Looks like Gibson revealed their new original model.
Thoughts?
Robert King
sup brah
Liam Torres
Isn't that just the Tak Matsumoto model?
Juan Clark
learning guitar on a $40 childrens beginner guitar it sounds terrible ofc but would skills transfer to an actual guitar?
Jonathan Edwards
Maybe if you can actually tune and intonate it.
Kayden Watson
>Thoughts? it's shit upper fret access looks like ass body shape looks like a cheap PRS
Lincoln Carter
Looks like the shittiest parts of a bunch of good guitars squished together.
Mason Wood
i can tune it but it goes out of tune in like a minute lol
Alexander Williams
>Tak Matsumoto It's a bit different but probably took inspiration from it.
Jack Myers
It'll be hard to advance like that honestly.
Wyatt Wright
first
Owen Gray
>tfw I've started to unironically like Firebirds
Leo Perez
Ok, today bought pic related (Ibanez V70CE electro-acoustic guitar as my first guitar ever). Now the question is, should I start learning from justinguitar.com or the wiser choice would be Gibson's Learn & Master Guitar Bonus Workshops (by Steve Krenz)? Nevertheless I'm going to take several private lessons with professional musician to learn how to hold/play guitar properly.
Hudson Williams
>learning guitar on a $40 childrens beginner guitar
oh man, you are in the right thread
Isaiah Jenkins
>learning guitar on a $40 childrens beginner guitar
So is everybody else in this thread
Owen Garcia
hi
Colton Gomez
>different shaped Les Paul >with a neck joint we should have implemented 20 years ago >rosewood fingerboard because it won't be in production very long >but hey we got rid of the extra useless volume and tone controls that were high tech in the 1950s >no, we didn't bother designing a new headstock so you'll have to put up with that old shit looking totally out of place >3 tuners per side, even though it's the 21st century
seriously, this should be the year Gibson finally go bust
Zachary Butler
they changed the headstock apparently
Parker Jackson
At this point they should make a headless model.
Austin Martinez
>try to practice once a day >still sounds like shit a whole month later >slowly lose motivation to even try >haven't practiced in two weeks
How did you boys push yourselves to learn? I'm sure most of you will say it came naturally though.
Landon Lopez
I mean, it's got old pickups and even older hardware. The only new things about it are the body shape and the neck joint. It would look better with a more modern headstock design. And would it kill them to fit a trem? Would it be such a climbdown to develop a single coil pickup?
Wyatt Russell
>I can't git gud by playing for ten minutes a week
Jaxson Myers
And yet it looks identical
Leo Collins
I was actually practicing almost 3 hours a day everyday.
Asher Powell
wich guitar is this?
Josiah King
it's the construction method that makes gibson headstocks so brittle, not its shape dean headstocks are huge and have the same angle, but not that problem
Samuel Gray
should i get a tele if i want to be unoriginal and normies can tell me i have a nice guitar?
Jayden Rodriguez
What is reasonable for a 97 Japanese Jaguar? 600?
Justin King
it's that one, right there
Juan Perez
nice looking schecter there
Benjamin Torres
$600 for sunburst, white or candy apple red $800 max for other colors
Gabriel Turner
the FashBasher
Brayden Jones
good2 see u
Logan Wilson
wtf this has changed my life
Camden Adams
getting blown out by dean is a little embarrassing
Landon Ortiz
>practice almost daily for 8 years >still suck ass Well at least no one can ever hear me play
Hunter Jenkins
Hey guys can I get some help. WTF is the practice routine.
Gabriel Walker
I just filed one of my guitar's frets with some sandpaper. The fret is probably ruined forever now and I don't have the tools to give it a proper crown but it doesn't buzz so bad anymore.
Andrew Bell
Start writing songs
The only way to actually learn guitar and its intricasies is to start writing some songs dude
Levi Hernandez
You file with a file. You sand with sand or other abrasive particles.
Tyler Baker
Gibson has been out of the loop since decades now. It's not even a particularily complex fix, since they do that even on the cheapo chink Deans.
what did you even expect ?
I'm three years in and I'm a decent/good player, and I've never written any song. You get good at playing by practicing. Writing songs is only gonna make you better at writing songs.
Samuel Lewis
schecter banshee?
Owen Lopez
3 tuners per side feels better than 6 cramped together.
you see p90s at lot I guess
The m2s look alright, but these colors tho
Dominic Morris
I don't really like making my own music because I have very poor imagination. I sometimes just mess around and make some simple chord progressions when practicing but that's about it. I just mostly try to play technical stuff from artists that I like.
Jaxon Taylor
Thank you
Noah Moore
Does Dean just two piece scarf joint?
Jason Ward
>You get good at playing by practicing. >Writing songs is only gonna make you better at writing songs.
So, to you, the only point of playing is to "get good". Not to make music or express anything. Just getting good so you can tell everyone how good you are.
Ryan Ramirez
yeah, that
For it to buzz less and have a flat but survivable non-crown
Henry Hernandez
I don't have emotions to express and am in general not a musical person. I like to 'get good' so I can play for myself and hopefully get some joy from it. My guitar is the only thing in life that I have.
William King
wow, sounds like it's well past kill yourself o'clock in your personal time zone
Tyler Myers
I remember my first year of high school too
Hudson Gomez
I did it out of sheer pettiness and anger like "Fuck you guitar I'm gonna beat you"
James Martinez
Ok, what's the best way to practice playing an electric guitar? Standing or sitting? Will practicing sitting down be a transferable skill whilst standing?
Justin Watson
Im not a strat guy, but I gotta say, this guitar in this color is fabulous, im looking to getting a squier affinity in this color, thoughts on the build quality? Is it worth getting just to have a strat type guitar?
Nathaniel Jenkins
Whichever feels more comfortable. And pretty much yes.
Aaron Bell
>if I piss sitting down on the toilet, will that skill be transferred over when I use a urinal?
Lucas Thomas
>squier affinity >build quality
Jacob Lopez
Ok, so it's better to practice standing? If that's how I'd rather play?
Jeremiah Anderson
Arm angle will change. Even switching from left knee to right requires slight alterations to technique. Also, fret access can be facilitated or inhibited. If you're going to perform standing then stand.
Eli Torres
Don't buy a guitar just because of the color. Affinity squiers suck.
Isaiah Walker
It doesnt have to be premium level Gibson (hahaha gibson quality hahaha) but long lasting as far as the build of the wood components
Julian Gonzalez
squier affinity are quite literally the worst build quality and worst materials imaginable, they are kids toys
save your money until you can afford at the very least a Squier Vintage Modified and ideally a Classic Vibe, the entire Affinity range isn't worth the money
Dylan Sullivan
One thing you have to be aware of is if you play over your right leg while seated, your neck will be at a totally different angle when standing. But even if you play over the left leg with a strap while sitting there will still be a slight difference, but then it's only noticeable on really hard parts. Practice standing if you're going to be performing standing
Logan Bennett
Anyone ever play a Samick hollowbody?
Gabriel Cox
Does jazz sound good on the acoustic guitar?
Henry Harris
Learn as many standards as you possibly can- get your tone crisp as shit. Learn as many scales/modes as you possibly can, practice your improvisation off of those scales. Familiarize yourself as well as possible with every "conventional" chord you can think of and start improvising with chords.
Finally, apply said techniques to the standards you've learned and start improvising around them. After a decade of this, start playing bar gigs while some savant virtuosio rips harder than you could ever imagine- translate your jealous rage into motivation to work harder. It's really something that you have to treat like a sport you're constantly training for.
>after you become famous get yourself killed by a bouncer at a shitty bar and go down in history as one of the greats
William Martin
Is Orange a good amp if I want a clean and post-hardcore sound?
Evan Jenkins
>Does jazz sound good
no
Eli Richardson
You have to be at least 18 years of age to post on Sup Forums.
Cameron Anderson
look up Charlie Byrd
Gavin Foster
Can someone tan out ravens by mount eerie for me?
Dominic Morris
Could be space age futurism cool, but the classic head kills it.
Jace Diaz
That's an old Schecter Blackjack from like 20 yrs ago. The writing on the headstock is the old Diamond Series script.
David James
I've only heard of tanning things like cow abd pig leather, I don't know if bird skin is thick enough
Zachary Nguyen
>4k
Hello? HELLO?!
I can get two Standards for that price, WTF! Even a historic replica!!!!!
Ian Lewis
Tab*
Ian Cruz
dab*
Jonathan Turner
Or a guitar that you dare to take out of the house without fear of damaging it
and an amp
and a used car
Jaxon Scott
REMINDER: JIMI HENDRIX IS THE MOST OVER RATED GUITARIST OF ALL TIME
Henry Cox
well, no, because Eric fucking Clapton
and Jimmy fucking Page
but yeah, Hendrix is near the top of the list
Logan Campbell
No, thats BB King
Juan Martin
>Hendrix >better than Page kek, good joke
David Ward
Yes. Trendy bitch
Justin Sullivan
That would be slash
Levi Turner
I'd get one in all white with a flat body would look cool I think Gibson headstocks can look good with bodies like this more so than the curvy a lot of people don't dig this design for some reason and I can't understand why it looks neat would want to modify it a bit though kinda reminds me of the univox high flyer
Dylan Davis
haha, like anyone actually rates him as a guitar player
Dylan Robinson
I have a Fender P bass in that color, it's way better in person. But you should really try to at least get a MIM fender if you're gonna get a strat.
Nolan Smith
>should I get a Squier Affinity >get a vintage mod or a classic vibe you should get a MIM Fender
Angel Myers
I don't feel like tabbing it. It's mostly based of a C major chord with a capo on the 2nd fret. Technically it's in D major, but the only way to do the bass parts on the guitar is with the capo.
Colton Foster
Is all of my "totally overkill for any bedroom guitarist" equipment just the equivalent of a lifted truck meaning I have a small penis
Xavier Williams
Yeah the higher end ones are pretty nice. I think the one in your picture is one of the nicer ones because of the spruce top.
