Looks like a 62 Custom but afaik those all have rosewood.

I want to get an electric guitar off Amazon with my gift card money, any suggestions?
I've been learning on an acoustic, I can do the open cords well, and the barre chords okay.
I don't play with a pick, just strum (sloppy sappy acoustic). Is playing an electric guitar without a pick completely impractical?
Thanks.

Yes.

What the fuck is that even for? Like what makes that more valuable than 6 strings?

When I play a string on its own, it sounds kind of shrill and shitty. Messing with the EQ doesn't help much. It's a little worse on the higher strings. Wat do?
Guitar is epiphone g-400 and amp is fender mustang ii.
Christian Ward
Someone explain the Keisel vs Carvin thing to me. Which is it? They they Keisels or Carvins? What do I call them? When did this change happen?
Are their custom shop guitars good? Their prices for a fully custom guitar is insanely low.
Liam Flores
I can play bass on it. And I can play higher notes and chords than standard guitar. Also it's fun to see traditionalists flip shit over it.
William Barnes
I almost bought that exact guitar and amp off CL a few weeks ago
Alexander Lee
>want a Les Paul >wasn't impressed with the Epiphone Les Paul Standard I played >Gibsons are almost completely out of my price range
Is a used Gibson Faded Studio my best bet? I messed around with one a couple years back in a guitar center and didn't hate it.
William Jackson
Check out the Polara or the Dispatch Master

>ywn shred like a king on stage in the heart of the Soviet Union
I had one, they're not worth your time. Shitty finish and hard to intonate.
Fender is a better choice for the 400-600 price range

Angel Sullivan
its like a double neck guitar for aspergers
Luke Wright
See I have one too, and I love it. I got it used for 400, and it has been my go to guitar for so long. It's action is better than the wizard neck on my ibanez, but it sounds amazing.
It was tricky to adjust to the 50s neck profile, but that's neither here nor there.
>mfw its out of commission at the moment
Easton Miller
Case in point.

>letting it sit like that The wood is losing its binding properties as we speak!
Hunter Powell
My best advice it to ignore me and , check craigslist for some and go play with them. If you enjoy it, and can get a good price, do it. If, after messing with it you don't enjoy it, or feel its not a high quality instrument, dont.
Carson Robinson
It will be fine, it's the second time that joint broke. It's my beater guitar.
When I eventually get to fixing it, it will be good enough for my uses.
Tyler Brooks
Post your gaytars
Gabriel Lee
looks like it has been repaired once before
Elijah Flores
Yes Satan, as you wish.
Sebastian Sanchez
>giant gun on bed do americans really do this?
Matthew Jenkins
Yup. Same line though, and the truss rod is still fine so I'll just glue it up and sand it smooth again.
Blake Mitchell
Yeah had my eyes on the Polara, Dispatch Master seems rather limited compared to those two though.
Jose Myers
>giant gun Do europeans really say this?
Lucas Cox
Well I can't sleep with it otherwise...
Joshua Mitchell
yes

This does not inspire confidence.

What? I like playing guitar drunk. It makes me feel like I'm better than I really am.
Oliver Cooper

At least I don't have mudslimes constantly trying to trade me a goat for my daughter like you europoors.

Your amp has an eq pedal in it

no you pretentious fuck. i play fingerstyle because some things can only be played with fingers
i'd never switch because of some fucking image thing you poser fuck

i just wish i was more cool with talking to strangers while sober you know?
it's a nightmare
i mean i got drunk halfway through and talked to some girls that my friend knew but i just wanna be able to approach cute girls while sober without getting so anxious that i fuck it up
Dominic Reyes
Can someone give me a plan on how get good. I don't have the ability to express anything through my playing and I would like to develop that. All I can do right now is play other people's songs. Where do I start?
Levi Bennett
Eh I had one of those last year. I sold it. You're better off with a Fender at that price range like that other guy said. Then I again I wouldn't recommend a Gibson at any price range, their QC is all over the place.
Kevin Collins
zach?
Elijah Perez
Play for at least 4 hours a day Keep learning other people's music, but start increasing the difficulty level Learn your scales and intervals Learn to improvise
Now just do all that for a few years and you're well on your way
Jose Stewart
I too would like some advice on this I just am not great I like noodling around and make some pretty cool sounds but I want to be able to bring the sounds I have in my head onto the fretboard and out the amp. I just can't do that as of now
Aiden Garcia
Not even remotely close.
Jacob Fisher
None of you retards could get laid anyway. Let's go back to mocking shoegaze memesters and saying prs sucks.

>i just wanna be able to approach cute girls while sober without getting so anxious that i fuck it up Get yourself on .5mg of clonazepam. Same confidence boost as alcohol but you retain your mental faculties better.

Ethan Powell
I know you guys love the Jazz 3 pick but do you use them for acoustic too? it feels weird to me
Leo Ortiz
you said "This" but you linked another of my posts.
and yeah xanax makes me so perfect in every way it's almost annoying. like i take it and suddenly i'm this social butterfly who can talk to anyone with no problem.
but it's hard as fuck to get a prescription and i feel weird lying to docs and saying i have a panic disorder so i'm settling for being an alcoholic
Once you understand these, you can begin constructing chords on your own, as opposed to reading them in a book. It'll let you understand how chords work fundamentally, and help you understand what you can play to make shit sound good.
After that, you'll be better than 80-90% of players. Then it's all just practice.
Gavin Lopez
>tfw Nurse >most of my coworkers are qt as fuck >can talk to them just fine >go out and do something social >spaghetti all over any cute girls I talk to I have no idea what the fuck causes this.
Brandon Howard
Recently bought an expensive guitar. What is the ideal temperature for it to be stored in? What happens if its stored in a bad temperature?
Thomas Cruz
>I have no idea what the fuck causes this. me neither man
actually you know another thing that fucks me up for no fucking reason? talking to girls that i know are interested in me
like i go on this tinder date and for some reason i'm nervous as fuck and i botch it. or i'll talk to this cute girl and i'll be funny and charming but then my friend will be like "oh she told someone that she was into you" and the next time i see her i just sperg out
something about the expectation and pressure kills me
the mind is a fickle thing
Aiden Stewart
thank you so much I've bookmarked those links for tomorrow as it's too late and I'm too drunk to play now but really, thank you
Caleb Stewart
Yeah I linked the wrong post, sorry. I'm pretty sick right now so I'm a bit out of it.
My doc was chill about it. I had depression and crippling social anxiety. He recommended me to a psych and a therapist. Psych got me scripts and the therapist helped me get over the social anxiety. Also you wouldn't need to take xanax or whatever forever. Once you gain some confidence socializing using it you can reduce dose or even go off of it completely. I only take mine when I really feel anxious. Which like maybe 4 times a year.
Joseph Nelson
Take it to some other board, fellas
Austin King
Be aware that learning these won't happen in one day. Be diligent and keep practicing.
Caleb Rogers
cool guitar related posts guys really insightful taught me a lot
Nicholas Morales
yeah i've been to a couple therapists but i gotta go back to one i guess. thanks
my bad didn't mean to derail the thread just wanted to vent quickly
anyway i'm getting this fulltone OCD clone that's coming in soon so i'll update everyone on how it sounds soon
Tyler Edwards
>implying i want to go to /r9k/ or some shitty fucking board to vent
it was music related at first anyway
Jordan Moore
thanks user I will, not to come off as impatient or anything, just curious. How long do you think it'd take someone who has been playing on and off for roughly 5 years but has never really been all that good at it to pick up on this stuff? should I take notes?
Jaxon Baker
Don't forget to subscribe.
Ryan Ross
Probably a few months to a year to really internalize the concepts. I'm not sure if notes would help, it's more about learning and memorizing what sounds good, or correct for the music you're playing. But if you think it would help you learn quicker, then by all means do it.
