Friendly reminder: the kiddies who post in /gg/ threads have nearly ***zero*** experience concerning guitar. Playing, repair, new player recommendations, etc. The average age in these threads is around early 20s: green as shit grass.
If you have an actual question this is probably one of the most uninformed & least knowledgeable places you could ever expect a proper answer to come from.
Be weary of any advice given here as it's amateur & perfunctory at best.
Have a nice day.

Sebastian Brooks
I only have experience as a bassist jamming with a pair of hand-drummers, but that was pretty cool. As long as I kept to the rhythm I could play pretty much whatever notes and it was good.

I play with a buddy who is a drummer. Some days we're on fire, other days were a cover band. Just depends on the mood I guess.

What are your local craigslist musicians ads like? Mine are 98% just middle aged people looking to play classic rock covers and country/southern rock. Also church musicians.

Well i just got my first guitar, squier strat from 2002, cost was the equivalent of $275 usd.
Two things i dont get are why are there two tone switches and what does that switch do?
Ayden Morris
Only if you get a real Gibson tonedildo.
Jason Bell
There are two tone pots and a pu selector switch, closest tone for the neck and middle, bottom for the bridge.
Gavin Scott

Nathan Turner
Epiphone Les Paul Standard PlusTop Pro or Ibanez FR365? Looking for something with the best build quality
Sebastian Rivera
I'd get the Ibanez.
Luke Torres
How do I store a guitar properly? My first guitar just sits in a stand at the moment, but since I don't play it very much I thought of storing it in its case. Should I take the strings of or will this warp the neck? New strings then pack it away?
Also how much would you demand when selling a near mint guitar? Bought an Ibanez a few months ago but thinking about selling it. 450 Euros was the original price, I thought of 400-450 Euros, case included.
Logan Harris
You can just have it sit on a stand; in large bands they just put them on a rack that goes in a large flight case until they need to be used.
Camden Allen
what If I need the space? I went on a massive GAS spree and now I own 4 guitars. I want to sell one, store one away (maybe to give it to someone worthy later on) and just use 2 guitars for my own playing.
Benjamin Young
didn't their singer throw a shit in the pit once ?
Matthew Myers
I hope someone photoshops him licking a dick instead
Andrew Lee
James....is that you?
Levi Myers
They're completely different, the LP is 24.75" with a rounder radius while the FR is 25.5" with a flatter radius. I'd get the Ibanez since I prefer the neck and they have a single coil in the neck instead of a second humbucker, which imo is not that great.
Juan Jones
Succ :D
Isaac Sullivan
Having them in their cases should be alright for storage provided no moisture gets in
Ayden Hill
the first switch is for the first 2 pickups and second is for the last 2
Ethan Myers
How much should a good setup cost? Is guitar center to be trusted with this task?
Justin Watson
>paying for something you can easily do yourself
Colton Davis
I'm literally just starting. I've had a guitar for 2 weeka. Would it really be easy enough for me to pull off? Ive heard restringing is a pain in the ass for most beginners and I dont want to fuck up my guitar by doing something retarded to the truss rod or something.
Jacob Bailey
Did you get the guitar new? Because any decent store I've been does a setup for every guitar they sell.
Jaxon Bell
>guitar center If you can't do it yourself (there are instructions all over the place), find a local tech who knows what they're doing.
Here, this guy knows what he's doing, restrings are a breeze. youtu.be/zGLMy6DbpBc
Ian Martin
guys i need help! i have a 27 inch scale length 8 string tuned to drop E (EBEADGBe) but the lower low E string is too flabby and quiet. what string gauge should i get for it? current is a .64
Luis Bell
If you're tuning to E, you need something really heavy, basses use .100 even though they have a longer scale lenght (but they have more tension on the strings). I wouldn't go under .80, that gives you 14.7lbs of tension, which is a 2 lbs less than a .46 string tuned to E on a 25.5" scale lenght.
Liam Butler
.46 tuned to a regular E, not a bass's E by the way.
Gavin Brooks
is .80 14.7? what would you recomend personally?
Hunter Sanders
According to the string tension calculator in the op, yes, .80 is 14.7lbs of tension, it might not be exactly that depending on which string brand you're using (.46 for d'addario prosteels is apparently 16.22 and not 17.5 for exemple). But yes, .80 should be fine. I can't recommend anything based on what I've played, because I don't own 8 strings, but I've heard people recommending buying a pack of 6 strings and two single bass strings. There's no absolute, if you think .80 is too much, go down, if you think it's not enough, go up.
Eli Scott
thanks friend! now i go to the guitar store
Brayden Brooks
I like it. Except the volvo hubcap. I have an old chevy poverty hubcap. I think it would be more appropriate.
David Rogers
A 90 gauge will give you 17.4lbs. Whether that'll fit through your bridge and tuner is another question.
Elijah Brown
>semi-hollow >EMG pickups
JUST
Charles Gomez
You paid $275 for that? Dude, they're $200 new.
Leo Rogers
depends. if it's just truss rod, stright height, and pickup height then it shouldn't cost more than $20-$30. if the guy has to start sanding and filing nut sluts/nut height, fixing electronics, and stuff like that on top of a typical setup i'd say $50-$75 is a fair price
i wouldn't trust guitar center with my shittiest guitar
Adrian Cooper
>not using a Vega hubcap
Asher Perry
Nah equivalent, as in i was converting to usd for simplicity sake
Leo Perry
>slacked off on my rhythm practice >bass teacher immediately noticed and yelled at me O-okay Senpai. /blog
Andrew Hughes
Let me explain this in a way you'll understand.
You paid the equivalent of $275 USD for a 14 year old beginner guitar.
Brand new versions sell for $200 USD.
In USD equivalent, you're kind of a dipshit.
David King
Shit's probably more expensive where he lives.
