I'm happy with my little Flamenco until I get good enough to feel I'm experienced enough to move onto a proper guitar.

Reposting for (you)s.

Tell me how stupid I am and how my tuning stability will suffer from this.

Also post pictures of your guitar projects.

the cracks make it extra sturdy

>power chords
what are some weakness chords

Is that Aria Pro PE guitar?

vocaroo.com/i/s1qmDTYGLJF7
Can anyone tell me everything I'm doing wrong? I'm barely starting and I sound like shit

you arent using distortion

no

Sounds good to me, would be even better without the background noise obviously.

What's your gear/setup?

Shittiest guitar owned and why?

don't worry about it, it's only a cheap shit guitar anyway

>tfw triple super distortions through triple Boss Metal Zone through Peavey 6505 Lead channel with maxed out gain

Mexican Fender Stratocaster, and a small Marshall G50R

Why not just buy one of those destroyer pedals

...

FINALLY GOT THIS PROJECT DONE RIGHT.

IT'S BLOODY PERFECT, FEELS SEXY.

>rustoleum spray paint + gloss clearcoat + wet sanding + meguires car wax

still waiting for the damn pickups to arrive but this is going to be a really great build eventually

>thinks pedals can outdo peavey's lead channel gain

Fucking hate glossy necks

>HSS strat
Kys

>Those bridge saddles
I usually hate strat bridges but those look nice

>Humbuckers in a strat
just why?

>assuming I'm putting a shitty larpbucker in it

it's getting a Creamery wide range humbucker in the bridge, medium output pickup that sounds really good clean

why not? buckers in strats sound better than singles in les pauls anyway

Does anyone know if those like 80 dollar diy kit to build guitars are trustworthy? I don't want it to actually play tbqhwyf but building one would be a nice thing to put on a wall honestly

I've got them on a couple of other Strats, they're really stable and the screws don't stick up into your hand when you mute at the bridge

As long as you know how to set it up nicely you can, actually, polish a turd.

What are they called? Can I buy a bridge with those already installed or do I have to buy the saddles separately from Fender?

holy shit I like those perverted asian guitar shapes
do you have anything like that

this is the guy I buy all my partscaster supplies from

>got a Gibson scale neck for my strat
>asked a tech to set it up
>he told me there may be some problems for scale length

tfw my other two guitars all have 24.75inch neck on the Fender body

>.uk
>85 tea cups
Well I tried

for a cheaper alternative, the Wilkinson bridges are superbly comfortable, maybe better than the Fender one. Plus they're available with the 6-screw mounting.

You probably don't play above the third fret, or you're tone deaf and don't notice how out of tune the higher frets are.

Can you explain to us how you think guitars work and then how half size guitars work?

Do some real critical thinking when you're typing up your post.

>there may be some problems for scale length
>may be

he should have told you to fuck off

>Can you explain to us how you think guitars work
and how do they work, indeed? do you even know what a scale is?

So your answer for how they work is asking me how they work?

Really makes you think.

it's bed time roman

>Really makes you think.
it's good since I really asked you how they work. Now answer.

How do I make my guitar look worn out and cool bros?

play it

I think that's a ds-1 but can you guys id the other pedals will is using here

Play for 20 years you faggot

PolyTune

How can I get rid of the buzz/hiss when my guitar isn't playing? I've been trying to record some stuff with volume swells and e-bow but there's a fairly loud background noise that I can't seem to get rid of. Is a problem with the pickups or amp? Or could it come from a pedal?

that's a DS-2

Boss pedal looks like a DS2 or DF2

There's equal temperament across the fretboard for every regular 6 string electric guitar.

How you think scale length would somehow change this is beyond me.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fret
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equal_tempered

If you'd like to learn more pick up a physics book.

nobody knows, you can plug guitar directly into amp and have some tests on pedal, you can not get rid of that if you are using single coil

you're a moron, you can't intonate a gibson scale neck neck on a real fender body. the scale is from the bridge to the nut, not the neckpocket to the nut. imbecile. kys

...

you can change the positions of frets, retard.

apply sand paper and steel wool to your body and play it. thats how the companies do it

>you can't intonate a gibson scale neck neck on a real fender body

Never share your uneducated opinions outside of the internet.

>It totally works. You just have to refret your guitar!

>ds-1
One of the worst pedals I've ever used.

Those are conversion necks, the frets are slotted in different places so they will intonate. A regular 24.75 neck won't work on a Fender Scale body.

The delay is a Red Panda Particle

>wanting a thing he uses to look like shit

why the fuck would somebody rip out frets from a gibson scale neck and re glue them? you're going to have ugly lines all over your neck! and why would even want that done?

just buy a new neck, you poor faggot

Those aren't gibson scale necks. those are conversion necks. Fucking educate yourself.

>implying Gibson scale conversion necks are not Gibson scale neck

really makes you think

No, the idea is that some retard took a gibson LP neck and tried to fit it onto a fender body, not a guy getting a 24.75 conversion neck for his fender.

did you drive through austrailia ontop of a truck you mongoloid

What is a "regular 24.75 neck"? He's buying a gibson scale neck for his strat.

The frets are slotted so there's equal temperament, like I've said earlier.

Can I make it any clearer?

>Fucking educate yourself.

Educate me :^)

i have a bc rich asm 1 from 2013, fairly used, and now i dont know if my peavy amp is blown out or if its my guitar

>he
you're assuming he is getting a conversion neck? lmao, hes getting a gibson rip off bolton neck tempered for gibson guitars for that fender. :^)

it's not mine

Why would the tech say the scale was going to cause issues? if it was a conversion neck, it would be a "Conversion neck" not a gibson scale neck. that entails gibson temperament. :^)

Upvoted

and neither is this

no idea why people usually choose Mexican Teles for this kind of abuse

because they're cheap

I guess. And it's less effort than learning to fucking play the thing.

How well do MIM strats kill humming?

I want to buy a bass for around 1000 bucks. I'm thinking about Warwick Corvette or Fender J-bass. Any others i should consider? Give me some recommendations bros.

yeah, they're also painted with fucking plastic, so the "aging" looks fake as fuck.

what's the ultimate contrarian guitar

buy g&l J bass

thoughts on epiphone sheratons? how do they compare to their gibson equivalent?

step aside for the DiPinto Galaxie 4

Do not buy a warwick, they're often neck heavy. try it out first with a strap. The Fender J-bass have always sounded great. punches through the mix both live and in the studio and is very versatile.

I just want to make it sure, it is surely a 24.75inch conversion Warmoth neck.

Measure from the nut to the 12th fret, multiply by 2

anything g&l

then it shouldn't be a problam, like I siad. your tech is just uneducated like the rest of the poeple in this thread :^)

The best "J-Bass" you could get would be the sandberg california TT. but they're a bit expensive. Go for the Fender or the g&l if you can afford it.

So satin base with gloss coat? That's the recipe I see most people using, rather than gloss base + gloss clear. It looks like you did a good job.

>HSS
>not HSP90

warwicks are certainly not for everyone but i love my german made corvette standard 5 string from '06, though it has a much thinner neck then most ive played. both are great options, i would also reccomend looking at a music man string ray. any of the three will be great work horse basses that will serve you well on any gig or recording session. just weigh think about what you want from it and try them all out (with a strap is a good suggestion).

>not buying YJM pickups

You can flip strat saddles to get the same look XD

Well folks. Here's the finished product.

Refinished westone neck slapped onto a body from the 1980's with a single EMG81 and an unwired neck pickup just to fill the space.

>EMG

shred one dude. make dimebag and Randy dandy rhodes proud. :)

Fuckin' nice dude, don't listen to the haters.
That's pretty much my dream but I'd probably just drop a hot rails type deal into the bridge.

>EMG
>unwired pickup

Only way i can get good distortion out of any amp without having to drop 800 dollars on a tube combo

>hot rails
>all output
>zero tone
