i'm gay btw

>newfag on Sup Forums here
do you have to be gay to play the guitar?

learn to play wonderwall and you won't be gay

do i can still be gay if i play acdc songs

no that is very cool play them at parties

maybe if i play them with a dildo hidden up my little panty? please

soundcloud.com/lotsalove/please

Can anyone PLEASE identify this open tuning? I restringed my guitar without writing it down and now i cant remember it. This is a snippet from a backing track i recorded. This is all the strings open

sounds like open g. cant figure it for yourself, sissy?

Ive so far jammed my guitar into the wall and broke a string out of frustration

Shit i think you might be right.

Guitar isn't gay, it's just for scrubs

will i not be gay anymore if i dont play for like a week?

now post a pic of a pen stuck on your asshole

how do i into gay guitar playing

Shoegaze. If you want to actually be cool, classical or flamenco. If you want to be an edgy teen or a neckbeard fedora tipper, metal.

looks like conjoined twins

Should I get a Mandolin or a Banjo?

xhamster com/videos/fucking-my-ass-with-my-bass-guitar-6772314

Should i get this? Im really on the fence about it. Tell me what you like and dont like about it. pitbullaudio.com/suhr-modern-pro-electric-guitar-maple-fingerboard-gotoh-510-bridge-transparent-blue-denim-slate.html

If you have the money for it, you have TRIED it before buying it, and you liked it? Then why not? Go for it. If not, then I would actually try it before you spend money on a guitar that you may, or may not like.

I think he looks pretty cool except for being in his mom's house.

I think thats my issue.. I have no way of trying one. But i still want it.

From what I gather, Suhr makes decent instruments, however, they are pricey. I wouldn't feel comfortable dropping 1k+ for a guitar that I haven't tried. Look up reviews, look at the scale length, fret size, and decide if this guitar would be good for you. I really douby anyone here on /gg/ has gotten a Suhr when everyone plays squiers, condor's, and epiphones.

yeah im a love struck babe im a lov struk babbe

>he claims to be searching for "that earthy tube tone"
>he owns a Les Paul without P90s
>he owns a Tubescreamer
>he owns a fucking Silicon Fuzz Face
>he doesn't record into tape reel or cassette and then bounces it into a DAW
name that guy, /gg/

too expensive better get a halo custom guitar for that price

>he doesn't take out a second mortgage on his house to get a Dumble

What are you even doing, m8?

dumble sucks
even software does a better job of amplifying the guitar

a fucking idiot
only idiots still search for "that earthy tube tone"
go digital or go extinct fuckers

using the word tone to describe a guitar sound is pointless

Then what word would you use?

"guitar sound"

How is that less pointless

Everyone always goes on about tone this and tone that
"how do i get that tone"
"ive been searching for this tone for 30 years"
"tone for days"
"what amp will give me that tone"
blah blah

but what they really want is the ability of the player, because most of the time the actual guitar/amp sound is just generic distorted amp with delay

its like the idiot who buys all of david gilmour's equipment so he can sound like him, but in the end he still sounds like shit
"tone" is psychological

why tone is pointless

Having a heavy pick attack isn't sloppy famalam, sorry to break it to you. Though note taken, I'll stand a bit further from the phone next time I record something. I'm afraid of cranking the volume in case I overload the mic on the phone.

players ability is part of tone.

meanwhile i sound good with either my alien, my zoom plugged to that little bass amp or the amp of the studio the bands reharsing at

Okay have fun on your Crate amp with your Fisher-Price guitar.

>jamming n noodlin to srv concerts or someone else
>fun af, takin some from the players' ideas
>find a similar sounding backing track and play over it
>dumbed down to repetitive ideas, not enjoying it

this now is the official slow blues in G ok

Quality discussion

Sounds like G to me.

You're welcome

The player's technique and ability is every bit as important as the gear they use

>his guitar is more expensive than his amp

I saw a guitar i liked today at a pawn shop but it's in very bad shape nothing unfixable for 50 bucks. Should i get it and pretend it's a relic? Pic related-ish (same guitar model but not the one at the shop)

Do whatever the fuck you want it's your money m8

Yup. I own two 2000+$ Basses and play them through a 5W mini amp.

Does it sound good? That's all you should care about.

>can't practice often because of job

How do I quit my job and become NEET so I can focus my energy on songwriting and playing?

>he doesn't use a 100 watt head + full stack to play in his garage to backing tracks

you're on Sup Forums. Thats probably a lot of time you could free up right there

I would need to get it some new strings and tune it upto check how well it holds up, but it does play better that my current acoustic (costed 50 bucks too)

>bought cheap guitar and cheap amp years ago
>feel like buying something more expensive is pointless because I still sound like shit

Should I throw out 500 bucks for an orange amp? Or should I keep playing the shit hardware until it sounds good anyway?

I got a $120 electric guitar and a $30 amp, what should I upgrade first?

Orange is gay

is that good or bad?

The one you hate the most
Depends, are you gay?

Probably the amp then, would you recommend any? I don't really know where to start looking.

will i earn gg points if i make videos playing every guitar solo from ace frehley albums

youre going to sound like shit with the new amp so whats the point?

What amps would you guys recommend? mines an old shitty $30 one. Thanks

zoom g1on and a decent home teather

Wouldn't know i only have a 10w epiphone(it's shit btw) probably your amp is better than mine

You didn't tell us your budget you stupid cunt

Oh right, my bad I guess 100$

home teather?

I'll also be playing them on headphones only for the time being, don't know if that makes a difference.

I picked up a Peavy Vypyr 30 on ebay for 100 bucks. I can't play for shit, but people tell me it's good (for a modeling amp).

>i'm sloppy only because i want to

I'm getting a gonna get a Standard Fender Telecaster guys.

Any tips for a beginner on the electric guitar? I'm fairly good at acoustic already.

Apparently I'm retarded, no gonna get*

It's the same shit nigga

Are you retarded or just baiting?

>when /gg/ slowly starts turning into /fit/

Are you sloppy or its all on purpose?

Only if you are Scott Grove.

Heavy pick attack and sloppy are not the same thing.

I appreciate the feedback, like I said next time I'll make sure not to stand so close to the camera

>a bunch of /r9k/ faggots shitposting

Yeah I can see it

but then i wont chat about guitars

youtube.com/watch?v=e8rIrjk3e6M
Is this the video you're trying to defend? Because you are getting really sloppy in the second half, it's not just pick noise. Stop trying to protect your ego and just practice more

My computer is a toaster. I can't even record my demo because it skips like crazy

Mesa/Booge Dual Rectifier

Anyone here play bossa nova? Wouldn't mind hearing a clypit

yes just a bit

The original critisizm (which I now assume was meant as an insult) was " I can hear your strings more than the amp/guitar, stop being sloppy" Which i took to mean my heavy pick attack was sloppy, which is what I was defending.

You are right though, I never claimed to be good but you are fair in the playing of the last bit was not super clean and pristine, still practicing every day like I should be.

However I also didn't intend for it to be a 5 star pedal review, and I can also only assume that the heavy attack didn't help, but I can basically assure you my pick attack is always that heavy.

>i-i am not wrong! its all because my attack is strong!
>the notes are not choking up, its just the pick attack that youre hearing!

its so fun to play and sing wild world

Where did I say I'm not wrong in the last post? I actually said you were right about the later playing being sloppy, and that I am still practicing everyday like I should be. I merely said the pick attack didn't help at all since the sound of the strings being struck was close to the camera/phone position.

>i always have a heavy attack! i'm so macho!

>Telecaster
vomit

guess the conversation is over if you are just gonna be a shitlord since I never implied anything of the sort. have a nice one I guess

Headstock needs an inlay logo and no paint. Body match would be best. I would prefer a darker board with nicer fret markers too. Honestly, it looks like a production neck stuck on a custom body.

Looks like a lipsynch video but with guitar. Turn down the music. Turn up the guitar.

>acdc
The band name means bi-sexual so I guess you would have to swing both ways.

What is undoubtedly the best fender?

Malmsteen's signature stratocaster ;)

>tfw metronome
clyp.it/xpt25ha1

I'd say the stratocaster is the most versatile sounding guitar ever made and also the most important electric guitar ever made from a historical standpoint

now "best" is a bit to subjective

Software can't do that at some point you need real physical hardware you fucking idiot.

String noise isn't the same as heavy pick attack, I never even mentioned your pick attack, that being said consider the fact that plenty of really good players manage to have a heavy pick attack without letting every single string other than the one they pick ring out all at once. Use your fucking hands to mute the strings you aren't meaning to play.

It has nothing to do with proximity btw it's all technique or in this case lack thereof.
