This is a reminder that a $37 10 band EQ pedal can do more for your tone than any expensive tonewood, expensive pickups or expensive amp.

I stopped using 2.0s. They make my hand tired. (It could be the lack of grip that I'm compensating for.) It's looking like the mid-sized Petruccis are where I'm headed next.

Anyone have any good guitar or bass lesson/theory whatever PDFs?
Why would you buy any pedal that's less than at least 100 bucks? I wouldn't even enjoy playing the guitar. I would just feel like a weak poor loser while knowing I would have a much better tons if I had just saved up more money.
Carson Ward
Caline makes clones of expensive pedals. By clones I mean they literally copy the internal schematics so they sound exactly the same. That's a clone of a $130 MXR EQ. If you want to waste $130 on something that sounds exactly the same as a $37 pedal that's your prerogative.
Brody Sanchez
Sure, that equation was written none other than the great genius Paul Reed Smith. Let e stand for Einstein (since sound and physics work well together), P stand for Paul Reed Smith (bless him), and T for tinnitus (what happens if your tone is too powerful). The EQ pedal is essential to maintain that tone.
Compressor pedals compress your tone to get a low fi sound such heard by black metal groups, The Microphones, and Ween.
Jose Rogers
why waste more than 100 bucks for something you can get for less than 50, you make no sense >muh quality
it's the fucking same thing
Elijah Price
I like the feel and sound of jazzmasters, but the tele look is more appealing. Is there a compromise?
Blake Hill
i get weird and nervous when practicing guitar or bass
i hate fucking up and i hate practicing even though i love the idea of playing an instrument
does anyone know this feel
Aiden Moore
Cheap pedals often introduce noise. Haven't played one that didn't. I have a donner looper coming so I'll see if the new generation of Chinese clones is any better (doubt it)

opening track is a fucking spectacle good stuff throughout but Teeth Like God's Shoeshine is the best indie guitar song I ever heard
Tyler Price
I pluck with my fingers to make bassy sounds. It is really fun.
I get this feel anytime I know anyone is listening, whether they are in another room or close by. Also anytime someone ask me to sing(which I can't), I get really passive agressive and defensive about why I don't want to.

Eli Gray
I got really into jamiroquai and sang along for a year. Also classic country. Try to match timbre, pitch, and inflection. Don't listen to singers with shitty voices like Mointain Goats or Bob Dylan anymore .
I've been working on writing melodies and have struggled but I seemed to get better recently. vocaroo.com/i/s0PJtSu9HwlQ
Warning: I write normie tier acoustic pop.
Leo Jackson
Sounds pretty good man. Inspires me to learn to sing. When I sing along to the radio on the way to work I feel like I sound great but when I just sing along to my acoustic guitar it always sounds awful and I can't sing and play at the same time well yet
Kevin Jackson
Thanks.
It will come, learn some simple covers like iron and wine or city and colour. Something with a simple strum pattern. Really play-singing has the most to do with your right hand and ability to count multiple rhythms at the same time. Kind of like drummers do. You're counting with your right hand, left hand, and mouth at the same time. Drummers count with every limb at the same time.

DAILY REMINDER: If your gear was made anywhere other than america you will never be good. If you use strings lighter than 10's you will never be good If you think Billy Gibbons is talented you will never be good If you play a gibson or a fender you will never be good If you use any pedal other than an od (only one) you will never be good

Looking at getting a used Cort M600 for $300. Good deal?
Jayden White
Yea! That works, if your image can withstand the color.
>individual saddles for intonation could be an American Fender and is still a better instrument.
Dominic Murphy
Barrel saddles are straight up sexy though.
Parker Wright
>I care more about aesthetics than function
Aaron Wright
Not the guy you're arguing with, but you can intonate 3 barrel bridges. Just takes a lot of patience and a few tricks. Plus, you can buy compensated saddles.
Cameron Gomez
No fuck off
Nolan Moore
>you can intonate 3 barrel bridges Elaborate.
Grayson Campbell
Oh sorry, I forgot /gg/ is extremely autistic. My bad guys.
Julian Robinson
I don't know how to elaborate on that. It can be done. THe most common trick is to bend the middle screw, making the middle barrel sit crooked. It wouldn't have lasted this long if it was impossible to intonnate.
Jack Taylor
>I forgot /gg/ is extremely autistic. dont let it happen again
Do your homework, but in general Cort has some tremendous values. They are the factory that OEMs the G&L Tribute series. I have a G260 that I love. I would love to also own a G280 (Superhawk knockoff).
Jayden Harris

I will assume it can't be done unless you can prove otherwise.
Leo Diaz
Just look it up fool. I don't have to prove shit.
Daniel Long
Sounds like you're just making this up really
Aiden Wright
I'm not playing this game with you tonight.
Easton Scott
Matin Courtney from Real Estate uses one of those. Yay.
Thomas Bailey
Not him. I can't wrap my head around the concept of precise intonation with only 3 saddles. It seems logically impossible.
Joseph Collins
>*Update Fuck the Petruccis. They suck tone like a sponge. I'm back to max-grip Jazz IIIs.

Mason Wood
How long do you think it took you to learn to sing? I'm also terrible at singing, and I really can't tell if when I sing along to songs I get any better. I feel like I can't do a vocal vibrato for shit, have no idea how others do it. I can do this forced warbly thing that makes me thing of Marc Bolan, but that's it.
Landon Cooper
I just started learning guitar a few weeks ago. Any tips for barre chords? This is for full barres using F/B. I can get the sound clearly out without using fingers 2-4. It's when I add in those fingers that they bend awkwardly and mute/buzz the shit out of everything. What I've found so far:
>justinguitar finger stretching exercises >playing EAD with fingers 2-4 to get them working better >doing the A chord as a bar to get used to the amount of pressure etc
I try to dedicate 5-10 minutes a day to focusing solely on them but my progression seems to have halted. It feels like its more a matter of my fingers not having enough flexibility which may just take time?
Jaxon Taylor
Can someone suggest me a good book/website/channel on learning the bass? Got a cheap one for Christmas.
Joshua Moore
>I try to dedicate 5-10 minutes a day Found your problem
Chase Smith
That's just on the barre chords. I typically practice about an hour a day with a mixture of chords/scales/songs.
Sebastian Thomas
Anyone else find this B chord a struggle? I can’t stretch my third finger far enough but my pinky isn’t strong enough to get a decent barre going. I’be lost finger strength as recovering from a wrist fracture so that doesn’t help.
I could before the wrist fracture. Finding it a bastard now. Think I need to go back to newfag finger stretching exercises.
Ryder Watson
I'd just barre the D, G and B strings with my ring finger and fret the A string with my index for that.
Nicholas Smith
Ahh, understandable. Just do stretches.
Charles Clark
Oh, wait, that's exactly what the image says to do. Derp.
Jaxon Stewart
Who's your favorite composer, /gg/?
Kevin Martinez
I find the b lydian chord hard to play
Asher Walker
eh, don't sweat it, keep learning bro.
Easton Allen
Ignore this idiot, everyone knows the P stands for Les Paul. Not Paul Reed Smith. Les Paul was fundamental in musical and guitar innovation for his entire life, Paul Reed Smith couldn't even pick a good scale length.

Matthew Adams
What can be done about the over-inflated second hand instrument market? Even new instruments aren't worth too much considering the diminishing quality and relevance of guitar/bass.
Eli Johnson
Except I was specifically asking about how it looks? Is it because of the seafoam green or the maple fingerboard on the seafoam green?
