There is literally nothing wrong with extended range guitars
Brayden Johnson

r8 my hektik as fuck soldering skills, /gg/
Ryder Allen

Henry Roberts
I'm pretty sure you have way too much bare wire there, it's not going to hold that well if it moves around. Can't give you any advice on soldering itself, I'm really bad at it.
Ryder Campbell
also, are there any side effects if someone inhales a fair amount of solder smoke? just asking for a friend hahah
Christopher Sullivan
Yeah I'm gonna do a second take tomorrow if the replacement set of pickups get delivered on time. I'll try to cut the end that looks like a spaghetti and maybe wrap the rest of the wire with an electric tape or something
Gabriel Walker
if you have asthma, they can trigger a crisis otherwise no, lead's not going to be in fumes unless you heat the solder past 450°C. At least that's what they say on the packaging of mine.
Charles Cooper
Been playing 7's for about 5 years now. Have 3, this is my most recent one, plays amazingly. Single Lundgren in the bridge. I'm not a huge fan of 8's personally but they have their place for some styles.
Jeremiah Ortiz
What type of girl would each guitar model be?
Elijah Robinson
that's hot
Christopher Garcia
lp - nice, cute girl you see her on the street strat - average girl, everyone has had a turn with her though tele - high school crush hollow body - smooth and sexy, intelligent sg - same as hollow body last three - alt type sluts
Ryder Morgan
>lead jack is loose on my tele thinline >if i had a regular tele i could just unscrew the knob plate to to tighten it >instead i have to unscrew the whole pickguard to get in there

Caleb Barnes
I've been playing guitar for a few months now.
How do I into pickups and all those other effects?
Henry Myers
pickups aren't effects, and don't worry about any of that shit until you've been playing around a year or so unless you have a lot of money
Juan Rodriguez
I have nothing else to spend my money on and I love guitar so far
all the artists I like use shittons of effects, so I'm not doing this to mask my shitty playing, I want a cool unique sound
I hope I don't appear to be wanting effects for the wrong reasons
Jason Harris
Well. Those aren't bad reasons, but getting too involved with effects and shit this early on in your playing can distract you from the actual playing. What sort of guitar+amp do you have?
Christian Bell
dean playmate and a cheap berhinger amp
I am trying to focus on the playing but I want to start dabbling with creating different sounds
Jaxon Taylor
You might want to get a better guitar and amp first. That guitar is 3/4 size, meant for kids, man.... A lot of pedals will just sound like shit through a shit amp too
Juan Davis
I don't know shit about pedals so I'll ask here. Why does my fuzzbox destroy batteries? It uses 9 volts and I only get a few hours out of it.
Thomas Powell
Do you leave it plugged in when you're not using it? If you don't unplug your pedals they'll still drain the batteries.
Isaiah Ortiz
Save your money for a better guitar and amp and worry about effects later, and/or you could get a used POD and create a lot of effects in the meantime on the cheap and it can point you in the direction to which effects/pedals you want to invest in rather than wasting money in unused gear.
Brandon Scott
>I want a cool unique sound Looking for 'unique' is some special snowflake shit. No one tried to be unique ever. Shit was either broken, or someone was just screwing around in the moment. If you think someone has a unique tone, it's probably because you haven't heard anyone else using it yet.
Also using a 'unique' tone always will get monotonous and boring
Are you leaving it plugged in when not using it? I stopped using batteries a while ago, but I'm pretty sure that was a big cause for battery drain
Christopher Campbell
Is it safe to assume that everything made in Matsumoku is worth my money?
Hudson Martinez
fuck, I just started to take the battery out
Colton Jones
really? wow thats disappointing, it was actually my little brothers but he never bothered picking it up. Should I save up and buy something killer, since I'm certain I want to stick with this, or just get something in the 400 dollar range?
yeah, I guess I should work on better gear first
would you guys have any recommendations for what kind of gear I should look into

Thomas Parker
This guy walks up to your girlfriend and slaps her on the ass. What do you do?
Josiah Rivera
at least I know now, thank
Elijah Jenkins
>your girlfriend I wake up.
John Wright
>using a guitar made in fucking Box Hill Tell him the asian girls are that way
Anthony Bell
>and/or you could get a used POD and create a lot of effects in the meantime on the cheap and it can point you in the direction to which effects/pedals you want to invest in I was gonna say this. It worked out really well for me. I've heard good things about the zoom multi effects too. A guitar you'd be happy with in the long run would easily be doable in like 300-600 dollar range. Since you were asking about pickups I'm guessing you don't know too much about guitars though
Camden Anderson
I'm gay.
Christian Ortiz
women suck anyways also sick fvcking trips
Jackson Kelly
what is his height/weight?
Dominic Mitchell
brown eyed girl
Jace Taylor
lp would be the polished, pretty, bodacious girl, v glamourous, high maintenance, etc
tele would be the qt3.14159 girl next door, intelligent, has the same taste in music as you, more of a 'real girl'
strat would be the bubbly, bouncy athletic type
hollowbody would be the milf prof at your local uni, smooth, curvy, well read
sg would be party girl version of the lp, little more rauchy, slutty, kinky
agree with these for last 3
Isaiah Murphy
5'10, 180lbs
Caleb Russell
Push him to to the ground, if he gets back up and takes a swing or tries to tackle me then i knock his ass out. Serious question?
Leo Robinson
any /gg/ers play piano? i wanna learn for the theory gains and to play some boogie woogie
cant decide between piano or banjo though. i love to play banjo but dont really have a big catalog of banjo music to learn, whereas with piano there's so much to learn but it's going to be a much steeper learning curve to play.
Nathan Rodriguez
me too m8 let's start a band
Nathan Ramirez
do you play stoner/doom/sludge
Jackson Phillips
do u live in a stand-your-ground or duty-to-retreat state?
Bentley Thompson
>v >slut Her legs are already spread bro
Charles Green
Lol
Gavin Harris
i ask him how to solo jazz guitar then
Isaiah White
Piano, trust me it's worth it. Play bass but learning guitar was pretty helpful in getting more into theory and creating music. The learning curve isn't that steep, then again I spend probably 4-6 hours a day practicing on either instrument. Really though go piano, it's fun and gets pussy wet
Chase Rogers
Yes I love it, but only euro doom. >stoner/sludge so you like rednecks? are you gay for real lol
Oliver Jackson
so... britain? lol
just cuz if your jurisdiction has a duty to retreat, you *legally* have to flee at the earliest available opportunity, eg after you push him down
Jonathan Rogers
damn, i always knew piano was a panty dropper.
so expensive though, was thinking of a yamaha p115 as it seems to be the recommended beginner board
Jose Gomez
I'm Israeli, I like stuff like Mastodon, High on Fire and 70s Sabbathy stuff.
Jeremiah Martinez
Lol cause no matter what I say you're going to follow it up with some reference to something you read on the internet that you have no real world experience with.
Quit assuming where I live, the world is larger than 2 countries.
Cameron Kelly
>I'm Israeli fuck off crazyaga
Oliver Peterson
I got lucky and inherited an old full sized keyboard from my grandpa who played spic tunes on it all the time. Although at guitar center the cheapest full sized is $150 so it's kinda pricey but not too bad. Hopefully once I have a place of my own and have a big boy job I can afford an actual piano
Daniel Roberts
I don't know who that is.
Connor Hernandez
maybe u should quit making assumptions about me, ya jerk. maybe im a lawfag tryna prevent a /gg/er from making a big mistake
Lol
Lol
Lol
Lol
Lol
:^)
Austin Watson
>gay >Israeli >posting in /gg/
I wonder who this could possibly be
Samuel Watson
Not what i said, at all, obviously not a law student because they actually have to language.
Gabriel Nguyen
Ah. I see let's coin our gay doom metal act's name Skeleton in the Closet Gaping Grave Sodom Rising
Chase Rogers
I'm just a gay dude that plays power chords.
Aaron Wilson
Sodom Rising sounds really good.
Sebastian Thomas
>actually have to language
in my studies, ya. u think im spending time on usage, grammar and syntax for u? ha!
Anthony Reyes
Sodom Emerging would be a better play on words
Andrew Evans

Could I use a big muff or small clone with my cheap boss pedalboard without damaging them? I see a guy with a few of them for sale near me.
Isaiah Harris
What do you think of the Swollen Pickle? I have an EHX big muff and I've been looking around for a different type of fuzz pedal.
Leo Cook
Secret to good gain is dialing your volume knob back and adding a touch of reverb.
You're welcome.
Hudson Bell
do you know any games that will help me learn music theory, chords, develop ear for music etc? maybe something that works with midi keyboard? android, pc, doesn't matter >inb4 rocksmith I'm trying perfect ear for android but maybe you know something more fun
Grayson Turner
Why? Learning from the book/online videos/teachers will help you more than any game. That and I doubt any games out there would help you in that sense, most of those games are just something to keep your fingers moving
Hudson Williams

Adrian Fisher

Adrian Perry
yeah but sometimes you have to take something and give it a time to memorize or practice (and my bass isn't at home for example). you won't recognize what scale is played by ear after watching a video or reading a book. I do already watch 2 bass players teachers and am going through one PDF (Progressive Bass Guitar by Gary Turner and Brenton White - good one or bad?)
nope. keep trying
Connor Davis
Beginner here, my (mex) Tele keeps nosing down as if it was neck heavy. What Im I doing wrong?
Jacob Myers
My new baby, what do you guys think of her?
James Taylor
>implying gain has anything to do with reverb and volume
Lincoln Hughes
The Swollen Pickle is based off of a Big Muff, the two internal knobs let you change the tone to be way different than a Big Muff though. It's a pretty cool pedal, I like using it with some gain on the amp too. You can also use it to fatten up the sound without really making it too fuzzy, so you can use your normal distortion sound on the amp, but with more volume and less gain on the pedal. It can be hard to find a usable tone because of how many knobs there are on the pedal, so id recommend starting with all the knobs (internal too) set to the middle, once you decide how much volume and fuzz you want you can start fiddeling with the filter knob, then move on to the crunch and scoop knobs which add/remove fizz and scoop out highs.
John Morgan
Why did you stick a tea-try in your guitar?
Anthony Davis
That's why you come up with your own methods, write down what scales you want to memorize, record the scale you play and try to memorize how it sounds. At least that's how I did it. I work at a grocery store so whenever it wasn't busy I had a paper with whatever scale I was studying at the time and would go over it in my head while looking at the paper whenever I needed help.
Cameron Sanders
cut the headstock off
Sebastian Young
biscuit cones are better.
Ayden Lopez
plz halp
Xavier Gomez
>implying volume won't affect saturation >implying a touch of reverb doesn't add a little extra bite
Try it. Get a guitar with a single volume, pickup, and jack and see how many different types of gain you can get out of it.
Wyatt Morales
i love rompeprop
Ryan Rodriguez
>gain
Juan Bell
I have both tube and solid state, i have tried pedals, onboard, and speaker breakup. Gain is gain. It is what it is and it's easily controlled. I prefer my Peavey Deuce for out loud playing. It gets less saturated and has headroom for days. It also takes efx p well.
I mainly play slow and clean now. I'm also mainly a drummer at this point.
Just throwing it out there for people who throw their knobs to 10.
William Lopez
Pretty sure you mean overdrive, or breakup, but your know-it-all wank is so vague it's hard to tell.
Gain is an electronics term; it doesn't mean how \m/ R O C K \m/ your tone is. Volume controls aren't gain (with exceptions), and most Reverbs have no control over the input/output gain.
Modded big muff for boss power adapter, good deal?
Kevin Allen
Gain weight and have a belly to balance your guitar on
Aiden Walker
any advice on ergonomics, posture and so? I have a problem with posture and tension (body tension, I can't relax, I fuck my shoulder when trying to play fast). this could sound as a joke, but it's actually stopping me
Dominic Brown
i kinda want to start writing some southern doom. basically if stranglehold or freebies had been written by black sabbath. what are some bands i can look up, scales/chords i can practice, and pedals to look out for? and any other advice
i think serpent throne would be kinda close, but there's not much southern twang to them.
Colton Collins
Have you listened to Alabama Thunderpussy? They might be a bit more sludge than doom, but it's southern.
Aiden Perry
>southern doom So, Earth, but heavier?
Robert Sanders
Finished the gloss on my pedalboard yesterday. Let it dry overnight and threw what I had on top. >pic related I wanted to add velcro strips across the beams, though I think my pedals will still go flying everywhere in transport. Purchasing a couple more pedals and I'll be stringing everything together with twine.
post boards
William Murphy
>Southern doom
Just ape Down and mid period Corrosion of Conformity. For scales you're looking at the blues scale and harmonic minor.

Any thoughts on the Epiphone 1966 G-400? Picking one up for $200 today.
