A Yamaha or fender acoustic will do Go Danelectro if you don't want to break the bank for a decent electric
Jack Garcia
Nigga if I sold American and European organs for a living I'd spend it on stuff that actually looked nice and not some Rondo flame maple top. Pic Related 1963 Firebird $2,335 or in Brazilian currency a Heart, 2 livers and a 2 kidneys

Price range and styles you'd like to get into please. I'd say an HSS Mexican Strat or an HH Strat that you can learn to upgrade to an HSS
Cooper Gomez
Just finished half an hours practise
I've been playing guitar for 6 months now, I've been feeling a little burnt out lately so I posted in one of theses threads yesterday and people gave me some advice. I tried it out today and it helped but still what advice would you give someone in my situation?
Also, here's my Squire "telecaster", people call me a faggot for owning one but honestly it's just endearing me to it more. But feel free to (you) me, it just gets me off.
Also, I really really want to buy guitar pedals but I have to save my money for university. But if I were to buy pedals which ones are one you reckon everyone should own???
Nathan Wood
I can't hear you over my Nash and Kelton Swade guitars running through my Tone Kings and Victoria amps
Carter Murphy
>people call me a faggot for owning one
tell them to eat shit. at least you got a proper guitar design rather than some pleb strat
never get a strat. they are all shit.
Blake Harris
Dumb frog poster.
Nathan Cooper
It's because you have a Humbucker in the neck faggot, Teles are know to have the best neck sound
Connor Morris
Hey, the RG9 isn't roman, I'm just very dedicated to posting that guitar every thread because someone doesnt like it.
>call me a faggot everyone's a faggot. >But if I were to buy pedals which ones are one you reckon everyone should own??? the only pedal you'll ever NEED is a tuner. If your amp's loud enough, try to get some gigs and use gig money to buy gear.

Hi Ethan
Jackson Howard
nah, teles are way more well known for the bridge sound
i plan on putting a p90 in my tele because the neck just isn't doing it for me
Jaxon Perez
I don't want to buy electro and pay more than 200₺ which is about 65 dolars
Kevin Morgan
Still found you goyim
Jayden Cox
try Cort, they're really versatile and great guitars for the price. I spent 300$ on my first one and still use it 7 years later. I play jazz/blue and rock/metal and it's great for both. Better than buying a shitty Fender or somehting
James Diaz

Noah Torres
I think its just a Sup Forums thing people calling me a faggot for memcasters, all guitars are memes at this point, I like how it looks and how it sounds, doesn't mean much cos I've got a shit ear but hey ho, I'm the one playing/paying for it
They had that model in the store for £30 ($40), should I have got that one???
Descent shout, still I don't reckon I'm quite ready to play a gig >tfw no band
Hello, Why do people keep calling me Ethan???
Alexander Cruz
nope, not bait
strats are dogshit guitars
Juan Flores
they're really overrated imo, but i wouldnt say theyre dogshit
Jonathan Torres
they are uncomfortable and annoying to play
literally dogshit
Austin Roberts
Nice, is that a real floyd rose or a knock off stock brand? I also like the thin paint layer.
Oh ya, and be prepared for some grandpa making fun of you just because you didn't fall for the fender/gibson meme
Henry Baker
how about the best of both worlds?
Camden Turner
>I also like the thin paint layer ;____; pls no bully
Nicholas Harris

Teles are a pretty good starter guitar. You'd probably like it Defiently see if you can play it in store and see if you like the way it sounds
Chase Lee
just put some wax over it or strip off he entire satin finish

This. If you can't get it done with an Esquire then you can't get it done, pack it up and go home.
Jonathan Phillips
>Mfw Sorry mate, my mistake
Isaac Cox
It's cool. You should get a Gibsno or a Fendre instead though, maybe even an Ibanze if you're into shredding.
Matthew Morris
oh ethan
Chase Collins
I like the look of the Gibsons and the Ibanze but cash is tight, I told myself no more new gear till I'm in a band and I know what kind of stuff I should get
Any time people want to explain why I'm being called Ethan??? I know its new faggish of me but hey ho
Bentley Jenkins
Whoah is that really only $2335? I thought non-reverse firebirds were way more valuable?

Mason Russell
If my guitar is set for standard e tuning, will using different tunings warp the neck?
Asher Sullivan
It will change the tension, it shouldn't warp it though unless you use some absolute retard tuning where you should have changed to custom gauges anyways.
Carter Nguyen
This isn't always true. There's a guy that does customs in my neck of the woods (Eastern Canada) that grants a great final product at a price a few hundred bucks higher than a deluxe Strat/Tele (but no taxes). He does beautiful inlays of almost any design, worked for Larivee, sources practically any wood you need, and is very communicable on what you need.
So it would probably be better to have specific guitars for specific tunings then? Or just use some piece of crap I guess
Christian Ortiz
>durr werp dur neck?!?
Andrew Nelson
How to fix action?
Thomas Nguyen
If you have a compound double truss, you could string your guitar with bass strings and the neck will stay true. I've been running FACGCF for almost a decade.
Jaxon Gomez
You can safely drop tune. If you want to use stuff like NST or whatever, use a separate guitar with custom gauges set for whatever tuning.
Thomas Scott
I'll warp your fucking neck in a minute you cunt
Jason Harris
hit neck with hammer until straight also works on faggots
Replying to my own post... It seems like the neck is bowed with the headstock facing up. Do I need to fuck with the truss rod.
Parker Phillips
Fix the bow in the neck, measure with a straightedge long enough for the entire neck. Have a lamp behind you so you can easily see. Adjust truss rod carefully. Break out a fitting Allen wrench and gently turn it clockwise to adjust neck backwards.
Good luck.
Hunter Stewart
I'll knock you upside the head with a hammer. Now fuck off and give me useful advice.
Henry Campbell
>durr furk wit thurs rod?!?!
Owen Peterson
Thanks. Should the neck be perfectly straight? Does it matter if my strings are on or not?
Grayson Cox
ah cool, thanks. That one looks pretty beat desu non original pickups + the neck break makes it a dealbreaker. Priced about right.
Landon Young
Haram
Ryan Sanders
It should be 100% straight or as close as possible. Keep the strings on and have it in tune.
Keep it in a playing position when you adjust. Pressure on the headstock when it's flat adds to the bow.
Justin Bell
set the truss rod first. google how to do it. that thing is bowed to hell. after you fix the bow, do the string action.
Brandon Cox
Thinking of getting a fretless as my first bass because I prefer the sound. Terrible idea? Also recommendations in the sub 500 range?
Ayden Nelson
yes you want the strings on and tuned to pitch. if you don't do this then you won't have any references for how the neck will be bowed when it's in tune.
you don't need straight edges or anything like that. all you need is some feeler gauges. once you know what you're doing you won't even need feeler gauges, you can just eye ball it.
Ryan Reyes
Anyone have any experience with the Abominable Electronics range of metal pedals?
I was thinking of picking up one of these.
Kayden Torres
If you're gonna do that, get one with lines where the frets would be. Otherwise you'll just be playing out of tune forever.
Aiden Turner
>Terrible idea? Yes.
Logan Thomas
Terrible idea if you're lazy. If you're critical of yourself and work on being accurate, not so much imo. Or just get a cheap fretted bass and defret it later.
Kevin Russell
>Anyone have any experience with the Abominable Electronics range of metal pedals? no you fucking idiot
Xavier Cook

Carson Garcia
I ordered a throne torcher a couple of days ago but I have no idea when I'm going to get it.
Ethan Harris
Their store front says delivery takes 4 - 6 weeks and no refunds if not broken, I'd love to try one out sometime.
Post pics when it arrives tho, I'd be interested in your opinion.
Michael Rodriguez
I had a Hail Satan. It was nothing special frankly. Their bass preamp is supposed to be incredible though.
Joshua Williams
Fuck of Guthrie your music is shit anyway Fuck i love those Tele customs, how much did that one cost you?

That would be the plan Percussionist and former music student who knows how to practice. I'd take it pretty seriously. Mostly looking to play bass to jam with myself anyways
Jaxon Bennett
Whats wrong with buying new?
Logan Murphy
technicality's highly overrated. has he ever written a good song? fuck no
Dominic Anderson
Have you used an instrument with timbre before? If you haven't extensively played strings, I don't recommend starting on fretless, even with good habits, unless you're under the guidance of a proper instructor.
Ryan Torres
>check reverb listings in my country >nothing but overpriced vintage garbage fuck's sake there's even someone selling a leather pick pouch for 350$ because it says gibson on it.
Easton Diaz
>You little cunt, i'll break your neck with my powerful fusion licks
Christian Sullivan
Hell yeah man, timpani is my jam. Lots of ear training though it's been awhile so I'd need to practice that too.
Ethan Reyes
yeah, but he's not all about technique, he does everything. Just because he's not a good songwriter doesn't mean he's a bad guitarist. I hate it when some boring fucker hears someone shredding and assumes that's all they do...
