first for mustangs

anyone have any idea why my volt 176 audio interface is suffering from microphonic feedback and static interference when I use the compressor ? It's even happening a bit without it. Will have to call their warranty department tomorrow. I've checked my guitar and cables and they're not the problem.

>>127349620
do you have a mic plugged in?
is direct monitoring or some equivalent turned on?
is the compressor set with 2000dB of makeup gain (exaggerated)

>>127349590 (OP)
very nice, but you ain't seen nothing yet

if you dont play a tele, strat, LP or martin dont go to nashville apparently.

>>127349664
why tho

>>127349672
because mah country

>>127349678
yea i know what you mean
ive had fun gigs there. but they were punk and metal gigs
the big cuntry bars wont even give you the time of day unless you play their specific strain of copypasted nonsense
i struggle to see how such scenes even develop
who wants to see the same genre every night? i dont even like seeing that for the whole set. nvm just for forever

>>127349734
when will prog-country take off? i can imagine these crusted on locals raging that "it's just not what real country artists do"

>>127349590 (OP)
Is there some good guitar free courses on blues?

>>127349821
>when will prog-country take off?
when u do it

>crusted on locals raging that "it's just not what real country artists do"
and thats rly what it is desu
its a genre feedback loop
just completely averse to anything outside their bubble
theres a glut of great players there, but you couldnt kill me to sit through some virtuoso rendition of a dolly parton song

>>127349734
briefly turned on a country station the other day and 4/5 songs were that same huckleberry cowboy shlcok, and the last one was the same idea but "cherry pie cowgirl". who even talks like this still.

How's the theory coming along my students, are you all absolutely understanding guitar?

>>127349901

>>127349900
dont b raycis
it dey culture lol

its a bummer since bible belt sometimes has rly cool underground shit going. but they all die hungry since no bar owner wants to take a "risk"

>>127349641
No, no, no. I have accidentally clicked the phantom power button when I'm trying to adjust the volume or something in the dark because it's literally on the edge of the interface and can be pressed with almost no pressure. If I do run the compressor I run it in guitar mode. My gain is always as low as it can go, with instrument mode on. I think I have a defective unit cause the compressor has never really sounded good.

>>127349821
I always thought country metalcore or country hard rock would do really well as a genre. I just don't know enough about country guitar to do it myself.

>>127349993
I read the manual and figured out a few things. One I needed to lower the input gain on neural dsp itself because even with gain set to 0 i'm pushing too much signal, and also I figured out that it was primarily the channels built in that have compressor pedals active on them that were feeding back. I didn't realize I was double compressing. So idk it's still really noisy but it does sound better than without it. With the vintage tube preamp and the compressor on it almost sounds like a real tube amp.

you guys know any audio drivers for windows 11, been a tedious nightmare since I installed it

NICOS' TECH NICO KNOWS TECH

>>127350282
Um what. You need audio drivers for your specific motherboard / card / interface not for windows. Search for device manager, find your audio hardware and search for drivers.

>>127350170
I meant to say the presets in my amp sim that had software compressors active on them were the ones acting up the most. I was in a game and not paying attention.

Hi I need to get eyes on helping me in getting this Alfred's Basic Guitar Method course books audio code still. The real book is out on loan now until Aug 29th due to renewal.

You can extract the ebooks if you want to for yourself or just read them online. I have provided a link. Thanks a lot if you can help.

How does the neck feel? Is it super thin? I’ve been curious about them but I like a fat 50s style Gibson neck and don’t like necks too thin, am afraid the Firebird neck would be too thin for me.

>>127350764
The ebony fretboard pro plus models with matching headstocks have contoured neck heels. Not that it matters because the neck joint on a regular pro mod is fine.

>>127350820
Oh nice.

>>127349887
Depends on what guitar style you're after. Ebook with audio wise yes, lots. Arnie Berle's Beginning Finger style Blues Guitar with audio is excellent. Just wish there was video available for this excellent ebook.

David Hamburger - Anything by him actually. He's an amazing teacher and player. But for a course that's incredible look for the Complete Blues Guitar Method (beg, int, adv)

All this stuff is out there online. Annas-archive has the books. But not the audio. Rutorrent has all of it.

how do i find that itch to start practicing again

>>127350859
Sleep with your guitar. If you don't break her, she will put out in the morning.

>>127350859
I practice every day at the same time like eating lunch of brushing my teeth, I don't think about whether I want to at all

>>127350859
listen to something sick

>>127350838
Here is the David Hamburger course on the Internet Archive site to checkout before finding it elsewhere. Has the audio code embedded. Very handy. You'll need it.

Good advice
Sage all fields

guitar is so ticking noisy the sustain is being cut off by the noise gate

>>127351114
use more vibrato

>>127349887
I know I'm a cunt for ignoring your question, but I think you should just pay the money if you got it. Everything is free if you know where to look and take your time, but fuck doing that. The best blues fingerpicking courses you can get from Stefan Grossman at guitarvideos dot com. Justin Johnson is a great player who also gives lessons, but his library isn't as expansive yet. Although that might change in the next two years as he is adding lessons very fast. If Stefan Grossman is not for you you could also check out Tom Feldmann of PlayCountryBlues. For electric blues lesson try Griff Hamlin of Blues Guitar Unleashed. No alternatives here because I think he is the best in that space. Advanced Blues guitar lessons you can get at Truefire.

>>127351110

What does sage all fields mean?

>>127351195
Justin Johnson is amazing. I second this and third it.

>>127351198
it drives out the ghosts

>>127351195
Griff Hamlin blues guitar unleashed version 2.0 is also excellent. You won't need anything else.

Can you capo and electric guitar?

>>127351277
do whatever u want maaaannnnnnn

Headless guitars are kinda comfy ngl
They are growing on me. I think I'm gonna buy one.

>>127351303
by "growing on you" do you mean youtube just recommended you more headless guitar videos

>>127351297
What movie is this from?

>>127351317
its not
thats just he answer

>>127351340
No it's from a movie ive heard it before I just cant remember

>>127349612
Christ I played this for my BIMM audition in 2007
where does the time go :(

>>127351316
Nope I mean the local guitar shop got Ibanez Q as well as Strandbergs now and I could finally try some for myself.
Though I must say while the Strandberg design is very good, they are NOT worth that price in terms of quality.
And by growing on me I am mainly talking about the look.
I don't log into youtube and I clear my cookies on close. What kind of "headless guitar videos" would Youtube even recommend to me? Youtube guitar reviews are garbage.

>>127351348
well i havent i dont watch movies

its just the answer to every question about guitar or music ever

>>127351303
I’ve been thinking about an Ibanez Ichi10

>>127351277
Of course. You can even capo your weenie if you really feel the urge.

A capo is just a "nut" replacement. It helps you to shorten the strings and transpose in easier/more familiar chord shapes which can help match your vocal range.

Captcha: srv2v - Stevie says so...

Alright guys, here's todays tip. A free, very usable (has lots of alt tunings too) guitar tuner software for Windows. It's small, no nags, viruses or bullshit. It's ugly as sin though. Author got into a fight with Photoshop filters many years ago it looks like. But this thing works awesome and has been free for years.

I share it with you to add to your collection.

Features:
- High accuracy (uses 16 bit / 44100 Hz input!)
- You can tune guitars with no signal output (through microphone)
- 27 different tuning types (standard, lowered, dropped, open tunings, Hawaiian etc.)
- Modulation of root frequency
- Tuning with midi tones
- Nice and simple environment
- it's free!

Look for the DOWNLOAD button on the webpage dgt230.exe (1.3 MB)
https://guitar.sk/guitar/guitar_software.htm

HINT, when starting it under DEVICE switch it to MIDI to hear it through your speakers. Otherwise it defaults to FOURIER which means it wants a microphone input and you won't hear shit...

Doesn't work

>>127351611
Some of the tuning types. You will hear the audio for these.

You can also change the MIDI instrument to something completely whacked.

pro tip: no grill? bring a tube amp to the cook out instead, you can cook a grilled cheese on there

>>127351303
They're well balanced and 24 fret is nice.

That game made me pick up guitar.
Thanks Mr. Tyska

too hot outside

I’ve always been averse to sg’s because I think they’re ugly as fuck and Satanists play them.. but maybe I need to look into them. It’s not like Gibson designed that guitar to look like devil horns, did they?

>>127352968
When I say I should look into them it’s because Les Paul’s are my favorite sounding guitars, but I hate how heavy they are (shoulder issues) and I hate uncomfortable they are sitting / how hard they are to play in the upper frets. This would pretty much solve all the things I dislike about Les Paul’s while keeping most of the tone I like.

dumb question. does scale length make a difference in sound? for instance these two guitars are similarly shaped, both use p90 style pickups, but as you can see one guitar has the bridge halfway through the body, while the other has it near the bottom. i would think the strings covering more of the guitar would mean more vibration, therefore more sound. but what would i know

>>127352966
FIGHT!

>>127352968
Do you avoid playing Tritones?

>>127352990
It makes a difference in how much tension in in the strings. Higher tension strings tend to sound brighter. My Strat with a Duncan JB in the bridge sounds brighter than a Les Paul with the same pickup in the bridge. Of course where the bridge pickup sits in relation to your fretting hand matters as well. All guitars will sound different.

>>127352968
>>127352985
I never play my SG. Balanced like shit, body is too thin, your fretting hand feels like it's in another zipcode when playing the lower frets. Only piece of gear I own that I regret buying.

I only play SG

>>127353025
No, I’m Christian. I don’t like how many actual literal Satanists have adopted that body shape.
>>127353053
I have really long arms, the only thing I’d be worried about is neck dive. But yeah idk maybe I’ll just stick with Les Paul’s.

>>127352968
Do you think Zappa was a Satanist? I can see why you would think Angus Young's one (Highway to Hell, Hell's Bells, yadda yadda). Just curious. Also, doesn't Dweezil play an SG like his dad's? I don't know too much about him except he seems passionate about music and he's associates with anyone who excels with music as a study, including Noel Johnston, who gives me the impression of being a pretty traditional evangelical conservative Christian kind of guy.

>>127352968
>It’s not like Gibson designed that guitar to look like devil horns, did they?
Dunno. Even Les Paul the man didn't like them "because they looked like devil's horns"

>>127351611
if you're using a microphone anyway, just use your phone ezpz

>>127353088
Not denying that. but mean I'd have a hard time even naming proper satanist bands. Unless you mean the satanic panic inflationed use of the term.

>>127352598
Well lets hear it, slick.

>>127353100
does this look like the guitar of a satanist?

>>127353088

No they don’t, both guitars have the bridge right behind the bridge pickup.

Bought this niggas courses on Truefire last night and just starting going though his starting one, and he’s very good at teaching and explaining. I’ve learned a lot though his YouTube videos and this is just that more focused and cranked up a bit. I’ve never paid for any guitar instruction, already I feel this will be forth it at around 20 hours for $60.

>>127353560
NICE! Where can I get the APK?

>>127353136
AC/DC for one. Angus young has said he likes the body shape because it reminds him of devil horns.

>spent the weekend at an anime convention
>did not get any practice in
Woops

>>127353270
you get way more than 6 combinations

>>127353100
I’m not saying everyone who has used an sg worships Satan but those who do (Robby Krieger, angus young, kerry king, synyster gates) tend to gravitate toward guitars with devil horn shapes in either the body or headstock and I don’t want that kind of bad juju in my life.

>>127352968
SG's are neck heavy pieces of shit and religious connotations aside they should be avoided. Other double cuts are awesome though

>>127353715
you forgot Tony Iommi

>>127353715
I think those guys mostly use it as an aesthetic whereas the real satanists are the ones that most wouldn't suspect so much, like Eddie Vedder or 60s bubblegum pop guys.

>>127353817
Eddie's actually one?

>>127353669
>not bringing it to the con

Why are PRS guitars so divisive?
Genuine question.
They seem pretty good, even the SEs from those I could try for myself.
Not quite my taste when it comes to their look, but not sure why that would matter. I don't like Teles either but I don't see a reason to hate them or anything.

>>127354592
paul says tone woods are what makes his guitars sound so different. what he really did is change the scale length slightly and the neck pickup is closer to the bridge than other guitars because of the fretboard length

>>127354622
Seethe endlessly

>>127354557
Every PRS I've played has been great but they're just ugly and I don't see the value. I don't need $2k worth of cosmetics on a guitar that's going to get scratched and dinged up anyway. Some people are really into specific grades of flamed maple tops and the guitars themselves are top quality in that regard, I'm just not one of those people.

Mainly because they don’t have any unique tonal character unless you’re going for a buttrock sound. I’ve owned a few se’s and played cores. It’s kind of like a Strat, tele, and Les Paul combined but it doesn’t do any of them that well. For a cover band, they’re pretty versatile in that regard because one guitar can do a wide range of songs, but it’ll never be the exact tone you’re looking for.

>>127354817
You shouldn’t be gripping your neck so hard that it feels sticky. I’ve played all kinds of necks including PRS SE’s from poly lacquered to nitro to tung oiled to unfinished. I currently play an unfinished maple neck and don’t notice much of any difference between any of them. I’ve never though hmmph this neck is “sticky.”

I learned these two scales from a DVD that came with my first guitar and never committed to learning any others. Is there a decent youtube video that could teach me another 5 or more?

>>127356174

That’s him. And it’s Steve terryberry I think. I’ve never voluntarily watched a single video that fag has ever posted. Can’t stand his face or his voice, and he sucks at guitar to boot. It just goes to show you that there’s retards who will watch anything.

I've never played an FG9 so I couldn't say, but my HD28 is quite good

>>127356470
Are you me?

>>127356202
Why is the room so clean. Doesn't look like you rock desu

>>127356525
to me the fg9 is like if a j45 and a d18 had a baby. very punchy mids and articulate bass but it's got a bit of that warm, sweet scoop

>>127356590
For what its worth, I like my J45 more than my HD28
Based on your description of the FG9 it sounds like you might want to go for it

Sunburst late 1990s CIJ. Sunburst is my absolute least favorite finish Jag (Olympic white with a tort guard on a Jag is peak) but for the price I will not complain if I decide to get it. Pickups weren’t actually upgraded, I misread the add. It does have a Mastery Bridge and an American Vintage vibrato unit though, that’s nearly $400 in upgrades right there.

>>127356633
true enough. also i agree. i really love j45s

congrats bro. we're all going to make it

>>127356766
Worse, he's a neet schizo shut-in. The vocas tell the true story.

>>127356796
I think she/he's just a fleshlight fantasy.

"Dear Mr. Fantasy, Play me a tune. Something to make me all sappy!"

The fan fiction. The pure shit vocaroos and poverty gear exist in some disability funded squalor.

What does the Les Paul tone sound like?

What vocas we talking here cause if you link my vocas send location bud, I'll be on the next flight.

>>127356862
This could be a song lyric...sounds kinda rap like though

tl,dr: I'm curious about getting a hollow body guitar. Thoughts on them?

desu it's mostly because Killing Joke's Geordie Walker used one and I love their sound. A lot of reviews I've found of different guitars say they're kinda unwieldy because they feedback a lot (some claiming this problem is "fixed" by semi-hollow guitars). On the flipside Geordie said he preferred it because playing chords on a solid guitar all the notes become a muddy mess, whereas with his hollow body he could hear all notes push through. In my music I might use a lot of suspended chords too so that kind of clarity would be nice.

>>127356862
our local disability case has good gear though tee bee aitch eff ayy em

>>127356864
Muddy Liquid shit with creaks of failing headstock volute.

yeah didn't think so, when push comes to shove you fucking pansies quiver in your britches and shit your pants. keep talkin on the internet boy thats that goofy shit.

>>127356873
I have a couple. 335's They're heavy even though thin line style. Sweet necks, nice and long and tapered. Slender at the headstocks, kinda fat up higher but not in the way. Sound is great but you can get feedback sometimes with mics and amps. I like them personally. But I have always loved mickey mouse ears. Mine were both setup perfectly so I have never had to fuck with them. They can fit in a regular acoustic case too or electric case.

>>127356873
They're cool, yeah
Honestly I don't notice a whole lot of difference between my hollows, semis, and solids
But I'm also not blasting it out at Nuge volume

moving from a C/G open chord to a G7 open chord without lifting your ring finger is fun. very tricky when you're first getting used to it

>>127356925
Would you like to try that again this time up to tempo?

>>127356934
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBFsFUyDGF8&ab_channel=VanHalen-Topic

The tempo is fine and I wasn't even listening to the song or using a click

>>127356873
meme instrument. Electric guitars were made solid for a reason, don't be a retard.

>>127356945
Count again

>>127356736
That's because you have exceptional taste

>>127356947
You're just not much of a musician to handle stuff like that. Stick to your knock-offs in your mom's basement poverty kid.

Can't wait until the blisters on my fingers heal to start doing exercises again

>>127356972
I hurt your feelings? Gonna cry?

>>127356931
Not really if youre good

>>127356958
I’m not counting retard I was just noodling. I’m not even in the right key to play along with the song. I don’t care.

>>127357004
no one starts good

>>127357000
I aint cryin. You are! I play circles around you kid. And I am the king of tone.

>>127357009
So the answer to the question is no.
Next time a simple "No" would've sufficed.

>>127356864
like weet child of mine

>>127357025
I’m not even sure it needs to be sped up, it sounds fast if anything but I’m not gonna sit there and check the tempos.

>>127357032
you're really not making me believe you don't care. I only asked because I think you could do it.

>strum with medium pick
>inconsistent upstrums
>strum with light pick
>consistent upstrums
Are upstrums with medium picks supposed to be this hard?

>>127357044
no upstrumming is no more difficult than downstrumming once you practice sufficiently.

>>127357044
no, your hand is being gay

>>127357048
How long?

>>127357041
I think you didn’t know it was a song and that it was supposed to be slow tempo. I play plenty faster lol.

>>127357023
heh you'll never top this
https://voca.ro/1f9rtaTcsLHG

>>127357044
I’ve never sucked bad enough to consciously think about how hard an upstroke was, so no.

>>127357044
Sounds like you're death gripping the pick and haven't developed the proper touch with your strumming hand.

>>127357062
thats like asking how long it takes to masturbate, idk dude its your dick you just keep going until it happens

and that's exactly why I stopped opening vocs

>>127357089
cause you can't play better and they make you sad? same.

>>127357082
this advice also applies to everyone wondering how to find their sound

I'm looking at videos and now I don't know if imp holding the bass incorrectly or if im just having trouble because its a 5 string

>>127357110
No you just suck

>>127357089
I for one love shitpost vocas with smoke on the water and iron man and other equivalent songs played intentionally poorly, always makes me lel

>>127357115
>intentionally
haha yeah

>>127357091
someone will post something in earnest and then there will be 3 shit posts following it. we could have had a cool duel ala karate kid and steve vai from the classic movie "crossroads" but instead we get this.

>>127357110
by holding I meant fingering

>>127357125
i would need more explanation to offer any assistance

It's the Guild tonight.

>>127357123
Well he set the bar low and nobody has topped it so maybe what he was saying wasn't ironic and was being truthful, you'll never top the shittiest cover of ironman you've ever heard because you're beneath even that.

>>127357110
imps are tricky things. beware.
but desu many bassists hold and play their instrument differently. victor wooten and les clayplool both slap, but their technique is different. find what works for you, just make sure you don't use positions that'll give you carpal tunnel syndrome

>>127357101
Finding your weenis is like finding that tone?

I get told I'm fake because apparently anything that takes more than a day of practice isn't real.

>>127357133
lol yeah. if you only knew.

>>127357145
You're real, and we see you, Anon. Even though you're called anonymous (we all are) you're words and feelings count for something, Anon. Never forget that.

>>127357143
anyone can maneuver their shaft, but finding the stroke length and angle that hits just right is where it's at

>>127357163

>>127357130
This is how im accustomed to

This is how I see it in videos more or less
https://files.catbox.moe/3mcqph.mp4
Its like they are already touching the following fret

>>127357196
Nice job Anon.
Is that the Epiphone Joe Pass with flatwounds?

Too clear for PAFs. Maybe a Gretsch.

>>127357246
desu I think it's just a matter of dexterity and practice. but there's different ways to play that. if you start playing the 5th fret with your pinky, it's easier to leave your index on (or close to) the 2nd fret, and just lift your fingers to reach the note instantly. or if you want to do a slide, play the 5th with your index and slide down. can also play the B note on the 7th fret of the fourth string. so you start on the 5th fret with your middle finger, then use the pinky on 7th on the fourth, and your index for the 4th fret on the third

>>127357246
keep your thumb in the middle of the back of the neck and hold the bass like you're holding a sandwich. you should be able to play very relaxed even though it's a bass. you're gorilla gripping the hell out of that thing. you could stand to angle the neck up higher to put less tension on your wrist but idk if you plan on playing metal and slinging that thing down to your knees

>>127357226
I don't have tabs I play by ear. Sorry.

>>127357249
its a Gretsch G6136 with just regular ddarrios

beans and toast is my favorite meal

>>127357428

>>127357428
beans are good on their own, specially with a longaniza. But on a toast?

Any tips for getting quick at transitioning to barre chords?
I can play them fine but going from an open chord to a barre chord takes more time than I'd like

>>127357549
like a young merle travis

Does this mean there's no muting?

>>127354557
>Why are PRS guitars so divisive?
Because most people who try to play guitar don't know anything about guitars.

It seems only people who can't afford them (and the SE line is very affordable) have a problem with them.

While not everyone chooses to play or own them, I've never talked to anyone else in the music business who doesn't respect Paul's guitars - and Paul himself.

>>127356964
Excellent taste, indeed.

*picks up DN612 from stand*

>>127356964
>yo dawg how many pole pieces you want?
>just fuck my shit up

>>127357715
Just do it slow over and over and over and over and very very slowly speed up once you’re comfortable doing them at the speed you’re at

>>127357831
Some of those Carvins are stereo in that they’ve got two jacks and can plug into two separate amps, the 12 pole pieces are for splitting it stereo.

>>127357882
interesting

>>127357728
no that means you're playing eighth notes

>>127357865
Lucas Botkin says slow is slow and fast is fast

>>127357715
no one talks about this but getting faster at guitar takes time. getting fast at chord transitions takes weeks if not months. you can only develop so much muscle memory at a time. it's better to practice it for like 15 mins a few times per day and focus on clean technique

>>127357924
well where the hell did the rest of the note go?

>>127357926
Lucas Botkin is a twink neverserved who speeds up his footage and scores very poorly in matches

>>127357932
they're paywalled

>>127357944
>neverserved
Served who?

>>127357956
Neverserved Israel and the new world order obviously. As of current times will neverserve his brothers after they stole his business from him and caused him to quit by letting the son of one of the big wigs in the company send dick picks to Lucas’ wife and then not discipline him at all lmao

>>127357882

It was the 1980s brother they did a lot of useless features.

>>127357758
Darn, PRS haters are real quiet after this truth bomb.

>>127354592
>qrd?
Paul's whole shtick is that he has a photographic memory for tones and superhuman ears (his actual words, not kidding) and therefore even shit like switching the material of the tuning pegs from metal to hard plastic absolutely DOES change the tone and sustain of his guitars and you should totally fork over Fender custom shop money for an assembly line guitar because the woods that create the best sound just so happen to be the most expensive pieces of maple and mohagony there are.
He is basically the equivalent of the guy who sits down at every student rally to debate them about gender and race but in his case it's tonewoods.

>>127357929
I don't have time man, I'm not going to be around much longer. I just want to be at least decent before I go.

I wonder how much the price of the company will drop when Paul dies in a not so distant future. His whole persona is what makes the brand so accessible to the gullible richfags that swallow his every word.

SE Indonesia shitplanks are already their biggest cashcows, that's why Paul is now so aggressively shilling his SE "quality" in most recent videos like that one with Rick Beato where they spent 20 minutes masturbating over three 60s strats only for Paul to whip out an SE and start his snake oil chants.
Tim Pierce now plays the SE from the video, who knows how much cash Paul is paying him for that.

It's really fucking funny to see Paul behave like a cult leader in front of fat rich boomers during a talk at Chicago Music exchange talking about the magical qualities of extremely expensive toanwoods only for him to go onto the biggest music youtuber some time later and shill his Asian shit planks against six figures worth of Fenders. Guy couldn't be more of a grifter if he tried.
