I’m a believer in Adirondack tops

>>128218020
yeah

>>128218013
The fact that you can get a playable, good sounding acoustic with a rosewood fretboard for 259 dollars in 2025 is insane. Rosewood fretboards are usually a 200 dollar upgrade on guitars. They have to be losing money on these to earn brand loyalty in the future.

Considering running one of these with my stadium for those super lush gilmour solos and to add real tube toan to my digital rig. It's an interesting concept. Maybe just use it for like a dedicated lead switch.

Bronco Bass country... Let's ride...

I wish the hot stack still had this cover instead of the blade being visible

Guys with 21 fret guitars, do you ever feel limited by them?

>>128218868
I want to get pic related, install a 59 in the bridge and hot stacks in the neck and middle then get a Tyler preamp and switch set.

Another one for the wish-list . . . . . .

https://youtu.be/PH9KBA5D8T0

>>128218879
I don't miss anything. But I guess it depends on your tastes. Just about all of my favorite players used 21..and rarely even went that high.

>>128218009 (OP)
Do you think about the chord progressions when improvising? Do you always rest target notes in the chord I?

>>128218879

Most people dont go past the 12 fret, or more precisely past the usual cowboy chords.

Its like how most dudes dont use anything but the bridge pickup.

In addition to my fave guitar being made in 2021, it also has 21 frets. Stand back bitches.

>>128219216

dishonest guitar playing

>>128219336
He kinda cute ngl...

>>128218879
No. Anything I want to do higher than 21 I can bend to. I don’t really solo past the 19th fret even on 24 fret guitars. I can easily bend 21 to 25 if I need a 24th fret note with a half step bend in it nbd.

>>128219350
I'm pretty fucking far from ok...

>>128219411
Same. I just hope my car gets done today and there’s no longer any problems with it so I can at least door dash this weekend rush and save for a guitar. I don’t even know if I’ll have 100 dollars left over after this shop squeezes me for everything I own (2600 maybe 2700 dollars)

>>128219151
This is essentially the jazz approach to playing through chord changes yes. Targeting chord tones while ornamenting with diatonic and chromatic passing tone on the weak rhythmic beats.

>>128219305
>scallops the shit out of some priceless vintage strat
nothing personnel kid

>>128219433
Same. I'm literally starving to death. Oh well. It's only rock and roll.

>>128218879
I never go past fret 15 or so. Also high tones are unpleasant as fuck. Only good part of 24 fret guitars is that you have exactly 5 octaves making it esy to experiment with it.

Hallucinating from hunger. Oh well I'll play some guitar instead.

Which model is the sasquatch of the guitar world?

Relics are growing on me

>>128219570
Probably the OG Gibson Korina V and Explorers. Not many made. They took on mythical status.

>>128219679
Wait, if you mean just a general "model" specifically, maybe a Travis Bean.

>>128219472
>>128219556
Just eat the guitar lol

>>128219647
I just love my super stratoplank with a dragged in the parking lot look and feel.

>>128219647
It only has 21 frets

>>128219570
Double cut Telecasters
They didn't even put out a Squier version

>>128218879
I technically don't count since I got rid of mine but I used to have a 21 fret Telecaster and not having the 22nd fret bothered me so much that I had to get rid of it. Good guitar, but I do need the extra fret, I'm up there often and I did feel limited by not having it. Now as pertains to 22 versus 24 frets, that's a bigger consideration, because neck tone which is very important to me is being altered. You can get good neck tones on a 24 fretter but it's never quite the same.

>>128219679
Was gonna respond to the relic guy up above saying I still can't get into them, but actual old as shit guitars like this I think look great. It reminds me of something like a mythical old sword with patina and vines and stuff growing over it. Relic due to honest use on 50+ year old guitars can look good, I guess that's my compromise.

>>128218009 (OP)
Currently building a Bass VI from parts and I'm really trying to emphasize the bass part of it, rather than the baritone aspect. I'm gonna put a set of .24-.105s on them, put a humbucker in the neck to get a nice low end sound, and maybe put a Lace Sensor in the middle to get more of a mid bite, something that can cut through while distorted, and nothing in the bridge position.
>what 6 string guitar pickups are really good for capturing the mids/lows of a Bass VI with really heavy strings?

>>128220922
>I've always wanted a 6 string bass tuned to EADGBE, but almost every one I look for is in BEADGC, so I got interested in the VI, but apparently because it has single coils, lighter strings, and a 30 inch scale, it doesn't really cut it as a standalone bass, so I thought, why not combine the best of both worlds?

Refining the arthoe approach by branching into TRAP COUSTIC music.

https://voca.ro/1f6gYzJZm6sX

>>128219647
I’ve never specifically wanted a relic and would never deliberately choose one or pay more for one, but I have two relic guitars just because they were local, priced well and played and sounded great. I think relics are fine when you approach them purely from the standpoint of if it’s a good guitar regardless of its finish.

>>128219647
I have come to realize Charvel is the most versatile all around guitar. They've always seemed like a joke

>>128221533
they’re pretty good at returning back to the store

>>128218868
this would be very easy to make to print on a resin 3D printer. even if you don't have one you could just model the part and have a 3rd party make it.

>>128222146
kek i just saw he has a kramer there. but he's played charvels for awhile now.

I have a LTD EC256 and i want to put gold hardware on it and replace the pickups.
is the post spacing on these the same as a gibson les paul or do i need to get specific an import spaced bridge and tailpiece?

I'll be replacing the knobs and pickup rings with black ones

>>128222277
I’d be incredibly surprised if any company is making an alternate size abr bridge. that isn’t to say that it wasnt manufactured poorly and doesnt fit well, but it was supposed to be the same size.

>>128222360

>>128222704
They're perfect for Standard and I'm tired of pretending they're not.
Unless you play a Gibson.

>>128222593
Based. He probably put Charvel back in the game again, shit like baked maple necks, stainless steel existed before but rose in popularity when he was with Suhr and compound radius when he moved to charvel.

>>128222647
Supposedly their QC on average is better than F and G in general when you pick them off the rack. Have you tried a few? I've only tried a McCarty 10 top once, it was just okily dokily feel wise but I don't like gloss necks and they never come with SS frets. Set up was medium action as well but it's probably due to owner's preference.

>>128222689
Just test it out by swapping in 10 11 12 or even 13
How slinky it ought to be is just preference unless it buzzes horribly.

>>128222917
I've yet to see all of these shitty guitars from Fender or Gibson or whoever is big.
Occasionally I see some faggot luthiers on youtube complaining about fretwork even on guitars with rolled edges. I think they're full of shit and trying to sell their own stuff. It's next to impossible to get a neck with rolled edges yet somehow the worker decided to slack off on the frets. It's hard to ignore one if you're doing the other. Yet some bald faggot on Youtube is the word of God and going to correct everyone.

>>128222593

>>128222704

>>128223061

Excerpt from a post-rock/ambient thing I've been working on lately
Only guitar, bass and a background synth pad added so far
Might use it as an intro for a song if I can get it to git gud

Also posting this question in /prod/:
When I record a clip using FL studio and my guitar (through a Focusrite Scarlett), usually this noise comes up at the end of every clip, even when I'm absolutely not playing. What is it?
How can I avoid this?

>>128223670
sorry man not listening to your fag music despite your best efforts to paint it in a more appealing light

I want to return some pedals i bought a few months ago and get some different ones so I think I'll do that. I think I'm going to get a tuner and a compressor not sure what else I want to add. Since I'm on bass I dont feel like i need a lot of pedals but I like having different effects to try.

>>128223814
The Carl Martin i have takes up too much space so thats one of the ones I'm getting rid of

>>128223844
What pedal is that?

>>128223814
fuzz envelope chorus and flanger is all you should ever use on bass and that’s in descending order of importance

>>128223791
What kind of computer are you using? These kinds of noises and pops are often caused by CPU overload.

>>128223870
This one. It's nice but it's just a taking up too much room. I've seen a small red dynamic compressor on other boards. I'm also thinking i might not need it. I thought I needed an ns2 but I'm also going to sell that. I have a spare so I'm okay with getting rid of it.

>>128223874
Lots of songs I like use more than those effects so I gotta keep trying new stuff till I find my sound

>>128223620
There is daddy’s little girl variety and I intend to take his place when he’s out if the picture. Until then, classic rock state fair festival circuit rock with robots chomping at your balls. My tone is better than Lemmy’s on a $50 Goodwill bass.

How the fuck am I supposed to solder my output jack with only two hands

>>128225337
bend the lead into a hook.

>>128225337
you can pre-tin the wire and the hole on the jack and just hold the iron and wire but real talk everyone just buys a clip stand made just for soldering

>>128225337
one hand holds the solder, one hand holds the soldering iron, the wire just sits there
or
solder over the hole on the jack lug, then put the solder down, pick up the wire, melt the solder covering the hole, slide the wire in, remove soldering iron

Why can’t charvel put out pro mod plus models of the so-cal with JB/59? Why is it the San dimas model that has the warmer more vintage pickups? It makes no sense. I want a guitar that looks like this but sounds like the San dimas I had in white. I want it to look as warm and versatile as it sounds. It’s so frustrating. I almost just want to buy one and swap the pickups because other than the pickups it’s exactly what I want. If I can make enough money by the 10th and they’ll give me 20% off again I guess I’ll order it and just get a set of jb/59’s for it.

>>128225425
Just swap pickups when you have the cash for them, it’s not like SDs are hard to find or terribly expensive. You could always sell the stock pickups to get some of that money back too

>>128225471
Yeah I think that’s what I’m gonna do cause other than the color I loved that white one. The neck is perfect, it sounded and played great. I can’t go back to a regular Floyd after the push in trem. It just makes it easier cause I know I play that guitar really well and enjoy all the features but the color and look wasn’t ideal for the type of music I play. Hopefully I can get one ordered by the time my stadium xl comes in. I just have to door dash 12 hours a day for the next 2 weeks.

>>128225523
I wasn’t into that white color at all, it looked like printer paper white. Off white/creamy white/aged white/cum white is a good color but printer paper white is too sterile looking.

>>128225564
Yeah I wasn’t that into it either. But it was either that or flat black. At least this one will look like a regular Strat to most people so if I’m playing classic rock or pop stuff it won’t look completely out of place. It’s easier to swap pickups than do anything with the aesthetics.

>>128223814
I didnt really need the boost so I might return that but got a cheap compressor and a cheap tuner. Maybe one day I'll try and learn guitar again. Pedals are cool but on bass there are lots of limitations. Seems like it's pretty quick to turn into dark fart sounds.

>>128225587
I bought this for my dad earlier this year because he loves superstrats but also wanted a hardtail one and honesty I regret giving it to him. It was a really nice guitar and like him I also prefer hardtails. Whenever I visit I always end up playing it for a while.

>>128222360
They should offer silver sky for less than $3,000 for that kind of money you're buying a Fender. I don't care what anyone says.

>>128225776

The PRS McRaj
McBrahmin

What is it called when you slide up into a note? Say you’re playing a lead and descending down you strings and instead of going from your index on the G string to your pinky on the D string you instead use your middle or ring on the D string and slide up a step or two into the note you’d otherwise be hitting with your pinky? Is there a name for that? I use my pinky all the time but when I’m lazy or if what I’m playing isn’t really requiring 100% focus I end up defaulting to using another finger to slide up to the note instead of just reaching one or two frets farther away with my pinky.

Another finished project.
The White stuff on the speaker is spray glue.
Had to fix some tears in the foam surround.

>>128226183
bad technique. sliding is for expression or position shifting

any of you ever played any baum guitars? adds for them are always blowing up my fb and insta.

Don’t think in terms of modes - think in terms of triad + everything else. This helps when you just have the chord form

>>128226457
that’s called a position shift

look we can all be friends here but for Gods sake don’t neglect your pinky

thanks

I love playing guitar on the weekends. I just play and practice for hours and I feel at one with my instrument. Now I just gotta pic up a drum set and a bass so I can start my album

Just picked up a nano clone chorus and am testing a riff I've been working on. Also I need to learn and mix and master. Did I subconsciously steal this from somewhere

Sounds like kurt

I bought a mess of pedals and a 40W amp months ago but all I ever do is play unplugged because I don't want to annoy the neighbors. ROCK AND ROLL

We're just one schizo talking to himself. How can we all be friends. The other guy can't use his pinky. Stop bullying him. If you want the pinky talk to me.

I’ll take that as a complement for now

It reminded me more of the Cure. But nothing specific. I love the Clones and Boss alike.

I'll rape you with my left pinky. Just try me.

Boss I can trill with my pinky at 240 bpm I wouldn’t risk it.

While probably true, bad technique is the reason many guitarists are unique and interesting to listen to. Hendrix and evh both had horrible picking techniques.

>>128229881
yes I studied james jamerson who only played bass with one finger. he relied heavily on open strings and and rakes to maintain rhythm at brisk tempos. you can incorporate those idiosyncrasies without developing bad technique tho
