i hate telecasters.

keep it up anons, i can see the progress you've made and i just know you have it in you to improve even further.

>>127279592
>no issue with lime green sparkly finish
get your own damn signature model

>>127279592
its an "anon only knows 2 guitars exist" episode

Should've been a tele hybrid thread. Check this out.

>>127279607
whats the hybrid? its just a flashy deluxe tele...

>spent the last few hours playing Pixies songs on my Mustang
he’ll yeah

>>127279616
well you see it has a faggotomatic bridge

remember new shapes? i wish they still tried new shapes

1st 4 custom shop gibson and masterbuilt fenders

>>127279623
the headstock looks like an anal plug

>>127279603
didn't know it was her sig, that explains it
>>127279606
Mustangs and Strats right?

>>127279623
Had instrumental music stayed relevant and as popular as it did in the 80-90s they perhaps would have kept experimenting. Newest invention that's still old as fuck that's become popular is the headless guitar trend.

>>127279623
I like some of the goody Rivolta shapes

>>127279629
i mean, if that's where your mind goes i guess

>>127279637
I can't unsee it thanks to that anon lol.

for me its the JD sig

>>127279636
I like the first two but wtf is the one on the right

>>127279647
guess its a take on the moderne

>>127279647
Yeah that one is definitely the worst. I like the one on the left with the sharp angles, it looks so out there. I’d buy one if it wasn’t $1500 for a Chinese guitar.

The Gibson Theodore has grown on me.

Pretty interesting specs for a MIJ. Alder body, mustang bridge, jumbo frets. Excited to compare it to my Vintera Jag which is pretty nice but I have a feeling this will be noticeably nicer. The MIJ rosewood has been better quality in my experience so far, the Pau Ferro is my biggest issue with the Vintera.

What about splitcoil?

Which pikup combo is the best:
>tele bridge, humbucker neck
>bumhucker bridge, p90 neck

>>127279710

>>127279710
just get a regular telecaster you're not good enough to deserve options

>>127279687

Tele bridge and humbucker neck or humbucker bridge and p90 neck

>>127279710

Always.

>>127279710
> H + p90
Probably is the best tbfh for versatility.

>>127279682
headstock looks like a bad dragon dildo lol

pro tip: turn on your amp, and leave it running through out the night

>>127279709
I've heard splits that have a decent strat kinda sound, but never one like the Tele bridge. That pickup is likely the #1 reason the Tele has endured all these years.

>>127279734
then you get to meet an amp tech, always good to make new friends

>>127279734
Don't, you'll blow up a tube or something and get a huge electricity bill if there's no tubes.

one day I'll be good enough to record a voca

only a gibson is good enough

>>127279710
Noiseless P90 in the neck Humbucker in the bridge. Whoa, you just entered tone town and you didn't have to pay the hum tax.

>>127279738
True however Tele's unique sound comes from the clanky and twangy sound its pick ups make, perfect for certain types of music that utilize it. These can be emulated through an EQ pedal though to some extend.

>>127279804
I cant afford one so theyre bad

>>127279820
If you woke up with 600,000 in your pocket, you still wouldn't want a Gibson.

>>127279834
True, I would just buy a Solar Guitar instead.

>>127279707
FSR II 1960s Jag

>>127279834
I would buy a mexican telecaster and 599,500 dollars pickups

>>127279895
I don't think there's pick ups that cost that much or mexican tele that costs that little.

The most you'll spend is like $150k.

>>127279855
solar guitars are cheaper though

its interesting hownguitar prices havent changed much in like 20 years

>>127279970
Can't go wrong with it, would get a Friedman amp probably with it, that would be under $5k and perhaps toss in some pedal set for options.

>>127279997
They keep them artificially low by producing in cheaper countries rather than sticking to certain countries after their living standards go up, some guitar companies are greedy fucks.

>>127279997
cnc machining is cheaper than ever. they're also using shittier wood but trying to mark it as exotic and cutting corners on labor. look at a guitar that is made using 1950s methodology they're like $10k

>>127280033
Plus, the untapped rainforests in the newer, growing economies of Indonesia and PNG. Can't get Brazilian rosewood anymore because muh Amazon rainforest fires, but those tards couldn't gad about Indonesian forests since they don't know what/where it is.

What do we do when all the rosewood on earth has been used for necks already

>>127280088
True and at the end of the day a guitar is:
> Wood. (Cheap)
> Plastic. (Ditto)
> Some metals (likewise plenty cheap when its mostly just chrome steel etc.)
Its not as expensive as you may think to build a guitar from scratch hence you could assemble yourself a guitar for under $1k reasonably well from kits.

>>127280113

You're not American. Who gives a shit what you want.

>>127280155
> I'm chang, yes how could you tell.
Some chang guitars are fine (guitar fetish ones if you are an american), but why settle for Chinastick if you can afford Indonesian guitars?

>>127280160
get your greasy hamfingers off my guitar

>>127280033
MIMs have been coming out of the same factory for nearly half a century and still haven't changed much.

>>127280165
Mexican wages haven't gone up and neither has their death tolls to cartels keeping their wages low. Its just not a stable region that would see increases in economic quality of life upgrades.

>>127280155
id buy an eastman (i actually have one right now) but they dont have the low frequency response of a martin d18/d28 eastman has designed their guitars with the modern philosophies of companies like bourgeois (whom they recently acquired) and they're too bright sounding for my tastes. great guitars im just not looking for the sound they have. in many ways their guitars are as good or better than the american counterparts. their wood selection is great

Made In USA™
Sorry boss, I can't check the quality on that one, im on my union entitled break. Besides, my diabetes has ruined my eyesight so I'll just say it's good anyways and get my hard earned pay check sitting around pretending I'm doing work. Also we're going on strike next week to force you to increase our pay and benefits and give us longer breaks. Oh and I'm protected by the union so you can't fire me for doing a subpar job. See you in 15, boss.

>>127280033
They're cheaper now than they were originally. Even in the US, if you adjust for inflation.
The price of a Strat in 1960 was $275
That's over $2900 in 2025 money.
The price of a Fender Am Pro, which is roughly they're "Standard model" is $1700 or so.

>>127280203
Gibson neck breaks have always been a joke and why most people in Europe avoided buying one through shipping, not because Gibson was trash or they didn't have money, but nobody wanted that expensive guitar if it meant the neck would get smashed in shipping due to some Mexican mishandling the delicate packaging.

>>127280213
weird that other guitar manufacturers dont have problems with that.

>>127280203
This isn’t a MIA problem, it happens to Gibson copies from anywhere unless they alter the design.

>>127280225
Its because most other guitar manufacturers don't have solid neck and angle of a Gibson guitar, bolt on necks are an industry standard elsewhere for cheaper models. Its literally just the angle of the neck.

>>127279734
1. hear voices coming through the ambient hum at night
2. do what they tell you

I'm new to guitars, is there some sort of science behind why gibson necks can't help themselves from snapping?

>>127280271
Just the weakness of the angle its cut at.

>>127280203
it's not really the headstock angle or scarf joint as much as it is the truss rod channel removing 40% of the wood at the transition between the fretboard and headstock. look how little wood there is at the breaks

Got a TB-64, looks cool, sounds cool.

>>127280258
>>127280284
ibanez have angled headstocks and they dont have that problem

>127280173
Sorry didn't mean to trigger a polfag guys. I should've said MIJ which has been around even longer and hasn't changed much.

>>127280287
They also have bolt on necks.

>>127280287
11 degrees versus 17 degrees on the gibby. you're literally getting 50% more angle for your money on the american guitar

>>127280297
how does that affect the headstock?

>>127280289
> Muh /pol/fag am I doing it right chang sistsers?
Tranny lol.

>>127280287
Just the smallest degree can make a huge difference. Martin's and many acoustics have a slight tilt, but Gibson are usually a little bit more.

>>127280305
You don't understand physics though? It lessens tension on it already and shifts the center of gravity, the bolts are basically supporting the neck itself and the built structure. Anyway. You will see less bolt on necks getting fucked naturally than through-body necks.

>>127280327
that doesnt make sense. if i pull a piece of wood with a certain amount of force on one end, it doesnt matter if its bolted to another piece of wood or not the tension at that point is the same. the place where they're bolted though is a weakpoint that has a better chance to break before the solid wood does.

>>127280350
That would depend it. The way the neck wood was cut and/or the grain pattern could contribute to instability. And at a thin point like where a headstock curve is, there's more risk. And I don't think Gibson uses quartersawn on all of their guitars.

>>127280350
then why does it only affect solidbodies and not bolt on necks if they were otherwise identical? Right you can't explain it, bolts add support to it by taking off the tension.

>>127280384
probably because if it was a tension related issue, the part where the neck is bolted to the body would break first

>>127280350
Post the ibanez headstock. Not only will it be at a different angles like >>127280303 saif it probably has a volute too.

>>127280395
Plus bolt on necks always are better than solid-bodies in the sense that you can always get a replacement neck. More pragmatic and utilitarian anyhow.

Look at it beg for attention from its betters

They literally solved the shit and only reddit tier Boss haters hating on it.

>>127278296
He'd charge me more than a new guitar costs hehehe
>>127278336
Sounds interesting. Don't want to play anything but the sound I describe, cheap guitar will do. Oh, yeah the spider exercise, my fingers are slow but I was referring to my strumming hand haha
>>127278374
That sounds easy to do. Gonna give it a try. Any advise about the truss rod(i think it's called like that)? I read you need it to get a good intonation and adjusting the little things where strings rest (don't know the word for that).

Also, maybe I will pick up my guitar after fixing so I can battle my depressives episodes where I feel like doing nothing. No tv shows, no going outside, not calling friends, just feel life slipping away. I'll let you guys know when I pick the guitar again.

Oh and by the way, how much would you spent on gear to play shoegaze? Like I hear you got to spend thousands of dollars.

>>127280350
honestly depends on how the grain is running. threads have an absurd amount of strength though because of the amount of surface area

>>127280472
Any little annoyances with getting the right volts and wiring right outweighs digital still. Once you got that worked out, it's nothing. But digital is limited in how much you can run at once at their highest quality. The amp modeling+cab takes up a fuckton of cpu power. Then you're left with a handful of effects. Only the highest end units are generous. Any average consumer product hard limits what you can do at once.. or they throttle effects or the amps and they start sounding like shit when running at once.

>>127280494
The spider crawl exercise will help with your strumming hand as well, just use power chords instead of single notes.

i find that if i slow down what im practicing by 20-40% and close my eyes and practice it entirely based on feel and sound alone, it helps me learn it a bit faster and with better technique.

do you always want to have a little relief on your guitar neck? i set mine perfectly straight but it's buzzing like a bitch

>>127280468
For me it's Mississippi Queen.

>>127280493
----> >>127280528
I'm not a Boss hater though. I love their individual stompboxes.

>>127280583
You're supposed to have the slightest amount of upbow. As much straight as you can get away with, but not completely straight. The string vibrates in a circular motion and needs clearance. At the same time, you want your upper neck to be easy for chords and barre chords (therefore a little upbow in that area), and the flatter feel on the rest of the fretboard for easier leads.

>>127280587
Everyone from China/Reddit literally will hate on Boss for some reason (other than Japan/Taiwan whatever beef) and say its not the 90s anymore, to me they are just reliable budget friendly options.

>>127280585
He hasn't done that one yet.

>>127280583
.003"-.008" better guitars on the lower end, .0012" or so for a bass. if you don't have relief and the action is low enough they will buzz from string travel during vibration from the 7-12th frets. it's worse if you play harder or use lighter strings

>>127280609
Err not circular motion. I guess a slight oval? Either way, it needs a little clearance.

https://voca.ro/13O6yD82EYJF

>>127280738
Chinese Americans are OK with me because they actually ran from that shit. And they preserved actual Chinese culture. A lot of them are Taoist or Buddhist and all that. Ironically, China hates being Chinese. They destroyed everything Chinese because some retard read a book by a mentally ill German kike.

>>127280738
general tso is the best. i also like mapo tofu but that's more traditional

>>127280782
I might hate on Changs a lot that are in the west that exhibit the scummy commie chinese behavior but Taiwanese are fucking Bros for that, standing up for themselves and going against the grain and actually running a good country.

>>127277803
Is this the same for the rest of the song? What is the difference between a key and scale? I hear that some songs are 'in the key of g, b etc' but isn't this the same as the scale?

>>127280782
Taoists make the best egg foo Yung. Buddhist surprisingly make the best wantons. Which are an excessive multi step thing to make. But if it's sweet and sour chicken You're after you want a Triad associated buffet. Get in good with them and it's a foot in the door of the criminal underworld.

>>127280856
you can play the different scale positions in the same frets but play through the different key of the scale and its still in the same key because of the shared notes.

>>127280856
a key is like the captain of a group of chords. a scale is just a particular set of intervals within each chord within a key. for example in the key of C major your V chord would be G major. you could chose to use any scale over the C or G or any chord in that key such as the major scale, the major pentatonic, minor, hungarian blah blah blah etc

>>127280863
What about that imitation crab cheese bake with the celery? Cantonese speakers?

>>127280848
I get the feeling the worse Chinese Americans ones are just incels or something. But I'm talking about the older generation. I guess their parents and grandparents. It's the same as Taiwan. They're all defiant Chinese diaspora who are more Chinese in culture than China.

>>127280782
>Chinese Americans are OK with me because they actually ran from that shit
The stereotype of Chinese in universities/skilled-positions being spies isn't a stereotype for no reason lol

Bros every time I go into an Asian buffet the waitresses are so nice to me. I can't tell if they are hitting on me or if they are like that to everyone. Telling you senpai.

>>127280933
Aren't those exchange/traveling students though.
And to add what I said about incels above, I could see them selling out the US for the CCP. Promises of pussy. lol. I bet that's happened.

>>127280961
Ain't no chinamen ever called me a goober

>>127280892
>>127280896
I seriously don't know why this is so difficult for me to understand

>>127280972
Calling someone a goober is nice. That kind of means they have hope in you. Not a complete retard..yet.

>>127280980
Think of it this way:
> The last played note that brings it back to the original Key of your Scale makes it fit in that scale as long as its within the shape of the first position of 5-6 frets.

>>127280980
Whatever note you are fretting with your index finger is the key.

>>127281019
>>127281009
Ah that makes sense

>>127280980
key can be any note from A to G sharp or whatever. key just tells you what chords will be where in relation to the key center (see pic). most blues are a 1-4-5 progression. so if i play a blues in the key of G, my 4 will always be C and my 5 will always be 5. it's just a roadmap to explain things more quickly. the chord progressions also line up with the respect major/minor scale intervals of the key center. intervalic distances and by extension chord progressions will generally have the same feel regardless of key center. that's why similar chord progressions and scales largely feel the same despite being in different keys

What's the difference between a humbucker and a single coil?
I've seen Fender Squier Sonic guitars with three single coil pickups, two single coil pickups and a humbucker, and an all-black one with just a humbucker in the bridge position. Which is best for playing metal?

>>127281073
they'll all play metal but it's easier to overdrive and distort a humbucker because they have more output to begin with. they sound a little bassier and fuller because they can pick up a broader frequency range due to their size and magnetic field. they also don't generate as much background noise from electromagnetic interference

Why did Dicky Bets always seem so grouchy?

>>127281073
You can play metal on anything, but everyone told themselves it had to be humbuckers. Humbuckers kill 60 cycle hum (single coils produce a slight background noise) and are generally hotter. That's why they choose it for higher gain. But the pickup is not the only way to get gain.

>>127281096
The only reason to use a Humbucker instead of a singlecoil with metal is because it doesn't feedback like aids.

>>127281117
Because he lost a good friend and knew he couldn't ever let him down a/gg/ain. He was locked in.

>>127281137
Duane's playing makes me cry.

>>127281117
He's the opposite of Syd Barret. And that's nothing against Syd. He was a cool cat for sure.

>>127281096
>>127281124
>>127281133
So I deduce that the best one is the one with only the unbucker at the bridge, thanks for the explanation.

>>127281244
"Humbucker"

what's a good humidifier for electric guitars? all humidifiers i see online seem to be for acoustic guitars.

>>127281244
Your choice. I like single coils more, personally. I'm not a metal guy though.
Not quite metal, but there are bands rockin it on single coils. Especially P-90s, but Fenders can work too. It's not impossible:

Yes. The others are just shitposting you. Metal requires a bridge humbucker.

>>127281312
That second band is just 30 seconds to Mars but gayer attempt at what Nirvana was doing.

>>127281244
Humbucker has no noise but it is WIDER, for best results consider stacked humbucker aka noiseless single.

>>127280753
I've read white papers saying European moles instigated the ninja ethos. Not sure what to think.

>>127281264
the daddario gel bags are great at maintaining like 35-40% humidity and really easy to just slip between the strings. but if you live in an actually dry climate or have gas heat in your home you need a more heavy duty sponge type humidifier. i like the music nomad one with the built in hygrometer. keep it around 45%. but also look for signs of overhumidification like top or back bulging

>>127281331
You can always just run hot single coils that are active if I recall? a lot of times however its usually a H+S set up, Hot Rails is a common single coil set up however: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1m8nTHki_c

>>127281354
i just realize this may be confusing because most acoustic guitar backs and tops aren't actually flat. do you own research for over/under humidification please

>>127281337
I like their choruses. But either way, they have a big sound for single coil Strats and Teles.

>>127281327
huehuehuehuhe, the second half made me giggle

>>127281371
There's also the Quarter Pound (Ritchie's pups), which are kind of P-90ish in Strat form.

>>127281423
Yeah that's more suitable for Hard Rock/Early Metal like Sabbath/Judas Priest type of shit rather than a more modern sound.

https://voca.ro/1kXBAAuUd5bA

>>127281469
You can do what you want. Avoiding hum is the hard part, but you're not limited to genres.
Besides, half of the oomph of metal is in the bassist and guitar chugging combo. Not the chugging alone. Everyone just wants to shit on bassists (me too sometimes), but they're crucial for a ballsy metal sound.

Why is barring the first fret so hard

>>127281510
because you're a weak little sissy

>>127281510
Could be your action sucks. If not, just keep at it. You'll get used to it.

>>127281510
The nut is cut higher than the fret so its literally stopping you without significant pressure

>>127281510
Apply yourself. Analyze and interpret.

>>127281571
you're a goofy goober

>>127281530
It's an old cheap ibanez, no idea if it's normal or not.

No...
I'm standing my ground.
I'm convinced that the articulation of single coils + bass blending as one instrument is the best noise.
Fuck Djent. Need to keep the regular formula. What? Are we going to bring in accordion players next?

>>127281620
and what if we do? you gonna cry?

>>127281593
Say it again. I post something direct. And you say it's goofy? Just say it again bro

>>127281634
Yeah, probably. It'd be the End of an Age.

>we

>>127281620
man i don't even know what you're saying but i only listen to music where the bass is audible, if not front and center

If you are from da hood hard man only time you are strong is when you are surrounded 12 people that look just like you and you are afraid to stand out in a bar where they don't look like you, just how it is. You ain't hard, you are a coward.

Get it setup properly if you don't know how

>>127282047
>>127281510
Its always hard if you got average man hands, large hands will have it easy to grip and fret, its okay to thumb over the top fret, lots of musicians in the past did it and they had successful careers .

>>127282037
have you tried playing any of them?

>>127282037
Just buy an old martin and quit yer bitchin

I started playing a few months ago how long until I can make decent music

>>127282037
Why do you want an acoustic then? Just for something to toss in the bag and travel with? What about Taylor?

>>127282095
2 years after mastering the classics of the genre you are looking to create decent music in.

Nah I'm saying if you stop the vibe I'm ruthless. The vibe ain't anybody's dawg. You take it you take it from everybody. I'm a hard man. Spent time and got along with everybody. But I'm fuckin built.

>>127282070
no i live 2 hours away from any guitar store
>>127282100
i don't really play electric. i flat pick/singer songwriter stuff. it's more of a hobby for me. i'm saving now for when i feel like i deserve a better guitar. i'm making good progress but im still probably a few months away from feeling like im high-intermediate

>>127282128
you are only built to have a boot up your ass, you ain't him dawg.

What if I like a lot of different genres?

>>127282131
There are some Spanish guitar manufacturers you could look into they usually have options for under $2000 and even $1000 at student models for acoustic/classical/flamenco.

its just an ibanez gio. whats the problem?

See what I mean?

PLAY SOME FUCKING GUITAR BITCH

oh also i want covers on the pickups

Can't take anyone who plays a Solar seriously. Cool youtube guitar bro.

>>127282234
No, I don't think I will.

the candy apple red solar guitars are gorgeous

Black van, pull up to your momma crib, boy
Tie her up, drive that shit off a bridge, lil' boy

Y'all keep that same energy

>>127282253
Because only clowns play them. Not a single decent song has been made with a Solar guitar. It's the guitar equivalent of a Mr.Beast burger.

how do we stop the 7 string menace?

who asked?

how many people must fall for the floyd rose meme?

>>127282359
Fuck off jared dines

Who cares? If you have so much hate it distorts reality to the point of being unreal you already won.

>>127282345
True, they have that Kramer look to them but more pointy than blingy right?

>>127282382
>hate niggers
>win
I like the sound of that

the problem with solar is a lot of their guitars have a matte finish, which over time will polish with contact

>>127282379
this guy?

>>127282390
and they're made for retards

>>127282395
No that's ola egmund or whatever the fuck. They're all the same

>>127282390
i thought the whole point of fancy finishes was that they wear out over time. what the hell are people sperging out over nitro for?

this guy slaps your wifes ass in the club, towering over both of you

wyd?

>>127282388
How about you get out of this thread and let us enjoy our evening, instead of being assaulted with strange low IQ ramblings. You ever heard of the Ramones? Prolly have. But you don't hear them like I do playa.

>>127282408
This was only true for fancy guitars like Les Pauls with their Burst finishes which aged differently the longer you held onto one for. Which I can understand the appeal for having something that ages with you and then selling to some collector somewhere. Same with White Strats that age into creamy yellow sort. Those are the only ones I've seen people getting hype for a lot.
>>127282362
If it ain't floyd rose its not authentic TRV METAL. \M/

>>127282405
idk how they're made for retards

>>127282429
I've got bad news for you

>>127282421

look at how gorgeous this guitar is, man
WHY THE FUCK IS IT A 7 STRING FOR FUCKS SAKE

>>127282440
Yo that's actually pretty good especially for a 7 string, why you malding? Tiny hands?

>>127282440
and then here's the fucking 6 string variant
fucking ibanez

>>127282440
Dogshit guitar lmao. Fuck off back to youtube kid.

looks like gay enough for you design.

shut up retard
telecasters are for boomer retards who are still living in the 60s lmfao

You're right, but that doesn't make you not a 14 year old djent loving youtube influencer cock gargling faggot

How does he do it?

oh so you're a les paul boomer lmfao

hold up lads. real men coming through

shut the fuck up you suck dick for food stamps

>>127282458
it's okay if you don't get it. anything that isn't 4/4 might be a bit tricky for gramps over here to understand.

>>127282465
Your marvel snapback is on too tight jared

>>127282448
He's right

>is that... IS THAT A NON BOOMER GUITAR DESIGN??!?!?! AAAAIIIIIEEEEEE GEORGE HARRISON SAMA SAVE MEEEEE

>>127282472
Give me any song you think isn't in 4/4 and I will explain to you how it actually is in 4/4 and that you're incredibly retarded

hello beautiful

I hate sleep token fans so much it's unreal

uuuuh sure.....money - pink floyd

wrong you stupid fucking idiot retard

>>127282510
super strat literally means a strat like design, but done different in some way. so no.

>>127282515
Are you fucking retarded?

>>127282421
slap his ass back of course.

>>127282519
are you?

huh

>>127282519
clearly

How much do you guys think nigger blues anon weighs?

>>127282510
Superstrats are genx

>>127282508

>>127282532
at least 280

>>127282485
No one would give you shit if you weren't such useless faggots in everything about your lives. The guitars is barely a part of it.

kingfish weighs a fuckton

>>127282535
>Eddie van Halen, Ritchie Blackmore, Uli John Roth, etc were gen x

why is everyone yelling stop it right now

>30 year olds calling each other boomers and zoomers

>>127282542
i don't understand, you mean the body carves? probably not many if any early examples of that.

but a superstrat.....its in the name. production guitars that are like updated strat designs. double cutaway, maybe 24 frets, maybe a floyd style trem. HSH or HSS pickups. the body carves are just a modern design thing

>>127282542
A large chunk of guitars made in the Matsumoku factory in the early 80s. What's your point?

>>127282424
NTA but nothing wrong with racist mate

>>127282572
prove it

>>127282542
ol pal jeffy has you covered anon

uh oh /gg/ i think they messed up my order

>>127282588
that's a modern design

>>127282606
>find me ONE guitar with curves like this
the fuck else you want from me? the ibanez is modern too retard

>>127282619
*sigh*

>>127282542
That's just a strat somebody absolutely fucked the surface of for literally no reason. The bones of that guitar have remained the same since the 80s. Carving angles into the top does nothing.

>>127282626
the boomers are getting uppity because it doesn't look like a normal strat to them

>>127282577
There's something wrong with everybody cuz.

>>127282622
use full sentences anon. what is it you want us to prove to you?

>>127282634
Wrong way around, it's this jared kid who's having a melty because he thinks "his" Ibanez (he owns a squier) is not a superstrat or something

>>127282650
it is a superstrat though?

>>127282650
oh i see. it's a modern RG, the original superstrat. what is there to misunderstand?

>>127282578
Here you go. ONE example of a super strat manufactured by Matsumoku in the 80s, with a bunch of retarded carves in the top. As per your request.

A super strat is a Fender Strat with humbuckers.

>>127282677
not the same. not even a superstrat. looks more like an SG that had a baby with a strat.

>>127282658
Oh yeah he was saying that it IS a superstrat and that superstrats are modern and not actually a product of the 70s/80s

>>127282678
i mean, that might count but the term doesn't refer to just one guitar.

people were hotrodding their strats, then companies started making them production models to meet demand.

>>127282697
superstrat is the base
the difference in design that makes it a superstrat in this specific case is modern

Solo on Buckingham Green on that public access show was far out. I hear he likes a dry wine.

>>127282693
Unfortunately for you it's a superstrat and it is the same. Cope with your mental gymnastics all you want. This guitar is spiritually an Ibanez btw.

>>127282708
>here's some completely different looking guitar that I will claim shares the same design as that modern guitar. no, you are the one who is wrong!

Nigger blues anon gotta weigh 475 at LEAST

>>127282708
eh, it's got parts like a superstrat but it's closer to an SG or a hagstrom in body shape. the "strat" part is missing

>>127282549
None of them designed the superstrat

>>127282728
True
Leo Fender designed the super strat
They all just put gibson pickups in it

>>127282718
You asked for a guitar with curves like that, you got it. Mald all you want champ. Go play your Squier some more or something

>>127282728
eddie carving up his partscaster, adding the floyd and the humbucker would qualify as super-fying a strat to me.

check out my new superstrat, anons

He's mad lmao

>>127282788
you see, they took the strat design, and then carved it differently.

someone make a new thread god damn

>>127282797
no this one's still good

WOAW!!!!! now this is le heckin EPIC!!!
Look at those curves bro, so le heckin!
>tightens marvel snapback
Le heckin!!!!

how about this superstrat

>>127282821
you made up a guy?

>>127282821
that looks like a 12 year old designed it
>>127282440
this looks like an architect designed it

>>127282834
color and finish aside, they're pretty dang similar

>>127282718
>one horn significantly longer than the other
>6 in line
>25.5 scale length
Superstrat.

>>127282857
>>127282857
>>127282857

>>127282843
wrong. >>127282821 just has the body carved evenly throughout, adding no interest to it's design. whereas >>127282440 selective chooses carves based on ergonomics (the top left), and then following the curve along the outer edge to represent a sort of falling, off center face like a psychedelic trip while adding interest through accents.

>>127282871
You own a Squier affinity, Ibanez is not going to fuck you
