What compressor/sustainer is a good choice and how is it used to improve the sound?

what are you getting one for if you dont even know how to use it?

if you don't care about intricacies get a sp or diamond compressor

For the sustain honestly, cant really see the difference with a compressor but i lose high notes when soloing too quickly

This looks like a shitty dd20

What's it doings?

what adjustments do you need to make to put heavier gauge strings on a guitar?

from a 10 to 11, there can't be that much of a leap right?

You'll need to adjust the trussrod, if you don't do that you'll have more neck relief due to the higher tension of the strings and a higher action, which will also knock your intonation off.
If you adjust the trussrod so your relief is the same as before then you won't have to adjust anything else.

Is this vintage Aria Pro 2 a good deal for 420 bucks? Do anybody know where these were made?

you are full of shit
just put the fucking strings on

from 10 to 11 there is no setup needed you dumbfuck

...

it's more akin to an eventide timefactor

"Changing the tension on my neck surely won't change anything else!"
You're retarded. Or you seriously can't hear the difference between a well intonated guitar and a guitar where everything sounds off.

eat a dick fag 10 gauge to 11 gauge is so insignificant it won't change anything

I posted in gg a few days ago about this but I'll ask again. Are there any really cheap guitars/brands that are actually worth buying? I'm looking for a cheap one since my church (that I play bass for) is basically giving me a JCM 700+ 4x12 cab for free. I mainly want one just to mess with and eventually learn to play while I have a good amp

You're literally wrong.

>my church

What is "really cheap"?

buy an older japanese guitar. they tend to be cheap

~$100. I'm talking pawn shop shit

Get something used then. A used Yamaha with a hardtail bridge (for the love of god don't get a cheap guitar with a crappy vibrato system) or something along those lines.

Can someone explain the reverence for Nels Cline as a guitarist?


If anyone was a virtuoso in making boring music it would be this dude.

Whats the deal?


Also, please explain the similar reverence for Bill Frisell. He's another dude that is just amazingly boring.

This is Sup Forums after all.

Who's an exciting guitarist in your opinion?

We've found our stereotypical PRS douche!

Hello friends,

Are these guitars for metal only?

Jimmy Hendrex
Van Halen
Jimmy Page
Ingwe Malmstein

I'd like to hear him play that through a clean amp

no they're "progressive"

Nice bait

...

Bump

What does that mean?

Anybody wanna do a The Mars Volta tribute album with me?~ I need a drummer, vocalist, and guitarist

How do I decide if I should learn the acoustic guitar or an electric guitar first? I have basic experience playing a simple acoustic string instrument from my country.

it means that prog and djent bands exclusively use them. any guitar can be used for any genre newfriend.

What's your guys' opinion on Alpher guitars and basses? I really like them and am debating getting a bass, but I want to see if anybody else has any experiences as well

Open string chug spamming over ambient chords or Steve Vai worship, nothing else

Ah, I saw them in Scotts video. You're probably better off asking on Talkbass honestly.

this is good clean tone

OP add this link my man. Cool site that links guitar practice with music theory.

for those wondering

Trade in your flying triangle for a flying V, comrade.

>tfw the greatest and most perfectly designed electric guitar of all time came out in an era when rock and guitar playing were dead

I feel like guitar playing is becoming more popular

what's it like posting the same shit every day?

Pretty sure rock and guitar playing was alive and well in the 50s

Yamaha CPX is the best acoustic and i'm going to buy one

someone break down the stuff hes playing from 3:56 till he stops
youtu.be/ALP4pXdrSPU?t=3m56s

a note on it's own is just that, a single note
but play two or more notes together? you've got a chord baby!

isnt it three or more notes together.......

Majestic. Thank you for showing me the light.

technically its 2 or more but most often than not 3

No, technically 2 notes is a dyad which can imply a chord

if you want to be a cunt about it, 3 notes is a triad

How do you go about actually learning guitar? It's a stupid question but I've been playing for about 4-5 months pretty consistently after practicing on and off for years and all I do is just learn songs I like to play. I don't know when, if ever I'll get to the point where I can, with full confidence, tell someone I play guitar, as opposed to just practicing. Do I practice techniques? Work on speed? I have no clue how to better improve my skills

No takers? :(

>single coils

Kys

learn to improvise (with the blues)
learn chords
learn basic theory
work on your ears

>that pleasant empty feeling after taking a big poo
Any licks or riffs that embody that feeling?

he's playing chords

youtube.com/watch?v=QRMwO08lPuI

you shouldn't be looking for suggestions then, it's far better to search in your local stores for the el cheapo guitaro
but something like a used squier would probably do

at my local flea market one guy was selling a squier strat for like 80 €

I fucking hate people like this, and the music they like

it's pure technique and it's hideous

Everyone does. It's boring shit

fuck you and your bachata crap

this and work on technique

whatever, you're cute, post moar

heres another one, just for you :3 youtube.com/watch?v=gLyY45nDlY0

Post your Brazilian favela setups and alien amps

are brazilian guitars made out of cocaine?

first

How do I improve my vibrato brehs
vocaroo.com/i/s0LcjcmwGB7y

Gotta give you props for being a good sport my simian friend

Slow it down, mostly. Experiment with less bend and more bend. Try syncing it to beats - quarter notes, eighth notes, triplets, etc

sounds good alrairy brah

nothing really wrong with that vibrato, it's fast and shrill, but that can work sometimes but it depends on where you place it.

don't limit yourself to just having one type of vibrato and use the same one everywhere, most good players use different types of vibratos in different places, it completely depends on you and what you like to hear. might sound stupid to some, but i honestly think vibrato is the most personal part of playing guitar

I don't know what any of those mean except for work on chords

are duo sonics still the hot guitar

>most good players use different types of vibratos in different places
like ace frehley
>might sound stupid to some, but i honestly think vibrato is the most personal part of playing guitar
most won't find it stupid, actually theyll agree cause thats what they read around

is... is that the Guitar Center in Natick?

burt kobain is a better guitar player that frehley you pleb

is name was kurdt campaign you fucking idiot

Alright thanks, I got so obsessed with it a few months ago I try to do it as fast as possible and it comes off sloppy as fuck

fuck off courtney

no problem in doing it fast but practice doing it on consistent pitch/width and speed

>that color
>that config
Gross

How does Lindsey Buckingham get such an aggressive sound out if his guitar finger picking

>implying anyone knows or cares who that is

Literal bait

im not even going to google who leonard bucketham is or whatever their name is because its probably some old dad rock bullshit anyway

fuck off
