Hse's got this frumpy fupa look going on that reminds me of this terrible girlpop band I saw earlier this week. I thought these people prided themselves on their uniqueness.

I can't speak for the ditto x4 but it seems awesome. The Phase 95 is amazing! Very nice small pedal with plenty of possibility.

where have you been Samuel?

Reminder that you posted this picture 4 hours ago and have been LARPing ever since.

So much wasted time... could have made a pedal or something.

> doing anything other than practicing something hobbitualy =/= wasted time

Guitar IS a tactless instrument, but what you're describing is more of a user-end problem.

that's some of the most stupid shit i've ever read in here

this, it actually helps with motivation

expensive guitar vs expensive amp
which should I buy first

both

guitar

>expensive guitar
hands down
...then play on a g1xion or a mooer g100

amp

I think I finished my latest production
There's 11 tracks of electric guitar on it
clyp.it/grkfz3fv

if i was just going for a good tone, amp
if i was a beginner, guitar

>tfw too plebby for the songbook I just bought

Pic related. Might have another look in a year.

needs mixing so i can actually hear what's going on

Unless you play in a band or live, go for the guitar

doesnt look too hard tempo is 96 for god sake, pitch modifiers are not too shaby either

what do you mean i spent 3 fucking days eqing it carefully

cmon i can hear every instrument there: acoustics, electrics, bass, organ, wind instruments, vocals, drums. you can too

I’ve only been playing guitar for nine months, I think I have just jumped the gun a bit on this one. Still has lots of pretty pictures and song facts for now.

9 months !
lord that shit is 3 months doable , i think you have ADD. stop being lazy.

>3 months to play like one of the best folk fingerstyle guitarists of all time

Yeah ok kid. I have heard people in here play by the way.

is that mac demarco

>"finished"
>43 seconds
wew

i was thinking if that composition deserves longer parts

This.

Everything is so unbalanced it's ridiculous. I don't think guitar tracks from Converge are nearly as agressive as yours. I think I hear a synth, I can hear the clicks from an acoustic being strummed(left channel is off time).

they deserve shorter parts

I was restringing my mitchell md100 and noticed the saddle was broken. I called a repair shop and got quoted that to replace it would cost about $120, which is almost as much as my guitar would be new.

Would you guys just get a new guitar or get it fixed?

kinda looks like him in the thumbnail

yeah the acoustics are just a texture
what do you mean by unbalanced
is that a compliment on the agressive guitar sound
theres brass and an organ, no synth

clyp.it/ejhiviyr

remove squier add ESP

I don't have an ESP

I would call someone else.

Now that sounds good, a little too much ambience for my taste or a slight phasing issue or something. In the mix though, not just guitars it sounds bad. Are you using limiters? Use less, and roll some of the level knobs back.

>stringjoy
Bought electric strings from them once, regretted it, were the worst electric strings I've ever played. Sounded like plastic or some shit, was disgusting. And they were 11 bucks per and I bought two

I would buy a new saddle and put it on myself wtf
why are guitar players so afraid to so much as pick up a fucking bottle of super glue? yall weak

how do i improve my bass playing? like knowing how to improv and do fills and such

I love mine

I need to always loosen the strings when I'm settin up intonation and action right?

I think I realized the guitar isn't for me. I'm a mediocre player and everything I write is just terribly uninspired and boring. Maybe I should try the piano or something, but I give up on guitar. It's a shame I've wasted so many years being absolute shit at it.

no

wish I had taken up the piano

Scales, patterns, keys, arepggios, know how and when to use chord tones.

It needs to be tuned to pitch, unless you have a floyd rose or acoustic where you can't intonate with a tensioned string. Both adjustments will change pitch, make gradual adjustments and retune.

this. fuck guitar so much

so there's no risk of breaking the strings or something?

Unless you do something asinine, then no. Even then, I'd buy you lunch if you could pull it off.

>defeatist shills
are they migrating along with Sup Forums too?

Guitar music is over, user. Just accept it already.

You can't just make rock music these days with guitars/bass/drums. I've been trying to adapt and incorporate guitar in to other types of music like electronic. It's just unavoidable these days. People don't want the same shit that was made between the 60s-90s. They want something new and fresh.

>guitar is a tactless instrument

What do you even mean by this shit? Stop regurgitating pseudo-intellectual contrarian Frippery.

What makes guitar a tactless instrument but piano tactful? Does a bassoon have tact but a cello not? How can an inanimate object even possess tact?

If you can't feel a message conveyed by an instrument you must not actually play one.

this just means that people who weren't actually interested stopped playing, it's actually a good thing

Just recently started writing songs but fuck me is my voice horrendous, struggle to properly project my voice. Any tips?

That doesn’t answer my question. Explain how an instrument can inherently be “tactless”.

Not if other genres of music are gearing up. Guitar is joining bass and percussion status.
Not that it's a bad thing.

>this just means that people who weren't actually interested stopped playing
unfortunately that was everyone ;__;

Can a message be tactless? Can words be tactless? Do you even know what tact is?

>answers with rhetorical bullshit

Thought as much, in other words you are talking out your arse.

True but rock as a medium still even has plenty of ground to cover. There's still new areas to explore.
And the great thing about the Internet is now you can cater to even the smallest niches

That doesn't answer my questions. Are you autistic or just a troll? You're obviously a brainlet.

It's more about frontloaded guitar songwriting than anything else. The instrument is marooned in a forest of tires song writing methodologies.

No, I can see through your vaguery and called you out on it. An instrument cannot inherently be tactless. A user may play with or without tact as with any other pursuit requiring skill.
