gibson sg faded 2016 yes or no? i know its muh gibson and toan wood but i genuinely like the, look and sound they have
Levi King
can I have permission to make a purchase? I'm too dumb to make my own decisions and really should be in permanent foster care or a mental institution.
Joseph Turner
fender strat yes or no? i dont want to buy a squire or an epi lp because people seem to like jazz here.
Isaac Hall
I like rocks what guitar should I buy?
Thomas Brown
wasting money on brand name goods yes or no? I'm extremely self conscious about looking successful and I'm incapable of assigning value to things without the assistance of a marketing department. I get offended when somebody suggests the conclusion I came to as a result of marketing was misled.
Sebastian Brooks
Its a nice playing sg. If you get one on sale its a killer price
Elijah Flores
i like blue should i buy a blue guitar or brown (nigger) one?
James Johnson
You have my permission to go suckyourself to somewhere else.
Camden Bell
You can "jazz" on any guitar. You can play anything on any guitar, it's just a matter of knowing how to
Matthew White

Also there are no dumb questions. But a word of advice to anyone looking making a purchase: Follow your gut and what you first set your eyes on. Don't let the cheap anons on here convince you to buy knock offs and chink shit. You will only end up unhappy, or not as satisfied as you could be. Buy what appeals to you on first sight and playing.
Lucas Bailey
What tube amp should I buy for crystal clear cleans? I don't want any saturation or distortion. Must cost at least $900. Must be all tube and at least 200 watt. Will mostly be playing with headphones.
David Roberts
thanks user
Jonathan Cox
>What tube amp should I buy for crystal clear cleans? Not a tube amp
Jaxon Smith
they've got a jazz band at my son's school, they have a gibson sg and a p. bass, along with one marshall and a peavey. they made it work. you can probably make it work too
Aiden Ward
Following your gut is absolutely the most idiotic way to spend your money I can think of apart from the lotto.
Jack Carter
Post red flags when condition auditions for a new guitarist in your band >solid state amps >active pickups >over 22 frets >fanned frets >multi-scale >matte, stain, swirl or faded finish >fat or ugly >poorly dressed >smelly
Gavin Cook
>not willing to give up the boipussy to the whole band
That's the only one for me.
Owen Davis
>his guitar has active pickups
Daniel Allen
This is bait, everyone. Hate to have to point out obvious bait but I really don't feel like watching newfags rage right now.
Noah Lopez
>pretending to be your own father Yeah, no. Underage get out.
How is it bait if it's a personal red flag? I agree with half of those
Brody Kelly
Underaged posters are probably being dragged by their parents to some barbeque or something. I think we can be a bit sarcastic for the moment without worrying about triggering the children.
>better looking then me >louder amps then me >is a cunt >is shite
Mostly just have problems with the last two.
Logan Evans
>better looking then me >louder amps then me A-are you the bassist?
Samuel Rivera
Shit, you caught me out
Jeremiah Reed
>he plays a Martin
Hudson Cook
Kek remember the user from a few months back who tried defending playing with a guy who wouldn't take showers? Then he got butthurt when people said they wouldn't play with ugly guitarists.
Jeremiah Gray
>Too poor to afford one.
Sorry bruh
Sebastian Jackson
whats wrong with faded finishes
Asher Ramirez
What the guy was saying is that he would only play guitar with someone who has a gloss finish
Jacob Bennett
To amp guy: A tube amp responds more and better to the dynamics of your playing so if you strum hard, it sounds louder. There's also much more overtones and a bit more transparency in chords. On the flipside, it's less forgiving of bad playing (which is why many beginners and bad players favor transistors).
Elijah James
The guy who didn't take showers came up after that user tried to defend some guy. Anyways this is getting too meta for healthy discussion.
Lucas King
They literally make their guitars out of particle board.
Ethan Barnes
That orange amp supposedly emulates these characteristics of tubes, so I think it should be fine. Thanks for the heads up though!
Worst case scenario, I order it from thomann, don't like it, return it and get the marshall
Juan Perry
>tube amps compress less than solid state amps
Ian Williams
This has to be bait. Please tell me it's bait.
Eli Hall
Not him, but is this not true? When I switch over to my tube amp I find my mistakes are a lot more noticeable. Maybe it's just with smaller practice solid state amps that it compresses more?
Oliver Scott
Does anyone know of any acoustic finger style PDF lessons? It'd help a lot.
Alexander Morris
>A tube amp responds more and better to the dynamics of your playing so if you strum hard, it sounds louder that's compression >There's also much more overtones that's bollocks >it's less forgiving of bad playing (which is why many beginners and bad players favor transistors). that's also bollocks
I think tubes compress at a lower threshold, with a ratio that increases with the amplitude and trans amps don't compress until you get close to clipping, and then they compress much harder then a tube amp. And tubes are more soft knee, and trans are more hard knee.
John Adams
yes i got that, but why? whats wrong with satin finishes
James Mitchell
What can /gg/ tell me about BKP Blackhawks?
Jace Walker
Just practice. You're not doing it right until you have blisters from practicing so much.
Matthew Cook
I do, I practice a lot. I just need practice material, like new things to practice.
Carson Harris
Don't listen to this guy. If you don't turn up the volume too much on a tube amp you get an awesome clean sound.
Dominic Richardson
Nothing. Musicians are picky assholes
Angel Lee
>f you don't turn up the volume too much on a tube amp you get an awesome clean sound.
If you're idea of "awesome" is muffled and shite, that's a fair assessment
Camden Reed
Nice opinion bro
Xavier Hughes
Just refinished this early 80s Electra x630n P Bass copy. Got it for $20 at a garage sale. It had some stain or paint spilled across the body but it cleaned up pretty easily.
Joshua Hill
And they still sound better than most guitars in their price range. Construction/bracing etc is just as important as wood used.
Lincoln Anderson
it depends on the amp, m8
Joseph Morales
Nothing really wrong with them I guess, but they're typically a cheap-out cost-saver on the part of the manufacturer. They do slowly get shiny spots as your hand grease gets on the body.
Josiah Sanchez
any other good deals you got from the garage sale? How much was the tele?
Julian Sanchez
Fuzz, Distortion or Overdrive? What's better, /gg/?
Eli Roberts
Do drugs make you a better musician? I just started playing
Charles Cruz
I play thrash and think distortion is for leads, punk or black metal wouldn't really use a pedal on a clean amp if you're playing any fast metal as the pedal will have a hard time tracking like an amp. I use an overdrive in front of an overdiven amp with either a compressor or TS spark for the leads.
Brody Morris
No. Boutique pedals do.
Mason Garcia
This is what I've got, how do I shoegaze? Also have £350 I can spend on gear.
Tyler Cooper
What Telecaster is that? It looks pretty
Hudson Smith
>fuzz pedal >reverb pedal >various effect pedals >all the volume
Ethan Stewart
its just a fender mexican standard tele in midnight wine. nothing to special about it.
Justin Robinson
>wood, stone or steel, what's better /diy/ any of them's valid you turd, there's no better between different options
drugs just make you less cautious. being good's partly a matter of balls. You can't be good if you're just sitting around in a corner playing safe things
>wouldn't really use a pedal on a clean amp if you're playing any fast metal as the pedal will have a hard time tracking like an amp. Sounds like someone never listened to swedish death metal. Also distortion for lead is a terrible idea unless you want to go from crystal clear to the pedal's minimal settings
Caleb Hill
Thoughts?
Christian Cooper
nice trips any suggesions on what pedal brands to look out for?
Brody Turner
meme guitar
John Hernandez
IT'S FUCKING PARTICLE BOARD
Julian Jenkins
I see what you are saying, but the type of music I play isn't really supposed to sound as muddy like swedish death
Brandon Clark
>chapman
'no'
Nicholas Ross
If you want to stay on the affordable side, Boss pedals can do the job, as can any pedal brand like Electro-Harmonix or TC Electronics MXR. But if you like boutique pedals: >Earthquaker Devices >Dwarfcraft Devices >Devi Ever FX >Death by Audio >Noisemaker Effects >Chase Bliss Audio >Strymon >Old Blood Noise Endeavors >Mantic Effects >Smallsound/Bigsound >Walrus Audio
Josiah Campbell
Do you think it's a wise choice to buy a guitar where the company's "icon" is a fat retard who's only ability lies in fast scale runs ? They're just schecters in a drag, sure they're less gaudy, but they're also pricier.
>muddy like swedish death if anything, swedish death metal's the opposite of muddy, way too much high end in the guitar's sound.
Nolan Robinson
It's special to me
Jeremiah Long
But they sound so nice in the videos.
Julian Clark
The Ghost Fret looks sick
Eli Robinson
Run a first act through a dual rectifier, throw some studio magic on it, and it'll sound nice too. It won't change that it plays like shit, and needs too much fine tuning to sound good. Never trust the internet on any kind of instrument review, most of them are complete ass.
Nolan Jackson
nice finish but still looks like an eww mishmash between an explorer and an esp ex
Parker Rodriguez
you're special to me
Austin Brown
Nah you're a faggot
Luke Moore
user.. I...
Colton Allen
They're the best guitars you can get for the money.
Julian Lee
I want to get a strandberg, what's the difference between the OS and the custom shop? Is the quality that much of a 1500 difference
What is the waiting list wait for a MTM strandberg?

Ethan Adams
>anime reaction image >doesn't know shit about sound No surprises here
it's not on the list but you can add a proco rat pedal for more added distortion
Aiden James
the one you're competent with. Reaper is cheap enough to be worth learning on, and just as powerful as anything else.
Camden Harris
Their necks are very well made
Logan Nelson
>Never trust the internet on any kind of instrument review, most of them are complete ass. This. Also applies to buttmad debbie downer elitists or negative nancys on sites like Sup Forums. Read some reviews from people who've actually touched one, and go to the store and try it yourself.
Christopher Gutierrez
>go to the store and try it yourself
I don't know of anyone in California that sells them
Anthony Carter
Cool.I don't suppose you've tried one of there bodies have you?
Benjamin Young
No, I just bought a neck as a replacement. I can only guess that the quality would be the same.
Josiah Jones
I'm a complete amature who has never played an instrument in their life, and I wanna learn to play Bass. Is Ibanez a good brand, and are there any lesson plans online that you guys recommend?
Carter James
They're one of the best value low-end brands for bass. I started on a MIM P Bass for $250 and that also served me well for years.
Jack Adams
What pedals are used to get that washy sound 2:50 in?
Ibanez is good. Yamaha is also very good at the entry-level range. I'd recommend either of them over Squier if you're on a budget but especially Yamaha.
I don't know of any good online courses but the Hal Leonard Bass Method complete series can be gotten off of Amazon for about $15USD and is superb. It won't make you a master, but getting all the way through it would give you the tools to be a very, very good bassist.
Dominic Diaz
Kek. California? Or just near you... California is pretty big. Well, i know i probably won't want to travel more than 90 mins to try a guitar, so i get what you're saying. The way music shops are so scarce now I'd jusy do a bunch of research. If you find dozens of "eh, wasn't what i thought" reviews just avoid it. Just google (guitar you want) reviews. The more you read the better idea you'll get.
