Guys how do i motivate myself? Im like Ace Frehley or all the other greats who were insanely gifted but pissed it all away for girls and booze.
I have lots of time to practice but dont suggest cuck shit like 10hour scale practice.
Bentley Foster
Maybe not a high IQ, but Frank Gambale and John McLaughlin couldn't understand what he was playing. And they've played with every giant from Miles to Chick Corea.
Robert Garcia
>Im like Ace Frehley or all the other greats who were insanely gifted but pissed it all away for girls and booze. Gifted? He could barely maintain an average picking technique. You need another role models.
Andrew Thomas
A good way to practice/stay in shape is to learn songs or parts of songs and play along with the recording. Keeps your timing in check too and is much more fun then practicing scales or whatever over and over. But some of that is good too.
Joseph Morgan
I don't know if the could understand. I remember McLaughlin saying "I would steal from you if I knew what you were doing", but that's because Holdsworth came with his own kind of harmony. It was actually not new harmony, but very unknown outside classical circles.
Jack Cooper
Holdsworth was beyond them desu. He probably confused them with his fucked unorthodox style. He never learnt proper theory, just invented an autistic system based on interval permutations and went from there.
Sebastian Howard
>It was actually not new harmony, but very unknown outside classical circles. Chick Corea surely was aware of it at the time, just as musicians he played with must have to been an extent. I'll forever be grateful for his contributions to the instrument.
Henry Green
>Chick Corea surely was aware of it at the time It was developed a little earlier than that, maybe 60 years.
Liam Morgan
>He never learnt proper theory, just invented an autistic system based on interval permutations and went from there Please don't do this.
Wyatt Brown
Alright, so, how come no one except Bill Connors wrote anything similar or improvised and saw harmony as they did?
Gavin Hill
>open tuning >weird old black guy >watch video of one of his songs >its mindboggling good
Jonathan Young
>how come no one except Bill Connors wrote anything similar in mainstream jazz? Fix'd.
Noah Russell
>pissed it all away for girls and booze. i... don't see what your problem is
maybe just practice to such a degree that you can make women's panties fly with your sick skillz
Allan never knew theory in the traditional sense, he had a practical sense of theory and invented his own system but "book" theory no.
Jackson Miller
>still falling for the vagina meme
Jayden Lewis
That old black guy played with Ornette Coleman. Pat Metheny did as well. I can't recommend those albums enough.
Sebastian Phillips
>Allan never knew theory in the traditional sense Again, please don't. This is true for someone like Jimi Hendrix, Brian Eno, Chris Carter (Throbbing Gristle). Allan didn't just dream of some radical improvisational concepts, skipped blues and jazz theory and it just came to him. As he explained, he gave names that made sense to him for some already established terms.
Daniel Thompson
Mainstream jazz? Bill Connors and Allan Holdsworth? What?!
Colton Wilson
I don't really care what you think, he explains his unique approach in the video.
Brayden Hernandez
>I don't really care what you think Great argument. Good thing I saged.
Henry Cruz
I'm not here to argue, I know I'm right and just stating the facts.
Charles Evans
Weren't they playing in big jazz festivals?
Charles Carter
...
Noah Smith
Great. I don't understand why you felt at all defensive.
Landon Davis
>I know I'm right and just stating the facts without any backup nor quote, just believe me, because I'm an anonymous poster.
Alexander Hall
Are you retarded?
Michael Wright
Let's stop all the arguing in this fine thread. Jazz sucks so let's move on lol!
What's your favorite brand of strings, guys?
Matthew Perez
I'm , but not . It's pointless having a conversation about anything with you, because you clearly don't want one. >I don't really care what you think
Wyatt Walker
sweet sweet honey
Tyler Robinson
>Holdsworth shows polytonal scales, but he doesn't know the name, therefore he doesn't know theory.
James Butler
That's what I said. Practically, he knows theory from his own interval permutation system, but he doesn't know conventional BOOK theory. Fucking hell you're on the spectrum aren't you? I said this in the same post I linked you to.
You're the one the initiated, I was never interested in your opinion.
Ian Gomez
>Polytonal scale not traditional harmony. He couldn't find the proper notation on the most commonly used jazz harmony, but he did something that it is well described in classical harmony books.
Blake Mitchell
cool...
Joseph Phillips
Why are most jazz musicians white nowadays when they were all black before? This is problematic
Luke Russell
You are american, right?
Michael Jackson
French canadian
Isaac Wright
Oh. In that case, I don't know, but I know a lot of black jazz players.
Brandon Clark
are they smelly?
Aaron Phillips
It's weird, in my city it's almost like there are two jazz scenes. The majority non-black hipster scene and then the black scene which seems to value traditional jazz a bit more. The divide honestly is problematic, I wish there was more intermingling. You wouldn't think it's still so segregated .
Leo Lewis
racist libcucks made it so
Charles Turner
I wanna go solid state with my next amp head, whats the best choice for playing metal? I was thinking a Randall rx series
Christian Adams
fucking checked. holsdworthfag strikes again, posers, numales and that annoying mexican btfo once more.
Nathaniel Mitchell
It turned out that he's a brainlet in the Sammy tier, but with more practice.
Liam Cruz
>solid state >for playing metal You're gonna have a bad time.
Joshua Torres
how do i stop from fucking touching this thing i just wanna peel it off so bad and my finger's wriggling like a caterpillar ready to burst from its cocoon
Owen Young
>recreates holdsworth note for note by ear >sammy tier brainlet Somebody sounds jealous lmmaaaooooo holdsworthfag is best on gg, but i know thats not saying much. He was shredding some fucked classical thing the other day it was insane.
Ayden Baker
Sammy does everything by ear. >He was shredding some fucked classical thing the other day it was insane. wat
Josiah Wilson
Explain I have a hot ass pickup and a high end cabinet, does that count for anything?
Caleb Cook
Your pedals are more important.
Carson White
Tube screamer is the only pedal i really use
Ryan Morris
brazilnut (i.e. you) can't even recognize an E major chord when it's used in any way other than the standard rehashed rock progressions. You can rag on shred-dude all you wnat for having a shitty online personality but he's definitely the most technically skilled guitarist in here
Adrian Gomez
Does anybody have experience with dual truss rods? Do I just make equal adjustments to each rod? I got this Guild 12 string where the high e bottoms out at the 3rd, 6th, 7th and probably more frets, so I'm trying to fix that.
Eli Ward
I had to put up with a plastercast on my left wrist for nine weeks, you get used to it. Guitar will aid your recovery quickly at least, but don’t attempt to play with it on - I damaged the finish on my guitar neck doing that.
Evan Allen
I'm not the Samlet, but I know the tier of musicians. Post the classical thing you are saying, you have my attention.
Oliver Flores
Ya it was some thing he made up with sweeping/hybrid picking just to a metronome. Was fucked. Sammy is shit and if you think the two are even comparable you're fucking deaf. Theres a difference between noodling like a 12 year old around the pentatonic and recreating fucking holdsworth solos note for note or whateber the fuck he was doing yhe other day bra
Adam Powell
And what amp are you using now? The distortion of a solid state amp is not going to cut it with only a Tube Screamer.
Robert Gray
You mean the string skipping arpeggio that I had to tab for you?
Grayson Diaz
Nigger what are you talking about? It was some bach sounding thing that went into full on 6 strings sweeps at like 220 bpm it was some shitty vocaroo or clyp link shi5 was gnarly af
Jackson Powell
Post link so I can confirm.
Kevin Parker
Confirm what?
Jason Wright
But superstrat isn't lame If I'm not mistaken isn't that used in choir? I think I remembered something which is basically 'support the vocal range who sing the main melody with notes who have perfect consonant harmony with the main vocal' then the teacher guy proceed to ask everyone not in the main melody vocal range to sing the perfect fifth of the main melody or something along the lines. I never join choir though, just something I used to remember in the past while fooling around at school
Sebastian Flores
Confirm that is the same file that I tabbed the intro for you.
Aaron Thompson
I have no clue what youre talking about rn
Colton Barnes
We're talking about metal here, lad. Pedals are shit for getting good metal rhythm tone, you get almost all of it from the amp and use an OD to slightly shape it
Blake Powell
Just post the clip and everything will become clear.
Aaron Sanders
What clip you tard? It was some vocaroo throwaway link from like a week ago or more of just shredding some part hed made up. I think youre confuaing me for someone else
Camden Clark
Goddamn you are fucking stupid.
Josiah Harris
>i have lots of practice time but don't want to practice one of the most fundamental guitar aspects for 10 hours
Angel Reed
This
Xavier Torres
Can you two try whatever that was supposed to be, but in English this time?
Jeremiah Young
>confuses me for someone else >DDUURRR SEND ME A LINK OF A TAB I GAVE U OR SOMETHING >U STUPID wtf lol
Matthew Jackson
Imagine that nice lady will give you a coconut oil tug if you practice your scales and arpeggios.
Cameron Price
>I have no ear I think sweep picking sound like Bach I idolize a retard without any theory I think everyone who plays through distortion is good, etc. What a fucking mongoloid.
Dominic Campbell
Being a musician wont get you pussy
t.gigging musician (guitar, lead guitar)
Henry Barnes
brb practicing for 4 hours
Noah Cox
That's why I said "imagine." As in, "pretend."
Noah Ortiz
It'll give them an excuse to give you pussy more readily but only if you're a guy who would've gotten a lot of pussy in the first place. So either way it's of no use to any of us
Robert Campbell
THEY SAID THERE WERE WOMEN BACKSTAGE!!!! REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Brandon Hernandez
All the girls move on to EDM DJs nowadays gramps. Kendrick Lamar and the likes are what's hot
Adam Gray
Ahhh you're sill jealous of holdsworthfag. Well nobody knows about this little arpeggio you tried to tab for us, but goddamn was that bach thing he posted the other night intense. It was sweeping at the end yes, but before it was hybrid picking mixed with economy i think. It was very baroque. Clean af. Wish he was here to btfo your boring fag ass.
Jaxon Rivera
I'm using a 6505 combo, and a Bugera 6262. Failed to mention i dont have a cabinet to play out of at the moment but my next paycheck is going towards an Orange ppc412
Hudson Campbell
>It was very baroque. What a surprise, you have no idea what you are talking about.
Brody Robinson
I've had women approach me after shows, but im too much of an autist and my standards are way too high to get anywhere with them.
Logan Clark
Is bach not from the baroque period? man why are you so butthurt? holdsworthfag really triggers you eh?
Jayden Walker
Baroque is commonly known for "sweeping at the end hybrid picking mixed with economy i think. It was very baroque." I don't like retards, that's all. And I really don't like retards who think they are not. And my friend, you are one.
Lincoln Garcia
I present to you the pinnacle of modern instrumental performance and craftsmanship.
Brayden Brooks
>maple veneer top >craftsmanship
Mason Kelly
Uh ya it was very baroque. The things i mentioned dont negate that fact, despite your angry little nitpick. Youre the fucking tard who thought it was some pussy little arpeggio tab you posted lmao. Now THAT is retarded. Get outta here beta, holdsworthfag wipes the floor with your poser ass haha. Peace.
Owen Gray
>3/4" inch carved maple top
Luke Lewis
It doesn't matter how many times you repeat the word baroque, you don't know what it means. Is there any knowledge that you can share here or you are just here for cocksucking? Sammy can help you with that.
Wyatt Edwards
Ima make a meme:
The virgin tab poser
vs
The chad holdsworthfag
LLLMMMMAAAAAOOOOOOOOOO
Alright i gtg yo bed
John Jenkins
Same fagging is a meme already.
Luke Rogers
Awesome dude now go make a tab for me ahahahahaha that lick was baroque af niigggguuuhhhhhhh bach was like ayo das tight bboooiiiiiiiii
Noah Martin
Sure, post the link and I'll do it. I know you can't :)
Jayden Walker
The Virgin Gibsonfag >muh legacy >muh headstock
The Chad Agile Player >prefers modern quality to dated heritage >doesn't need a name on his headstock to validate his superior performance
Easton Edwards
Now you are improving. That's better.
Hunter Scott
>implying I had any hand in that shit meme Probably a gibsonfag
