I want to make some kind of psychedelic/vintage rock, do you think a Deluxe Big Muff will do? Or is it a better idea to buy a normal Big Muff?. I'd like to hear your opinions.
Jason Butler
Maple or rosewood? Maple can get easily damaged right?
Thomas Russell

suggestions for sub-100$ guitars that are absolutely worth every penny and more?
Bentley Sanchez
Tremolo, reverb and a cheap fuzz box.

Your talking about fretboards I assume? Ive got 2 fenders with rosewood and maple that are 18 and 16 years old, and niether one seems to have worn or been damaged more that the other. Pick what you think looks better
Nicholas Morris
a damage on maple would show and be of different colour, a dent on rosewood is just a dent
Dylan Bailey
do you even relic
Dylan Hughes
we can easily assume user doesnt want to relic, from his post
Isaiah Moore
What's a good strap? I have shitty posture without one and it's fucking up my ability to play i'm literally the retard who cranes his neck to see the frets while holding the guitar with mostly the left hand

I have an LP Special II and want to upgrade to a slightly better quality instrument in a Strat style, what's recommended under $300? I figure it'd be less expensive than changing parts in the LP.
Parker Evans
It's normal, stand with your back up straight and your feet apart, left foot slightly ahead of your right, pull the guitar up so the neck is well well close to your head and the strap is doing the rest of the work. Basically your hand should be what keeps it from slipping forward/backward and the strap keeping it vertically stable.
Adrian Butler
I want to get back into playing bass guitar, it's been awhile and I only ever played songs that I enjoyed. What's the best way to learn again? No meme answers please.
Kayden Powell
Play songs you enjoy
Logan Kelly
try playing bass guitar
Alexander Brown
Do you wanna practice, or do you want to play? If you wanna play, do like says and play what you enjoy. What music do you like listening to?
If you wanna actually practice, learn the modes of the major scale and run the scales and arpeggios up and down. Might not seem very fun, but practice isn't about having fun, it's about getting more gooder
Levi Barnes
I am a shit musician but just ordered a used Epiphone Riviera P93 anyways.
Going to spend the summer practicing that and the keys and writing some stuff.
Besides just putting my nose to the grindstone, does anyone have tips on how to get the most out of practicing?
Christopher Davis
Good stuff my man, nice to see you enthusiastic about music
Make sure that you're 110% focused when you're practicing to make it efficient. Some people can stay focused on one thing for a long time, and others have shorter time spans. I know for a fact that my time of absolute focus is really short. Like 5-10 minutes. So when I practice, let's say a scale, I can usually keep doing that for 5-10 minutes and then I realize I'm not being 110% into it and my mind starts drifting. That's when I take a 2 minute break, and then I practice something else. The different exercises go in a circle and I come back to the first exercise later. Maximizing your practice really becomes important when you have limited spare time in the day.
Ethan Barnes
Lie down, pull your knees up over your head, shit on your chest. Rub your guitar in it and get a good adhesion, practice. It's good for your posture too.
Justin Russell
Awesome, thanks. My posture is shit so this will help.
Yeah, I had trouble with that in the past while playing the keyboard, but lately while practicing the guitar I have been doing better. I think it helps a bit that reading guitar tabs is easier than sheetmusic for me, so learning something is not as difficult, slow, or boring.
Nathan Collins
While tab has it's uses, ) you should set off some time to practice reading sheet music too though. It's a lot more versatile especially if you're gigging, and also for writing. I know how much reading sucks at times, I'm struggling with it myself, but it's a great skill to have
Adam Lopez
I understand that, and I can do it very slowly as long as it isn't something crazy that I need to know all my keys for. Just another thing to work on though, will get around to improving in that area eventually.
Kayden Perry
different guy here, but is there a bass equivalent to chordbook? i like the way you think
Oliver Harris
Can't you just ignore the first two strings?
Ryan Hall
I use a thick, soft leather strap and it works wonders. Never slips, looks great, doesn't slip out of the holders. Only thing is it's a bitch to change length, but how often are you going to change the length anyway?
If you want to fix your posture, try buying a drum throne with an attached back. I have the Mapex one I picked up from GC. Lets you lean back and yet still see the frets.
Jack Brown
Learn how chords are built and make your own chords/voicings if chords on bass is what you wanna play. Adam Neely has a video series about it on YouTube that explains it way better than I can.
Carter Myers
Oh boy oh boy oh boy. Don't fail me now UPS.
Dylan Bailey
Why are you getting something delivered in September?
Brandon James
Hehe, I get it, it's because some people write the date like this : "DD-MM-YYYY" like in my country but others write it : "MM-DD-YYYY" like in yours. That's pretty funny, especially if it's the first time you hear the joke!
Austin Brown
Hello /gg/. Are Gretsch Streamliners any good?
Parker Kelly
What gear are you guys currently using? For post-metal project I'm using my Fender Telecaster "Tele-Bration 60th Anniversary", going through a Marshall half-stack, with a Electro Harmonix East River Drive pedal in front of a ProCo RAT2. Trying to determine which reverb I want, as the DigiTech DigiVerb is pretty hard to get for a decent price.
Adrian Hall
Shut the fuck up already.
Juan Allen
>autistically lists whole guitar name when they're all basically the same >doesn't list amp even though vary in sound between model Poorfa/gg/ detected
James Walker
Because you need $10 000 worth of gear to sound good, right?
Wyatt Morales
I excuse the fact that the amp is brand new and is at my rehearsal room which I haven't visited for two weeks and therefore can't remember the exact model.
Logan Turner
>only my masterfuly crafted dumble amplifier can truly bring out the subtle harmonies of the superior tonewoods of my prs custom shop
Adrian Barnes
Anyone know if a thicker string or thinner string would give me a clearer sounding tone out of an 8 string?
Kevin Barnes
I don't think there is much difference. Your pup height affects it more, desu.
Nicholas Garcia
>8 string
Anthony Davis
Thicker strings are louder, as they create more tension - but they can create more "buzz" and be harder to fret. However, if you downtune your guitar, the sound will generally be clearer with thicker strings.
Jeremiah Gutierrez
bump
Logan Cruz
I have mine set to G atm, though I'd like to be able to tune to Drop E and still be able to play things like power chords and still have a good non-muddy tone, maybe I should just buy two sets of strings and try them both

I do like the parquet floor though, that really is classy
Jose Long
I mean, that's a proper hardwood floor isn't it, none of your crappy laminate there
Jayden Ross
Why thanks, too bad the windows and piping are as old as the parquet floor.
Tyler Nguyen
Well that's a pretty sexy thing alright. Finally a guitar without that floating trem crap.
Bentley Wood
could we please have a pic of just the flooring?

Logan Rivera
Yeah, pretty cool guitar. Charvels are some of the best guitars Fender make.
Jace Taylor
Sure, here you go, sorry for the flash. It's quite nice alright, creaks softly when you walk on it, stays warm under the sun for the cat to lie on and everything. It's a bitch to clean properly tho.
Wyatt Ross
Classy af, I bet chicks dig it. And I did see a new design of vacuum cleaner specifically dsigned to clean between the cracks in hardwood floors, can't remember the make and model now but that may be something you'd want to look into.
Asher Harris
This is the laminate I had fitted, it's pretty nice and the guy managed to do the entire floor without using those edging strips in the doorways.
Blake Parker
Why thanks, our vacuum cleaner is quite old and shitty, I'll look into it. And unfortunately I don't have the chance to try the effects of my parquet floor on chicks since I've been living with my gf in this appartment for two years and a half and counting. She does like it a lot.
Dylan Watson
Fuck yeah, you made it into the 5%. Congrats on not being retarded like the majority of people.
Lincoln Hernandez
I'm not sure even 5% of people have hardwood floors, they're pretty expensive you know.

Continuing adventures in Open A tuning. While I really like Open A in that a lot of older tunes are easily playable on the top 3 strings, it's becoming obvious why C6 is now pretty much standard. There's intervals you just can't get to easily without that 3-4 major second built into the tuning.
