First for boobtar

did you guys force yourself to learn new techniques fully even if it's not part of your sound and you don't plan to use them?

what are the chances of me playing a solo like this if i started learning guitar at 28 years old? any late bloomers here that can do something like this? not on princes level but just like an understanding of solo's and how to do them. stuff like this gives me life. I know im far from this but the idea of being able to play like this makes me wanna keep going. the dirty mac song is soo fucking goood

>>127030133 (OP)
That stoptail bridge is ghastly

>>127030159
half of my noodling is with rocksmith and I was forced to learn pinch harmonics and tapping form it... but it made me a better player so I'm not too mad.

Danelectro pedals are gay

need to shit but im too busy bending

>>127027881
mark bass amp. i got one for around 440 and its great. i can plug it into my monitors and play through my headphones

How do I get a cutie patootie rocker girl to be the (good) singer in my band?

>>127030184
2-3 years if you have a good training program. it's easy to waste your early years on guitar learning stuff you don't need or won't use

>>127030231
How do you know what a good training program is?

>>127030184
a year max if you don't practice. A month or two is more realistic.

>>127030263
if you're seeing progress and the material covered fits your goals. personally i don't see any reason to learn modes

I don't think I like strats but I spotted a barely used squier 50 classic vibe at the pawn shop for about 250 under retail.
Is it a cop? I don't want to have to replace pickups or wiring, but I need a new beater and something to noodle on.

>>127030434
nah

>>127030369
Now that I think about it, I'm not sure what material would cover my goals. I guess my main goal is just understanding how to speak through the guitar. I always assumed theory is the answer for that.

>>127030482
everything helps to do that somewhat. in my experience training your ear and composing are the two biggest benefactors to finding your sound. there are dedicated ear training exercises but everything you do on guitar will be training your ear. you'll also need technique to be able to play some stuff that is in your head. that's where i'm at right now, there are a lot of percussive ideas in my head that i can't quite execute yet

what's fastest way to learn jazz on guitar? i'm reading pat martino linear expressions where he says you can play Dorian over anything, and it really is helpful for improv, but i still don't sound jazzy, i guess i don't have enough jazz vocab because i never transcribed songs

>>127030986
I got the blues and acoustic versions of these '100 lessons' and am getting an absolutely fuck ton out of them, once I finish them is my next purchase and it comes highly recommended

this guy gets a good rep: https://vanhemertsystem.fws.store/

>>127030950
well what music do you make and which genres do you listen to? for me that's the main thing, also sometimes when you make a song you hear phantom sounds which remind you of some instruments so you add those

>good ideas for music
>don't know anyone to actually realize it
>can't afford to pay session players right now

You've only made it in life when you have yourself your own Paul Reed Smith™

>>127031052
Well, I haven't made any yet but what I *can* make and what I want to make is different. It's just me and I just started learning guitar earlier this year but I'm learning how music is made alongside me learning guitar. In 2 years I want to actually put something out.
Writing down phrases, lyric ideas, instruments I like, etc right now.

Perfect sobriety doesn't exist. You are always slightly or heavily doped up with fatigue, dehydration, undernourishment, overnourishment, mania, depression, sleep deprivation, hypoxia, intoxicants, personal routines, overstimulation, etc. etc. You get the point.

>>127031055
>>127031085
maybe you should start making music first, full length tracks and then think about that. nobody is interested in "ideas guy". one year is not enough to learn an instruments

>>127031181
Nah I know, just learning how it's made alongside my instrument.
When would you say you're competent enough to make your own music?

>>127030133 (OP)
>When the black bass players sister won't stop flirting with you

So tiresome

>>127031181
I think he's doing it the right way, even if you just started learning if you picked up an instrument with the intent to make music that should be in the forefront of your mind from the start.
You don't need to be EVH to make a good song, you just need to be good enough to be able to express yourself in a way that resonates with other people.

>>127031211
download pirated ableton 12 from rutracker right now and start making your tracks. try not to get stuck in loops, make structure, ableton is great for that with its session view, then you can lay down the track in arrangement view. depending on your music tastes you can also download EZdrummer, Kontakt and different libraries. Also, don't get stuck in your room, get your friends into music or meet other musicians to jam with

>>127031300
that's true, some of the best ideas come when you're a novice, you just have to realize them

>>127030845

thanks, i'll check it out. do you know if The New Real Book by sher is worth getting over the classic The Real Book?

>>127031330
Will do. I've been meaning to pirate FL or ableton or one of the other DAWs anyway.
Also, have a friend that's been playing piano since he was a kid I've told him I'm learning guitar. I hope to get him on board with making music because I love piano but he's in the military right now, I also want to learn the instrument more before then.

>>127031388
>do you know if The New Real Book by sher is worth getting over the classic The Real Book?
i wouldn't buy it

>>127030950
>How do artists decide what other instruments go into a song?

they just do whatever they want to do, dumbass.

>>127031109
With rapidly diminishing returns. I took this road, and it almost killed me and I have false teeth before the age of 50. I did write some great songs and they got better the deeper I got but eventually you’re so consumed with staying well that you don’t have time for writing songs. It also took a long time to get my creative mojo back once I sobered up. The juice isn’t worth the squeeze, if you’re lucky you can dabble in drugs occasionally but that’s pretty rare the older you get.

>>127031300
>you just need to be good enough to be able to express yourself in a way that resonates with other people.

no the fuck you do not

>>127031441
>50
Unc status

>>127031450
Yes you do.
The average listener isn't critiquing the technique of the singer or how he plays an instrument, they just listen to the lyrics and know how the music makes them feel.

why would anyone make music with a guy who just has ideas? like if you had written music in some form then yeah but an idea guy??

>>127031450
A whole world of performances and recording has proven you wrong.

>>127031478
Not what I was saying at all.
I was saying I HAVE ideas but cannot realize them right now.

>>127031454
I’m in my thirties, just saying if you lose your teef before 50 you took a wrong turn.

>>127031396
ableton is the best imo, i started with FL 7 years ago because i was in the same situation like you. after a year i switched to ableton and actually started to progress somewhere, it's much more user friendly towards actual musicians. also be sure to get an audio interface, you can get this pack for cheap 2nd hand, everything you need rn.

>>127031479
>>127031469

you don't even need to be that good because what people connect to is beyond your own reckoning and the desire to connect with them is a falseness that never makes it more likely anyone will like you anyways.

you really don't need to be or do anything at all

>>127031506
>>127031509
you are schizophrenic

>>127031498
This is such a retarded outlook.
Unironically getting opinions on music from musicians that've played their entire life is your own reckoning.
They'll tell you this song sucks because they would've done this instead and normal people will just see you as bitter and pretentious.
No one cares about how fast you can play or how many barre chords are in a song if they don't like the music.

>>127031522

>>127031613
if your power solution for your effects doesn't look something like this you might as well start sucking dick on the street because all you're going to sound like is a noisy mess. don't even bother.

>>127031505

>>127030719
u got any of them witch hats?

>>127031450
Ugh I want a sunburst tele with binding so bad. Shop had a used one but the pickups just made toilet sounds

>>127031496
>more user friendly towards actual musicians
What do you mean by this? Like people who don't just make beats using a DAW?

>>127031505
>fret buzz
Fret buzz means string is touching higher frets when it vibrates, they are too close, it's not a filing issue, but a setup issue. Set relief first, then adjust bridge, if bridge adjustment is impossible or extreme, shim neck to point closer or farther from the body.

>>127031810
A good power supply is great, but a lone pedal with a battery doesn't mean shit. It's isolated. Good power supplies only improve on the noise of other power supplies.

>>127031868
i'm guessing he means there's two types of people typically using recording software: producers that either mess with existing tracks or build synthesizers one by one. personally as a musician i just want to be able to plug in, set my sound level and start recording. it's not that simple in most audio software. ableton lite was pretty easy for me except the monitoring; i just started a new track and adjusted the gain or whatever it's called. haven't used it in a few years

>>127031505
Filed the fret ends down with some small needle files. Also took it to a local guitar shop for a proper setup. They adjusted the neck, string height and intonation.

I have come to the conclusion 24 is not too late to start playing guitar

https://vocaroo.com/1guQxz8EsP98

>>127032012
it's a filing issue depending on how low you want your action. unless the instrument has specifically had the frets leveled, there will be variations in height

>>127031613
It depends on the state of charge of the battery. If it's got juice, no problems. When it runs out, things will stop working. If pedal has a physical bypass, you can take it out then, but if it's buffering, it will kill the signal for good.

>>127032047

>>127032020
a beefy power supply with actual isolated outputs, fed isolated and conditioned power, with everything on one circuit, is all you can really do to minimize your noise floor as far as power goes. most pedal supplies are not isolated and most that are isolated are gonna have fans in them.

>>127031868
yeah. unlike most DAWs, ableton is very modular. it can be whatever you make of it. it's perfect for jamming and trying different stuff. closest thing is Bitwig which i also love, but ableton is much older so there's tons of tutorials for it and m4l devices which you could find useful for performing
>>127032034
>ableton lite was pretty easy for me except the monitoring
what exactly?

>>127031508
Frusciante? Ngl, idolizing guys like him and Cobain at too young an age kinda pointed me in that direction. Not faulting them, just saying I was a dumbass who emulated my idols down a dark path. Not worth it, but I did get some good music as well as bunch of crazy ass stories out of it.

>>127032045
who told you otherwise lol

why do pmost people make the acoustic guitar sound like a cheesy cowboy show or sappy romantic vampire novel

it's like people are afraid to make the instrument sound more scary and with more mystique

>>127032108
Does it have any built in synths?

>>127032159
>cheesy cowboy show or sappy romantic vampire novel

>>127032188
you should stop thinking like that. i also sometimes do because i started at 19, but most musicians after 20th century were pushed by record companies because that's what sells to young people. of course brain plasticity is a thing and you'll have to work harder than a 5 year old prodigy. although it sounds like coping, for me that was always kind of a wind in the back, striving to always be better

Guitar player here. If you have the talent and the drive to improve, you’ll make it happen. The most important thing at the first stage is to learn how to play rhythm. You do this by learning your favorite songs and playing along with them until you feel the groove. Many amateurs make the mistake of starting doing solos without getting the sense of rhythmic playing first, that’s why they sound like dogshit and can’t go nowhere from there. It’s never too late to start playing guitar, I started learning to play bass when I was 34. That’s me after two years of playing:

https://vocaroo.com/12xvYDx3wwTq

>>127032310
ableton's latency is kind of fucked if you're not using mac. but 2i2 should be good enough, my friend uses it and she's fine. did you try ASIO4ALL? i used that when i had a shitty pc and it worked fine, you just have to adjust bit rate both in it's own control panel and ableton

>>127030184
just drill, play guitar 10 hours a day if possible and you'll get there in no time

I was at the farmers market earlier. Saw this barrel chested hunk in a muscle shirt that said "watch this", girls, I'm talking grade A BEEF-CAKE. You could tell everyone admired him and he had this brute charisma. He had an aura. He was as beautiful as he was powerful. He was playing a Cordoba ukulele at a bench after he got his produce. He played like an angelic being.

My respect to a drummer who can keep up with that, hold it down and fill. Drumless rock just ain't rock n roll.

>>127033102
I'd say learn the scale all over the neck. Eliminate the connection to boxes. Know the scale on the whole neck. Learn how chords are constructed. The 1st 3rd and 5th. Remember when it comes to theory alot of people are trying to say the same thing in different ways. Noticing keys that share some of the same chords, noticing how the same chord operates differently in different keys. Just like how changing the scale you are playing over a static chord operates differently. Being able to arpeggiate a chord anywhere on the neck. It's very satisfying being able to play any idea at any time or place on the guitar.

First poster was right. Learn your intervals. Also learn triads for each chord -- the root, third and fifth. These notes define the chord, the rest of the notes are essentially window dressing. If you know the triads for each chord and you know their positions on the neck, you can play with chord shapes at will.
have fun dude.

The opening of the track starts with a quivering reverbed synth. As the ukulele starts a gentle clicking rhythm. And the bass wanders meandering forming a sonic landscape. As I was wondering if the drums were in this one, suddenly the kick drum bursts like a dark cloud. And the voice came in like a beam piercing through the fog on a desolate winter night. And in its unfolding it taught us something we couldn't have known before. And something we can't speak in words. For we are but listeners. Of speakers, and of the hearts of men.

it will lag if your pc is old, otherwise it's pretty good

really?

>>127033214
Did you fall for it too?
Yeah never join any chan discord that wasn't posted on infchan before 2016.

>>127033503
I'm a Texan too actually. I'm the Bill Miller anon above.
But I got another guitar with 65' vintage pups. I don't think I want anything else now. I feel like getting another set for this other guitar.

>>127033102
>He didn't check the OP

>>127033516
yeah i fell for it
now i know how it feels like to be groomed

>>127033413
That walnut Mustang got a refinish at some point it looks like, the MG65 looks older are more worn

>>127031355
Yes. They're pretty pricey and I'm having trouble pulling the trigger on one myself, but they're top of the line. Want a lightly reliced burgundy red for picrel.

Tell ya what, I'll sell my Tex Mex pups here if I swap them. How do we do this (not discord).

>>127033160
not too shabby galloping there

>>127033228
other than that they like to submit people to litmus tests and conduct purges?

>>127033592
This is why my dad's generation threw faggot's off of bridges. Everyone thought it was so bad, but it kept the world in order.

>>127033555
Fuck it. Just put in an order for picrel on the Oly white.

I'm disillusioned about satin finish because after playing it for awhile the neck feels different. Also it's easier to get dirty or oily.

>>127033610
It looks nice, but what's special about them?

>>127033610
>>127033555
beautiful
>$300
Holy shit.

>>127033643
they sound twangier than telecaster. they're shit

>>127033640
Everything about Satin kind of relics in reverse. It gets glossier after worn a bit.

Reminder that if you cannot play acoustic, you're a fraud

>black or white guitars
Boring.

>>127033651
I mean the pickguard.
I guess a Jag can be rectified. I wouldn't modify a JM though.

>>127033643
They're just vintage spec and the colors are a lot more vibrant than modern pickguards. Basically just aesthetics.

>>127033555

Uh.... Tortoiseshell styled plastic right?

JANNIES HELP!!!!

Look

I'm beating the frets of my PRC into submission with the handle of a hefty screwdriver. just the 13th fret to go

can't get ADHD zoomers to watch your shit without these retarded captions

As an openly gay man, how do I reconcile the masculinity of hard rock guitar?

>>127033920
Rock has had a history of more gay frontmen. Or guys with gay antics. Bowie + Ronno. Jagger +Keih. Plant +Page. Freddie Mercury + Brian May obviously. Glenn Tipton + Rob Halford.

>>127033920
idk ask Rob Halford

>>127033920
just play metal

>>127033541
Nah it’s original, no other finish in the neck pocket or routes on the body. If it is a refin they did a good job nitro. The MG65 was beat up when I got it, it’s all chipped and dented

>>127034064
If you post a voca in the next 5 minutes I WILL reply.

Must be an ADHD thing or something. Or that skibidi shit I keep hearing about.
Only the boomer (especially the psychedelic boomer) knows the magic of the moment and break through all dimensions with one well placed bend.

>>127033807
>just the 13th fret to go
Made it buzz on the 14th fret on that side. beating that made it buzz on the 15th. I guess I've got more beating to do

the beatings will continue until clarity and sustain improve

>>127034064
serenade them live in the discord

>>127034174
>Only the boomer (especially the psychedelic boomer) knows the magic of the moment and break through all dimensions with one well placed bend
It's true, it's why Pink Floyd songs feel like you're getting sent to another dimension

the better i get the more directionless my practice becomes

Well now I've got a low fret. Who knew vaunted PRC fret steel would fade so in the face of my screwdriver handle's almighty acrylic? Time for some CA glue!
This is the best $250 I've ever spent

prove it.

Bad muting and timing.

Ditto and this tone is ass bro

this isn't guitar, take your fat ass to /prod/

>>127032441
Not guitar either, can you guys stay on subject?

Well this is the best voca posted ITT, this doesn't mean much, this just means yours is the turd floating on top. You're close to breaking out of the toilet though.

>>127034508
please stop

>>127034540
Try playing that on your gibson furniture loser

j...j..just one more bend on my shit fendercaster... one more chord bro please n.........ACK

>>127034508
The most insane thing to me is that while their music sounds good I feel absolutely nothing listening to it

reminder you must be 18 to post on 4chan

reminder that you must be a boomer bender to post on 4chinz

>>127034545
Notes blend together easier on humbucker guitars, it doesn't make any difference. Their tone is eq and compression maxed. You can get away with murder. And that's hard to pass up watching people mosh to club music.

I appreciate the kind words but I'm not here for a pissing contest, I just want to share my music and listen to yours. I'm old enough to be your grandfather. You guys are way too hard on each other.

*unison bends in your way

grandpa just mogged the entire thread gg

>>127034572
No SOVL. It's simple.
And you can't aquire SOVL by shitting on your forbears. Every gen knew this. Every Karate dojo knew this. Zoomers think the answer to their problems is a clean slate and shitting on everyone before they even get started. And now they're old, never amount to jack shit.

https://voca.ro/12oiW4URv0WQ

it's not all zoomers. just the one toomer ITT

>>127034786
Zoomers are basically the villain in the story.

Like when Tommy Gun turned on Rocky in Rocky 5. Rocky was gonna guide him and give his mantle, but he just shat on him as a boomer. So Rocky took him to school.

>>127034751
True.
They're all very good musicians but their music is bland and boring, no vision behind it.
It's just mental masturbation for the players, sounds great to them but as a group it's nothing special.

luv me glue tones simple as

>>127034882
tone glue.

>>127034961
dont forget to glue the strings in at the nut helps tuning stability

>>127034865
i bet this pile of scrap wood is $5000 at least

>>127034778
sounds like a kazoo
and do you really think the boomer cant boomer bend? are you high?

Tone Glue only matters on acoustics.
Just like Tone Wood. lol
Hide specifically, since the sound vibrations apparently move through it easier than modern glues. But guitars that use hide glue tend to cost an arm and leg, because they're constructing with all kinds of old school techniques.

They're all nihilistic little shits who need to be raped.

Can a 12 string acoustic be used for anything more than just strumming?

Not raped by me btw..

I remember trying to learn it early. I don't remember much now, but it's just Jimi's blues riffing. You could do it. It just sounds harder on a 12 string.
And of course, probably the most famous rock intro of all is a 12 String: Stairway to Heaven

>>127035358
>And of course, probably the most famous rock intro of all is a 12 String: Stairway to Heaven
lol that was actually on a 12 string? Doesn't even sound like it in the song

>>127035413
It is kind of subtle, I guess.
Over the Hills is another.

Bowie was the strummer. It's not all bad.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYYRH4apXDo

if you're reading this message, it's God's way of telling you that you need a 12 string acoustic guitar

>>127035447
The 12 string in Bowies earlier albums really added a lot of texture to the songs, barely recognizable but you know something is missing if you don't hear it.

12 strings? james jamerson only used one finger.

The goat strummer song.

Tone string wounds

I want to try out playing a 12-string but feel like everyone at a guitar store would be looking at me and I've only been playing a few months

polyphia is gen alpha tier trash

a good instrument makes you a better player

>>127035066
Two grand lol, at least for a LP copy I just saw on google. All made from “reclaimed” wood from blighted buildings in Detroit, AKA trap house scrap.

>>127035650
Then going back to a shitty instrument and getting good on it then going back to the good instrument makes you feel like a guitar god

>>127032850
>les paul looks better and has more pedigree.
The Les Paul originally was only produced between 1958 and 1960 and was only bought by jazz guitarists as rock music was very simple back then. It wasnt till rock guitarists in the 60s started buying them second hand and liking them that Gibson finally put them back into production in 1968

I just can't see Tim Henson since hearing him talk, he does not only look but actually SOUNDS exactly like Daisy Taylor so now I just keep blending the two together and seeing a tranny porn star up on stage doing oogily doogily sound effects on guitar just cracks me up.

>>127032188
I was in a band in my late teens and early 20s, always regretted to never have taken lessons and just barely know what I'm doing.
I'm 36 now and I took a course this year and I can't believe how good I became in a few months' time.

it literally is never too late
