what's your dream pedal?

mine is probably the empress reverb. I want it really bad but can't really justify dropping that much on a pedal.

anyone use a spoiler on their Bigsby?
is it worth it?

who /study fretboard and wala/ here?

>wala

>tfw no wala

you cant play guitar if you cant djent on acoustic

How many people are getting guitar presents on Christmas?

this

>no wala
>no fun

:(

I'm getting pedals, does that count?

w2c wala pedal?

>wanting to "djent" ever

legitimately looks like a bruised ballsack. the curls in the top look like lil capillaries and pubes.

>not wanting to djent 98% of the time
I bet your guitar has single coil pickups and you don't even have more than six strings

Why aren't companies making cat shaped guitars? I would buy one.

My Tele has single coils and six strings. My RG has humbuckers and a coil splitter, so there you go.

Also
>wanting anything more than 6 strings

...

n-no that's not what I meant...

...

kek

same senpai

>empress reverb

goddamn this thing sounds good, i'd never heard of it before this

I just found this guitar, holy Christ is it beautiful.

If single coils are bad then how come they still put em on guitars

guitarists have terrible taste.

Good question
There's literally no reason to have them when coil-tapping and coil-splitting exists

I'm getting a cheeky Vox Coily roily cabley

I bought myself This pedal for $130 after not gassing for anything for three months

They're not, I think they're the best sounding pickups,j ust wish they didn't hum.

right now I really want a Strymon Mobius.

What speakers should I get for my cabinet that I'm building? Looking at either vintage 30s or Eminence The Governor speakers

>Pic related is my head

What color to paint memeburst Strat?

So I've got a BOSS chromatic tuner pedal and I can't seem to get a proper tune with.

Whenever I first pick a string, the pedal reads high, and then as the note dissipates, it reads lower and lower. This is especially prevalent on the low E string.

Is this normal? If so, should I tune to what it reads when I first pick the string or to what it reads when the note evens out?

Even so, it seems that the tuner just fluctuates randomly, making it impossible to tune.

...

>memeburst
hate this meme, it's one of the better strat/jm finishes.

How many times do you guys change yr tubes? I'm planning on getting my first tube amp.

...

>>wanting anything more than 6 strings
12 strings :^)
Also while not necessarily useful, 7 strings are almost as easy to play.
Anything beyond 8 strings/courses is absolutely useless.

I've had both those speakers, they're pretty similar actually but the governor has a less harsh high-end and is a little less bassy.

I changed my speakers to Fryette P50E after hearing David Torn use them and I think they're way better than both, bassier, more articulate, less fizzy. Something you could consider too

It does this with me too. I usually play the harmonic on the 12th fret and that gives a better reading. Playing open notes tends to confuse the pedal for some reason.

Buy a custom built tele from Warmoth if you dont want to piss away $500 for a logo.

From what I remember you do it to whatever you pick the string at. I might be wrong though.

or buy a nip fender, have the logo and a great guitar for cheaper.

SURF MEME

This

used nip fenders can be had for really great prices

Tubes last about a year or two for me, I have a Super Champ x2 I bought new in February 2015 that's still going strong

>tfw see a mint 0001 strat style for £450
>didn't cop
kill me

Not that's a tasty meme, very nice.

Guitar noob here, thinking about getting my first floyd rose soon. Can string bends be effectively replaced by using the whammy bar? I only ask because I've heard bending strings on a floating trem will fuck everything up.

Does buying your own count?

If so, yes

So every year I have to change tubes?

ALL OF THE TUBES?

>Can string bends be effectively replaced by using the whammy bar? I

You could if you wanted to. Jeff Beck does that a lot.

>I've heard bending strings on a floating trem will fuck everything up.

Nah that's bullshit, but cheap trems will go out of tune easier so buy a nice one.

Usually just power tubes.
Pre tubes last longer

What brand of tubes do you buy? (((chinkshit)))?

One of the nice bass compressors. They're so expensive I haven't been able to pull the trigger on a purchase yet. That's about it. Maybe a sub synth and I'm thinking about buying the DOD Meatbox for that pretty soon.

I'm getting a new strap and a couple cables, but that probably doesn't count.

getting a joyo analog delay desu senpai

What up Chicagobro?

No don't buy cheap tubes

Are Sovtek tubes good? There are alot of Russian tubes here where I am from, any experience with them?

Do tubes just fizzle out like fuses & can they damage your amp while going out?

This doesn't look right. It's just wrong.

why does he look chinese

don't know about the new ones but they used to be the best, thanks to the USSR being so backwards in technology and export bans on computer parts.

Because he's got some in him. A grandmother or something, I can't remember.

how do you like it? i really want one of those amps and have been going back and forth whether or not i should get it.

also, what cable is that?

>mfw mods delete my thread

btfo desu
maybe you'll learn to include the subject next time

RIP best thread.

Russia stronk

How does that head work out for you? I was considering getting one for shits and giggles

Turquoise so it wears like this.

barf

Please no

Lol what is thattttt

JJs are usually pretty good.

Got some TAD EL34s in one of my amps that are great, and the Mullard 6L6s in my HRD are very nice too.

Chink tubes in my experience tend to be less reliable, but I have heard they are improving

That looks worse than ass.

You deserve it, faggot. Next time don't fuck up the threads by forgetting the subject MORE THAN ONCE IN A FUCKING ROW!

One time is excusable, but multiple times is just pathetic.

I happen to be a fan of ass.

>implying the booty looks bad

Ass in the figurative sense, not the literal sense.

I love me some booty.

>'faggot'
>'fuck up'
>capspam


:^)

are epiphione dots shitty guitars? my local shop has a cherry one for $229 (used) that i was going to go look at and maybe ditch my acoustic for/towards.

>the really nice second hand guitar at a great price you tried out is now sold and you will never own it
>there is no other strat around at that price for that kind of guitar

why live?

why are strats so expensive anyway?

because people will pay it

the one I now regret not buying cost "only" $1k dollarydoos for a usa strat which is relatively extremely cheap for a good usa strat over here

damn, i saw a used 2016 USA for $850 today

Building a top of the line strat is the easiest shit ever dude. With better hardware than Fender if you want.

i think he lives in a third world country like the UK or something, where parts are expensive

in usa?

australia

so yeah 3rd world where everything is hella expensive

yup usa

australia isn't so bad unless you post on pol

Definitely pic-related

or have to take public transport in sydney

>/gg/ is on it's third thread in a 24 hr. period
