It's not a Standard

You should purchase it because it is singularly adequate.

I prefer non-chink guitars. And I'm not really a fan of female genital mutilation

Standard owner here. I love mine, but in retrospect (I bought mine when I was young), the binding obviously isn't worth the significant extra cash.

I only play at home so binding isn't that important to me. Besides the looks is there any reason why you would choose a standard over a studio?

Well the gold hardware is certainly ugly

I recommend The WTF interview that just posted with him(Buddy Guy). He's the real deal and a nice person too.

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.

i would rather the Vai Ibanez in the OP photos than this.

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.

>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.

You should play an acoustic for a while until you can do that.

In what way is a german with long hair and a high pitched voice singing about dragons "tough guy"?

Nobody listens to metal to be tough unless it's one of those subgenres that aren't actually metal

Do you think people listen to rap to be tough too?

Acoustics just help finger strength, nothing else

Metal is a desperate attempt at a masculine identity for suburban nerds with low iqs.

Acoustics help you play tightly and stop hiding behind effects.

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

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.

>Some classical music has been composed by teenagers.

There are people in this thread that are over thirty and listen to metal

I thought that was the majority of people that still listened to actual metal instead of its shitty subgenres.

You're just haters. Orange amps are the best amps.

how do you mean?

You didn’t know? Metal is for children

What exactly makes a guitar good or shit?

Both are bland pieces that people not involved with playing instruments love

>Good
Says Gibson, ESP, Fender, or Strandberg on the headstock
>Shit
Says Ibanez on the headstock

Uh oh!

still a good song. the cover is anything but bland.

Strandberg or Steinberger paddles. Anything headless really.

If you play two notes per string with your index and pinky spaced one fret apart and walk that pattern across all the strings, it looks like St Vincent.

babymetal is unironically based

Classical Gas is a good piece of music.

Which ibanez are you describing?

>tfw no green haired anime metalhead gf

Yeah it’s FUN for adults

do you ever alternate between thinking you're hot shit and coming across someone actually good and realizing you're fucking garbage

You dumb fucking weaboo

>Buy an ESP
>it doesn't come with a complimentary anime girl

you fags lied to me

not even anime girls play ESPs for some reason
it's always gibson/fender
anime/manga that involve motorcycles or cars have no issues repping national brands, but ESP just seems to be completely absent in media

Only the real ESPs come with anime girls. If you bought an E-II you fucked up.

Should have bought a Gibson

>ESP and Ibanez: here, have a quality instrument
>japanese guy: only a gibson is good enough

>gibson and fender: here, have a quality instrument
>american guy: fuck off gramps, i only play ibanez and ESP

why are people like this

wanting to stand out in a sea of domestic-buying cucks

whats a good free DAw i can use thats easy to use for stupids l ik eme

Not really, but the Kami Band is.

Are there any anime girls that play a yamaha instrument?

Kaka 2.0

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.

who's the one on the right? she's cute

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?

me

which one would date guys like us?

they were yanking your chain pops, firebirds are terrible and people laugh at them for being old

get a telecaster with two humbuckers

>which one would date guys like us?

A bassist. All bass chicks are hos.

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.

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.

Attached: 13996331_800.jpg (600x360, 10K)

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.

>Do you even like listening to bass lines?
not him but I thought everyone did

youtu.be/2rDeLJ4DrVQ

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?

Sure, it just seems like that user got talked into playing bass by his friends in his clouded quarter crisis mind

Drum chicks > bass chicks

Come on

Confirmed.

>tfw no post-shoegaze jp band gf

True, they are cute tomboys like my wife Ritsu

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.

Probably Christian rock mane idk

I want to get a fender amp and paint it with that raindrop pattern

Lol her technique is horrible

420 euros for an epiphone+amp sounds like a fucking highway robbery what the fuck
are epiphones just more expensive in europe?

New thread. Keep the kakaposting to a minimum this time or I'll call the janny.

Yeah but she's hot

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.
