It's a classical user. Theyre nylon. Classical is ez mode guitar with strings that feel as light and fast as .9s. You can play at least 25% faster on one than a steel string.

It's best to have an expensive guitar and a cheap amp if you play for yourself, and a cheap guitar and an expensive amp if you play for other people

>inb4 poor
If a bedroom warrior doesn't buy a nice amp that's one more vintage twin reverb for the real guitarists

If a gigging pro has a cheap guitar he can feel better about doing guitar spins. Save the nice les paul for the studio, smash the strat.

Hey /gg/. Playing guitar (and just guitar in general) is for losers now. If you play guitar or collect them then you're a loser. Sorry to have to tell you guys this. Only old out of touch dudes who don't have a clue bother with it anymore. Guitar is so 20th century. Get with the times grandpa. Anyway bye

you ok there bud? who are you talking to?

I live somewhere where the closest music store is a few hours drive. I have to resort to online shopping.

I borrowed teacher's Yamaha Pacifica although I have more experience with Spanish guitar. I am interested in getting my own electric guitar, however.

Since I can't go try things out, any suggested brands? Brands to avoid? My budget is 76.000ISK, roughly 600USD.

I kind of enjoy the pleasure of Pacifica shape but it's the only feel I know. Stratocaster looks similar. I wonder about Telecaster as well.

>Still crying about someone calling his ugly ass guitar ugly

all that makes sound on an electric guitar is strings and pickups

all that shapes the sound are electronics with slight contribution from the nut, frets, and bridge

electric guitar is a pleb instrument and any monkey can make a good one

>all that makes sound on an electric guitar is strings and pickups
This is 100% wrong.

This. Loose saddles can rattle and make sound.

If you liked that pacifica I'd advise you to get one of those in the 600eur range, they have different shapes, I know some profesionals that play them, they are really nice for that price. If not, maybe a mim fender, alltough I don't know how available are they in Iceland

>I know some profesionals (sic) that play them

youtu.be/WSfVmBKSEEk

he's not playing a pacifica dumbass

He does sometimes, I've been to a lot of his gigs.

>He does sometimes
very much doubt it. but you're too fucking stupid to spell "professionals" though so who in their right mid would take advice from such a retard? tell me smart man, what brand of guitar is he playing in that video?

sorry for this post but im an absolute beginner to guitar, i was wondering about why my alternate picking isn't smooth?
like my upstrokes feel like they catch on the strings to much so I can't strum all 4-6 strings smoothly, its feels kinda like the string is stopping me.
Am I not picking hard enough? i dont want to break the string

maybe try thinner picks?

maybe your picking hand is too stiff

shit bait fuck off

im using a medium gauge pick, i do have thinner though, but most people say to start on medium
i was thinking that too, it probably doesnt help that im holding the pick with an iron grip but i feel like if i hold it too loosely it'll fly out of my fingers

Well I don't want to argue with you, you are clearly here just to start shit, no point in having any sort of discussion with someone with these intentions. He used a Pacifica at last years MareziJazz festival, we even talked about his guitar choice and he said he likes them. Also Moder is a summa cum laude Berkeley graduate, so he knows his stuff. The guy with the original question said he also somewhat likes Pacificas and thats why I included them in the answer. That will be my last post directed to you, someone who can't capitalise letters or spell the word "mind".

>muh anecdotal evidence
lmao go eat shit retard he doesn't play a $200 pacifica. what DUMB FUCK you are. that's a valley arts guitar he's playing in the video you posted which retailed new for $2000+. you're trying to claim he steps down to a $200 dogshit pacifica which is bullshit. in other words you don't know shit about anything. if he does play a pacifica then he's playing a $2000 yamaha custom shop or a $2000 mike stern signature model you dumbass knownothing

yea i'm pretty bad particularly the percussion stuff keep messing up

Is there any point at all in learning new scale shapes after learning the major scale over the neck and memorising the intervals? Instead of learning and practicing new scale shapes, wouldn't it make more sense to just memorise scale formulas? Like if you know the harmonic minor has a flat third and flat sixth, you could just flat the third and sixth when playing the major scale.

It seems to me that the only advatage in learning a new shape is that you can play it quickly or less awkwardly, but I figure if you practice the intervals enough you become used to it and 'organically' figure out shapes in your head, and it becomes just as quick, plus you develop a deeper understanding of how things fit together.

You still have to teach it to your fingers. And you don't want to be thinking about some scale formula while you're playing, you ideally just want to think a sound and produce it on your instrument.

Get to my level bitch

I don't have gender dysphoria

Arpeggios aren't chords, you are wrong

I feel like rocksmith has ruined my guitar playing. For the first year, I did justinguitar on an acoustic and actually learned music. The past year or more I've just been playing rocksmith with my GF. It's a ton of fun, we can play a lot on it and sound pretty awesome, but I also realise I don't actually know any of the songs. Like after 2+ years of guitar, if someone asked me to play a song for them I'd be a deer in the headlights. Not really sure how to start learning songs again, desu.

I never played Rocksmith. You ever pull up the songs on Youtube or whatever and try playing along?

Fuck your gay clique, get a discord

god damn is this 2004!? people still have music folders? I remember doing this, even burning CD's/DVD's of my shit. Nowadays i just share my spotify playlists.

I think the Peavey is meant to be some kind of Fender clone, just go on youtube and have a listen. Peavey seems to be cheap and good enough, from my experience.

I like the Orange sound, but if you don't mind spending some more and waiting for longer, order a Hovercraft amp. You can order the 20W Dwarvenaut model, or some higher wattage one, if you need it, and it's custom designed to your personal preferences.

I'll keep that in mind. I haven't been playing much high gain stuff these days and those amps seem to fit the bill tone wise.

Raise the single coil closer to the strings and/or lower the buckers further from the strings.

>like a dog

For me it's the jazzmaster. It's good for beginners.

Why didn't you do the wraparound with the two middle strings?

these are the strings i hadnt swapped yet

Look at the grime mark. It used to be seated in deeper into another bass.

Who else loves their Orange amp??

I like my Peavey 5150

I like my not-Peavey 5150

me. I just started playing but my flying V sounds fantastic through it

how's the jazzmaster?

who the hell cares, i bought this bass used for cheap and it plays and sounds great, i dont care what they did with the neck.

maybe you should sell your 3 piece neck strat so you wouldnt want so hard to spend time looking at my *dick*cough* guitars

how's the Rick?

that is a DRY fretboard dawg

Rad, but it’s no Flying V

bass guitars are for faggots

Nice handmade brazilian bass lmfao
And sorry besides the skunk stripe my strat has a one piece maple neck.
>that last nonsensical sentence
Kek got em.

i'm sure you'll grow to love it my dude

What Rick? I play a Jazzmaster because /gg/ said the Flying V was bad for beginners, and the. After I bought it the said the Flying V was good for beginners!!! It makes me so mad.

Looks like disgusting indian laurel to me. They feel like balsawood and come with kaka already in the pores.

for your information the neck has dark spots all over it, not only where it touches the body.

>flatsawn neck on a mexiplank
>and he's bragging about it
*shudder*

it's probably a light colored piec of rosewood. th j. mascis jazzmasters have rosewood fretboards on them

nice couch senpai

Sammy how jelly does this make you? Maybe ggogh isn't a meme.

Weird flex but ok.
Look at indian laurel fretboards.

a lot of people own marshalls and gibsons

he doesnt give a fuck anymore he is the Marlon Brando of shredding.

Billy Gibbons plays 8s and 7s and you can hear it.

the video you linked is his good or his sloppy playing

holdsworth played 8s at one point i think even 7s

I have some pots with B 500k written on them, and some with A 500k

which one is logaritmic?

Not the macaco and the amp sounds good but not the marshall tone i would want. Its missing some growl. Heres an in between one with more gain

youtu.be/YKGCkmVzLoo

lmao what a fucking retard

I can just put on a Skid Row album desu.

I've had two classic 50s and they sound great, but they have some issues. They are a fixed bias amp, and they tend to blow tubes fairly often for some reason. However, every tube replacement I've done on one, it never seems to sit in the sweet spot for the amp and it seems it would be better to put a bias pot in it and set them all to about 30ma per tube. Also they are notorious for overheating. They are cooled by a 4 inch fan mounted to the inside of the chassis which does almost nothing. There is no ventilation. Another issue with them is that the reverb tank seems to go out. I've had two, and both tanks stopped working. If I was going to get a nice tube amp that does everything, get a 50w EVH 5150III. Most of the demos you'll see is all metal but honestly, it does everything very well and they comes stock with JJs. It's a great gigging amp.

Not a bad idea.

Sounds just like /gg/ lmao

Isnt 30 cold?

It's a slightly shittier built (inside) Fender Hot Rod.

i can just listen to kiss records.

Not on an amp like that, at least in my opinion. It would be cold for something like a Marshall or a Fender, but on amp where most tone comes from the preamp section you are better off biasing it on the colder side, at the very least just to extend tube life. For instance, the 5150s, be it EVH or Peavey come biased around 35ma per tube from the factory.

Reminder that all tube amps are Fender copies

what fender does a mesa copy

thanks for the info man! i honestly was very close to pulling the trigger on one. I'll have a look at the 5150 and fender hot rod.

fwiw my dsl 50 is biased at 36mv. marshall recommends 45mv.

mesaboogie.com/about/randalls-story.html

Princeton

Yeah marshall cold biased some amps too to prolong tube life. 45 is hot. 40 is a good spot imo. But yeah i assume not all amps are the same. Does the peavey fry the tubes plates?

Go up to 40 homie. Marshalls arent meant to be neutered.

Is there a Saitama training parody image for guitar?

Go outside for at least 5 mins bro.

I have a classic 50 right now that sounds great, but it has all of the issues I listed above. If you do look at the 5150III, they make two version of it now. The EL34 version and the 6L6 version. Personally I recommend the 6L6. The newer ones have dual centric knobs for volume and gain(channels 1 and 2 share EQ) which is a huge improvement. Glad I could help !

the thing about the old dsl 50 and dsl 100 is that the tubes are directly mounted to the pcb. the heat would make it semi conductive and fry the board.

the old board i had had that happen to it and it would continuously blow the ht fuse. at the time i had the tubes biased at 40mv. the new board that's installed fixes the issue those old boards had but i'm just extra cautious with it. so that's why i have it at 36mv.

how did you get good

Peavey is the most shit and awesome company at the same time.

What other brands are both?

Marshall.

Oh i see. When things like that happen its easier to see boomers point of view on electronics construction

Dean

sweeping

Lets hear it

gimme 20 minutes

Why should I learn to Sweep pick?

all you do is shift the 1 pattern you know across the fretboard

wow so its just like any other technique

So you can discover for decades what a shit guitar player you actually are.

Good technique for chord changes or key changes. Watch chet atkins

Im wiring my guitar and the hot plumbum smoke is going directly to my eyes

Where can I learn this

If youre a basic bitch sure.
No one cares. Stop being so thirsty

I can sweep chords, that's easy, i'm talking fast
arpeggios n shit.
I can do that "7/9 chord with a hammeron on the e string (12 to 13 hammer)" thing

Fuck you I am asking about health

Im working on sweep taps and wide and fast legato

>own a Gibson™ Les Paul
>own a Fender™ Stratocaster
>now own an ESP™ Mirage Deluxe

where do i go from here /gg/?

surely my skills will improve with another guitar. i was thinking of an acoustic, either steel or nylon but i'm not 100% sure. maybe take a different route for a change and get a bass instead

Dean ml with floyd and telecaster

Why

Drop the kids guitars and get a Dean

Why not?

You improve by learning what you are playing

Has Sam kys himself yet?

that pic its a repost, please stop posting reposts fag. Oh wait is you r.

yes, its a repost, because that's my guitar.

i don't see the point in constantly taking pictures of the same thing. one pic is good enough, one pic is all you get for free

>because that's my guitar.
i doubt it you are r a fag which picks random pics off insta and repost them here ad nauseum.

youtu.be/iU5hqYQ0oQM

ok, try reverse searching it then faggot. its the only pic i have because i spend more time playing it than taking pics of it

And you spend more time shitposting than playing

I only improved when I bought a Dean. Shredding, getting gigs, or getting pussy have all been a walk in the park since.

i thought it was tom morello

Tom morello wishes

>his posessions get pussy for him

i don't like dean though

who says i'm shitposting? came here with a legitimate question and then i get called out for reposting a pic of my guitar. this may be Yea Forums, but that doesn't mean everything is a shitpost. maybe go outside and have sex or something :^)

>having sex in public
Degenerate

shoulda got the V

every time I forget which one is Log I just google it
I suggest you do the same

>i don't like dean though
why?

based fro/gg/man. somehow you always manage to ruffle all the right feathers in /gg/

is it ok to use computer wires to wire the guitar
or do they have an impedance that muffles the sound or something

played a few some years ago, so maybe its time i retry them, they felt awkwardly heavy, and yet the sound was thin and tinny. neck was real thick like a baseball bat.

this is literally the only place where i can talk about guitar shit with anybody and actually find cool new shit in terms of play styles. call me selfish but i want this general to actually be good

user, you've always wanted me to come over to hear you play guitar and look at the collection. But these aren't guitars user, is this what you've been playing with all this time? You have so many, you must really like them

This may be too much for you. Honestly you come off as a retard.

Use this opportunity to learn chord shapes. You'll be able to identify the chord shape by its sound.

>always with headphones

You know, I think thats a fair assessment

not him but I always play with headphones :(
