Cheapest Gibson Les Paul You Can Find edition

finally, truly noiseless high gain cranked amp distortion. no fucking buzz or EMI. one circuit, isolated power supplies for each device.

>>127045120
For a moment I thought that lampshade was the ass end of some cool looking harpsichord

why does it look like it peed its pants

>>127045127

>>127045127
what happens if you turn up every single knob to the max?

>>127045120
Nice setup.

>>127045111 (OP)
I have one of those, also a pro studio from 2014 which is literally just a standard with no weight relief and bindings. The red one has a borken neck and the other one is a piece of garbage when it comes to playability. These guitars are not meant to be played, they are forniture.

>>127044617
reality: ape tabs for 30min, noodling ffor another 30, all while watching youtube reviews

>>127045228
I have an ebony classic with white binding and i will literally not play anything else.

How do you play this chord without using your thumb to mute the top two strings?

TFW you realize you have a 26 gallon air compressor and have been wasting money on computer duster to keep your instruments and gear dust free. This is my smoke free rack, the other one holds the guitars that have been seasoned and lightly cleaned once moving out of very smoky environments. I’ve gotten increasingly anal about dust and it’s kinda funny to have a handful of truly grisled and grody guitars that I just can’t part with.

I've never bonded with any Gibson or HB guitar. Even when I want to desperately. The creative juices only flow with shitty single coils and possibly lots of noise.

>>127045255
Uh, just pick those? Is this a trick question?

>>127045257
what's the best way to keep smoke gunk off your guitars?

Which fuzz is best fuzz?
Fuzz face? Tone bender? Muff? Op amp muff? Hyper fuzz? Some other octave fuzz? Rat? Binary counter fuzz?

>>127045255
if muting just don't play them
looks like they are fretting them with their thumb here

>>127045275
A lot of guitarists seem to just strum all of the strings with the ones they don't want muted. But I also thought using your thumb was bad for some reason

>>127045282
Fuzz face is kind of the standard fuzz to me. I know the Muff is called a fuzz, but it's kind of its own thing to me. Neither distortion or fuzz. Still cool.

>>127045298
Using your thumb isn't bad. It's just sort of electric guitar specific.

>>127045257
>smoke free rack
>dusting your guitars
Playing maid instead of guitar, anything but practice eh?
Wiping premium tone right off your guitar, sad.

>>127045298
on guitar the strings you don't mute will ring out anyway even if you don't touch them due to resonance, so muting is very necessary, and yes this happens on acoustic too

>>127045343
If I do mute, I don't consciously think about it enough to call it a mute. My technique is just that good.

>>127045343
this doesn't apply to electric guitar unless you are playing extremely loud.

>>127045249
chord it out sister you rock

>>127045358
if you're fucking deaf maybe

It's like when a kung fu master instively blocks your punch. That's me and mutes.

>>127045413
I typed instinctively, but it didn't come out that way. Need to work on my typing technique now.

So the PRC still has dead frets. I don't think a $150 Squier would give me this much trouble. Oh well. More glue! More beatings! I'll make a guitar out of it yet

>>127045402
buy a noise gate, the sympathetic ringing shouldn't be able to overcome the gate.

>>127045282
Analogman sunface with a 2SB.

>>127045255
prs, ibanez, ltd. that's how you play those chords

>>127045282
Muff, or any muff clone with wacky options and knobs.

>>127045257
Compressed air can fuck up your finish. It comes out super cold and you can shock the finish into crazing, like taking it outside in deep winter and then bringing it inside.

muff doesn't get disgusting enough, more of a distortion pedal than a fuzz.
Fuzz is supposed to square the wave.
https://voca.ro/1deWnZ7i5fg7

>>127045426
it gives you that much trouble BECAUSE it's a $150 squier

Any guitar can have dead frets. Go get them leveled

>>127045522
lol, those thick poly finishes won't crack with a blowtorch

poly > nitro
30 seconds and a damp rag and my guitar looks like the day it was built. Nitro rubs off with water lmfao

>>127045429

'noise' gates are fucking hacks. they're for getting harsher chugs and overcoming inclement conditions in venues as a last resort.

the sympathetic ringing of unmuted strings is quite literally the #1 problem with pretty much any guitarist that doesn't sound good and half of the ones that do. even if you did have a noise gate so what you wanker the sympathetic ringing makes the note you intended to play sound like shit. thats why it doesn't sound as good when you play it but someone else can take the same guitar and it sounds tight, rich, full.

muting should be like, the first fucking thing anyone learns. lesson 1 of 1000, play this scale while muting all the other strings.

>>127045572
>Nitro rubs off with water lmfao
That'd be cool if it was true.

>>127045575
sounds exactly the same samir.

I'm not even sure the Muff was originally a fuzz. The original was the same pedal Gilmour used for that Comfortably Numb solo...which most would think is just a nice overdrive. it got nastier over later designs.

>>127045562
It's about the time it takes to cool down or heat up. Compressed air will 'freeze' the finish in a very small place very quick.

>>127045572
i want my guitar to age with me just like everything else i own

>>127045279
Don’t smoke around it for one. It’s pretty hard honestly, I tried keeping them in a hard case in the basement which was the least smokey area and it still wound up coated in light tar. I guess you could try wiping them down monthly.

>>127045522
I hold the cans a good distance away, the mechanical compressor shouldn’t hurt it though as long as it’s not freezing in my garage. I have a really slick wand with a regulator knob to adjust the flow.

>>127045282
The Muff with tone wicker is my go to. It’s louder and has a wider tone range than the others I’ve had or tried

>>127045673
hard pressed to recommend spending money on a superfluous tool but i really like the electric air dusters. same air speed but you don't have to listen to the compressor kick on every 30 seconds

chat is this real?
how would it sound

what about an electric leaf blower? too much air?

>>127045724
Impossible to hold properly. Needs to be much smaller

>>127045760
put a smaller mouth on it

They fucked up by not making the Tolex green.

>>127045426
My fender style and lp kits are solid players. The semi hollow kit might be beyond reproach. The hollow probably needs a full refinish, bridge and nut adjustments, full fret leveling and filing, route access to the electronics from the back so they can be reworked without losing my mind. All and all it's shit considering that kit is more expensive and there are tons of sellers putting out $200-250 guitars right now. That was my first kit and my skills were more rugged, but everything about it is worse than it should be.

only a /gg/ibson is gud enuf

think i'm gonna build a warmoth and do the nitro myself. i don't want the shitty vintage bridge, tuners, and fretboard radius just to have nitro on a fender

>>127045809
>gud enuf
I believe it is for some people.
Just not me.

i really wanna hear the difference from a regular humbucker

>>127044674
That's a hell of an endorsement, I'll buy one.
Are the pups okay? Looks like they use wilkinsons, or at least they say so.

>>127045813
Find a good deal on a Fender O.G. like I did. They're out there.
Granted, they don't have a ton of colors.

>>127045111 (OP)
Isn't the cheapest les paul a les paul modern studio session? I saw one at GV for 670 bucks once, ableit it was stolen and dinged up at one point.
After that, it'd be the LP tribute

>>127045824
How does that even work? I thought you needed an even number of coils to buck hum.

>>127045833
vintage? or a used reissue? the vintage nitro p basses are ridiculous

>>127045813
>do the nitro myself
this nigga gonna get cancer in every organ

>>127045839
i think the session is slightly more expensive than the plain studio

how are we today saars?

>>127045865
if only i could be so lucky

>>127045856
The American Originals were a brief run of Fender ditching the American Vintage line with specific years and doing just "50s" and "60s" American models. Kind of like Gibson does. But they gave them a 9.5 radius. Everything else was kind of like the AV models. I have a 60s Strat. It's awesome.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHmzsoZuk1U

If nitro is as magical as its hyped to be, couldn’t you just refinish any guitar with nitro? Seems like a case of people chalking other materials and competent QA up to a finish method..

>broken korean dunnable sells for more than your finished guitars
i mean

slash smokes while playing guitar
you think you're better than slash
as if sister, reality check.

>>127045933
It's a shitty finish that doesn't hold up and literally give workers cancer from toxic chemicals, the only reason it's still relevant today is because boomers are retarded and want the old lead pipes they drank from when they were a teenager

>>127045933
yes but stripping finish is three times as much work as just doing a finish on new wood
>>127045915
that's true though i'd feel bad spending that much money and getting rid of the bridge and tuners

>>127045879
Waft farts lol

>>127045933
no

>>127045977
>doesn't hold up
that's the point of nitro tho. it's easy to patch finish also since it just melts into the existing finish

>>127045961
That’s a prop cig and has been since 2003

>>127046024
Yeah right. Those are vintage '59 Marlboros with original tobacco he gets custom from the plantation.

>>127045980
>that's true though i'd feel bad spending that much money and getting rid of the bridge and tuners
To each their own. I like the vintage tuners at least. Could take or leave a 6 point bridge.

>>127045961
he has personal servants cleaning up his guitars and gibson sends him replacements for free if they happened to get trashed, meanwhile the wageslaves here have to spend 18 months in their cage to afford one

I'd rather have no finish than a nitro finish.

the bass ones are reverse tuners. they kind of stink even though they're really good quality. i've never messed with the guitar tuners

>>127045671
poly ages as well, it tints with time.

>takes 1/100th the effort
>100x more likely to get you laid

>>127045562

>>127046139
he was laying on the lennon a little thick then wasn't he

>>127046144
Ah, you know I don't think I've ever used those. But the vintage/kluson guitar tuners are actually a good design that holds up.

25 wives in the lake tonight

I love Mustangs. I’ve never clicked with a guitar as firmly as I’ve clicked with a Mustang other than when I got my first Strat 20 years ago, but Mustangs do everything I’ve ever wanted my Strats to do while also being lighter. They’re not aa “sweet” sounding as a Strat and are definitely thinner setting, but that’s nothing tweaking amp settings or pedals can’t fix. I love them

>>127046365
I don't know, I've never sung since I was a kid

>>127046675
if you love em so much why don't you marry em?

>>127046675
I liked my Mustang and miss it sometimes.
What's with the wingnut on the red one's vibrato?

>>127046756
They’re both used and have already been fingered by too many dudes
>>127046758
Got tired of needing an Allen key to adjust the set screw so I put a wing nut in instead, I’ll do the same to the other one too next time I go to the hardware store. It’s nice being able to put it in or take it out without tools or be able able to loosen it on the fly and rotate it out of the way and re tighten it when you’re not wanting to use it at the moment

dudes on here be like "bros I love my guitars they're the best thing in my life I won't even let one speck of dust touch them" and the guitars haven't been played since 2024

>>127046822
Nah I don’t clean my guitars, maybe when I change strings I’ll wipe the fretboard down but other than that idgaf. They get played and by getting played they get visibly used, no reason worrying about the inevitable

>>127046822
It's the reddit hobbyist mentality, they get into the hobby forums, buy one or two """based"" options (according to the fandom), then pretend they're experts on the subject and shitpost on said forums while not engaging with the hobby in any real way

need it or sneed it?

>>127047068
It gets to a point here it becomes one thing. Try playing scales and doubling the notes with your voice. Singing while playing rhythm is hard at first. Try playing along to a recording while looking at the chord chart and singing along while playing the guitar.

>>127047068
it's like trying to coordinate another limb
you can practice by just playing quarter note chords, like tapping your foot but it just takes time and practice

>>127047021
congrats dude. i'm genuinely proud of you

>>127047068
drummers have to learn it with 4 limbs.
you learn to kinda put a limb on autopilot so the rest can do off-beat hits. It just takes time.
If you can practice your guitar parts enough that you don't have to think about them as much you can focus on the singing.

Think about acoustic cover fags, every song ends up being the same strumming pattern so they don't have to think about it and they can just change chords and sing

Are there any other guitar players who hated their own signature models and ditched them as soon as they got out from under contract with the manufacturers?

im gonna let you all in on a big secret

don't tell anyone though or i will find you

>>127047655
https://voca.ro/1kVmPK5Hvxzt

only a Ibanez is good enough

>>127047673
for what, i didn't like their necks, i have small hands, 3rd-9th fret max stretch feels bad, I prefer a modern "c" shape, what about you? Do you really prefer the Ibanez "Wizard" necks?

I don't make mistakes

Why do people say guitar is a dead instrument

>>127047673
I had a butterscotch Jetking. I didn't get along with the flat radius on the fretboard and didn't play it that much. I sold it but kinda miss it now and then.

>>127047638
I’m curious about this too. Les Paul was a real tinkerer and did all kinds of cool things with his guitars, I can’t blame him for being unhappy with a signature model when he’s constantly modding his stuff, he’d get ideas for new sounds and wind his own pickups to get it.
On the other hand I think it’s cool when guys use basic off the shelf production models of their signature guitars. Yngwie uses basic versions of his signature Strats and Troy Van Leeuwen uses basic production versions of his (Mexican made) Jazzmasters. I think it’s cool when someone gets a signature model and then uses it, not the special custom shop version of it or the original model it was based off of but used the common production model that the average joe would buy if they were wanting one.

>>127047667
like tim henson or ichi
cargo cult of personality

>>127047689
technically the only living instrument is singing, everything else is dead if you think about it.
every instrument besides your vocal chords is made from dead materials.

If you can't play on their necks you might as well give up

>>127047702
And i actually mean it, their necks are a literal cheatcode.

>>127047702
I just didn't like it, I wanted to like it, it sounded like something I would like, I really wanted the 24 frets and the look of the Ibanez S Series S670QM but I just couldn't like the neck. Just didn't vibe with me IDK what to tell ya

Like just check this out. Les was always inventing things and tinkering with things to be able to make the sounds he wanted and make the guitar do things he wanted it to do. Like not only could he play but he had the mind of an engineer to create new ways to play. He was such a cool guy.

best amp possible

>>127048970
True!

How do I make my playing to sound like I'm "squeezing" out the sound instead of striking it out of the guitar? jeff beck and a lot of good guitarists seem do it easily and I don't get how

if you are having trouble nailing a riff, stand on one leg

What does that do, make it harder?

>HSS pickguard with Floyd Rose bridge cut pickguards are actually sold, spares me the headache of cutting the bridge wider
>order pickguard
>aside from the general fuckign shape, not one hole lines up, bridge still has too much plastic on one side

Can fuckjg chinese do one thign right in their fuckign lifes? JUST GET A FUCKIGN PLATE OF THE ORIGINAL PICKGUARDS YOU DUMB FUCKS

>>127049239
seems to work well for flute at least

>>127049275
this guy is such a fag

>>127049137
squeezing is pretty subjective.
do you mean volume swells? turning up the volume with your pinky while plucking with a thumb?

>>127049290
It's not vol swell but kind of sounds like it, like they barely move their hands but every note comes out strong and clear and there's this pulsing quality to it like the guitar is singing, using more gain gets it a bit close but it's alsways been said that these artists barely use any gain

>new EQD analog ampsim models a 65 Deluxe, with USB and headphone outs

Come on guys its like you had to ruin it.

they are turned up fucking loud. good luck getting that effect without being cranked

WHOAH

>>127049273
Maybe it was made to fit something else

>>127049436
whoa.

>>127049476
No it was measured correctly at the factory

>bummed around looking for discount codes on reddit for DSP's
worth it

>>127049345
If it's Jeff Beck, try the following
1. Use your fingers not your pick
2. Use harmonics and rise to the target note with your vibrato bar
3. Play loud - might be the feedback from the amp that you're hearing as that blooming quality

>>127049366
Let me guess, you need more?

>>127049652
I just plug my guitar straight into my PC's audio input jack.

why did this boomer blow up?
he's a nobody in the real music bizness
then he starts interviewing a bunch of real artists
is he part of the tribe?

>>127049652
I at least need the treble/bass eq the actual amp had.

rhett? more like mr. steal ya bitch. licks so tasty she drip

>>127049717
EQ is a crutch.

>>127049713
sometimes the algorithm just randomly shills someone and if they know what to do they piggyback from there

do i get the blue or green ones for my pink shred machine

>>127049772
Yes, it's completely random and not what happens when you pay youtube to boost your channel, clueless boomer.

>>127049959
blue is easier to see under low light
green will get drowned by stage light
desu they need a white, orange/red and purple one

>>127049981
you are awesome bro, thanks

>>127049970
A fuckton of people pay youtube boost man, you think everyone that does gets rick beato tier success?

Changing strings and oiling the fretboard are both a meme. Your natural oils keep them both in top condition as long as you play regularly

>>127050125
blud doesn't wash his hands before playing

>>127050125
If you're fucking jabba the hut maybe

Is babby mad he can't get a dopamine rush from consooming and doing pointless maintenance instead of actually playing?

fryers warming up...

shame about the current trends in rock

>>127050269
rock is completely dead anyway bro

>>127050170
Everything requires maintenance.
Are you like those dumb kids who never change the oil or coolant in their cars?

I like em, even the Mike Bloomfield one.

It just dawned on me that that was what the Coronet was shooting for, shapewise.
I had one of these years ago. It sucked.

>look up obscure chink shit guitars
>chink or thai demonstrator, decently well shot videos, good playing
>look up demos for squier CVs or epiphones
>white guy playing blooz badly in his living room
why is this?

>>127050760
Thais adopted a lot of surfy guitar for that old Vietnam era pop they had. So they got pretty good. There was a lot of American influence there like Japan...but they didn't go wild with rock like Japan did.

They are the most slept on Fender. Fine by me, more for us. Now that I have P90 mustang on the way I think I’m going after the white whale next: thinline Mustang.. better start scraping my shekels together

>>127046822
Air compressor anon here, how many hours do you play each day? I work from home and play between 3-5 hours a day.

>>127050911
we get it rhett, you like mustangs

>>127050570
I’m betting they’re just a jobless coping poor with at best a single decrepit shitplank. Semen encrusted from gooning and shitposting all day, coated in slop grease and Cheeto dust

>>127051027
I’ve never heard of this guy until I came here, why are you so obsessed with him?

How come guitar parts made from stainless steel still rust after some time

>>127051258
its stainless not rustfree

>>127050760
Chinks are retarded bugs

>>127051258
You can remove it with oxalic acid cleaner, baking soda as well but I don’t think that works as well.

>>127051630
it'd just rust again since the chrome plating is already shot, you'd need acrylic spray or something to coat it

>>127050911
A Mustang with P90s would be cool but my Fano is basically already that. A P90 Mustang with the same switching as a regular Mustang with out of phase would be cool. I’d want to put together a humbucker Mustang if I didn’t already have my Super Sonic. I’m thinking about hardtailing my Japanese one so I can have one with a stable vibrato and one just simple

only a gibson is bad enough

12pm .No work today, drinking some beers, playing some Black Sabbath. Doused myself with Tony Iommi Xerjoff cologne. Life is good

Chinese centimeters are more efficient.
You get more per dollar.

>>127051828
Not that the price of fragrances matters too much, but the Iommi perfume is almost 3 times more expensive than the one you posted lulz. For me i'm not a big perfume head, I just bought it to support Tony Iommi and his cancer battle.

>>127051730
Why not make the hard tail MIJ your humbucker with hotrail/JB Jr? I’ve played a few HH Mustangs with various stock and aftermarket full sized humbuckers and it’s too muddy sounding. If you’re looking to play anything remotely clean the hotrail seems to be the perfect happy medium.

i just woke up

>>127045257
>TFW you realize you have a 26 gallon air compressor and have been wasting money on computer duster to keep your instruments and gear dust free.
Dont use compressed air to clean dust off guitars!!!

Amazon sells brushes specially for dust removal of guitars

no I will not fund jeff bezos

i'm not funding a shitty boomer bender

>>127048970
they could make it even better by getting rid of the normal channel (which no one ever uses anyway) and in its place adding a midrange control to the EQ and a switch to take the amp down to 5 watts or 1 watt

>>127045120
Real niggas play that Boogie

>>127051986
I’m not using it on the finish, just the pickguard to clear dust from the pickups. Probably a little OCD, but it makes me sleep better.

>>127051940
Maybe, the Japanese one has some great sounding pickups as is though and it’d be a shame to replace them

>>127052378
Yeah, I was expecting them to be anemic on my MG73 and was prepared to swap at least the bridge for a hotrail but I like the combined sound too much to replace it.

Would you laugh at me for playing a Squier? Be honest.

I should start recording my riffs. I'll write stuff out then forget the tempo overnight

>>127052452
Nope. I have a soft spot for cheap guitars and amps

>>127052502
how? notation has tempo built in

Think my PRC is finally buzz free enough for government work. Will see if it sticks

>>127052595
Arrogant AND deliberately obtuse? *swoons*

last for Gretsch

>>127052452
No, just set it up and upgrade it where needed. Manicure the frets, make sure the action and nut are good and you’ll have a decent, playable guitar. The Sonic series blows away the Affinity guitars I played as a kid back in the day.

>If nitro is as magical as its hyped to be
people use it because its thin and wears off easily, so it attracts all the posers who are into relic'ed guitars

it requires a lot of coats to put on properly so as to not wear off

>>127045111 (OP)
A Tribute would be nice. Something about its rustic looks, though idk if a maple neck works for a gibson.
