>it's still a fucking boring instrument that bad guitarists should be playing spoken like a true pleb. it's only boring if you fucking play root notes
punk bands used it shittily and post punk bands realized that it could be used in a great way
but i mean jazz and prog and pop bands have been using bass in a perfect way forever
fucking even the strokes got it right. bassline on is this it is the most interesting part of the whole song
Anthony Barnes
Tele thread?
Michael Wright
>it's only boring if you fucking play root notes Root notes don't deserve the hate they get. Sure it may not be flashy, but that shit in the right parts can make a song solid as fuck. Just make sure you're not the bassist so you can do the fun stuff
Christopher Wilson
>bassline on is this it is the most interesting part of the whole song maybe cause the song sucks
Samuel Perez
fuck that's beautiful. i wanna get a tele so badly. is yours just a standard?
Adrian Adams
...
Camden Cox
Baja Tele.
Ryder Morales
>that shit in the right parts can make a song solid as fuck
oh for sure. but doing it for the whole song is boring as hell. you need to know where to use them
whatever. it has a good bassline
Logan Butler
>22 frets >3 pickups
Kevin Roberts
Warmoth neck, quartersawn maple, dark indian rosewood fingerboard, 10-16 compound radius with the biggest stainless steel frets they do.
Body from a US Standard with pickups by Bare Knuckle, The Creamery and Fender, custom wiring gives Strat inbetween sounds in position 2+4 but bridge + neck in position 3.
Leo Scott
What makes the rumble that much recommended ? I know fuckall about bass amps and I'm probably gonna be always running either a Darkglass B7K/Alpha-omega through it.
Camden Phillips
cheap loud
Alexander Murphy
>tfw you will never get a walnut Rickenbacker
William Hughes
Why has my ear training been going so slow I got better than pleb ears but I want god tier ears. Or are most of you no ear fags?
Joshua Rogers
>tfw they look so nice everyone assumes they're well-made, good to play and sound great >tfw nothing could be further from the truth
I would love to take over Rickenbacker. I'd release far-eastern made budget versions of the 4003 bass and flood the market with them. Then stop making guitars entirely and just make basses but with proper electronics, truss rods that work like Fender truss rods, pickups strong enough to actually drive a fucking amp, fretwire that doesn't rub off the first time you fret a note and a host of other improvements.
Asher Diaz
Can someone tab out Ravens by mount eerie for me? I'll post a cute pic of my dog.
Owen Parker
wtf are those symbols? is that for a sax or something?
Chase Russell
>tfw i have just found a guitar style no one else except me has discovered yet guitar aint dead yet mates
James Gutierrez
I'll get my first Tele tomorrow!
Jaxon Myers
Its flute fingerings. I found an old one of my cousins and taught myself how to play it. Wind instruments where pitch is only minimally controlled by emboucher are way easier than guitar desu.
Nicholas Campbell
Reminder that the Gibson™ Les Paul™ is the 10/10 woman of guitars.
Thick curvy body, lewd neck, sensual moans.
Brody Bennett
I've played a Tele for 10 years and to be honest a super strat is probably going to be a better guitar 9/10. The Tele is an untameable lion though makes you really focus on tone.
Lucas Torres
I would if this song wouldnt make my ears bleed.
Wyatt Scott
telecasters are plain janes with a small boobs and a big butt
Cooper Rivera

Luke Cooper
Nah, I'm a lefty!

anyone here have a majesty? that guitar gets my dick hard
Eli Green

Austin Perry
>there are people who are bassists by choice Depends on the song. Sometimes I like playing bass more than guitar.
Brayden Cook
Best high-gain overdrive/distortion? I am looking for a decent pedal under $150 that can get some sweet high-gain toanz. Also, best noise suppresor for the money? I am looking for one that doesn't suck out toanz.
Colton Nguyen
did you know you can use glasses as a makeshift capo? cause i certainly didnt until now
Nolan Roberts
Why such a big radius?
Xavier Ward
You mean small boobs and a flat ass
Luis Lopez
Blackstar ht pedal. Boss noise pedal
Dominic Martinez
no, that would be a strat
Christopher Baker
Left or right? Don't laugh.
Aaron Murphy
Nah strat is a medium boobed and assed woman
Lucas Wood
None.
Jack Hill
Neither
Robert Wright
Thanks. Any other suggestions?
Hunter Bell
save your money until you can afford something that isn't shit tier
this applies to all purchases of musical equipment
Dylan Carter
>Blackstar ht pedal Looks bretty good mante, I will check it out. Now, about the Boss pedal, I have heard mixed reviews about it. Have you ever had any experience with it? I was deciding between the boss one, and the isp decimator, leaning towards the decimator tho.
Liam Scott
Ill sell you my vintage mxr distortion for 200 bux. Its the germanium one.
Benjamin Fisher
Rack noise gate is best. But pricey. Yeah the blackstar has a few variations of the pedal look into it.
Aiden Ward
user I made that mistake with a few "high quality" pedals. Didn't workout well.
Nah im good. Sure it sounds great but cant justify spending that much. Broke as it is.
Brody Clark
I got relegated to bass because I owned a bass setup for my home recordings and when my band found that out the drummer recruited his best friend who acts like Billie Joe Armstrong and the Frontman for Sum 41 but doesn't commit because he gets "stage anxiety" and refers to notes as "1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th frets." Whenever we improvise jam he just plays the open E chord on his freeze pedal as he checks his phone. Im so glad I'm leaving these guys next month, they started talking about being a cover band for neighborhood block parties because it "pays well"
Angel Nelson
Dude, i remember high school, too. Sick! xD
Matthew Ortiz
Waiting Room? Gimme Shelter? Saw Her Standing There? Less I Know The Better? You're a Woman, I'm a Machine? Higher Ground? Sabotage? O Katrina? Reptila? (Bassline is equal to the Riff though) Electric Feel? Juice box?
Angel Ortiz
What's the girl equivalent of the Jazzmaster?
Alexander Walker
Very lightweight, I gig with a Rumble 2x10 500 that's 34lbs. Too bad the tone is hard to dial in
Jacob Sullivan
Gibson Les Paul
Ian Clark
Its from the 80s. Dont you want to be an 80s guitar legend?
Dylan Brooks
Some hipster cunt with a resting bitch face that smoke long cigarretes.
Brayden Fisher
Too bad I live in Indiana where the Chicago pop punk scene spills out here and now everyone reminisces and wishes they were still in high school .
Blake Foster
Anyone have expletive with active basses? I have a Stu Hamm MiM Urge I from 1994 that buzzes and hisses like crazy, anyone have any insight on what the issue may be and how to fix it?
A trap
Joshua Diaz
Thing with active preamps is, if you've got a noisy signal going into the preamp then it'll quite happily amplify that noise into a louder noise.
Shield all the cavities, connect all the shielding tape to the ground of the jack. Because if you don't ground the tape then you might as well not bother shielding the guitar.
Ian White
Working bass players have better ears than working guitar players as its way worse if a bass player can't follow the changes.
Owen Moore

Thomas Martin
play root notes. sit in the corner, and shut your fucking mouth
Liam Brown
>play one note at a time >harder
Yeah, as hard as those 4 note jazz voicings and inversions.
Kek, bass players are literally below drummers.
Cooper Roberts
getting this printed on a t-shirt now
Dominic Butler
i will fucking sue you
Thomas Fisher
suck my black ass, fagballs
Evan Jones
stop stealing shit jamal
Grayson White
Come on please its really cute
Evan Gutierrez
If youre a cute girl and post your lips as proof i will do it tomorrow.
Post penis if youre a boy.
Asher Ward
So I want to start learning guitar, what do I need to do? What is a good guitar for a beginner to buy, that's also cheap?
David Gray
Hard way
>acoustic >12 bar blues >folk >60s singer songwriter >classical pieces
Easy way
>electric >punk >grunge >rock >metal
In that order.
Buy a beginners "my first guitar" songbook.
Luke Hernandez
First things is save up about 1k
Levi Green
Lmao
David Gonzalez
What do you think about starting with a steel stringed acoustic guitar
Hudson Hill
>>electric >>punk >>grunge >>rock >>metal No. Genres have nothing to do with difficulty, OSDM or thrash metal are baby tier difficulty and completely not comparable to classical pieces.
Also where's jazz or funk ? Why not blues on electric ?
I could go on but the point's that it's not a very good list.
Connor Davis
Right.
Dylan Watson
post your god machines
Isaac Adams
...
Chase Jackson
Go ahead.
Kayden Gray
Too much for me
Charles Bennett
Learn all basic chord shapes. Then play songs you like with tabulature.
Then learn how to move these basic chords across the fretboard. Then play some Van Halen and Amon Amarth.
Angel Parker
>muh gibsonstraightintoMarshallwithnopedals pose
dadrocker detected
William Campbell
Same. I only use the channel switch footpedal of my amp.
But then again, im awesome and play some sweet shit with my fingers not my feet.
Jaxson Cruz
>I can't think beyond overdrive
enjoy your lifetime of blooz covers, 1970s rock tedium and pretending to be eric fucking clapton while trotting out yet another rendition of freebird in the corner of a bar
Zachary Morgan
nice try yngwie
Owen Fisher
Ok Lucifer.
Colton Lewis
Besides footpedal i only use that little red dyna comp. The cleans are very nice for a "hi gain" amp
Easton Reed
Lmao went to a bar in San Diego a few years ago and shit you not 4 old dudes playing covers and in the midst of one song where the solo comes in he plays freebird. God bless you old fags.
William Reed
Youre welcome. Pro tip: if youre poor you can use electric guitar strings on an acoustic.
