Looks like if it was a spring issue it would be falling down, not being pushed up. Seems more like the problem would be the screw thread being stripped
Leo King
Well, it depends on how it's mounted. If it's mounted to the body, then it's probably a stripped screw/hole issue. If it's not, then its a spring issue.
Jason Sanders
But then again, if it's mounted to the body then the screw head would stop it from rising. SO it has to be the other, which would be a spring issue.

They're not as terrible as /gg/ makes them out to be. They are, however, drastically inferior to Flying V's.

They are not Gibsons, therefore, by definition, they are inadequate.

That's a good one. The fretboard might need some oil but other than that it should be quite good right out of the box. Those cheaper Ibanezes have improved a lot in recent years.
They wear out faster, fine tuners are not as precise, the arm might wobble... Lots of things to complain about.

They look like a meme but don't sound like one. The basic effects are actually very good and all those knobs and switches just give more sounds and flexibility. Like yeah, they are expensive but I think that you also get what you paid for. You don't pay for fairy dust.
Are you implying that rhythm is actually predominantly above the 12th fret or are you misunderstanding the -lets meme? A leadlet is someone who can't play leads, just like a brainlet is someone without a brain. If the former... uh, maybe in funk?
Nathaniel Adams
why is it that whenever a girl is best girl, she plays a gibson?
John Mayer has embraced DI recording: >“When I’m playing on people’s sessions these days, I don’t usually bring an amp; I record all my guitars through my Akai MPC [X],” Mayer claims. “Why? Well, because that’s what the rest of the music is suggesting. When everyone is using virtual instruments and virtual effects, there’s no oxygen. >“Those frequencies are so well cordoned off, a Bassman amp with three mics put on it literally will not fit inside the song. There’s a lot of resistance to that from producers.” >“My guitar parts are getting on three times more records these days than when I came in with my guitar amp and a couple pedals and mics. It wasn’t fitting the lexicon, so I had to really look at that and ask, ‘Is the old way of doing things really honouring the electric guitar?’
Jaxon Hernandez
lol >mfw bullied jroach can't even bring himself to reply keep up the good work user
the vast majority of working artists use modelling these days, with or without actual amps, because it's more cost effective, more flexible and adaptable to different venues, and more reliable than a pedalboard.
just using the axe FX is like using a pedalboard with a preamp pedal on it and just using a clean poweramp or going into the PA
Noah Brown
>Mfw he's so constantly butthurt over a random mexican being, hilariously, better at guitar than him that he thinks me, a canadian, is jroach
i remember this was criticized in a way that gave gibson owners a backhanded compliment, basically calling them shitty players who need to rip off a classic tone to sound half decent

Well, that's accurate. The same goes for the retards who buy strats, vintage reissue garbage, and signature amps and pickups.

usually they prey upon people that already had their guitars though

I went to a show where a guitarist had killer tone coming out of his Fender Twin. His Twin died mid-show. The opening band was still hanging around and let him use their Line 6 modeling amp. He literally set it to a Fender Twin preset, set the tone knobs how his actual Twin knobs were set and started playing, and it sounded exactly the same. This was in the early to mid 2000's, and Line 6's have gotten better since then. Y'all be falling for the snake oil HARD.

At least Ibanez is such a guitar nerd brand that I don't think they have to pay anyone. Basically only the artists with production signature models get a commission of sales. Others may get discounts, some free guitar or are allowed to buy or get a LACS. I exchange Ibanez gets a lot of visibility.

Jace Johnson
Dude what? Did I say anything about those other brands? Besides, LACS can make as good guitars as anyone else and those titanium rods serve a purpose.
Christian Lopez
That's because the nuances of tone disappear in a live mix. In a recording or a solo session they're apparent as ever.
I am a tone snob and while I would gig with an MIM HH strat and POD HD500 plugged into the biggest PA speaker available I would buy an R8 les paul and a vintage mesa/boogie if I was offered a recording deal.

hey Anons, I've heard the Cordoba C5 is the way to go if you're looking to buy a beginner classical guitar. Is this true? do you have other recommendations??
This. One rack space can do the work of ten units from a decade ago. If you watch the backstage tour for the bands, they're using smaller and smaller racks, most of it is wireless, switching and an Axe FX. Way less work for the techs, more reliable, and less to set up.
Just look at the page of the top artists who are using it.
It's being used in pretty much every genre, by top players.
Lincoln Robinson
Petrucci hasn't used Ibanez since the 90's, he's been playing Music Mans since.
Clapton was the guy who made Les Pauls and SGs popular, then switch to the black strat.
Slash play's Gibson, but "top of musical ability", no. Jimmy Page, Billy Gibbons and a whole slew of players are better than Slash. Most big players own LPs anyway - Townsend used them for years, before switching to other brands.
But your post is an idiotic "our guy" nonsense post anyway. A player uses what works best for them. It's music, not a football team.
Evan Cook
Dude. Okay, it's Yea Forums, but lemme educate you about the realities of endorsements - they RARELY pay artists money to do it. There are different levels to it, too. Most of it is free gear, but not always. The top guys will get a couple of free guitars, maybe, especially if it's a signature model (they don't get a cut of the sales - that's why Zakk Wylde left Gibson and started his own line, he was selling an ass ton of guitars for Gibson and he got zip.) What most players get is special pricing, called "artist pricing" or "friends and family" pricing. The top players get phone numbers of the custom shop dudes to order guitars (that they pay for). The most you'll ever get is a couple of free guitars, even the top players. SOMETIMES, they'll pay for a photo for someone big for an ad, but not usually. The only time I've heard of an artist being paid to pimp gear is doing an appearance at a booth at NAMM. (and it's enough money for them to do it, and free gear.) PRS is known for giving out tons of their base model guitars to new players, to get their brand out there, it's smart marketing. Or they used to. Gibson and Ibanez and Fender are notorious for being really stingy with freebies. I worked with a band on a medium sized label who scored an amp endorsement, and each guitarist got a free half stack. They found out they suck, so they toured with their 5150s, and the company didn't really give a shit. They sold the half stacks after the tour, they threw them in the truck as backups and never got used. A lot of endorsement gear gets sold for spare cash.
Is Samuel the Yea Forums equivalent of /g/'s poojeets?
Zachary Butler
Fellas I'm a poor and in uni and I need to pick myself up a dirt cheap electric. Trying to decide between an ESP LTD EC-10 LP (189EUR) and pic related (139EUR).

I just read this article and am super confused now, if Im playing a mode, is the root of it not supposed to be the key? C phygrian starts on a C so the key is C right?

Leo Allen

Dylan Johnson
>C phygrian starts on a C so the key is C right? It's the key of Ab
Wyatt Scott
im a fucking retard, ive been playing everything wrong
Asher Harris
This is a prime example of why it's best to not even think about modes. Worry about major and minor tonality, which is the way we analyze music, and then consider the notes in the chord you're playing over to us as a guide for where you should resolve notes to.
So few songs are actually modal.
Jaxon Young
just imagine modes as regular major/minor scale but emphazising a note that is not the root of said major/minor. This is easily achievable by playing the notes that form the chord + the note that make the mode differ from the major/minor scale.
So if you are playing C phrygian, focus on C, Db, Eb and G, give these notes a bigger duration, volume or repetition, while doing the oposite for the rest of the notes.
Jack Peterson
Don't be so hard on yourself. If you're playing 3 nps scales, you'll have 7 positions. In the key of C, it goes...
C ionian D dorian E phrygian F lydian G mixolydian A aeolian B locrian
C is the mother key of all those modes but it's better to think of the modes in terms of how they relate to their major scale.
D dorian - 1 2 b3 4 5 6 b7 E phrygian 1 b2 b3 4 b5 b6 b7 F lydian 1 2 3 #4 5 6 7 G mixolydian 1 2 3 4 5 6 b7 A Aeolian 1 2 b3 4 5 b6 b7 B Locrian 1 b2 b3 4 b5 b6 b7
I like to think of it this way rather than relating everything back to the mother key
Adam Barnes
so to be perfectly clear, if Im jamming in the key of Ab, Id play a C phygrian instead?
Kevin Nelson
If C is the root note :)
Leo Sanchez
thanks for the advice guys, I really appreciate it
Matthew Torres
The key is C phrygian. The root is C, yes.
>oh no you have to follow my posting rules
What he said is that Ab major/ionian had the same notes as C phrygian.
Yes the notes/scale shapes are the same, but you want to remember your root is C

i discourage starting on strats because the fretboard radius is pussy mode for bar chords
get a cheaper les paul, SG, or ibanez style guitar. they have a fretboard radius more like an acoustic and strats normally come with 9s while those all normally come with 10s. if you can play a gibson style guitar well you can play a strat better (but sound worse because that's just what strats do).

>What year is it? I just woke up from a coma.
You know way back when in the time of boomers, when electric guitars first came out, rock wasn't cool. Rock was for kids. They'd grow out of it. And then a generation later, old people were complaining about the new rock and saying "just get a darn gretsch and play some real rock and roll"
That's where we are now. The shredders got older, but their taste in guitars didn't travel back in time to meet the standards of the last generation.
Starts out strong. I like it. It sounds fine, but the part from around 20 seconds on sounds weaker to me than the way you started the solo. I think thirds and sixths (inverted thirds) are among the most "melodic" sounding intervals, so maybe target them over the chord changes and then get back into a tasty pentatonic/blues lick to end.
James Clark
>Lol give up and find another hobby Snobbery, I bet you use tone knobs too
