Honeymoon phase hasn’t ended yet almost three months later, if anything I like it even more. I don’t have any guitars anymore that I remotely dislike, and all of my electrics are at least an 8/10 for me, but this Tele takes the cake of them all

Larry david poster is funnier. Dare I say his vocas are better too?

You need to read up on your /gg/ lore seinfeld doesn't voca.

I have suspicions of which reggular is which.

What’s the deal with Vocaroo?
You click a link, and suddenly you’re hearing someone breathe directly into your soul through a potato.
“Hey man, just wanted to say…” SKKKKKKHHHHHH
What? What did you want to say?! Speak up, you’re being devoured by static!
And everyone treats it like it’s some sacred art form.
“Oh bro, the delivery doesn’t hit unless it’s on Vocaroo.”
Yeah, because the delivery doesn’t hit
it’s buffering halfway through your punchline!
And you can’t trust them, either.
Could be a confession, could be a meme, could be a guy eating chips into a $4 headset.
Every Vocaroo is like opening a mystery box of disappointment.

I have suspicion about you too blud

I'm just sad and disappointed. I had a feeling it was going to go this way today but I truly wanted to believe that something could happen. Its just impossible for me to carry a session because I'm not that good yet. I love my friend and I think he's a good guitarist when he's keeping himself sharp. The last time he played before this was September. I did record everything we played. If i don't post it tonight, I'll post it tomorrow.

>>128398434
Be more freeform. The majority of nonserious people don't want any rules or pressure. They can normally handle challenges though. Bait them into playing music instead of noodle slop. "Do you have any good riffs?" Then try to chain a few of those. "Can we play something that sounds X?" Like sad, eerie, happy, radio, whatever style. Just vamp on the first thing that comes to mind and hits the fretboard. Maybe "lets write a 10 minute Blink song" or some music you guys connect with. Give them structure without forcing them into a disciplined routine that they'll reject anyway.

Recording is nice that if you ever hit on something decent, parties might want to try to play the piece again or make it better.

>>128399100
I know but the plan is to eventually pack it all up on a shipping container and send it over. Idunno when that's going to happen, I don't have any plans to visit at the moment. I don't like buying stuff that I already own, and the other issue is that it's complicated and difficult to obtain permanent status in another country, and I have only just secured all that so now I know I'm actually sticking around now. I do own some stuff that's one of a kind and can't just be repurchased

>>128399329
I've been very preoccupied with uni and career and I've moved cities a lot. Things are only just settling down so now I'm thinking about all this stuff again. I did live with a friend for awhile who had a whole studio so I was able to play guitars and stuff there,but for the most part I've pretty much fallen out of making music and I want to get back into it

>>128399327
>takes you 3 weeks to learn
hippy wigger bullshit

I thought we were having a chill night. Why can't it be chill?

What am I ding wrong with my pull offs? I'm trying to speed them up but if I do a 3 note pull off for example, on the high E string, I will pull the string off the fretboard and then it makes a harsh sound, also if I'm playing on the middle 4 strings, I'll hit the string below sometimes. How do I fix this?

>>128399373
Are you flicking? I'll ask my guitar teacher if she flicks when she's pulling off.

>>128399368
I'm having a very chill night anon. Having some homemade veggie soup and a butter & cheese sandwich and listening to some nice dark ambient while I read

>>128399447
It's not a flick for me, I kinda just pull off

>>128399028
These on 25.5 scales.

>>128399327
I don't even remember when I learned vibrato. Seems like it's always been there.
But Clapton's always sounded sweet.
I can't believe Evertune not only prevents bending, but vibrato too. WTF is the point?

>>128399962
More than that, vibrato is like the most natural technique of them all. It happens all the time in the voice. Nobody has a truly smooth voice.
To design an instrument without it is all fucked up and retarded. Who is this for?

trading the sg for a J45 tomorrow

>>128400135
Not sure how you pulled that off. What kind of SG?

Well, you don't. It was a meme created by Leo Fender. Based autist still fucking with everybody beyond the grave.

How fast do nickel frets wear out compared to stainless steel ones?

>>128400347
Go headphones

>>128400347
How's the RE 202? I like those sweet dubby sounds but shit's way too expensive, Boss became out of touch a long time ago

>>128400418
nickel frets can easily last over 5 years without anything but regular maintenance, you can further extend that with a fret crowning

>>128400534
Not too shabby. Thanks, anon.

>>128400642
NTA, but that's with heavy playing too. They'll last far longer for the average player.

>>128400657
Cool, thanks. I have a nice JP made Ibanez with nickel frets on sale in my area rn, so I was wondering whether I should bite. Now I think I might.

>>128400534
>>128400418
Steel on the other hand will (allegedly) last longer than you, so it's probably worth the upgrade if it's an option and you plan to keep the guitar forever.

>>128400375
So THAT'S what that fucking Standby switch was for all these years!

>>128400691
Yeah, I think I will refret the guitar with stainless steel frets eventually, if I get it. I was just afraid that I'd have to do it within a year or something.

>>128400704
SS frets only started becoming common very recently. Fretted instruments have been doing fine with nickel for ages so don't worry too much about it.

>>128400716
Aight. Thanks a bunch.

>>128400485
i love the RE-202. I used it on my board almost all the time since i got it, I also used it on my tb3MO when i was making acid music. But yeah I admit that right now it's just a very expensive slapback echo that's addding stereo dimension to my guitar, which I record in mono lol. Sometimes I even want th smaller one because it would be more convenient, but I like dub shit too and wanted the big one. There's so much BOSS gear that I want to get, a lot of it older. Idk how I became a BOSS head after using so many pedals in the past but I love the form factor and sounds.

>this dude played sax, why didn't make an electric saxophone or something
He was more of an electrician. He started making PAs before any instruments. Then amps. The guys who were buying his amps were mostly country music guys at the time and they nudged him to make instruments too. He was clever enough to learn how to make steel guitars first (since it was what country dudes who wanted), then guitars. The afterthought product...that ended up being huge.

>>128400799
nah bro

>>128400729
Yeah I've been eyeing the RE2 for a while simply because it's cheaper, but it doesn't have the kind of controls that allow you to do the kind of live tweaking that makes anything become dub. I've always liked Boss stuff because it's reliable and sounds good, but the reputation for being affordable is long gone.

I only bought one like 10 years ago, when S2s came out. It wasn't anywhere the Standard price. Immediately turned it back because the 24 fret body looked weird. I told myself I'd try a 22 fret one day, but never got around to it.

*dies of writer's block*

>>128401135
>>128401172
So is the Strat.. but can be more you want.
Or you could hardtail it. And futz around with as many odd tunings as you like, unlike a Floyd Rose. It's not perfect, but the Strat trem is still the best of all worlds for a variety of styles.

is there any advantage to fingerpicking on electric guitar?
https://voca.ro/1bdFnu9buPLf

For me, it's the Italian 1965 Welson Kinton

If you want a certain sound, or range of sounds, how do you tell if you need a certain type of electric guitar, or amp, or pedal/effect? Can you just keep buying/chaning effects to change the sound and use any guitar or amp?

is it true that for some asian cultures the minor key actually sounds happy rather than sad?

>>128402789
imo the most important part of the amp is the speaker, but uncs will be hooked to vaporwave and tell you loads of BS about pedals and amp heads
with an EQ pedal, some distortion and a good speaker you can do almost everything, 99% of an amps character is actually the speaker and when you try out different speakers with the same amp head it really shows

>>128402789
You used to be able to buy guitars in shops that would let you play them first, in some cities this is still the case. If you're looking for an electric guitar with a flexible range of sounds, any of the Fender Jazzmaster style guitars like the Jaguar, Mustang, Jazzcaster and any others has a lot of different sound textures for the pickups on the bunch of switches all over the guitar, I had a Jaguar and would recommend it highly.

Tell any regular person that you own a mustang or a jaguar they are gonna think ur talking about a car and it's lame af, but if you tell people you play a Les Paul people are impressed.
Just saying

>>128402969
>I had a Jaguar and would recommend it highly.
Just did a quick search on guitar center and they list the Fender Jaguar, new, from $5,750 to $869. I cant play really so obviously the more expensive models are out, but what do you really get for a lot more money and how does that effect sound?

>>128403113
Look for the Fender Squier edition of the same guitar. It's the same guitar only it says Squier in a bigger font than the Fender logo on the headstock, that's basically the major difference. It's less than $500

>>128400910
When I was like 12 or 13 I think I subconsciously told myself to never get a Telecaster as it was a sign of becoming an old fart. Must have encoded it into my DNA because last year I thought I saw a Telecaster that looked pretty cool and then when I was considering buying it I suddenly remembered that flash of instinct about it

it's sunday

He's a bi/gg/ guy after all...

thoughts on Ibanez Q54 and headless in general?
looking for a workhorse that weighs nothing for my shoulders during long practice sessions

blessed positive vibes poster

drunk ordered a stratocaster off DHgate, came too in a haze and saw a $160 charge on my credit card what the fuck.
I have
>MIM loaded pickguard
>Fender USA neck
>A couple random unknown 60s-70s single coils
what do I dew with this abomination when it comes in?

>>128405104
get a better strap. you probably won’t notice a pound and Ibanez under $1k stinks. definitely the worst qc of any major manufacturer in the budget range

>>128399073
king.

>>128400347
the dust everywhere, misplaced rug, and cable management in this photo genuinely give me anxiety. What the fuck, anon?

>>128405104
lift more unironically, even the heaviest guitar is like, less than 10 pounds anon.

>>128404968
That doesn’t count, is has to be at least as steep as the duo sonic

>>128405317
the q54 is like <5lbs its a significant weight difference

>>128405411
then go for it I guess

that's why I gave my guitar a size reduction. now its knobs are weirdly spaced but at least my back doesn't hurt any more

>>128405456
fair enough i was just asking if anyone had any experience with headless
theres a few out there so exploring options

>>128405457
>literal chatGPT slop
fucking lol. When I was infantry we would walk around all day with 50-90 pounds of shit strapped to us. If you distribute it well, you'll hardly feel it. Don't be a bitch, anon, and don't rely on chatjeetpeetee to make your arguments - it'll strip you of your own ability to express arguments.

>>128405503
mmk jocko lmfao
chatgpt just approximates the available information on the internet
you sound like a boomer who took my question as like a personal challenge to the concept of masculinity for no reason
i notice shoulder soreness after long practice sessions so i was inquiring about lighter guitars, if you dont have useful input thats cool

>>128405540
nta but start bulking, sissy

>>128405540
That's your problem - you're ignoring useful input. The useful input is "lift more"
Do you want me to lay out the exercises you should do to improve your strength and stamina in your shoulders? Because I can do that.
You shouldn't try and minimize pain through making your load lighter - fundamentally, you should try to increase the loads you can carry - this will help you FAR MORE as you age. Take it from an oldfag - you hit 30 and if you aren't getting stronger, you're actively making yourself weaker.
I'm not saying this to be a cunt, I'm saying it because it's the true answer.
If you want to improve your stamina with a strapped guitar, your upper, middle, and lower trapezius and rhomboids are going to need strengthened. This will pya off dividends as you age.
I could genuinely give you a workout plan if you're not going to be a smarmy little cunt about it, because I genuinely do want to be helpful. But this is 4chan - if you can't stand to hear "don't be a bitch" when you're being a bitch why the fuck would you post here?

>>128405618
thats a long post my dude
i skimmed it but you still just sound like youre still just lecturing me about lifting which I already do and its also off-topic for the guitar thread
if you have any recs or input regarding headless guitars ill read it but otherwise pretending youre actually being helpful and on-topic by lecturing me about how hardcore and badass you are for wearing backpacks full of bricks or whatever when you were younger is really cringe lmao

femboy gf like this to practice guitar with?

>have to go over to family’s house for a birthday
>just wanna stay home and keep my toobs warm and play guitar

>>128405900
you can practice reading music or ear training with earbuds or music theory or something while youre there
just dont be too autistic about it, they are your family after all

>>128405689
Whatever faggot.

Got one of picrel second hand for one of my axes but it doesnt have a cover. Can I just slap a classic 6-hole cover if it fits? I have a few of those laying around.

Worried about tone issues because these pickups come with different covers from factory.

>>128405104
I don't hate headless but they hardly solve any problems for guitarists. You can travel with an electric guitar easily, especially if it's a bolt on.

>>128406136
nta but I just have a cheap ernie ball strap from when I was dirt poor and unemployed
its alright but its kind of ugly
got any comfortable recommendations?

>>128406163

meant for

>>128405457
Why are we pretending that every guitar is 10 pounds, you can find 7 or 8 easy
Also why are we pretending like you play for 6+ hours every day, no you don’t

>>128403113
NTA but personally, Jags and Jazzmasters have a wider range of tone than Strats or Telecasters with the caveat that you get one with a rhythm circuit. They’re also more robust guitars, if I had to pick one guitar it would be a Jazzmaster with Jag as a close second. Another major selling point is the tremolo, the Jag/JM trem is the best trem for what I use a trem for. They can be finicky guitars if you don’t set them up properly (shimmed neck and raised bridge to get a better break angle for low action and increased tuning stability). They were designed to be Fender’s deluxe models and this remains to be the case to this day. They filter a lot of people and have gained a bad rep due to reddit queers adopting them as musical Funko Pops. That shouldn’t deter you, they are excellent guitars and are a great platform for mods.

>>128405365
Whatever you have to tell yourself bub.

>>128406163
i gotchu bro

>>128406190
>more robust than the Telecaster aka the hardware store special

>>128406216
unironically would

Levy 3.5-4.5 padded strap if you want the most comfort

>>128406190
Not him, but I love jags, I just can’t personally quit teles. No matter how many times I try, the simplicity brings me back, but I play a lot of math-y stuff. If I played more shoegaze or alt stuff I would 100% go full jazzmaster.

>>128405249
You know it’s going to be an Aliexpress Chender, don’t you?

Learning the bass cured my racism.

>>128406235
ill check it out anon thanks

https://youtube.com/shorts/FDIXDbs5OdY
I do want a jazzmaster but literally all of them seem like a project. I don't know what it is about them, on paper the trem has less moving parts than a strat trem, but it's always some bullshit that you don't really see with a strat.

>>128406294
not mine ,':^)

maybe i should sell my bass guitar

>>128406190
>Jags and Jazzmasters have a wider range of tone than Telecasters
My brother in Christ, I am a hard shill for offset guitars but even I think that's some crackhead-tier bullshit.

>>128405484
what did you downsize to?

>>128406021
worried bump

>>128406371
NTA but objectively 1M pots in the lead allow for a wider range of tones already, and 25k pots in the rhythm circuit provide more on top of that. And unlike a mustang out of phase the tones are actually useful.

luv me Teles
luv me Strats
luv me Mustang
luv me Les Paul
luv’d me Jazzmaster when I had one
would luv me Jaguar (IF I HAD ONE)
just luv guitars bros, but luv me Fenders most

>>128406410
the route and pickguard needs to be wide enough for a cover, if so yes a cover will wotk

>>128406507
yes it fits just fine there, so the 6-hole cover shouldn't affect the pickup's output negatively, right?

I don’t keep up with or care about the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but hearing that my nigga Warren Zevon got inducted made me sit down and learn some guitar parts from his records

I don't like shortscales but if you find yourself unable to adapt to one, that's a technique problem not the guitars problem.

>>128406279
100%, but hopefully the body will be salvageable for a partscaster

ef minor

I'm going to buy a Gretsch and start wearing leather jackets and grow my sideburns out and slick my hair back and drive hot rods and call everyone cat ya dig

>>128406845
F#m for me

post something

>>128406864
word.

Is there anything more premium than a Gibson in one hand and a Gretsch in the other?

>>128406986
yes. me

>>128406986
How u gonna play both at the same time anon that dont make no dang sense

>>128406986
a G&L

>>128406950
get a double bass and you can join my psychobilly band and play songs about teenage lesbian vampires on motorcycles from outer space taking over the world

>>128407141
f

>>128406986
you should hold me in your hands instead handsome

>>128407141
So you can be a whiney bitch? I had sympathy for G&L owners recently, but I don't get them anymore. They think it's the end of the world that Fender bought the assets.
Like this retard. He doesn't look that old, but he's larping like he's part of Leo Fender's family in the 70s and fighting CBS.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdBF7MWrHN0

>>128407141
I can't wait for fender to put z pickups and the dual fulcrum vibrato in a Strat, and never use the G&L name ever.

>>128407206
>The death of G&L has lead to the death of guitar honesty, integrity, and values.
What a drama queen, will not click play with a description like that.

>>128407249
Maybe he's a clickbaiter. I've seen him pull similar shit before. But that headline does represent some things I've come across in writing.

Wait a sec it’s Jee and Ell and not Gandle?

>>128407279
Gandalf Guitars would be the shit.

>>128407291
GTG guitars will be the cheaper import line, GTW the US made higher tier models.

>>128407276
That's why you ought to disable autoplay on click and read the description, sometimes the comments before you determine if a video is worth giving a view to

What's with the G&L hate?

>>128407413
No idea, I fucking love G&L.

I fucking love another company doing exactly the same thing Fender has been doing for a century.

I don't hate em but after the revstar I think i'm set.

[...scene...]
Gary Greaser walked down the dark path off of bourbon st. The bass from the clubs oozing down the alleyway. He had his resonator in hand. Revolver in his waistband. He knocked on Leo Gauss's door. He let him in and led him to his laboratory. "So you think you can add built in plate reverb and a fuzz switch?" Gary tentatively asked. "I can do that, I'm also going to put in piezo pickups, and a realtime reverser. Midi pickups too, Gary. You're gonna love your tone", Leo said as he was rolling a huge joint. His pupil like saucers. "Leo man be careful, remember what they did to Syd...". "I can taste your thoughts Gary. I can feel the pain in you. But it feels beautiful"...

(Apple bottom jeans starts playing/flash cut to Gary and the Shack Boyz jamming in a seedy stripclub. Everybody out of their mind as Gary shreds open another dimension on is cyber resonator)

>>128406297
no problem. might not be enough for you but worth eliminating the strap before buying a different guitar. I play a 9 pound bass for 4-5 hours with no problems

>>128406248
For me it’s the opposite, I like all the knobs and switches. They don’t get in my way and I actually use the rhythm circuit on both guitars and the treble cut on the Jags. People bitch about accidentally hitting switchs which I can see on a Mustang (just add spacers or buy low profile switches, simple as) but on Jags/JMs you have to be trying to hit them, have some care and precision for fuck sake. I definitely get the appeal of a Tele, I haven’t had one since I was a teenager and was too new to guitar to appreciate it, now over a decade later I can see really loving one once I find the right one. It’ll be a deluxe though, I have other guitars that cover twang well enough, twang really isn’t my thang DESU.

>>128398718
You gotta love em
