What's the best guitar with humbuckers that isn't made by Gibson or a guitar made exclusively for metal and shred?

first act

What's your price range?

This is /sgg/ now.
Single coils>>>>>>>>>humbuckers.

what are you guys making your picks from?
don't tell me any of you is a pick-buying cuck

I mean it's all about personal tastes really. In terms of overall, I like single coil, because they're brighter, clearer, and have way more tonal possibilities than humbuckers especially on a strat, because you get three pickups. I also have a an H-H Tele whenever I'm playing some really high gain stuff like hard rock and metal. I personally like the high gain tones you can get out of single coils, but they just don't fit the genre profile. I find humbuckers just really muddy and dark.

Is a 155$ Geiger Counter worth it?

Will Yngwie Malmsteen ever be bested?

Yeah how else are you gonna count geigers

He was bested before he was born.

posting my stuff again cos boredome

Yes if you want to fuck lolis

I've been playing for almost a year and I still don't own an amp.

What kind of strat is that?
Check out the Blackstar fly 3

what you think of this gg
youtube.com/watch?v=xjYJgaN-5lU


i made em out of credit cards when i first started but theyre shit and i really like aftermarket picks


i bought my amp after 1,5 year playing. until then i plugged a borrowed zoom g1x (which i still use) onto my brother's practice bass amp

kek

just a Classic 50s Mex, but I've had it for 10 years now, so pretty much everything that could be replaced has been

posting my gf's butt because i'm a cuck numale

does this sound thin, trebly, or battery radio-like?

clyp.it/d2oqqsxf

i like humbuckers for cleans too. wtf you never heard led zeppelin live? i love my les paul.

I thought that looked too much like daphne blue or surf green to be a Mexican standard. I really want the classic 60s strat laquer. I don't know if Fender is killing off the line or just not making any.
Are you doubting the King of the Surf Guitar?

ace frehley likes surf, look at this beach boys reference on the intro
youtube.com/watch?v=1KKyiu5R6j4

it sounds good

needs trumpet solo at the end tough

>blasting Misirlou through my headphones at work this morning while putting up stock
>coworker overhears and asks if it's the black eyed peas

i remember my neighbor cranking "pump it" on sunday mornings as a kid
i like black eyed peas, cool hits

great thanks for your time


id do it if i had a synth guitar

youtube.com/watch?v=p1cC15UrKi4

Alive! is unironically a good album.

agree
i still know all guitar parts on it

Friendly reminder to do 30 minutes straight of open string hammer ons and pull offs in whatever scale you desire on a steel string acoustic to build finger strength. Make sure the tone is ringing clean and don't stop till you feel the burn.

fucking beginner i do it with closed strings

If I bought a bullet strat or something and took it to a Dick Dale concert do you think he would sign it? I heard he talks with fans and signs autographs for like 5 hours straight.

gotta rec this fuzz. 100$ and it can do so much

Forgot pic

tfw didnt go to the ace frehley concert at sao paulo with my condor clp2
will surely go if he comes here again before he dies

How often do you guys play/practice?
>I try to practice 2-3 hours depending on how busy my day is

half hour spiders a week

My baby don't stand no cheatin', my babe
My babe, true little baby, my babe
She don't do nothin' but i still play the strat sometimes

true dat it's very versatile and flexible fuzz

just sang a bit of D4 and now my throat is hurt and constipated

Do you faggots ever talk about the rudiments and theory of music, or how to improve as a guitarist, or do you just circlejerk products?

this fellow poster just did it

>rudiments
>theory
All snake oil, just focus on tremolo picking.

Does anyone have any good resources for understanding more of the theory behind neo soul guitar? Would be very appreciated

clyp.it/eue131ww

>rudiments
>theory
All bullshit, just focus on blues licks

id like criticism on this even though its a shitty nonreharsed jam

That poster was me. I just finished my 30 minute strengthening exercise. My hand feels tight and solid as fuck now.

>just focus on being robotic
I don't even use a pick. I sweep pluck arpeggios with my fingers individually and alternate between my index, middle and ring finger to play tremolo.

how to get more fluent at fingerpicking /gg/


cool i'll do it too then, maybe my hands will feel more awaken

Now play Misirlou on 16s doing that finger shit with no pick you smug faggot.

I don't know if anyone could do that. Not even the greatest flamenco players alive. I can do it just using 1 finger as a pick but alternating between all 3 fingers and those weird intervals is fucked.

I got some new, thinner flatwound strings to replace my fatter nickel wounds on my ibanez art core. When I went to go string it up, the strings collided with the bottom of the neck. I had to drastically raise the bridge to fix this. Now the low E string (only this string) refuses to sit in its saddle. How would I fix this? Raising the bridge even more feels wrong, it's basically floating at this point.

You got to have some picks on hand my dude, never know when you might have to play some surf guitar.

I can just use my finger like a pick, not very good with a pick as I've played acoustic fingerstyle most of my life. Really need to get me one of those thumb picks but I'm too autistic.

Still better than Ace
youtube.com/watch?v=DEyYGNX_TP4&t=134s

I am making picks from things like credit cards, sim card housings and stuff like that
they are all made of pvc
here's a hack
you can heat them up with lighter until they get soft and when they cool down they are much stiffer than originally

ace who
have you learned much with the vid i posted back on user?

>1:10
>1:36
lmao
still better than jcm900cuck

thats good if youre poor but i still prefer my aftermarket picks

If your lookin' for trouble
I'm the man to see
If you're looking for satisfaction
There's satisfaction guaranteed
Oh, I was cool as a bunny on ice
Hotter than the rolling dice
Send you to heaven take you to hell
I ain't fooling can't you tell
I'm a live wire
Gonna set this town on fire

no pics no help
could be a number of issues when changing gauge and diameters

>Blackstar fly 3
I might. Problem is I'm one of the most indecisive people on the planet and I can never make up my mind.

Everyone here's such a faggot to each other.
Ffs wasting my time here when I could be at jazzguitar.be

>pic related
Shawn lane was better technically and musically.

What happened to all these virtuosos from the 80's and why were there so many during that era?

What compels a person like this to exist?

Who's the most well rounded technical player of the current year and why is it Guthrie Govan?

NICE

E

I got a used fender starcaster strat. I don't have an amp. I would like something small and affordable. I won't be able to get a better guitar anytime soon, but anyway I could modify a bit for a better sound. My favorite guitarists are Johnny Marr, George Harrison, Matt Bellamy, Jimi Hendrix, David Gilmour, Eric Calpton, Jimmy Page and Jonny Greenwood.

Being an incel aspie

which rat clone does the lm 308 chip sound the best

>idiotbox blower box
>fuzzrocious cat tail
>mar bass distortion

guitarists are all awful people.

vox tonelab st
cheap small flexible
is not an amp tho use your stereo pc or headphones.

Headphones it is. Does it come with the cable to plug into my guitar? Any headphones you recommend?

Good, cheap hard case for an Epiphone Les Paul?

any fingerpicking tips for a life picker interested in getting into fingerpicking? ive doing the simplest exercises but not having much progress

Do you at least have a nylon string acoustic?

Gibson SG Standard as first electric guitar. Yay or nay?

buy something cheaper

>youtube.com/watch?v=zKTi8l8Yuxg
>6:08
look who lol


yeah its great if its not a monetary effort

Aladdin ones are pretty good if you don't mind spending 80-90 bucks.

Like what? (don't know shit about guitars)

>Gibson Les Paul

You might as well buy something cheaper and better. I'd buy a japanese guitar from the 80's or 90's

custom's being built right now. the blank has been shaped up now but i'm not going to show you because it'd give away too much.

Are MIJ Tokais and Orvilles worth attention?

like a epiphone sg400

It is actually pretty nice, got it for somewhere around $450 (but shipping was a ton from Tokyo). Though I can't seem to use the trem at all without my G string going way out of tune immediately.

>epiphone sg400
Do these things actually hold the tune well? My friend had 2016 one and he sold it after couple of months because it couldn't stay tune and it was unbearable for him.

epiphone
sqiuer
jackson
esp
ibanez
buy used
epiphone is your choice because they make licensed sg
look for used one and don't regret spending money like a retard

Tokais are excellent

sounds just like an upright bass
youtube.com/watch?v=6HdxHYX7Yes


i never had tuning problems with my asian made guitars. but i never had an epiphone sg and your friend did.

for some reason the luthier took the photo of that blank upside down.
flip the blank along the horizontal axis. the guitar is an offset design, and the knot you see at the bottom of the blank there is cut out from the horn bout.

how to pick with 3 fingers on bass? am i supposed to use them at a strict pattern, like on strictly alternate picking? if so, what pattern is it?

Are Fender Noiseless pickups a meme?

redbud tree... come to me come to me

good pop folky album

Do you own one? If so, how tough is it?

they dont have the sparkle

guitarplayer.com/guitar-player-101/1025/tech-tip-the-no-solder-humbucker-to-single-coil-transformation/56922
Just use humbuckers and a 10 band EQ pedal.
