are gibsonfags the equivalent to bmwfags in /o/? turks that buy a second hand 3 series from the 90s (second les paul studio in this case) and start calling everybody else poor?
>he'll never wake up to pic related on Christmas morning Well, yeah, I hope I never wake up to a left-handed guitar on Christmas morning, considering I'm right-handed. Project harder, Abdul.
Well hes the only guitarist whose been compared to Coltrane frequently, so take it for what it is. He has a lot of other work and that was his cover of Coltranes song.

Varg is the master of atmosphere and storytelling in his playing
Christian Torres
I think you mean Quorthon. Hes unironically better at it than varg. Bathory>Burzum
It's not nearly as advanced as his later work and he personally wasn't a fan of the record in the long run but it still has a lot of nice tracks. He tried to emulate a Sax on the guitar which is why he sounds way different than a lot of players and had a crazy legato style. My personal fav was his 'Hard Hat Area' album, this track to me has his best ever recorded guitar solo: youtube.com/watch?v=HgL7WCE-eZo

Well after months of goading in /gg/ I finally took the dive and got a Gibson Les Paul Standard. Simply put this thing is amazing. The notes have an almost 3d quality to them, I've never experienced this kind of tone or sustain from an electric guitar in my entire life. It feels and sounds almost supernatural. I dunno, it's hard to explain with mere words.
Anyway, this will be my 5th year playing and I had no clue what I was missing until now. My American Fender Tele, Strat, and all the other shitty foreign made guitars I've collected over the years will be going up on Reverb next week.

man, there is Schoenberg's Harmony. I'm reading it and it is excellent, starts off with the very basics, though at times it is kind of hard to understand due to Schoenberg's writing style. it is miles better than those boring and soulless textbooks, I'll give you that, though it is often a bit heavy on theory

The date and time on my camera are off sorry. It's had a headstock repair but it's rock solid as far as tuning goes so it's good
I honestly haven't listened to much Holdsworth, tbqh. I've watched his instructional vid and listened to 16 Men of Tain a couple times, but my favorite track of his is this one:
Rick Beato's channel on youtube. Any book he mentions, buy it. And his book. Dude used to teach theory at the college level, knows his shit.

fuzz is better than distortion get an amp with reverb and delay tuner pedals are unnecessary apart from that whatever you want. whammy dt is useful if you don't want to retune all the time to play different songs and wah pedals are always fun

Newbro here After restringing my low B on a 5 string bass (BEADG) I noticed disgusting fretbuzz on the deeper notes. Should I restring the other 4 strings risking that I fuck up while doing so to see whether the higher neck tension will fix it or should I just go to my local music store and let them do it?

Start with the blues. Listen to a lot of jazz, especially standards. Pick out two or three tunes and learn the melodies and chord progressions, then improvise over them using the scales you know. Start reading books on jazz soloing and the kinds of harmonic devices you can use to outline changes, play outside, and resolve your times. Then start transcribing - this is easily the most important thing you can do for your jazz playing and it'll be a lot easier if you have some baseline understanding of what jazz guitarists are playing so you can anticipate how they're moving through their lines.
I listed about 4-5 other steps that had nothing to do with reading books on jazz, and also said that the most important step was the process of listening to and replicating jazz licks and phrases.
But I shouldn't be surprised; based on your post doing any sort of reading at all must be an absolutely monumental task for you.
Adrian Taylor

Levi Cook
>can't even count how many steps he listed is a good start to listen to coltrane and miles davis albums
Xavier Morris
Anyone has ever tried American Performer Mustang? It looks so fucking cute.
It helps to know how chords and scales correspond with one another, but no, you don't need to play a different scale or arpeggio over each chord in a progression. In fact, it's almost always better not to or your playing will just sound like a dude running through scales and you'll lose the melodic and harmonic flow that makes jazz sound the way it does. That's why I suggest doing a fair amount of transcribing, because you'll start working those lines into your own improvising and you'll pick up on how to connect licks with larger ideas. The theory aspect comes into play when you want to understand why certain lines work the way they do and why a particular improviser might chose one idea over another. Like, it's great to hear some really angular altered dominant line and then learn how to play it but if you just play it randomly whenever it'll sound like shit.

user gave you very good advice. be grateful. learning jazz will take some work. google "jazz standards", learn them first.
Xavier Thomas
I like his solo stuff, but my favorite Guthrie performance is Bad Asteroid by The Aristocrats.
Eh, not every time. It's okay to end a solo on the root but resolving on the other chord tones (3, 5, 7) sounds less cheesy. And guys like Metheny will resolve on the 9 or 13 which sounds really spacey and open.

Should i get a jazzmaster? I never had a guitar with a whammy bar and i really want to try it, for stuff like loveless I have less then a year of expirence and a tele and a strat btw
Connor Lewis
Does your strat not have a tremolo arm?
Anthony Hall
Ill be honest, i wouldnt even upload that if i were you, pretty shitty mate
Tyler Taylor
I could install one on it if i wanted to but its a shit guitar (100$ knockoff), i got the tele because i got sick of all of that strat's buzzing and a weird hum it made
This guitar is adequate. So, wait. The dude who has been calling Gibson owners trannies is a literal, admitted tranny-fucker? Amazing.
Henry Bailey
I wouldn't worry about improving it then, which Jazzmaster do you want?
Charles Cooper
still everything is based around the tonal centre, I thought that is what he was asking about. also for pop music its fine, I remember a paul mccartney interview i read where he didn't even know you could go to the 3 5 or 7 of the chord until like 10 years into the beatles career so whatever.

Austin Parker
Not a huge Jazzmaster fan but I tend towards the discontinued classic series guitars because you get something that's pretty true to the original era Fender stuff at under $1000 and you can get it with a lacquer finish (a big thing for me). If you don't like the 7.25" radius or lacquer finish then I'd recommend the classic player Jazzmaster.
Colton Garcia
>tfw no 8 string 24 fret floyd rose guitar with EMG-X pickups
Just put it together yourself. Don't even pay for the paintjob, do that yourself to. There has never been a guitar design that's easier to make than a fender. Buying one already made is like buying a lego set pre-assembled and then claiming you just like blocky stuff.

Joshua Allen
You could be like all the greats and put together your own custom guitar. Or you can be a huge gaylord and let "fender" (without Fender, the guy) decide what's good for you and have it put together by some underpaid mexicans, or put together by underpaid mexicans supervised by overpaid americans. Your choice.

Gibson never had QC issues. QC standards are looser on low end models like studio, tribute, etc so you're more likely to get a guitar with a microscopic finish flaw (duh, they're hand-finished), three piece bodies, and extremely distinctive mineral streaks in the wood. The standards and up are 100% flawless every time.
if gibson just had robots spray their guitars with a thick coat of just one color they would have zero quality problems all across the board and nobody would care if a body was one or five pieces
Its like a tele and les paul did the fusion dance but one of them messed up the steps
Oliver Gomez
But then your guitar will feel like plastic and instead of the whole thing wearing and aging with you the pickguard will yellow a little and maybe you'll have a gross scratch or two. It also won't smell good like nitro. >t. guy that lives Fender but hates poly
Evan Long
i love a good poly finish. it's smooth and comfy, feels like playing on glass.
No, I would say most of his stories are true but he definitely makes up a few here and there just to fuck with Joe Rogan. Joe Rogan had the author TJ English on his podcast and Joey at the same time and they talked about the Cuban mafia and it’s history because TJ English was writing a book about it and they would talk about stuff that they other person knew whiteout the other person really mentioning it before (Joey through experience and English through research and interview) the book is called The Corporation, I bought it and it’s pretty good

Firebird pickups aren't the same as normal mini-humbuckers. They have blades and sound much thinner.

I use tux for .gpx files and a pirated guitar pro 5 for the others. Don't like the newer versions.

unless you already have a woodworking hobby or are serious about getting into it, wait around for a deal on one of those harley benton cabs
