Jaxon Scott
>BC Rich
Aren't they worth a fair bit? Sell it and buy a model you actually like.
Brayden Gutierrez
what hell have I wrought with a child's guitar? Also, checked.
>Scale length affects playability though.
Playability like "changes notes and learning" or "uncomfortable fingers"? I can deal with the latter and get another one if I get serious, that's fine.
Aiden Campbell
some batshit crazy guitar by Peter Malinoski.
Ryan Wilson
24. I thought most people knew that??
Anthony Brooks
it fucks the intonation over so the higher frets will be sharper or flatter than the bottom frets. Buy a real guitar, they make these things shitty because kids won't stick with it anyways you sperg.
Kayden King
he obviously didn't know the answer if he asked, jerks
Evan Price
>Squire ***MINI*** >wtf have I bought a child's guitar?
hahahahaha holy shit, is this a joke?
Daniel Rivera
w-why is it fluffy?
Brayden Mitchell
This is the ideal guitar body. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.
Daniel Edwards
i think i'm just going to go through advancing guitarist with strings 4,5, and 6 for now. the tasks are so time consuming. then i'll go back and do it again with all the strings
Thomas Perry
maximum comfort
Easton Miller
>he doesn't know
get out
Blake Young
how am i supposed to use this in classical position?
Owen Hill
I disagree.
Levi Martinez
>tfw newfag who didn't bother with low E because my fingers weren't strong enough to barre
stopped doing that way too late
Tyler Adams
>classical position do you even know how many frets a typical strat has?
Kayden Cooper
24 right?
Ian Thompson
Nah, it was the last thread. It was a gift when I was a literal child, I'm just going to stop being an idiot and try and learn to play it now.
Oh, well that's some shit. Good enough to practice basics on? I know literally nothing. I know the existence of notes, tuning, and chords, but don't know a single damn one of those. Good enough to start on or just fuck it and use my spergy BC Rich thing?
Don't know. I can't imagine so. It's a Warlock from the "Bronze" line and I got it from a friend, so I can't imagine it's some sought-after model.
Benjamin Gomez

Jordan Gomez
heh your learning, kid....
Wyatt Rodriguez
her legs aren't spread. Not classical enough
Lincoln Thomas
>spreading your legs
Fucking harlot.
Austin Cox
Is this the typical strat thread?
Justin Reyes
>tfw no dark red oily haired, pale, guitar playing gf
Julian Jenkins
I learned on a $40 nylon string, all that matters is you start practicing
Jonathan Ward
this is my fetish
Easton Carter
bro, i have 22 frets on my guitar and its a lot longer than yours... i'm pretty sure you're going to learn bad habits playing that thing
Bentley Turner
That's about as typically typical as they come user. Good buy! Or should I say... TYPICAL buy! Ha!
Aiden James
a-are you ok now??
Justin Evans
When you talked about a dominant seventh chord and the blues did you mean something like this?
3 3 3 X X X
That's the only thing I could think of. Also, I have been thinking about these odd chords for a while now, they're from a song I used to play. Any idea what these are?
9 9 8 7 X X
X 9 10 8 9 X
Dominic Wood
Looks like a mop
James Carter
yes my hands are stronk now
Dylan Nguyen
It's not about the number of frets, the spacing on that is designed for the hand of a little kid.
Ayden Butler
>coming to Sup Forums for musical theory lessons
Matthew Morgan
why is dave conservatoire not in the OP?
Aiden Flores
>Ana Vidovic
Superb taste mein freund
Nolan Robinson
not hum but I've learned more from Sup Forums than I have anywhere else
Carson Clark
>bro, i have 22 frets on my guitar
How atypical. Goodluck with that buddy
Caleb Lewis
Not really, I was just curious and the guy I was talking to seems to know what he's talking about so :p
Caleb Barnes
What's the most meme amp I could get to plug my Mustang into? A Mustang II?
Landon Sanchez
>everyone ignores the chord finder in the op
Jack Garcia
a Gibson amp
Ethan Roberts
oh shit
Lucas Thompson
>not having a chord encyclopedia
Elijah Richardson
Whats a good guitar method book for someone starting out on guitar? I'm considering either hal leonard guitar method or modern guitar method right now. Which is better?
Jordan Ortiz
Don't use a book senpai.
Owen Williams
where can i buy one?
Isaac Howard
>Go into literally any guitar store >All of the guitars have a shit setup with year old strings, out of tune, and generally unplayable action
Why do they do this?
Aiden Wright
because you're a faggot
Ryan Wood
go back to Sup Forums
Robert Jenkins
What should I use then? Also, what amp would you recomend for a beginner?
Leo Reed
My only store closed a couple of years ago but it was really well kept. Owner was a vintage collector/seller but had normal stock too, basically just a fanatic who loved his job. Fucking sucks that he didn't get enough business.
Brody Robinson
Get a teacher. Fender mustangs are nice. Also THR10
Logan Moore
From their website or a guitar shop.
Nolan Johnson
Do you want them to change strings every day or something?
Carter Carter
why? you'd still be a faggot
Dylan Wright
I just moved to a new a city and the guitar shops here are so mediocre compared to the place I just was. Action Music, right outside of DC, is heaven. It was that type of store, too. Mostly vintage, boutique stuff.
Tunings throughout the day when it's slow and monthly string changing is what my favorite store does.
Jayden Gomez
Maybe learn what the notes on your fretboard are called. Basically you only need to know the chromatic scale (how to count up or down in half steps) and the notes you produce with your open strings (EAdgbe'). xxx333 is three notes. > 3rd fret on g string Start at g, count up three steps chromatically: g#, a, bb > 3rd fret on b string Start at b, count up three steps chromatically: c, c#, d > 3rd fret on e string Start at e, count up three steps chromatically: f, f#, g So the three notes you played are bb, d and g. With some knowledge of the major and minor triads, you'll know that that's simply g minor (2nd inversion).
Dominant 7th looks like this: We'll choose a key, for example G. The G major scale is g a b c d e f# For the triad (the notes that make up the G major chord) simply take the 1st, 3rd and 5th note: g-b-d That's G major (short: G) Now add the minor seventh on top. The seventh in the G major scale is f#, but that's the major seventh (it's 11 semitones above the root, g). The minor seventh is one semitone lower, which is f. Add that to the major chord: g-b-d-f That's G7. In the pic I marked those notes on the fretboard up to the 12th fret. Choose a fingering that includes at least one note of each color. Favorites are: 3x0001 3x0031 320001 xx5767 xx0001 x x 12 12 12 13 (same as previous, but one octave higher) x 10 9 10 8 x And so on. Some of these don't include the d (blue). You could also omit the g (red) instead.
Those two chords are indeed strange. Those do not fit into any of the categories I talked about earlier, or at least I'm not seeing it.
Nathaniel Scott
The other guy took the words out of my mouth. Thr series is good, Fender Mustang is good stuff too I have both. I learned a lot using rocksmith but if I were you I'd just use youtube, justinguitar/Marty schwarz w/e. Welcome to the club senpai.
David Barnes
I don't see the big deal about them being out of tune. It takes all of 15 seconds to tune a guitar, plus you get to see how tuning it feels.
Brandon Garcia
That second chord could be a an F7#9#5, which is an altered dominant chord. Third chord is an F#maj9
Ethan Rogers
Isn't it just greatest thing when you're gonna buy a bass/guitar from someone on those yard sale type apps, and you talk them for like a months trying to arrange a date to meet up and then they just sale it out of nowhere? Love it!
Dylan Barnes
Because I don't always carry a tuner on me and I don't like wasting my time tuning the guitar by ear?
Tyler Martinez
Cheers. Truth be told, I never bothered to learn more than major, minor, 7, m7, maj7, sus2, sus4, 9, add9, dim, aug and 6* by their names. For all other chords I just memorize the shape of the fingering that I need to use and that's about it.
* I might know some others but I can't think of them right now
Angel Morris
Calm down nigger I know my notes. I was just asking what you meant by dominant seventh chord because I used to play da blooze and wanted to know more.
Charles Gray
>wasting my time tuning the guitar by ear
practice then, if a guitar is only slightly out it should take zero effort to tune it
Asher Jenkins
I already told you it's a major chord + minor seventh in the last thread but since you didn't get that and posted a simple minor chord instead I figured you needed a brush-up. No offense.
Connor Reed
> X X 7 8 9 9 Amaj7b5
> X 9 8 10 9 X F#maj9
Brody Roberts
Yeah, let me just take this guitar in a half assed open Csus2 tuning and get it back into E standard. It takes a minute or two without a tuner and that's not worth my time when I'm just looking around
Ayden Jackson
It doesn't take much time to learn chord construction and I highly recommend investing time in getting good at it. It's probably what took me to the next "level" with regards to playing.
Amaj7b5 sounds more correct than my F7#9#5
Owen Jackson
>le no one on 4chun knos anything meme
epic
Landon Nguyen
go to a better store then
just saying practice won't hurt, plus a valuable skill. look at some rop classical players who can drop multiple steps on multiple strings near instantly
Hunter Anderson
>tfw trying to learn all the triads
Gabriel Thomas
When you go to a guitar store, just bring your tuner. Or ask if you can borrow one while you're in the shop. Or tune by ear, who gives a shit if the whole guitar is a little bit flat or sharp if you're just playing by yourself for a few seconds to try out the guitar.
I think I'll do that once I'm done with scales. Right now I'm trying to get precision and speed into chromatic scales, and diatonic ones where the string changes are off the beat.
Leo James
It's not hard to memorize one single note in perfect pitch then tune the rest out from there. It's an all-around useful skill for a musician.
Thomas Martinez
I can play by ear, that's not the problem, bud. Just, if I'm between classes and I wanna drop by the guitar store real quick to see what new stuff they have, I don't want to spend much time, if any tuning the guitar.
Gotcha. Guitar is more fun when the technical parts don't get in the way, imo. Keep working at it.
Jacob Russell
What's the difference between the fender champion and the fender mustang? I already have an audio interface for my computer if that makes a difference?
Nathan Lewis
>regurgitating info that can be found in any basic theory book >knowing something good to know, thanks
Asher Martin
yeah that's exactly what i'm implying you idiot
Josiah Parker
>for a few seconds
Colton James
Ah, I see, I must have overlooked it. My apologies.
Thomas Hernandez
desu, if you already have an interface, just get Bias or Amplitube. It's cheaper than an amp. Unless you're playing live, I don't see the point for a small practice amp
Cameron Ross
isn't that all know things is?
Brandon Rodriguez
Wait, people actually look at the OP links? I thought they were just there for decoration since a big, beefy OP is more aesthetic
Angel Wilson
Will it sound the same? What wattage should I get if I decide to go with an amp?
Adrian Baker
>regurgitating the most basic info found in beginners books is knowing something now check it out: 2 + 2 = 4 and E = mc 2 how blown are your tiny little minds right now
John Parker
>check it out: 2 + 2 = 4 great! now you know how to solve that equation!
it's like you're actually retarded
Christian Bennett
If you're playing through some decent headphones or speakers, pretty much.
If you need an amp, for SS amps it doesn't really matter for wattage. It sounds the same at any volume
Matthew Stewart
>this asspain lmao
Austin Taylor
I just looked up amplitube and it costs more than an actual amp does. I already have a mic hooked up to the audio interface that I can use to record.
Nathan Allen
what really funny is you two have already admitted you don't know shit about basic beginners theory (otherwise you wouldn't have been able to learn anything here) and you got upset when I pointed it out
