what did he mean by this?

>>127270991 (OP)
obvious pedo edition

I was trying out my new guitar, picrel with a buddy of mine and recorded her first notes. there's nothing quite like a virgin guitar, singing crystal clear while she still has all the tone, before it starts leaking out over time yknow. anyway let me know what you think. my buddy was on point with the rhythm part in the background too.

i went to a music shop and bought the cheapest acoustic guitar they had. it sounds really bad even though it's in tune. is this just what cheap old guitars sound like or am i doing something wrong?

>>127271176
Did you give it some fresh strings after your purchase?

Last year I make $225k playing a old Roland Cube.

>>127271200

What’s the deal with Kiesel guitars?
You don’t just buy one you design it.
“Do you want gold frets? Multiscale neck? Roasted maple top with glow-in-the-dark inlays?”
I just wanted to play some chords, now I’m choosing wood like I’m building a yacht!
And every Kiesel player says the same thing
“It’s custom to me.”
Yeah? Then why do all of them look like a space alien and a lava lamp had a baby?
It’s not a guitar anymore it’s a personality test with strings.

For me its a maple fretboard Carvin Bolt

>>127271220

>>127271200

i fall asleep to mcknight's reviews

>>127271208
like buzz-y and just not in tune even though it is
>>127271213
they didnt. but i also specifically asked for the cheapest used guitar they had so i didnt expect new strings

So I order this Kiesel guitar, right? Custom built, made just for me.
Flame top, birdseye neck, gold hardware the works!
I'm thinking, "This is it! This is the one that unlocks my true potential!"
It shows up, I plug it in... and I still suck!
I thought it would change me /gg/
I thought I’d become Steve Vai overnight
Instead I’m just anon with a very expensive reminder that I have no finger strength!
And now I’m afraid to play it!
It’s too pretty! It just sits there, judging me…
like it knows I peaked at Smoke on the Water.

>>127271224
>>127271237
they were so good in the 80s

>>127271258
>buzz-y
Uneven frets or neck relief ain't right
>not in tune even though it is
Probably intonation problems which unfortunately there's nothing you can do about since it's an acoustic

>>127271151
Feels great.

As a new player, what does 'learning the fretboard' mean?

>>127271359
means memorizing this. looks impossible when you're new but it's really not that hard

>>127271390
You only have to go halfway, then it repeats itself.

i've been playing for 10 years and still don't know the names of the strings

>>127271417
how u restrin

>>127271390
How do I do this though? And what exactly does memorizing this mean for playing guitar and making music?

>>127271161
*Jazzmaster

Be honest with me- I want a strat, I’ve been playing guitar on and off for years, but I don’t wanna spend a whole lot of money.
I’m currently trying to sell the Ibanez RG570. Great guitar, but I hate the term, plus it’s got fret buzz on the first string or 2 that I can’t seem to get rid of.
Anyway, I have this old late 2000’s Fender starcaster strat I got YEARS ago as my first electric guitar.
The fit and finish is not great, but I’m not sure if it would be worth making a project out of or if I should just buy like a squire or MIM fender.
What do you guys say that know a lot more about guitars than me?

>>127271436
you play the notes 10000 times until its second nature
>what exactly does memorizing this mean for playing guitar and making music?
fuck if i know. some of the most revered guitarists ever knew nothing about music theory. i was just answering your question about what learning the fretboard means

>>127271465
Well thanks.
I'm just trying to streamline my learningof the instrument.

>>127271460
tune it up to pitch and set it up and see if the neck is even worth a shit before you put money into it

gibson, it's the only way.

ye haw

total eclipse of the fart

>>127271526
The starcaster strat?

>>127271634
yeah. if the neck is in good shape and feels good to play you could upgrade it. otherwise i wouldnt bother. fender bodies are practically worth nothing on their own. if it sucks just get a newer guitar with better construction

nah bro you don't get it Fenders being harder to play and having a shittier sound makes them superior

>>127271580
you forgot something

nah bro you don't get it Gibson breaking their necks if you look at them wrong and being harder to work on makes them superior

>>127271719
>harder to play
how? by having comfortable necks?

>>127271460
fix it up a bit, scam some boomer on reverb then buy yourself something nice

>>127271742
I heard that their new guitars have modern necks, took them like 80 years to upgrade their trash.

You guys know its almost that time right?

hee hee

does /gg/ approve of tim henson?

new color dropped lads. need it or keep it?

>>127271436
There's a couple of ways. One is going one note at a time on every string (so where all the A's are, and then so on and repeat.
Another is to learn the basic scales, like minor and learn roles the different notes of the scales are around the neck, and go that way.
>And what exactly does memorizing this mean for playing guitar and making music?
If you're wanting to do nothing other than cowboy chords, or you're already don't have any problem improvising; Nothing. Otherwise it can help with coming up with. I never practiced soloing for a very long time, but practicing the same thing that helps you solo, also helps you when just writing.

Been meaning to buy my first expensive guitar but all I see is electric/acoustic talk around here.

Spent an hour today trying to hold a pick "normally" with just two fingers with the index curved in slightly and found I can pick single notes a lot more quicker and effortlessly but at the cost of strumming chords and power chords like a complete newbie, would you bother trying to unlearn 15 years of using a grip like pic related and basically start over? Or would you try and learn how to switch quickly between the two for different playing styles?

What’s the deal with punchlines?
You sit through the whole joke, waiting for that one magic word
and then it lands, and you’re like… that’s it?
It’s not a punch, it’s a gentle nudge.
Some punchlines don’t even make sense
“Why did the chicken cross the road?”
“To get to the other side.”
That’s not a joke, that’s a location update.
And comedians always pause before the punchline...
like they’re letting it marinate.
“I got on the elevator with a horse…”
(Pause...)
“And the horse said...‘wrong floor.’”
What?! What does that even mean??

Fine can have a few different meanings.

Satan appears and makes you choose between an ES335 and ES330. Which do you choose?

I don't know how to say this. I work in the coal industry. I inspect mines and check safety protocols. Stuff like that. Last Friday I was checking oxygen levels in a mine in Oregon. I was alone. I entered the shaft elevator And took the long ride down. It got colder as I went deeper. I opened the yellow metal cage and stepped into the large cavern. I walked into one of the tunnels and heard something out of place. Sounded like a music box from a horror movie. Never been more creeped out. It stopped though. Like whatever it was heard me. And didn't want me to hear it. I crept along. A dark figure appeared at the end of the tunnel. I pointed my light. A large man, in a traditional pancho, light blue dress pants, and purple Nike Air Force ones, eyes closed. He was sitting in the padmasana position. A small case beside him. Before I could react, he spoke something in an unknown tongue. I told him I worked in the mine and he shouldn't be in here. So it seems, so it seem, he replied. His voice raspy and dreamlike. Sir what are you doing here. The same thing I would be doing anywhere, brother. He was massive. Arms like bands of iron. He clapped and it reverberated through the tunnel. "Understand?". He said to me. I nodded because I did. I realized. I want you to listen to what is about to happen. And I want you to tell the multitude of it. I felt an overwhelming sensation. Like a heavy blanket. And buzzing and tingling in my body. He gingerly opened the small case and took out a Cordoba ukulele. He played a cover of Ball and Chain by Janis Joplin that morphed into Ocean Eyes by Billie eilish. His voice blending with itself in the reverb of the mine shaft. I still wasn't sure if I was hallucinating, but as the last notes plinked, I could see he had tears in his eyes. And he said I was the recording. And I told him I don't have the strength to carry that. He told me you gotta live it. I never felt more safe. It's like he was there to protect me from myself.

telecasters look like garbo

>>127278035
teles are supremely uncomfortable tho. probably worse than an lp

>>127278053
Teles were Ted Greene's favourite guitars
Also Robben Ford comes to mind

>>127278074
>boomers like ugly shit
wow

>>127278074
i like 70s-90s country so i understand their importance in music, i just think they are not ergonomic

>>127278035
Jazzbox players can easily handle a Tele. Tele players couldn't handle a solid-top jazzbox.

>>127278133
Checked, Strats and Jazzys feels so much better. The least Teles could do is have a belly cut.

>>127277798
Kurt preferred Jazz/Mustang body though. Probably just to look different from the typical guitarists who rocked a strat or les paul at the time.

Got a guitar a few years ago. Generic brand. Used but not destroyed. Tried to make music kind of what the dead Kennedys did. You know, Funland at the beach, chemical warfare, etc. I couldn't fix the guitar intonation. Sounds detuned. The neck is leaning forwards and I can't get it right. Time passed and after careless use it turned to shit. The whammy bar broke (stratocaster clone), it's missing a few screws, irreparable (the wood where the screws fit is crumbling). Also has a few hit marks on the body. The whole audio jack hangs out side. Do you thing a Luthier will feel bad or mad for showing this guitar? It's embarrassing, I used silicona to get the audio jack holder in place. Like a lot of silicona. Btw I think the reason I didn't make any progress is because my hands are smaller than average and the fact that I jerk off with the left hand lol. I rarely play anymore, just playing ramones songs. It's all I know to play and Let me say I'm not a fast player.

i was with you til the silicone. yeah a luthier is not going to want to touch that

>>127278286
Kramer guitars (Assault for LP body/Striker for Strat body) are better these days than your no name brands and definitely worth it to get it if you need a whammy bar. Its really easy to speed up your playing, just do the spider-crawl drill as a warm up where you go 1-2-3-4 from the bottom, move it up a string and so forth in a spiralling fashion and then run it back again, you can also do this with power chords. Helps your fingers fly across the fretboard after a bit of training. Those guitars are also relatively cheap under $500 so I say definitely check them out instead.

>>127278286
>irreparable (the wood where the screws fit is crumbling)
buy wood glue
fill the screw holes with glue and matches or toothpicks
when the glue has dried (about 24h later) drill new small diameter pilot holes for the screws

>>127278283
He played Jaguars and Mustangs because they were dirt cheap at the time because nobody wanted them. He could actually find affordable left handed Fenders with Jaguars and Mustangs. He didn’t get himself a left handed Strat until after the Nevermind bucks started rolling in, before that it was whatever cheap shit he could find which ended up being left handed Jaguars and Mustangs and stuff like upside down Univox and Mosrite guitars.

>>127278283
>Kurt preferred
Wrong. He used whatever what put in his hands.

What is the ideal speaker for bass guitar that won't rattle the walls and foundation in renter's hell? I want to play without phones, but can't disturb the neighbors. So I guess something with more midrange than bass.

>>127276297
He stinks and I don’t like em’

>>127278420
> They were cheap at the time.
Yeah that tracks. They basically cost around a Mexican guitar these days, not super cheap but definitely not expensive, even the one he commissioned for the giveaway was like 1k tops.

Anti Mustang posters suck cock by choice.

>>127278448
Just get a pedal board set up that links up to your computer and you can use the computer's speakers to play your bass through them?

>>127278420
This, even the MIJ imports were much lesson than a vintage Strat would've been at the time.

I'm raw, I'm unfiltered, what you see is what you get, I type my uncensored streams of thought into my comments, I'm just as hard on myself. Granted, not everything is just being mean, people don't like criticism at all and for some reason just want mindless praise even though they also know they don't deserve it.
If you want someone to be proud of your small accomplishments show your family.

Say it ain't so.

philip mcknight says to leave your bathroom door open while you shower to help moisturize your guitar, but would that just cause the metal components to rust?

Never seen a prettier amp. Reminds me of cheesecake. I'm hungry now.

how tf do I use an eq pedal and a compressor. how do I know what does or doesn’t sound good and what to change to make sound good. I am too retarded to know what I need.

The headstock is much nicer but I don't like the pointy ends on the body. They look painful.

>>127279033
You should put together a band that's when the magic happens when people collaborate.

>>127278896
what compressor?
you should learn what a compressor does.

I can draw you a diagram if you want

>>127278896
graphic EQ is dead simple, you slide them to adjust frequencies until you get the EQ you want.
parametric EQ? who fuckin knows how that works.

>>127278771
not really they're either brass stainless nickel plated or chrome. all are corrosion resistant but he really only meant this for acoustics and it's a good idea for him because he lives in arizona. the soundboard of an acoustic grows and shrinks width wise so when it gets dry it is trying to get narrower but it's glued to the sides so the top splits in half

I just splurged hardcore. Ordered this from Japan, probably overpaid but now I’ll have a Strat, Mustang, Jazzmaster and Jaguar in Fiesta Red. Only the JM doesn’t have a matching headstock. I’ve always been more utilitarian about guitar choices but this past year I’ve really gone a bit ape with the collecting and it’s been reinforced because having such a wide selection makes me play so much more than I would otherwise.

>>127272300
Holding the pick properly is one of the easiest things you can do to near immediately improve your ability to play technical stuff. If you’re not playing high level material it doesn’t matter so much but past a certain point of difficult you will need to do hold the pick properly. With improper grip you won’t be able to pick as fast or fluidly and changing pick slant with be very hard. I don’t really find strumming harder with the right grip but if you really need to I guess you can switch between the two, I’d try to learn with the right grip first though.

>>127278896
a compressor reduces the dynamic range of your signal.
the threshold knob says "anything above this line gonna get pushed down"

the ratio is all "im gonna push you down this hard, get under the threshold, kid"

the level or output will say "aww, cute little quiet notes, put on these platform shoes so you seem taller"

some compressors will have a speed knob too, fast speed means the level is basically capped at a certain point and slow speed will mean it takes a second to kick in on loud notes so you can still have clear picking but held notes will be tamed

pro tip: if you strum the strings, a sound comes out

>>127279331
ironically the best description of a compressor i've seen

>>127279336
i tried but the sound is more crunchy than the guitarists i listen to

>>127279251
now you will be able to tell everyone once and for all which is leo’s best. ngl not a fan of matching headstocks in fiesta red, they would look better with a regular maple headstock.

>>127279251
Wow that looks great. Keep us posted fiesta anon.

>>127279331
Compressors are only useful for single coil guitars to say fuck you to the feedback loop.

Fender

Telecaster

Mustang

>>127279331
as a follow up, people use them for different reasons. if you set your threshold and ratio roughly in the middle and quick speed and adjust the output so the loudest strums are around the same level as when the pedal is off, you're basically just turning up the quieter notes only, giving more sustain but also boosting the noise from noisy pickups.

you can get natural compression from a soft pick as well. i saw an interview with nolly, he's talking about bass but it can apply for acoustic strumming too, if you use a really soft pick, then it acts as an analog compressor, stopping you from strumming too hard and making your notes more consistent when recording. he is super aspie about this sort of stuff though so your mileage may vary

>>127279390
compressors are great for ghost notes so they're also awesome on bass

>>127279390
t. anon that doesn't know how to be creative with his tools

Fender Telecaster Mustang.

>>127279441
>still has the limpdick neck pickup

>>127279437
> Using tools for things not meant to do so.
That being said, on a H+H guitar with good sustain you can make that guitar sound like a Telecaster or a Strat with an EQ lol. That's about it for "creative" use of equipment.

>>127279463
so, of all the gear out there, there is 1 pedal that you can do 1 thing with?

1/10, apply yourself

>>127279449
>trying to clown on a fender single coil neck pickup with 250k pots aka fender’s second best pickup only after the tele bridge pickup

wah pedals were designed and sold as an effect for trumpets..... what is this brainded take unc

>>127279449
Mustang pickups are Strat pickups just covered and (usually) underwound. So it's better than the Tele neck.
