Greeeeetings!

Posting a design of what is my soon to be $120 Garbagecaster.

I said, "Captain."
He said, "Wot?"

cheap guitars are an art form
learn to work wood and make your own bodies

Thinking bout pulling the trigger on a Heritage H-150 for $1250. Pic related though not the individual instrument I'm looking at.

Either that or I go with a G&L Legacy (USA) made. Whats Sup Forums think on this?

Well, Heritage is the REAL Gibson and G&L is the REAL Fender. Quite the quandary.

Thats what I'm thinking. Not to trash Gibson or Fender, they make good guitars. But I feel like you get a better guitar with Heritage and G&L (excluding Gibson/Fender Custom Shops which are obviously great)

Also, its hokey, but something about G&L and Heritage as companies is attractive. I feel like Fender and Gibson need some decent competition.

>puts guitar down

what song is it for you?

Mood for a day - Yes

rhythm is one of the things i struggle with the most. What are some good tips to get good at rhythm

Literally just buy a metronome with a sound you can tolerate and play with it all the time. Alternative get some kind of quantizing drum sequencer and play along. Loop pedals help too because if you're off when you make the loop its super noticeable.

I actually learned that one slowly over the last few years. It's not that bad if you can fingerpick okay. I just kept playing it really slowly till it got to muscle memory

That being said, the one from The Yes Album, Clap, I'll never figure that one out.

I gave up a couple years ago and moved on to just writing my own shit. Maybe I'll revisit it and take it really slow.

rate bass and drums that i added over this voice+guitar recording

So I've this for a while, how do I direct input it into my laptop without frying my laptop?

groovy brah

took a while to wirte the tempo on the daw as the song has no constant bpm

Plug any line out you have into your butthole.

Bubble Dream by Chon
I can play about half of it, but the tempo fucks me up

these vocals are better though 55chan.org/mu/src/1505701624865.ogg

for me its squires

jazzmasters or jaguars?

If you want some competition with fender and gibson I would recommend checking out godin and maybe finding a used one somewhere that you can get for cheap. They are Canadian made and very high quality and are pretty wacky with synth and piezo pickups often put into their electrics.

>pretty wacky with synth and piezo pickups often put into their electrics.
looking for an instrument, not a retard child's toy

I've checked them out and I'm not a fan of their aesthetics although they seem like cool instruments.
This is not me, I am the person who posted the guitar pic. I seriously wished blue boards had ids

Fellas, I bought a PolyTune clip and a promo code for the Plug-In was included. I won't use it at all and someone might find it useful for their DAW's, like half the price is okay or whatever

Hey guys. Just recently got into playing bass (Friend had one and I really want to play with him so want to learn bass) Can anyone suggest me if buying a cheap bass is worth it for beginner or is it better to spend the extra money for quality? Also, any suggestions on brands is encouraged. I'm clueless and if anyone with knowledge on the topic.

Okay /gg/, i have a question that's been on my mind for the longest time

I've been playing guitar for at least 7 years now, but i am self taught, so one thing i never understood was, why is it that sometimes during live performances, etc. when the guitar player switches chords he puts his hand back at the first fret and slides it up to the new chords without actually touching any strings, so they're definitely not doing a slide.

Is this just a motion guitar players do to lower tension in the hand or something?

Example, but to a lesser degree, since he only slides his hand back down to 8th fret or so:

>the saved up enough money for new guitar but spent it all on hookers in some kind of sex induced madness

Oh well...

can I really get money for nothing and chicks for free

no

>Whats Sup Forums think on this?
this is /gg/ dumbass

Looks cool.

Do it man, get the heritage. G&Ls kind of suck and are overrated desu.

I own a Heritage H-140, it's a fucking excellent guitar. You'd be silly not to buy it. Depending how old it is you may want to replace the pickups. If it has Seymour Duncan's then it'll be fine.

On that, I have been thinking of replacing the bridge pickup in mine. It's a custom 5 and I was thinking to get something more PAF like

Regardless it absolutely BTFOs any of the standard/trad Gibsons I've tried

>tfw i realized i spent ~$14,000 usd on camgirls in the last calendar year

i could've bought all the gear my little heart could ever desire ;-;

>tfw spent enough money on colognes to buy a new bogner

don't even regret it desu. It's nice having a full time wage. Can afford all the shit I want in a few extra months

I love the guitar. Almost fills the void of no gf

i definitely regret it. that money is all fucking wasted.

i'll chalk it up to learning experience i guess

I would regret spending $14,000 on camgirls vs only $2,500 on colognes

At least I have tangible things that will keep for many years if stored correctly (which they are)

yeah. i have fucking nothing to show for it

man i fucking hate myself. i should've at least got an american made fender ffs.

Get to it if you haven't already

>imblying we don't have Heritage dealers here

Interesting, why do you think G&L sucks? Just curious as its the first I've heard.
Yeah I've played a few and they always feel excellent at a cheaper price point. Haven't played G&L yet.

My H-140 was cheaper than competing Gibson's, only a bit more expensive than a Studio

Just bought a G&L Rampage tribute lol. Probably will be a few days to a week before it gets here though

string tonality is getting on my nerves

I like the head shape

Like it, drums seem a bit too pronounced (the spare in particular takes all attention) nice guitar soft voice SNAP (snare) voice continues

Why didn't you just watch free porn?

i did it more for female attention, since i can't get it otherwise.
