Anyone else here build and play cigar box guitars? I've been doing it in my spare time for fun and extra money. Whenever the GF and I go hiking I carry one with me.
Jackson Richardson
If I put jaguar pickups on my jazzmaster will I die of being gay?
Evan Myers
i hate really ornate guitars with all those layers but thats kinda a beaut
Christian Thomas
It would be extremely painful.
Logan Rogers
What would be the best pickups to install in an Epiphone Les Paul to make it better?
What kind of aftermarket pickups do professional musicians use on les paul guitars?

>go to talent show tryouts at my high school today >School hired a professional sound engineer to set up a huge speaker system >4 stage monitor, 6 4x12 vertical PA speakers, and a 4 Subwoofer/woofer speakers >Guy plugs my 6505mh in with the straight to PA XLR output and EQ's everything to perfection >Entire fucking gym shakes when I palm mute and the fucking leads sound insane >I've literally never played anything other than my 2x12 in my bedroom until now
It was amazing lads, It was like playing Wacken. I think tomorrow is going to be fun
Justin Jackson

Les pauls look nasty and rocking yet classy and beautiful
Hudson King

Asher Allen
When will Fender reissue the Performer?
Isaiah Stewart
Just buy an OG they're not that expensive, if Fender did reissue them they would cost around the same.
Liam Lee
Pretty great. Like having a best friend that cooks for you and lets you fuck them .

Xavier Johnson

Maybe take a bunch of Adderall and spend all day practicing.
Matthew Johnson

Caleb Anderson

Carson Price

Andrew Martin
Is it even worth this much?
Jordan Stewart

Bentley James

Samuel Lewis
No. Don't do it if the music you want to play uses an electric
Ryder Ward
...
Juan Jackson
HA
Jeremiah Thompson
No that's a meme pushed by retards who only play grandpa chord strumming songs
William White
How do people play hammer-ons so fast with their ring and pinky? My middle/index fingers have a decent speed/dexterity but my ring and pinky are way too slow and uncoordinated. They often get too far away from the fretboard (involuntarily) and can't really hit any notes fast enough, and they'll miss the string at least 1/3 of the time.
Daniel Bell
is it westone or ibanez
Bentley Harris
Finger independence exercises and years of practice.
Nicholas Ward
yes, Fender Performer is not only a rare collectible, but also it's good, with its tremolo and unique pickups
Levi Bennett
who /MIJ/ here?
currently have MIJ jaguar lusting after a Yamaha SG
Lucas Edwards
LP, tele and jazzymasty desu.
Tyler Butler
>Finger independence exercises
What are some good ones for this kind of thing?
Jace Collins
>Buy my amp for those sweet djent tones! Made in China and only $1900! Sounds just like your favorite amp, the 5150!
Yeah, that's about it. They get loud through an actual cab, but I don't much care for it's actual tone.
Landon Howard
oranges sound bad and have shitty lowmids
Daniel Reed
That's a good price for one
Cooper Flores
I agree outside of the Thunderverb 200. One of the best amps I've played through
Owen Perry
forgot pic
Michael Jones
Stuff dreams are made of
Easton Price
how do you transcribe chords?
seeing as there's an awful lot of substitutions etc. do i just have to try and find it?
transcribing melody is kinda fun but chord sequences is dildos
Asher Clark
Keep index on 5, middle on 6, ring on 7, pinky on 8 for everything. Use a metronome and keep it slow and steady to build up the technique. Focus on keeping your fingers close to the fretboard and your hand as loose as possible - excess tension and movement will kill speed
Jason Taylor
What you got in that there rack case?
Thomas Morgan
If you think wood doesnt affect the tone of a guitar but pick material and thickness does you're a fucking retard
Luke Bennett
I literally know that you came from reddit, please return
Charles Johnson
>this guys pointed out a flaw in muh fallacy, he must be from reddit!
Kill yourself, im from 9gag
Evan Young
Fedex tracking says my Strat'll probably be here tomorrow. Here's hoping it's not shit.
Benjamin Taylor
Nothing special. Korg tuner, BBE 362, and DBX 266XL
Adam Cox
best pair of 1/4" jack headphones for plugging into an audio interface? looking for something noise cancelling.
Hudson Lopez

Thomas Hernandez
Maple boards > everything else
Eli Kelly
genuinely true desu. i saw the absolute worst band the other week playing dad rock shit with solos and everything and the lead guitarist was using a les paul
Alexander Foster
Got a 70s lawsuit Ibanez Les Paul custom goldtop.
Michael Morales
What? Most good headphones come with an adapter.
Levi Ramirez
I also like ebony to be perfectly honest, but I can't understand the love for rosewood.
Jack Walker
Hey. Is there a resource like this for improvisation: Like a description of what goes through your head while you're doing it? I've learned some things about chord tone playing and so in a simplified way, what I am doing right now might be:
anticipate the chord coming up locate a root, third and fifth of that chord find a way to, from where I am now, land on one of those notes in the first downbeat of the new chord play some notes in a scale that sounds appropriate over that chord, going back to the chord tones during downbeats anticipate the next chord coming up
But I'm looking for something more fleshed out. In order to better direct my practice, to isolate the different steps involved and mental shortcuts people use. I can find lots of "licks to memorize", "shapes of scales to memorize" and then actual theory, but I want more of like something that ties it together and directs your practice.
Matthew Gutierrez
If you want to get good at improvising, just improvise more often. Just play over backing tracks over and over again, trying different things.
Look at Dimebag for example. Chromatic scale wankery with some blues pentatonic thrown in is what he made his living on.
should I get back into guitar? this is where I stopped
Robert Johnson
I've made several
Super fun and satisfying
Ryder Jackson
I agree. I haven't played acoustic in years, but after building a few I started playing slide again and I realized how much I was missing out on. It helps that I collect cigars and have woodworking and guitars as a hobby. I don't have to buy anything to build them.
Xavier Edwards
Hey how do I improve upon using my fingers when playing acoustic. I have this habit of just plucking all the strings with my thumb and I realize it isn't right and not necessarily convenient. Is it a matter of just practicing slowly and a certain angle your hand is meant to be placed at when you pluck?
Ayden Diaz
Try anchoring your thumb on your bottom string and only using it for the E and A strings. Only allow your fingers to pick.
Xavier Wilson
he was so cute..
Zachary Young
Most fun i've had making an instrument was my 6 string one. Felt like Bo Diddley.
And yea, thankfully the boxes are super cheap
Mason Walker
Umf.
Ryan Cruz
Ive yet to make a sixer. That's something I need to do. I've been making 3 strings and keeping them in open tuning for slide noodling
Jack Collins
I've installed Peavey Revalver 4 and it beats the fuck out of Line6 and most other amp sims, these Peavey models are just too good, which is surprising considering the fact that revalver is barely known and its rivals are super popular.
Jack Bell
I'd marry him, n-no homo..
Carson Jackson
Same.

Do something because you enjoy it, not because others enjoy you doing it. I don't give a shit what you do with your life
Hunter Cruz
FUCK YOU TRY STARTING AT 32 I FUCKING WISH I WAS AS YOUNG AS YOU AND HAD ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD TO LEARN GUITAR FUCK YOU JUST DO IT REEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Anthony Turner
There exists a chart comparing all guitar loop pedals that I can't seem to find right now it is very exhaustive if not potentially outdated. Does anyone have the link? (It's not a Sup Forums chart just a web page).
Dylan Davis
yeah
Isaac Anderson
I don't get how anyone could want to play guitar but wait til he was 32 before trying. I mean, if you'd really wanted to learn you would have started long ago.
Matthew Reed
hey /gg/ I've been playing guitar for about 6 months but I've been considering learning bass. So what's different about learning bass vs regular guitar?
