled in his asshair.

I think it would make for a "stinky kaka asshair pie" if you were to take a look at Jerry Garcia bent over in front of you. It wrecked the Dead for me.

fourth guitar: condor tele, came with gfs pickups and i upgraded bridge to 3 brass saddles
fifth one: pj bass of some unknown brazilian luthier

dude...that very 1st track isn't even aligned with the timeline based on those few initial wave forms. let's say that 1st track isn't the rhythm track, that leaves the track below it. that starts almost perfectly on the start of the bar. the remainier of that track is back and forth on the beats of the bar. the following tracks start almost perfectly on the same bar, that alone is pretty hard to do given the small amount of space you've given yourself without a pre-count which points to the project being tempo mapped.

so you're either lying about playing without a metronome, or you played with one and still fucked up

seriously, the triggers my autism

dude literally shut up and listen instead of looking at soundwaves like the autist you admit you are

I try to use Reverb because L&M sucks horse loads. Sometimes it can't be avoided, though. Look for smaller local shops.

I've been using L&M but the markups can be nuts. My local shops are even worse for marking shit up.

Reverb is your best bet as you can actually haggle and a lot of times independent shops won't charge tax or will charge a reduced tax. A shop I frequent on Reverb charges 5% tax despite it being 13% in Ontario, for example.

Also try Kijiji or FB Marketplace. Sometimes you can find gems in the rough.

I just bought a squire affinity strat for $50. It's the HSS from that guitar and amp combo they had recently. I think it's like 2 years old or so not sure.

Anyways I want to buy a loaded pickguard to swap and I'm looking at these two. It's an 04' American and a GFS Vintage Wound loaded one that looks new.

My first question is shouldn't the American 04' have shielding on the pickguard? It might not be a real American correct? I'm leaning towards the GFS especially because I know what I'm getting and the electronics look good.

How the fuck have you guys gone through so many guitars? I've been using the same MIA Strat for the last 10 years

people here just buy gear, not actually play it

I'm usually on the lookout for the discontinued Elitist Epiphones; they're MIJ, largely feature Gibson electronics, conventional headstock tilt angle (make of that what you will), and more often than not sound just as good as Gibsons of that era, all for under a grand

>tfw you got so much Blues that you cant even practice daily anymore

Find a used Cordoba D series guitar.
You'll know why when you get one.

I've just always bought and sold gear.

yeah the MIJ Epiphones are a cut above the rest. The only Epiphones worth buying are the signature models and the MIJ ones.

how about the korean samick ones and the czech ones ?

Never.
No chops.

the korean ones are much better than the chinese built ones for sure, but not as good as the MIJ ones. The indonesian ones are comparable to korea imo. the one in was made in indonesia in 2014.

You guys use voice leading to create a feeling of movement from chord to chord right?
You aren't some turbo pleb who plays in shapes rather than giving consideration to where voices could or should move right?

This thing killed my GAS. Every single guitar I tried out after I got this just didn't feel and sound as good. Very distinct style and color.

Got it last year to replace the CG-101 which had a crack at the neck joint. Also got it for the higher fret access which I don't use as much as I thought I would.

GAs is a symptom of consciously preventing yourself from getting the guitar you actually want because advice from others and """rational conclusions""" tell you it's actually shit.

So if you have a beginner who wants a sick metal guitar like kirk hammet, and tell him he needs to start on a strat because it was good enough for the real greats back in the day, and to stay away from floyd roses (they're impossible to tune, kid) and EMGs (they sound sterile and bad. seymour duncan, now that's a pickup) you just created someone with GAS. If he never returns to his true self, that he wants a sick metal guitar like kirk hammet, and continues to believe the gearhead nonsense he's been fed and even come up with his own, he will continue buying guitars, amps, and pedals to try and fill the void he refuses to believe he has. But he will never buy that sick metal guitar, because

>Metal is dumb
>EMGs sound sterile
>Floyd roses are impossible to tune
>A fender is good enough

So he clicks "buy it now" on another fucking les paul or something because his internet "friends" will approve of that.

so if i just follow my heart and get a guitar that i just want, i'll be free from GAS?

if it has to be done...

That would be a really pretty guitar for a girl, especially with that rose in the center.

9/10 would buy for my sister if i was that rich.

I think you're right, but I think it's simply because people like buying things. Some people buy more clothes, shoes, etc. than they could possibly need but buy em anyway because it makes them feel good -- it's the same with guitar or any piece of gear for that matter. Some people like to collect gear, perhaps for the reasons above. Also, marketing plays a big role (fav guitarist uses guitar x, I have to have one!) so your reason goes out the window. I fell for this with the LP (big Jimmy Page fan) but after a few weeks for playing it, the goggles wore off and realized it was pretty crummy. The cycle then repeats until you find a guitar that you actually like on a personal level.

Well then why didnt you get a tele?

sweetwater.com/store/detail/S670QMDEB--ibanez-s-series-s670qm-dragon-eye-burst

Speaking of HSH guitars, what impression do you get from this finish? I wanna say its horror Silent Hill esque but part of me thinks people could just mistake it for animal stripes

i'd say it would look better in person but at that price point it's a veneer and will look just as bad as the photos

sweetwater.com/store/detail/RGA42FMDEF--ibanez-rga-series-rga42fm-dragon-eye-burst-flat
this one still has the wood grain coming through it, so it looks more scary. but unfortunately no single coil

it's just a flame maple veneer instead of a quilt maple veneer

please do yourself a favor and get a solid color or transparent finish over normal wood grain like this (shouldn't be veneered unless it's epiphone). if it doesn't cost over a thousand dollars when brand new it's a veneer and they look really bad in person, and you will be disappointed.

Attached: preview.jpg (1200x1200, 155K)

I disagree, I've seen plenty of guitars that look awesome in person on the cheaper side
sweetwater.com/store/detail/RG421PFM--ibanez-rg-series-rg421-pearl-black-fade-metallic
heres one for example, it makes me think of good vs evil

Notice it's not a figured maple veneer or fotoflame.

These veneer guitars look like crap, plain and simple. Boards suitable for caps that look good are 1: rare 2: about $200 in the raw so they don't show up on mass produced guitars under a certain price point. When sliced to make veneers, the 3d effect of actual figured maple is completely lost and the guitar just looks tacky.

To be fair, the nip Fenders are solid. They're usually much better guitars than the MIAs, but with cheaper hardware so they can price stratify.

t. Had the same experience with a Japanese Jaguar

I will never understand where you pull that Silent Hill comparison from

Gonna be going to guitar center and looking for a used

We can agree to disagree, I think they look awesome
Particularly silent hill 3, has these gorey rooms with blood on the walls that have those linear lines across them if you look closely. just brings it to memory

yeah, don't go to guitar center

youtu.be/ZfQ3D59iJxg

research what kind of pickups you want, and have them plug it into an amp and play it a bit for you

there can be bad guitars in any range. so if it feels and plays good, and it plays in tune its good. if you know someone who plays pretty good, maybe bring them along with to give some feedback. unless they're brand-fags. then dont bring them.

mike stern has some good advice

because MBMIA

american gutiars from smaller shops, and even smaller divisions (like fender custom shop) are amazing. it's just a shame that relative quality like that used to be the standard for the rest of them.

fuck it all and buy a kiesel.

MBMIA?

Kiesel really is god tier. For the money, you get so much. If you stick to a solid finish, they're like $1400 and will outclass literally anything

GAS is a byproduct of a consumerist society and an instrument perfectly tailored to it. So many different options and finishes for an electric guitar, so many different ways to sell to people who fall into the trap of continuously looking for that 'one' guitar that will somehow make them a better player or inspire them to practice more.

Reverb and ebay make it especially pernicious because you combine the above with the addictive rush of hunting for and getting good deals.

Which is your favorite, and which is the most versatile?

Ill give you a hint
E_ _ _ J_ _ _ _ _ _

Gotta be my telecaster. The problem is I have 3 of them and an esquire

>which is your favorite?
>which is the most versatile?
You've provided one answer. Is it the same answer for both questions, and if you have three Telecasters, which one are you talking about?

You're like those stupid boomers on tdpri with 11 teles that only differ by nut material

The authentic tone of Brazilian made amps and Brazilian made pickups®™
gofile.io/?c=zot6FB

>Sammyck
isnt that a brazilia brand

Do a black metal song again

I guess my deluxe telecaster is the most versatile since it has 2 volume 2 tone. My regular tele is my favorite because it has the best neck in my hand that fits like a glove. The Twisted tele pickups give it way more output than any other single coils I've played and its in the best color ever, surf green

To be fair I keep each one in a different tuning and theyre all different colors. One is a HH and the other two are SS. The esquire on the other hand has a cool 3 way quick tone switch

Then you need to get rid of all of them except for the HH and the best SS.

I'd get rid of all of them and keep the esquire

Nice, full hardcore.

This almost sounds like a slide

The esquire is really awesome. It also gives me a little nostalgia for when I was younger and got my first fender telecaster....i still regret trading it away. Ill probably never get rid of my guitars because of it

Its fine if you actually make use of what you buy. I see so many boomers who just fill a garage full of amps and only play them once in a while or not at all. Thats where it seems pointless IMO. Or the guys with 100 overdrive pedals with 75% of them just being a copy of a TS with slight tweaks.

I have a boss super overdrive. Is there any reason to get maybe a EHX east river drive or the soul food

Boss Super Overdrive and EHX East River Drive are both Tube Screamer clones.

The Soul Food is a Klon Centaur clone.

Tube Screamer was 70s, SD-1 was 1981. It doesn't really matter, though; we're talking about not having more than one pedal with the same basic topology, regardless of which was released first.

>getting a tattoo on your throat

If I already have an amp with digital fx is it a waste to buy pedals?

Depends, most amp fx's are dogshit, muli-fx units can be meh to very good.

for sure, I think its one of the best to own along side any TS type. I wouldn't mind getting some Klone at some point, but the one I want is pretty expensive ($200ish)

Just build one.

>it takes Sammy half an hour to dial in an amp
I guess that explains why he owns a Hien, at least.

All the OCDs now are version 2 and all the earlier versions cost as much as an amp. I havent heard any demos of an OCD to make it sound better than my SD1

where do you see a H on the amp you are retarded

>I've never played an OCD but I like my SD-1 better
>also OCDs are too expensive
Nobody said that OCDs were "better" than SD-1s, but you're welcome to your preference, regardless of never having tried an OCD.

>Hien owner calling others retarded
dohohoho

Nothing wrong with V2 at all, its still fantastic and I have no idea why it even gets any hate. You really can't judge an OCD at bedroom volume (which a lot of players do) it sounds a lot better a moderate to high volumes. V2 is the first one I used where the single notes don't sound thin past the 12th fret, which is a huge plus for me. Also on 18V mode its very open and dynamic

Also YouTube demos in general are terrible ways to judge any pedal, you have to try them with your amp/guitar and with you playing it. I can tell you that owning a great TS and an OCD they're both completely different and both really good for different guitars/sounds

YouTube demos in general are terrible ways to judge anything.
You need to hear it in person.
