this album pisses off too many people not to post.

You can sound like shit for a lot less money.

Why would I, it's one of the best amps anyone can own.

You're starting early today Roman

What album?

What are some bands with just one guitarist that are fun to play like Van Halen?

kek, such autistic critiques, alright wise guys, which guitars do you own

Guys playing style is so unique and expressive. thought some ITT might like it.

Pot, meet kettle

no, his actual body movements he flows so rhythmically with the pattern.

Metallica

>avoiding my request by trying to belittle me
yeah okay mr. neckbeard, whatever helps you sleep at night
I will grant you that the ibanez is pretty meh, but it's an acoustic so who cares as long as open chords sound fine

>no, his actual body movements he flows so rhythmically with the pattern.
thats what i say about ace frehley

>acoistic
>only open chords matter
How pleb can you get? And it wasn't a request, it was a demand. I don't negotiate with manbabbies

These both have two guitars

Metallica hasn't had 2 guitarists since they kicked dave mustaine out.

Bad b8

yes only open chords matter because I'm not going to record or perform on stage with a 100euro guitar dipshit, I barely even play it and on the occassion I do I'm outside and no one is going to complain about to lack luster tone
you should change your mindset buddy, someone might actually like you

>buys ibenhad
>calls someone else dipshit
Your logic makes no sense, your arguments are speculative at best and misinformed at worst. Aside from that you're just another manbabby having a temper tantrum. Lol@u

>im not performing on stage
I hope not, with guitars like that I bet you make horrible music(assuming you do more than just learn other people's songs).

Stay mad, bitch boy.

>im not going to actually use this guitar
then why buy it at all?

It's another episode of Amateur Hour: /GG/ Edition, featuring great posters such as

As well as a rare public appearance by

Have you seen my son?

Fuck this thread and anyone who posts here if your guitar doesn't leave your bedroom

>Fuck this thread and anyone who posts here
That's all you needed to post

Is this some kind of subtle cuck joke?

No, I'm looking for Roman heard he's been around here.

I don't get it

if you see Roman tell him I'm looking for him

okay now I'm certain you have no friends, either that or you just talk big on the internet because of the wonder of anonimity
>my logic makes no sense
then please explain why ibanez guitars are shit and not just "hurr durr ibanez is bad cause memes"
>my arguments are speculative
how would you know? did you play my guitars?
>i'm not performing on stage
well sorry to dissapoint you but I do
you should seriously stop spending so much time on a macedonian onion peeling board, it makes a person far to cynical
did you even read my post?

Fuck it, I'm buying the 7-string meme bass.

>tfw I also have an Ibanez acoustic and an SG (mine's an epi tho)

>missing the point altogether
Damm, you're dumb. I gotta change my policy from not negotiating to not responding to manbabbies. Have fun with your shitplanks. I hope you post videos of you live, I bet they're hilarious.

still dont get it but whatevs

okay buddy, keep calling everyone a manbaby, bet it feels good doesn't it? makes you feel really manly and above everyone else
>not going to respond
you're responses have been nonsensical anyway, always avoiding giving a straigt answer in favour of "stfu I know my shit kid, you don't know jack"
lmao@your life, I sincerely hope you grow up and become a tolerable human being

Hello /gg/ I've recently been feeling the urge to buy a guitar and just play. I don't want to become some famous musician or anything, I just want to be able to make some music. I'm 19 years old with no prior guitar experience and I wanted to ask how old you were when you first started playing and ask for any beginner tips? Also, how long until you considered yourself rather decent? Thank you.

>i don't want to become famous
Good, you're already at a higher level than most guitarists.

this is one of the most pathetic things ive seen on /gg/

oh yes, do please keep on proving my point there m80

...

...

I might have taken you more seriously if you could have formed a proper sentence, just saying.

Wasn't even me, more than one person has a reason to make fun of your rants.

...

hook
line
sinker

roman got another one

I'm so fucking horny now

hai gaiz r8 my sg

i r8 8/8 is much bester than gibshit

gibshit is for neckbird with no gf

Why do famous guitarists like Ernie Balls so much?

They get them for free, or even get paid money to say they use them

they all look shitty

I used to own a jackson js32, was in snow shite. I can't understand why its your baby when mine had such lacking sound form the humbuckers in clean, it was all the gain or nothing.
>pic related
Even had an sg inspired guitar such as yours, beautiful guitar; vox sdc. If only it didn't have those terrible pickups on it with the strange switching system I would still have it.

Lame thread

>average mustang player

still have the bass kicking about, gift to my brother.
Sold the gibbo to purchase the florentine and a fender superchamp x2 - well worth it. I now swear by semi hollow body guitars, just prefer the sound they make.

That's a jazzmaster, but it still applies.

>Implying Kirk "Hamfist" Hammet qualifies as a guitarist

The fucking new bass player plays guitar better than him

gonna buy a fender coronado bass soon is that a good idea

Not my cup of tea but I heard pretty good things about it, kinda depends on what you play though.

I got like a 100-150 bucks to spend should I cop a keyboard or a bass? I only play guitar right now

>I wanted to ask how old you were when you first started playing
Started when I was 10, about 10 years ago.
>Also, how long until you considered yourself rather decent?
About 10 years.

>when you've been playing nothing but steel guitar for 3 months and you go to play regular 6 string again only to find your callouses have disappeared

*gulp* ruh-roh

Fuck of samuel

what the fuck!!!!!!!!

Started at 15, been playing 4 years now, I'm okay atm, I just finished learning the solo to stairway to heaven which is probably the most complex thing I can play, I can do generic fast riffs aswell like Layla and sweet home Alabama.

i started at 15 and the stairway to heavn solo is easy for me
thanks for showing me i'm not that much behind

Started at 13, been playing 14 year.

I'm great...at what I'm good at. I'm sub par at a lot of things. I'll be decent... never.

Yeah, to be honest it took me a few weeks practice to get the rhythm of the fast part down but now I have it I'm hopeful some more of the solo's will become a bit easier to play now I know how to go about it, I'd like to be able to play tornado of souls in another few years but I'll have to see about it..

Pls list these things youre good at and what youre not good.

Don't be that faggot who trys to learn his first "hard" solo within your first year, it'll sound shit and sloppy and those people tend to be so oblivious to their bad playing, just keep it simple, learn open chords, power chords, barre chords and practice pentatonics, in the words of Kieth Richard "you got to build the rocket before you go to space".

>but now I have it I'm hopeful some more of the solo's will become a bit easier to play now I know how to go about it
yeah it happens

Should fat people be forcibly removed? I think if you hit a certain weight you should be put down.

Sometimes I take it to my friend's house when she asks me to give her lessons.

Does that count?

I got my first guitar for my 15th birthday. I turn 27 soon.

Just play until you get good. Beginning guitar hurts, it hurts your wrist, hurts your fingers, hurts your brain. Just fight through it all and you'll start to see results.

reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Is it wrong to practice on a cheap guitar before upgrading?

Only if she pays you in succ

Yes. Buy a 3000 dollar les paul instead.

Why is this allowed?

I got an acoustic I don't need. does it make sense to walk in the local guitar shop and trade it for a bass or will I get ripped off?

bruh if he got a tiny desk concert I'm down with it

>$3000 les paul
Poor fag detected

If you're selling or trading used gear to a store then you will lose a lot of money. The store has to make a profit, pay the rent and pay salaries. Don't expect to get half what you paid for it, if they'll even take it at all.

Thoughts on Rondo pedal cases? I need something for shows.

they look like they're decent quality, price is good too, I'd say go for it
