I remember this personality. Welcome back.

you're a little off tempo, but it sounds nice :)

I want some fat hammers from nowhere, which I'm not getting with a single.

Neck humbuckers are muddy as fuck.

Why the ashtray on the Tele?

stfu you're 14

no

I guess he wants the bridge pickup to sound like shit, to be unable to properly palm mute and lose all the dynamics of playing near the bridge.

ok

Teles are ok but I like curvy bodies

How do I get good at learning to sing and play at the same time

>just practice, be good at guitar

Yes obviously but what are some specific drills and things I can do to refine this ability?

practice with a metronome to get a solid sense of rhythm. one of the reasons it's hard to play and sing at the same time is because you have to think about the playing. if you play long enough and practice regularly with a metronome you should have no problem with it later.

you're 14 years old and you're not supposed to be posting here

Do you have anything to contribute to this thread?

you're underaged stfu

you don't contribute stfu

if mods knew you were a little kid they would ban you

if mods knew you were spamming like a retard they would ban you kill yourself

why are you doing this man?

you shouldn't be here because you're a 14 year old kid

What kind of guitar is this? That's a sexy shape.

Any anons have one of these? I love the look of a nice wood grain and a thin clear coat. I would want to have a locking tremolo installed. Never heard anything about chapman guitars. If this one sucks an alternative would be appreciated. Preferably in the same price range.

>tfw the old personalities had better conversations

I'm learning guitar. I know how to play saxophone, but this is my first sting instrument. I'm using justinguitar. Why don't I learn the actual notes? How do I read scale charts like pic related? Are chords the same pitch/sound as the root note they're named after?

Attached: 5.png (610x1079, 185K)

I don't believe anyone could be that happy while holding an Ibanez.

Sax is daft and requires you to think absolutely at all times. Guitar allows you to consider relative pitch, instead.

Basically, if you you move those scale shapes up or down the neck, they'll still apply perfectly, they'll just be in different keys.

Anons never told me why i made a bad choice.

>tfw 3 months since last gig
>tfw 6 months since last time I got laid

musician's life was meant to be different

Tidy up them cables boy

Also hows the strap lock holding now?

musicians don't get laid anymore, they just sit in front of computers

should be self-evident

Same as everyone else, then.

For something recorded off the floor with no effects, mixing, leveling, it sounds pretty nice.
Maybe next time do some vocal warmups

it looks like a nice bass to me. a few too many strings for my taste but that's just me.

Play in a cover band. No one gives a shit about hearing some plebs "originals" that much. If you can play a bunch of Fleetwood Mac and Journey, you will get actual cash/respect from venue owners and an armada of 40 year old pussy.

yeah pretty much

Uh...fellas...is this fixable? If so how?

Attached: 15222294477543286571530863012626.jpg (3036x4048, 3.66M)

I actually gave up cover bands for playing originals with a band that actually got their shit together and were playing ~50 shows a year.
Originals are far more fun, better gigs, better road trips, better after parties, better memories.
I really got tired of playing cover shows and its 3 hour long sets. Getting paid was nice but by the time I'm done playing there are 20 people left and you don't really socialize. Plus all the musicians have shit personalities and its hard to find normal guys.

you can probably open up the back and just push it back in place without even having to remove the speaker

Take amp apart
Take cover of grill off
Take staples out
Re stretch grill
Put new staples in
Put grill over back on

>giving a fuck about the aesthetical state of your cab

cute

if it's smothering the speaker it's probably muffling the sound a bit

>not giving a fuck about the aesthetical state of your cab

t. punk "musician"

When you load it in and out of a vehicle 5 times and its scratched to shit you kind of stop giving a fuck.
If its just sitting pretty in your bedroom then you stop giving a fuck even more unless its some stupid boutique stuff.

why don't you have a v-amp /gg/?

Attached: mesa.jpg (500x375, 30K)

you mean v-twin? v-amp is that behringer preamp

>you mean v-twin
that's the one

You put it in an amp travel case you mong. How cheap can you get and still expect to get payed?

Aesthetics are important. It's like saying that you shouldn't care about a chip in your tooth. Just as your music is an extension of yourself, your gear is your arm with which you paint. Care for the appearance of all that you are involved with, because everything you touch is also you.

How poor grammar and spelling can you have and still expect to be taken seriously?

Aesthetics, sure. But there is the annoying overly careful attitude of certain type of people. Once you start treating your gear like its a pet and not a tool to express yourself you start missing the point.

If aesthetics are important, then he should go through the modest effort to tighten the facade of his amp.

It's okay. They're made in World Musical Instruments, just like Schecters, so you can expect good craftsmanship.
Quality control depends on the company. Schecter usually charges more for their instruments, because they take a bit more time with quality control. Not sure about Chapman, so be sure to check them out in person.
Really, if you like wood grain finishes and trems, you can also check out the Schecter Banshee or whatever series they got going.
Chapmans ain't a bad little brand. I personally hate the inlay thing they have going on, so there's that.
There are a few more companies that have their guitars made in that factory, but I don't remember anymore, so that's why my main comparison was with Schecter. I also own one, so I'm a bit biased.

It's okay user, it's just that your opinions are wrong

Attached: YBkz0iT.png (734x414, 113K)

Just buy an Agile.
Made in the same factory, cheaper for the specs you get, and don't come with those dumb fucking infinity inlays

Has it occurred to you that the guy you're replying to might not want an L{ style guitar?

*LP

They don't just sell LP guitars

Mate of mine has a Chapman.
Good guitar, decent sound for the money. Looks awful but it's just preference.

Well posting a pic of one while you suggest them doesn't really give that impression, I don't see why you didn't just post a pic of a non LP Agile then

If he'd posted a picture of a non-LP Agile, you'd just be having a go at him for posting an Agile Stratocaster:
>Has it occurred to you that the guy you're replying to might not want a strat style guitar?

Well look at the pic he posted, it's obviously not a LP style guitar, so assumptions can be made that the type of guitar he's originally posting is the type he's looking for

I didn't have any already saved

It was to give an idea at the type of specs they offer for the price point.

Next time just post cute anime grils.

No thanks, I'm not autistic

I still think you're better off talking about playing guitar than complaining about nothing.

Anyone else play in all fourths?

I've written a chord generator if you need to know how to play six-string barres (there are a lot).

>Not autistic

>Doesn't post cute anime grils
Bad news user you have the 'tism hard

SAMS BAN IS MORE THAN A YEAR OLD LMAO
