Is 20 years old to late to learn how to play guitar?

Wes Montgomery started at around that age, and he's one of the top 5 guitarists of all time.

EHX just reissued the Green Russian Big Muff btw...

proguitarshop.com/electro-harmonix-green-russian-big-muff.html

rate don't hate

he started with a tenor guitar when he was 12 and all of his brothers were musicians. the autists that come here asking already lost.

Who was Sup Forums inspiration to play guitar? pic related was mine

>youtube.com/watch?v=qA9IB04JXiM

no thanks

Yes or no? Tbh

reverb.com/item/6379098-gibson-les-paul-standard-2010-black

Me too, I also really like John Frooshante.

sadly, it was slash. However, I got started playing bass, my main instrument because of justin chancellor. Only slightly less embarrassing, but better imo.

It's ok because now I rip some decent jazz guitar because I stopped listening to buttrock.

>reverb.com/item/6379098-gibson-les-paul-standard-2010-black

I think gibbos are wayyyy overpriced to be honest. That's a good price if it's in good condition though. I see nothing wrong with epiphones, I don't know why people think it's worth the extra grand and a half for the gibson name.

looks kind of beat up , probably a good price for Australia though

I actually wanted to play guitar because of [spoiler]Guitar Hero[/spoiler] and I thought Texas Flood was one of the coolest things ever.

how did you post Tbh

...

What's wrong with 2010

Last post before i go to sleep. Please rate.

Did you run out of lithium? How many days have you been up?

Can i be a female bass player? Ues or no.

>How many days have you been up?
several

So you get rid of all of your guitars that are more than a few years old

Post froosh froosh for cuteness comparison.

How do I get better at song writing Sup Forums? I find some 4 chord progression and I can write aabb. But it never gets more complicated than that. How do I add in those interesting chords or bridges? How do I write internal rhyme or other interesting rhyme schemes?

>mfw deleting some of my shitposts but not all my shitposts

I only come here to laugh at retards and I'm never disappointed.

What if you learned some theory?

Squarepusher was pretty much the reason why I picked up bass guitar, although I have quite a different style than his.
youtube.com/watch?v=kX9QE6OBvoY

Because EVH said don't bother ;^)
>There are no rules. I think it's funny when people take all these music theory classes, it's exactly that. It's theory. You have 12 fucking notes, the 13th one is the octave, do whatever you want with them. It's really that simple. There are no mistakes!

Are you saying I should just go through all of OP's material and afterward I'll know how to write pop punk better?

his performance of this: youtube.com/watch?v=kmZoQFYYx8U
convinced me that i needed to get serious about it
the intro to Roundabout was the first thing i ever learned on guitar

do not post a new thread until the old thread is at bump limit

Thread was at limit, sorry if your troll posts got deleted. Maybe you should stop evading a ban.

He should have kept drinking and formed a punk band.

>asking for life advice on Sup Forums
just go ahead and do it man. it doesnt matter how old you are

>it doesnt matter how old you are
kek yes it does dumbass

nah, I started bass at 19 and seem to be doing fine

how then?

I'll probably get some shit for it, but I went through a John Mayer phase when I was 15-16

no it doesnt "dumbass". skills can be picket up at any age

picked*

>being this delusional
how do the losers who post in /gg/ always manage to be so entertaining

Hey. I asked for help on a thread yesterday but people were saying it was too produced.

Here is a live video of me trying to cover a song. I've been playing roughly 3 months now. Anything you guys notice that is really holding me back, or that I'm doing wrong?

youtu.be/D2-hckwbCtw

This is the worst thread I've seen in a while on this website. Fucking leave

write a record with your face on the cover and call it "tfw no pussy blues"

>I entertain myself by calling others losers on an anonymous anime imageboard
just kys already

why the fuck are we even here. This is pure shite.

guitar wise you seem fine, i think you need to loosen up your picking hand a bit.

voice is awful though, sorry.

>be me
>call it like it is
>they cry like bitches about it
must suck for you senpaitachi

Stop evading your ban

>why the fuck are we even here
THAT'S A VERY GOOD QUESTION user

I have a bunch of my own songs. Some recorded some not. I am tryin to improve my singing.

Yea my voice needs work. I have other songs trying out difference vocal styles. This one has to be like as high as possible, but it's usually nto like that.

Yeah, uh huh. Right.

Nobody cares, faggot.

>tfw all the boys wanna jam with me and I have to turn most of them down because having more than two social interactions per week is really exhausting

Ol Jerry

I've since branched out but he's what made me pick one up in the first place

>I've since branched out
Yeah, going from Clear Channel™ buttrock to whatever genre of garbage progressive meal you listen to now isn't quite as adventurous as you'd like to believe, squirt.

I'm a bigger Jerry fan than you and I have a G&L rampage

lol

Gilmour

>tfw only a Gibson™ is good enough

I just wanted to sing, originally, and needed an instrument to play along with.

As I began to get more into playing the guitar in its own right John McGeoch was the guy who I most badly wanted to emulate.

...

How do you know you can actually play your instrument?

If you can sonically assassinate parrots with it unplugged

when someone offers you money to do it

Dave Gilmour

why do I never see jacksons on /gg/?

none of you fags play metal?

I own a Jackson Rhoads and one of those 7 string Dinkys. Fucking love Jacksons.

Not for numales though, which answers your question.

I'm sorry, my apologies. Please feel free to enlighten me. I'm sure all the variation in the wanky children's music that makes up your eclectic tastes will surprise and shock me to the core!

>why do I never see jacksons on /gg/?
not enough neckbeard virgin pizza delivery boys post here

Hey man, that was really rude. You wouldn't say something like that to a person in real life, would you?

>tfw got a Jackson King V
>Thought it was black from the picture but it was actually metallic gray
>Pointy end pokes right leg when playing while sitting down and it hurts
I don't regret it but I hope I can get it repainted in the future.

Also webpage says $1200 but for some reason the online store had it new for $750.

come try me and see ;^)

I wanted to smash strats and make noise like Kurd Cocaine.

picrelated made me want to make love to a strat like he did
but it was Bruce Dickinson who made me interested in music beyond listening in the first place

That's why you should have gone for the Rhoads, my friend. King V's aren't made tk play seated, but the Rhoads sits perfectly between you legs. Randy designed it to replicate classical posture.

But user, I like Trivium. I got it only because of that.
Mentally I'm a 16 year old autist.

Well... That's pretty tragic, user.

Look on the bright side, the hardest step to getting help is admitting you have a problem.

hot desu

then I'm autistic too. I can't stand matts new vocals but in love with their musicality. recording a cover for the sin and the setence

Just purchased a Blackstar HT1R and an SM57. Going to start gigging solo at the small local open mic.

Did I make good decisions?

you'll be fine, hope your gigs go well!

...

What are some fun and relatively easy songs to play on the classical guitar?

>original big muff sounds fat and fuzzy
>russian muff sounds like a broken blooze overdrive pedal

honestly saved me from wasting some money on it, thanks friend

youtube.com/watch?v=4GQYIwqoA6E

still one of the heaviest players out there today

is that some people prefer thinner stings on semi-hollowed guitars?

Can anyone explain to me why c minor harmonic looks like the top and not the bottom? Wouldn't 1 natural(?) be enough?

>melodic minor scale

>someone's selling a 6/12 Chibson for $500 bucks on Gumtree
>losing the fight to not waste money on a shit Chibson that I'll regret instantly
What's the most anyone should pay for a Chibson?

>Pointy end pokes right leg when playing while sitting
lol wtf you're not supposed to have the ass of the guitar against your leg

Shit tier vintage guitars represent

$100 used, you can order a new one for around $200

Another day
Another dollar
Now to make these stupid and gay
Neet fuckbois holler
R8 my lyrics

You would get a lot of views on youtube from kids saying that I "just don't get it it"/10
