What’s the deal with orange amps?

They look orange, while other brands don't.
William Powell
Did you guys notice Orange is being brought up on /gg/ every damn thread? They're fucking paying shills.
Christopher Robinson
Just do a parts caster. Get a custom warmoth body

He should buy all the parts from guitar fetish. Their bodies already come painted, and they got some crazy paintings

I just got one after selling my AmSt back in 2012. It was a '96 in Vintage White. I actually prefer my CV 50s over it. Maybe it's the one piece maple neck and Custom Shop Texas Special pickups?

Check out page 46 in Ted Greene's "Chord Chemistry" book. Should be easy enough to find. You'll probably have to drop the b7 or 3rd if you want to cram in all that information and still play a physically possible fingering.

Stick the headstock or one of the body horns up your ass, and spread it to the sides in a circular movement. Then play the guitar. That way you will be feeling something while you shred.

I wasn't clear, what I meant was have you ever heard of a rectangular plank with no shape like the ones they have on that site but predrilled, the ones the had that i saw were completely blank(no holes even). sorry to bug you have a nice day.

Holy fuck I want one of these so bad. I already own a Strat so I will have a hard time justifying the purchase. But there is something so compelling about this design.
Do you have a job? Save your money and get something just a little better. Chances are with gear that bad you'll end up buying pedals whenever you have spare cash to try and make it sound better.
Hunter James
Metal is a genre liked by edgy kids. James hetfield was 18 when Metallica was formed
I do but it doesn't pay well. Saving up $500 takes several months on its own after paying my bills and putting a little in my savings account. I'm getting fucked on rent. What makes these bad? Where's the cutoff point for "good" when it comes to beginner setups? Any other amps in that range worth looking at? I've only heard praise of it.

Alexander Bailey
They put Chad instruments up there for a reason. It's the manlet filter
>What makes these bad? The guitar will stay in tune worse and the frets and neck won't feel as smooth as a nicer instrument Its actual tone is a crapshoot, cheaper pickups have random numbers of winds, mystery magnets, and random copper content in the wire. Some of them actually sound decent. The wiring harness might contribute to electronic noise due to poor shielding and poor wiring. A pot metal bridge will wear out and contribute to tuning issues and string breakage sooner rather than later
As for the amp I can't really say, tone snobs swear to god they can hear even order harmonics which they think are impossible for software to generate. And then when they realize software can generate even-order harmonics they start acting like "natural tube overdrive" has a mystical quality that can not be emulated as if a thermionic valve is a living, breathing thing.

It's not about the difficulty in playing one or the other, playing a different instrument will highlight different aspects of your playing which foments creativity
Julian Barnes
White incel babble. Please don't spout any more "red pills" based on your brilliant observations of a society you barely take part in and mostly know from memes and TV shows.
It's just good music. It's loud, it's rhythmic. You can listen to it with your friends and dance at the shows. There's not much else to it.
Or have some willpower and turn the gain down and the effects off.
It's something called fun, which you might not have been aware adults could or should have. Childish is avoiding anything but a drab professional, businesslike image because you aren't aware that there's more to adulthood and desperately want to be seen as an adult.
Finally ,a good answer.

>Some classical music has been composed by teenagers. So why did you first try to argue that metal is old people's? Sounds like you're not so sure of that.
Lol, this.
True
It doesn't take mysticism to know that even the best digital simulation doesn't sound like the real deal. What that is good or bad depends on the listener, myself think the simulation is always bad.
>justifying why he behaves like an afraid beta and trying to look like he does it because he's smart Lmao
A better instrument may allow you to improve but I don't think a mim Fender is actually a bottleneck.
Acoustics force you to play better. I guess we already diagnosed your problem, faggot.
I've found this to be true
Not true, my Les Paul with extra jumbos and 2+mm is easier to do chords than my acoustic.
True but it doesn't exclude that one is harder than the other
Lmao this guy is full of shit Ask me how I know you're barely an "intermediate" player

If you really want an ez mode acoustic buy a classical or flamenco guitar. They're perfect for electric babby fingers and are insanely easy to play quickly.
>i don't play electric, it's too easy because the strings are looser and you can use effects to hide your shit playing >i have MAN hands, i'm a MAN unlike that little faggot dimebag and his little kid music
Hudson Collins
if you play any kind of guitar you are a tryhard or a manchild, no exceptions
If you can't play an acoustic as well as you can an electric you're an embarrassment. If you still use power chords after your second year of playing you are an embarrassment.

Piano and synth are ez mode. Why not learn guitar, an instrument that is completely and utterly asinine and confusing while being much jarder to learn any theory on. But here's the pay off, you don't look gay as fuck while you play it like key players do

Carson Jones
>completely and utterly asinine Just tune in fourths bro. No one worth knowing is playing open chords these days anyway.
Hunter Ortiz
I'm pretty sure Dimebag could play the acoustic well.
First phrase is very correct. Second phrase means you're a manchild obsessed with not looking like a manchild to the point you would not play power chords even if the music requires it.

Cars and motorcycles can be benchmarked and Japan consistently wins in their price bracket.
Guitars can't. They're basically fashion accessories. It's all about the image, things like fretwork and neck profiles go unnoticed by 99% of players. They just want to ape their favorite rock star in hopes of gaining some fame by association and familiarity.
That's why ESP started ramping up the shilling this decade, hoping their guitars would become fashionable enough.
And that's why every company apes the first two for the most part, regardless of country of origin - it's a fashion accessory, familiarity sells.

Don't get fooled, in the anime she wears glasses and looks like some kind of spoiled wallflower emcel. She'd never date guys like us.

entered some kind of early quarter life crisis when i saw some peeps that might be younger than me perform live last month. want to learn bass now. bro's told me that the epiphone thunderbird sounds like something that i would want and that i could keep using it after 4 or 5 years still. is it good and how can grandpa me make it sound all messed up?
Bass is certainly easier to find a spot in a band with but it's not that fun of a solo instrument. Do you even like listening to bass lines? Also get a precision or jazz bass by fender. They are the standard and don't cost much.
Justin Wilson
Why are bass chicks always so chubby and ugly-cute in real life? I love that
Is the JS12 a good 1st electric guitar? (Have been playing acoustic for 8 months) I'm kind of worried about the tremolo and that it wouldn't be as good as a Floyd Rose.
It would be measurably worse than a floyd rose because it operates by having two knife edges riding on steel posts and it's made of pot metal
The only reason the poorfags here hate tremolos is because the pot metal ones on cheaper guitars stop staying in tune after a short while. If a guitar costs less than $1000 or is not specifically advertised as having a floyd rose original, get a hardtail.
Chase Sullivan
>Do you even like listening to bass lines? not him but I thought everyone did
is this the anime version of two weird fat chicks, a turbo-slut, that wannabe pixie girl who looks like a boy, and the only hot chick on earth who plays bass?
Charles Bennett
Sure, it just seems like that user got talked into playing bass by his friends in his clouded quarter crisis mind
nah, i just want an actual hobby and thought that it would be a neat thing to learn before i turn into fucking dust. so does the thing really sound that bad? because it would cost me around 420 euros to buy it with a amp.

idk. there's a listing for one that says that it's 319, but getting it from that one store is actually 60 euros cheaper than from the other website. it might just be that the store has a slightly higher price and that the other website has higher taxation on their wares because of their placement.

Okay but what specifically about the Legacy Tribute is bad? What would a literal beginner notice? I'll take a look at it.
