Ok /gg/uys, imagine Fiesta Red. If you could choose, would you get a black pickguard or white?

>>126736014
white

>>126736014
Definitely white.

>>126736014
its gotta be white black seems too eggy

>>126736014
if u play in public in a dark-ish place, black, because white will just scratch people's eyes
yet I don't understand people who buy red guitars

>get a wood tone, green/teal/turqoise for well-lit places

did they change anything with the new models? because they don't look cute anymore, they look like toys

I'm bricked up but I can't cum

>>126735936 (OP)
Found an older gibson I wanted a suspiciously good price but... it has a partial neck break. It was repaired okay going off of the photos.
Is it still a cop or something to stay the hell away from. I've seen a couple 57-60s in videos with headstock break repairs that seem to be chugging fwiw

>>126736322
>just replace the neck
>oh it's a gibson not a fender
>bad luck bro

>>126736190
I don’t know, I specifically wanted one of the Vista series ones and not one of the newer Squier ones of the batch of Fender ones just cuz I like how Japanese Fender necks feel

>>126736322
I wouldn’t touch it unless I knew exactly who repaired it and could see some references of his work. If it’s repaired by a guy who knows what he’s doing then I wouldn’t mind if it’s priced accordingly, if it’s repaired by a literal who Joe Schmoe in his garage then no way

>>126736363
have you got any idea if Japanese Fenders are on par with American made ones?

>>126736399
Checked
What if I crack it again like it's a crawfish head and have a luthier redo it instead

>>126736457
Assuming they used wood glue you're more likely to cause a new break than to separate the already broken parts.

>>126736322
I fw headstock breaks. The world of repairing crap is a lot more difficult than that. You'll have to fuss with the fill and finish if you're chasing collector value. If it's like 20-30 year old, just fill it with something that looks cool like Japanese kintsugi pottery.

>>126736322
if it plays ok thats just added characte

>>126736400
I’d say yes absolutely other than their electronics. They use cheap pots, cheap wiring, and depending on the model the pickups can be decent or cheap. I don’t think it’s an entirely necessary upgrade to replace the electronics as the factory ones are mostly “good enough” but it is definitely an upgrade and the first thing I’d do if I had one I really liked and wanted to keep. With Japanese Fenders generally the older the better, they’ve cheaped out more over the years but that doesn’t mean newer ones are bad at all, just better candidates to gut the electronics. Japanese Fenders also use a lot of basswood bodies which turns some people off because it’s a softer wood and will ding easier but that’s something I genuinely don’t even think about or care

>>126736457
I mean if you really want to pay someone reputable to do it right go for it. I’d prefer some milled out wood and splints glued in like these rather than just glueing it and clamping it but that’s probably just because I’d be paranoid

thank you very much for the insight
I don't mind replacing electronics
>Japanese Fenders also use a lot of basswood bodies which turns some people off
sounds cool, I ain't about furniture even though I love 2010's Dell high end laptops because they look like furniture lol

>I've stayed up all night laboriously mulling over your inquiry regarding the repaired gibbon, Niles, and i concluded youre a broke boy whos greed will get the best of them

>15 minutes into practice and my cat is throwing a tantrum because he is jealous of the guitar
this fucking animal what the fuck is his problem

>>126736799
mine hates when i bend especially past the 12th fret

>>126736799
your cat isn't impressed, he's gonna scratch you, piss in your shoes, sleep on your face and suffocate you then eat your dead body, steal your keys, find a woman cat, start a family

really digging putting a dirt pedal in front of my bass, just boosts everything gives it a real warm touch

I would avoid it like the plague.
But then, some say those repaired Gibsons turn out to be more stable.

>>126737164
well you don't have to fuck em

>>126736014
Depends on the shape of the guitar and the shape&size of the pickguard.

>>126737340
I'd like no pickguard for this one thanks.

>>126737340
Fiesta Red+white looks classic, but with Black it's kind of slick and almost shredder 80ish to me..without being neon or bright. And then there are weird variations of the colors itself. Like Oympic White. It doesn't remain the same if nitro. Love these two.

>>126736014

I've been going through a lot of Youtube shit lately. All the greatest hits and memes and gear reviews and lessons. And my final conclusion is that everybody on earth mogs me. Why do I even still play?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPSFVOXNv9M

>>126737609

Red is my favorite color, but I only have a sunburst guitar because it matches with everything. A little red in it though (3 tone).

>>126737948

>>126737976
oh ok

>>126737965

What shade though?

>>126738051
I mentioned Fiesta Red above. But I like the translucent types too (Crimson Transparent Fenders or Cherry SGs and 335s).

woah

Do you guys put your /gg/ content creation on your resumes?

i wrote and recorded a full demo today with my vocals. but im not going to share it

Was Kurt good guitarist or merely efficient?

>>126738175
Not a great guitarist, but amazing songwriter... or at least had a good ear for melody and hooks. Lyrics are a tossup.
But that's all you really need..and it's probably the hardest thing.

>>126738175
He was good enough to get what he wanted out of it. That's all you really have to be.

>>126738175
He was good enough to kill 80s MTV fag metal, so that's something

>>126736322
>Found an older gibson I wanted a suspiciously good price but.
>partial neck break
it was glued on crooked probably

I have this loud, annoying crackling in my daw whenever I play guitar that started appearing recently. Yesterday I tried changing the sampling rate from 44.1k to 48k and the crackling pretty much disappeared but then I got no audio from chrome. And I checked the sample rate on my pc and it said 48k also so I have no idea what the fuck is going on.

>>126738609
try not being a non-white

>try to use Vampr
>have never had anyone respond to any message I've ever sent
Yeah great app

Truly a good idea

>>126738609
I had this too, turns out it was the Fuzz tone for a Black Keys song on Rocksmith

>>126738787
kek

>>126738718
Is that some jeet coping I hear?

>>126738849
I don't use rocksmith though. Really have no idea where it even came from, a month ago it was fine and now I can't touch it without crackling. I didn't change any settings either.

>>126738912
Sure it's not one of your cables going out?

>>126738911
I've had better luck on fucking Craigslist

>>126738932
Nope, all connected. My guess is it's the sample rate cause changing it fixed the crackling but I don't know what to about non daw audio being silent.

What chord is this?
I have my guitar tuned in all fourths, and I accidentally played this (Standard tuning in pic, but the same notes)
I'm scratching my head as to what the fuck this chord could be. It sounds nice, I just can't figure out what to call it.

>>126739110
update/rollack audio drivers? Fuck knows could be anything by the sounds of it

>>126737340
Fiesta red is purely a fender thing, most likely a strat, other brands don't really use that name even if the color is similar/same

>>126738609
Restart your computer.
Unplug the interface and plug it back in.
Make sure no other programs are using your sound when you change the sample rate.

Depending where are you located, here's an interesting guitar you might like instead:
https://gypsyguitar.de/guitars/aria/12378/aria-ta-tr1

>>126738609
All guitars do this?
All DAWs do this?
All ports on the audio interface do this?
It's not the sample rate. Also you're not supposed to have other software running in the background. It's your guitar/DAW only and nothing else.
Discord wants access to your sound cards, Chrome probably wants access to your sound cards, I know Steam has its own sound card to avoid such an issue. Discord for instance doesn't interfere with your DAW or music software but if you open Discord while it's running it immediatly asks you if you want to connect your input card to Discord. Pretty sure then Chrome is misbehaving, it's not too late to shift to a Firefox fork of your liking.

>>126739282

I looked at the pictures and there are pictures listed from two guitars, one has a white line around the f-holes and the other doesn't. Before purchasing I'd contact the shop to ask speficially what kind of guitar they actually selling atm

Boomers are actually pieces of shit when it comes to pricing guitar stuff. Sometimes i see even MIMs reaching $2000 levels if it's even remotely rare or limited...and no one's buying. They remain listed.

>>126739575
And then other boomers and pawn shops copy said pricing and we never have nice things again

>>126739575
Stop shopping for boomer guitars and you won't have this issue

I got bored of this boomer instrument and got a keyboard

>>126739646
Not buying guitars from cultures who don't even listen to guitar music.

>>126739201
I hope I don't gotta do that, sounds hella annoying.

>>126739246
I'll try that when I get home. I didn't even think of that.

>>126739295
Haven't tried with other guitars but I imagine it'd be the same, and I only use one daw. Thing is I've been playing along to yt in chrome the whole time since I started using it and I've had the crackling thing happen a few times but eventually it's always gone. Even now it only started appearing recently.

>>126739248
Thanks. Makes sense. I thought it was sus4 with something added but couldn't figure it out. Still learning.

Going to my 3rd lesson today and I'm still not sure what exactly sure what I should be asking this guy to show me or what I'm supposed to be learning. Maybe because it's only 30 minutes but I definitely feel I need to come up with a solid goal to work towards. I guess I'll ask for shapes or work on chords with him.

>>126740042
I'd switch a teacher
I've given a few lessons myself and I always did 1.5 hour minimum. If the pupil wanted then two hours for the same price.
With 30 minutes you can barely sit down

>>126740042
If you're an absolute beginner I'd recommend looking at Scotty West's Absolutely Understand Guitar course on YouTube because it's real theory heavy. It'll help you to know what you don't know, so you can then ask questions to fill in the gaps.
Stuff like shapes and chords are just rote memorization at your stage, and you can really just go off a chart online. The biggest help you'll get from a real life lesson is more personalized instruction like advice on technique, rhythm, ear training, etc.
I'll also mirror what the other anon said. 30 minutes just isn't long enough to properly convey much of anything especially if that's only once a week.

>>126740071
>>126740098
Im a bass player but I'll look into a longer session. I also felt the same way. 30 minutes just feels like barely enough time to scratch the surface. We've had good conversations that have led to me learning new things but as soon as the ball gets rolling my time is up. I pretty much understood after my 2nd lesson that I really needed to find something solid to work on cause everything he's showing me now, Im in the processing of learning already.

That's bogus and it'll only limit you. I've never seen a good player that didn't have glaring "bad" habits. You have to do what works for you.

which guitarists use p90's?

>>126741128
Sure, but there are objectively bad practices for playing guitar otherwise there wouldn't be instructors. Everyone would just 'do what works for you,' and we'd be in some relativist hellhole. A good teacher can differentiate between benign quirks and poor form.

I don’t think he was really a shredder at all if that’s your measuring stick but he he was really good at making memorable and catchy melodies and songwriting.
So I’d say he was pretty good

I saw a bass with an active passive switch so that's pretty cool I think. As long as you don't need the batteries that's fine with me.

Two steps forward, one step back. Every rush of adrenaline and discovery and self confidence is met by a day or two of struggle and self doubt.

Originally got it bc i was going to try it on guitar but i decided to stick with bass. While using it on the bass think its cutting some of the lows off and i googled it. Tends to happen to anyone who tries to use it with a bass.Theres a different pedal called the Keely phat mod, that's a mod made for bass using the same setup as the bd2, from what I can tell. I got that coming instead.

>>126744032
Stop shilling. If it was up to me you would be permabanned and your neetbux would be revoked. What are you trying to accomplish by spamming your actual dogshit playing?

I found a random dad on youtube (probably a tech) who builds those shit-ass chinese guitar kits on amazon and apparently the teles and strats are okay.
I want to get and do a natural shellac finish on one now, but I know off the bat I'm going to have to learn about soldering and get decent tele pickups in there. Is it worth it to replace the shitass 250k pots while I'm at it?
I'll have to replace the neck with a fender neck too but that's not too bad.

p.s. fucking astounded chink knockoffs use actual maple tops whereas epiphone has been caught gluing on wraps to fake tops in recent years.

I'm keen to have play-along ability, and the built-in interface so I can finally record again, even if it's EQ-less (hopefully I can at least set the input gain so it doesn't clip).
Then you can have another person posting crap with undeserved confidence, aren't you stoked?

>>126744514
start producing funk. those riffs sound amazing when in context. get yourself a midi keyboard and produce funk disco tracks, then see what her opinion is
>>126744186
no offense your playiing is 90% unintelligible nonsense.
if you learned to play conventionally, instead of doing 10 minute schizo jams people could appreciate you more.

>>126744637
you first

>>126743983
I already had the pickguard and the pickup and knob and other strats with full compliments of pickup options.
It's just for fun

>>126744637
I will, a few years ago I used to post pretty regularly but this place was different back then due to the presence of certain people who shall remain un-named.
Vocs were actively discouraged to the point of people intentionally spamming nonsense to get people to stop clicking on them. A lot of people haven't recovered from that era.

>>126735936 (OP)
Is starcaster guy still around?
Saw this on sale, reviews aren't half bad. I saw a conspiracy online that they're made int he same indonesian factory an earlier run of fender starcasters were made. I care less about the provenance and more about playability and sound tho

Yea I dont even bother clicking links anymore because of his terrible playing and spamming every fucking boring thing he does

>>126744390
The tiny braided wiring on these is shit-ass. A pot is a pot imo for the most part, but guitarists use theirs so often and subject them to filthy conditions. That justifies the upgrade. The Fender style kits are more straight forward. You don't have to locate and drill the tailpiece and bridge. You don't have to recut the neck and neck pocket or the headstock blank. You don't need to mask the binding.

But I mean a kit is $60 and the Glarry is $70. It's about wanting to do the process and add your own choices.

In all seriousness, not bad content. Fuck is he a geek though...I guess he's just leaning into it.

Josh Scott is my god and I really want this but I'm afraid I'm falling for hype

>>126744902
It's a really fancy preamp and eq. you don't need it

>>126744922
That’s basically all pedals

>>126744922
don't be daft, I'm a 4chan guitarist. anything more than a Line 6 Spider is excessive
knowing that doesn't quell my GAS

Thoughts? Before I go through the trouble of changing the other 3.

>>126744958
its a little much

>>126744870
Just saw his video, but was the affinity or the classic vibe the good squier knockoff? Based on what geek says it sounds like a pickup swap and new tuners will fix most issues.

Is it normal that the knobs on my bass are so much heavier than my guitars', to the point that I can't do quick pinky rolls on them?

>>126744943
>>126744946
True but I think some pedals fall in "great to have even in the bedroom" and "why would I need this if I'm not performing" and the colour box is the latter. You could get a studio plugin on most any DAW and get the same effect.

>>126744871
He’s been samefagging for years. He’s never gotten better at guitar or at interacting with real people. He needs to be bullied off of the board permanently

I don't even think about pedals at all I got a cheapass mfx stompbox with all the basic bitch effects to play with and use the plug ins when I record or produce music

>>126745051
I've been using korg multi effect pedals for 20 something years.
I had an ax1000g and ax1500g and now I have an ax3000g.

>>126744958
One or two yes, all no.

>>126745051
There's really no reason not to do this. Modulation, Delay, Reverb, etc are all digital anyway and even the cheap multifx from 20 years ago got them right unless they were total shite.

>>126744765

You can get the classic vibe for 300. Skip the affinity.

What does gee gee think about cheap chinese locking tuners? they worth it?

>>126745288
>cheap chinese locking tuners
What could possibly go wrong?

>>126745288
personally i like putting quality parts on my musical instruments.

>>126745300
So far nothing really, they might go bad in a few years but nothing some lubing can't fix

90% of the crap the US buys is chinese, but guitarists want to pay extra for assembled in US of A.

>>126745288
How are they?

>>126745443
Nothing is really wrong with them so far they look good, feel smooth and hold tune fine (tuning problems rarely stem from tuners anyway), the locking mechanism while being convinient isn't a huge improvement like I thought, I could survive with either

>>126745288
Don't like locking tuners in general regardless of country

>>126745443
>90% of the crap the US buys is chinese, but guitarists want to pay extra for assembled in US of A.
I'm open to a lot of places personally. Just not China, if I can help it. A Marshall Origin I got recently is the Vietnam made. I just don't like China specifically. Also, one thing to look out for if you're going with China is if the company actually has some control or staff in China itself. That it's not some shit outsourced to Cort or one of the other big slave labor outfits. That goes for a lot of products. They just outsource a lot of shit and China just cranks them out according to basic plans. But Marshall actually owns their factory in Vietnam. PRS actually owns their factory in Indonesia. In China, only the biggest big wigs tend to have some control, like Apple - and even then, they don't. Foxconn makes their phones, and when the recent tariffs required Apple to start rethinking their manufacturing and moving to India, China tried to block their own products from being moved out. That's some freaky shit where one of the most powerful American companies is held hostage by a foreign State.

>>126745122
>Modulation, Delay, Reverb, etc are all digital anyway
No.
Please learn what your talking about instead of spreading misinformation in an attempt to sound smart. Nobody even knows who you are bro, why do this?

>>126744958
looks much better than the originals yet like that other anon said if you make all of them like that it will be too much
maybe let one be with the collar and the rest without the collar

>>126745122
You're not limited to dsp/cpu power with old fashioned pedals. You're just limited by power outlets. The more effects you have running at once in a digital unit, the more processing power it takes. There's usually some hard coded block from preventing too much at once. Others will throttle your effects. Amp models especially eat up cpu resources, so running one of those + effects doesn't leave room for much without throttling. It's the main reason those high end units like AxeFX or Fender cost so much. Or you're better off doing digital in a full blown computer with massive processing power...but then that's shit for gigging unless you want to look like a retarded nerd.

>>126745288

Guyker has let me down many times. Just save up and get good tuners they make a difference

>>126745786
Well it's just my old side guitar that I rarely play anyway, the only reason I even gave it new tuners was because the old ones were rusty to the point of unusable

sounds the best in your path

I can't even use tortex greens without feeling like I'm going to rip strings out, then again, I have man strength unlike 97% of /gg/

fuck man why can't they make their p90 model with this finish, pinstriping is fucking sick and it needs to be more common

>>126745983
>I can't even use tortex greens without feeling like I'm going to rip strings out

>>126743860

>the stranger on the internet said mean things about my guitar playing
grow up

>>126746001
what will a heavier pick do that a tortex flow or jazz pick can't, keeping in mind you can have sweet, sweeping strums with the heavier picks.

Celluloid or fingers, tortex is for faggots.

>>126746017
I just mean if you're articulating correctly and not using half the broad side of the pick for MAXUMUM ATTTAACCCKKK you wont feel like you're going to rip strings out.

I'm embarrassed to say I paid $20 for a Martin Pick. It's pretty good though. They're made out of the same hardcore plastic used on speedboats for some parts.

>>126746073
I almost spent $15 on a gravity pick but I am a mere mortal

>>126746073
Look at mister fucking money bags over here.
Glad you could join us commoners Mr Rothchild.

>>126745982
I will make you regret this soon.

>>126746073
Is this the same material as Blue Chip picks? They're obviously copying the look at least.

show me some tasty licks

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/_BavirwaNm0

>>126746115
I don't know, never used Blue Chips. It's Torlon. From what I can tell, it's the most durable plastic. So it's usually used in high performance or industrial shit that needs it more than a damn guitar.

>>126746166
cool fretboard
>thumb over neck
ngmi

>>126746185
NTA and I didn't watch the video but this isn't classical guitar mate, thumb over neck allows you to choke in for better vibrato

>>126746166
This guys videos look cool and he has a bunch of really nice guitars I will admit, but his music is the most boring overused blooz shit imaginable

>>126746208
It limits your range of motion and does nothing to provide stability, learn bio-mechanics.
The only time its acceptable is if you are fretting a note with it, otherwise thumb goes behind the middle finger always.

>>126745020
I know this is the truth, but I like to larp that one day I'll play live, so I collect pedals. My most recent was a $300 compressor pedal that I probably will never use.

>>126746221
You spent $300 on a pedal that doesn't do anything?
Wowowow I need to get into the pedal market.
You know that an overdrive with no gain does the same thing as a compressor right?

>>126746219
>learn bio-mechanics.
Not her, but I am now depressed that my hands are only average size. I don't care about shredding, I just want to be able to play big weird chords.

>>126746219
>learn bio-mechanics
lel

>>126746219
You do realize you can switch grips depending on situation right? If I'm doing stuff that relies on a lot of vibrato or really strangled notes, thumb over neck is preferable. It takes less than a milisecond to move the thumb down behind the neck for scales or barre shapes.
stop mimicking youtube and learn how to play a fucking guitar before you insult people you absolute fraud

>>126746240
The o.g. Fulltone OCD is my favorite pedal and I feel like it is all I need, but I keep buy things anyway. Sometimes they have pretty art.

>>126746105
based /x/ lurker

>>126746260
You're really dumb. If your baby fingers can't vibrato you add another finger to the string you simpleton, this isn't some Youtube shit, this is bio-mechanics. Thumb over neck only feels better because you've trained yourself to make it seem that way, I vibrato with no issue at all with my thumb on the back of the neck.

i live in a water city similar to venice and drive a speedboat. it's not legal but the cops can't do shit because my boat is so god damn fast

Please play the riff to mississipi queen with thumb over neck.

Guys my picks have given me microplastic exposure, is it over?

>>126746323
buddy theres micro plastics everywhere, the clouds themself have them, its kinda fucked regardless of what you do

>>126746323
Yup, you're gay now. Have fun playing with your thumb on the back of the neck.

>>126746315
Not your boogeyman faggot. And what did I just say about the ability to move the thumb?
Watch any blues lead player, the thumb is over the neck for choking into vibrato. everyone has different vibrato techniques but immediately insulting people for putting their thumb over the neck is invalid at best.
and if you hear the phrase dunning-kruger often, maybe it should tell you something.

>>126746323
Should have bought the Torlon pick. Guaranteed to not shed the microplastics.

>>126746336

It's over. Might as well double down on sex drugs and rock and roll while you still can

335's are better than Les Pauls
the bigger body might seem like a hindrance but they are much nicer to play seated, and because of the hollow wings they are lighter weight.
They also don't bear the name and signature of another man. I don't know about you guys, but I'm not gay, and I'm certainly not a fan of some Jewish guy from 1950's sped up alvin and the chipmunk fake playing

>>126746363

Thumb over the neck bro

>>126746363
Which model is the small version that looks like an ES 335? ...or is the ES 335 the small version of another model that is bigger?

ES-339, came long after, I think it was introduced in like late-mid 2000s

>>126747109
It doesn't have to be an eagle. It's good thing to support your own country wherever you are as much as you can.
If I was a Mexican and wanted a Classical guitar, I'd probably go to Paracho and buy a guitar there. Everyone and their mom in that town is involved in guitar making somehow. And it'll probably have more soul than the Chinese big brand import you ordered from guitarcenter.com .

>>126747150
mexico has an eagle on their flag too

>>126747143
if it was up your ass you'd know

>>126747157
You got me there.
Alright, if I'm German, I'd buy a Hohner harmonica and not a Japanese or Fender one...which aren't as good anyways.

Telecaster, m'kay guys?

I just realized High Voltage actually has the chords AC/DC in it :)

anything that touches the strings actually creates a difference in tone. My suggestion is to invest in good hardware and ignore the woods/bodies if you want to safe. Don't buy le Mahogany and Swamp Ash body only to put chinesium tuners on them, your instrument WILL suck. Rather invest 80 bucks into proper tuners that will hold tune and let your strings swing properply, same with the bridge and frets. Anything else apart from maybe electronics is pure marketing to get schmucks to pay premium for toan wooooods.

>It's good thing to support your own country wherever you are as much as you can
*he said as his country invited another million illegals in to lower wages even more and give (((landlords))) more oportunities to exploit their power via having 20 people live and pay inside a two bedroom apartment*
fuck that, the west deserves to be taken over by China and its cronies.

>>126747150
>It's good thing to support your own country wherever you are as much as you can
My country is actively trying to make my life as hard as possible for being a straight white male, as far as I'm concerned China and its cronies can gladly take it over.
