Is it worth it to spend the time/money/effort to build my own guitar instead of just buying one used for the same price?

It seems like a lot of fun and a good way to save money but I also don't really know what I would do with it outside of just basically building a generic Fender, and at that point I might as well just buy a Squier and strip the paint off/put in new pickups and save myself some money.

What could I add/change by building my own guitar that would differentiate it from a regular Jazzmaster?

You could cut the headstock in a retarded way.

>>73599452
building guitars is a hobby, it's not about saving money. the time it takes to build a guitar from scratch kind of negates the whole saving money aspect.

a good middle ground is just buying parts and putting them together, maybe learning how to do fretwork, electronic stuff, how to cut nut slots, etc, smaller stuff like that rather than learning how to carve and shape guitar bodies and necks from scratch. it's a lot of work

>>73599710
Yeah, I mean I put together a bass from a kit a while back and the experience itself was definitely fun and worth doing again just for that I think. I just figured as long as I have the ability to put together a guitar with literally anything I want in it what can I think about adding that doesn't make it just a Fender with a different color. Right now I don't have any ideas for it and it seems like a waste of potential.

I know a local shop that builds custom guitars and puts preamps in theirs, that might be interesting to explore.

How do you guys stay motivated to keep writing?

I realized I'm like halfway to going back to school in the fall and I haven't come up with shit. Last summer I wanted to have something finished before I started university and I just kept pushing it back.

I love playing and writing and I want to have something worth listening to and playing live more than anything but I keep letting it fall off like everything else I attempt. I don't want to just talk about it without doing anything for fucking ever

humbuckers that can be switched into single coils with a switch. like on the HH jazzmaster. i have one and i think its really awesome.

i would really really like to get a guitar kit some day... if nothing else i think you should build your own just for the experience. if i could i would do a semi-hollow telecaster. or at least i think i can remember seeing a semi hollow telecaster kit somewhere.

but yeah dude build your own. come back and show us results.

what is the best type strap

>>73606000
Thanks. The guitar is my old Schecter with Chinese active Duncans. It's on the neck pickup with the tone rolled back. It's recorded DI - the rhythm is some basic Guitar Rig stock setting, the lead has some compression, EQ, reverb, a tiny bit of gain from a Sansamp plugin, and very slight vibrato (more for the slight tone difference than the effect)

>>73605987
Is your amp literally balancing on a cardboard fucking box?

>>73606116
i dont know if it was balancing

>>73598147
black metal doesn't usually use really low notes, go for a 6. if you like Ibanez necks go for an rg550, nippon folded 1000 times quality, and relatively cheap

How do I play like Justin Trosper of Unwound, and Keith Levene?

>>73606177
why in hell would someone want to play guitar like justin bieber

That's just the amp head. The cardboard box is actually the speaker cabinet.

You won't ever need more volume from an amp. Focus on EQ settings if your guitar doesn't cut through a band at that decibel level.

>mfw i learn that plebs actually TRY to write songs
>as in, anons on here literally sit down and try to write lyrics as if it's some school project or something
>plebs complaining that they have no motivation to write

Motherfucker, if you aren't writing because you have to, then don't bother writing at all. Don't sit down and try to write a song like some homework project. You either have something to say, or you don't.

I've met fucks like you and I'd never let one of the fucks join my band.

>>73606817

I don't think about string choices much. I always use the same Martin M140 Bronze strings for my Yamaha FG700 acoustic. Could I be choosing better, or is it a subjective matter? I've never gotten on with Elixirs because they sound muddy to me.

trash, worthless vermin, the lowest of the low, in my opinion
they are not "artists", they are nothing
music for indie cafes
music created by "art students" and people studying music degrees
these people chose music as a career move just how some choose marketing manager
speaking of which, they'd all be working in marketing had it not been for the internet
and the internet giving them a sense of false hope
implanting the idea that they can be cool too,
into their small pea sized minds
they have nothing to say
they have nothing to bring
they don't have a seat at the table

Well, it's just done to death, isn't it? Maybe it's just me, but I can't stand this plank wankery shit. It's just not... music, is it really? (Alright, it probably is to some, but for me, it isn't).
Steve Vai-esque guitar wankery is what I'd call it. Just pointless noodling.
Fuck knows, it's just not my type of thing?

I agree dude, it's so boring and derivative.

Anyone familiar with Railhammer Cleancut pickups? Can't find a ton of info about them online.
There's a guitar on CL that's selling for about the same price as a used one of the same model but with these switched out for both pickups. I know pickups generally don't add a lot to the resale value of the instrument but it still seems a little too good to be true considering that's like a $200 upgrade.
All the reviews/descriptions I've read of them describe them as "twangy" which I'm not sure I like but based on the one video I could find they don't sound half bad

>>73612790
record and post here

>>73612880
What is tone?
Explain it to me. I might be tone deaf.
My ears are fucked anyway. One of my ears hears music in a lower pitch to the other, so my instrument sounds out of tune in one ear, at all times. Or even listening to music, one ear hears it slightly lower pitch, making it sound out of tune and almost dissonant. Permanent damage, I'll likely go deaf within my lifetime or so I've been told.

And I can't record now, but I will at some point and ask again. I think I'm just fucked...

As someone relevantly new to playing can someone please tell me why some Gibson's cost as much as a small family car?

Does a Les Paul really have to cost around $2500?

Guitarists are dumb. And by extension so are you now. The fact that you had to ask why a piece of wood with some metals and plastic screwed to it costs so much (even though it was built in a factory which should bring the cost down) demonstrates this.

Fair points, made me think why I do actually enjoy shit like that.
It kinda gives me the same vibe as funk songs, its groovy to me. While at the same time there is so much happening in these kind of songs that I never fully comprehend it wholy, which is what keeps it interesting I guess.

respect for that. Just make sure its progresssing into something, no use in working a lot and still being poor.

A serieus reply to your question would be to have something to work towards for. (probably not correct english but fuck it)

Like a little show with a temporary band with whom you play covers. You rehears a bit and it'll keep you playing because nobobdy wants to look like a fool on stage. Or maybe hang out with a friend every once in a while and jam a bit, it'll motivate you.

Thanks dudes

>>73611733
>>73612872
First thing is learn your scales and positions on the fretboard, then start improvising to simple backing tracks to get a good foundation of melody and phrasing. And I'm not an expert on jazz, but I can help you a bit with that sound. For rhythm playing, use extended chords and other chords you don't see as often (diminished, augmented, minor/major, etc). The goal is to build a progression based on a scale, but it has "out" notes here and there. For example in the clyp, it's all based on G# Minor. Mostly it just changes with a sharp 7 and flat 2. The chords are:

4 6 4 4 4 6 (G#m9)
0 2 2 0 2 2 (Em6add9)
x 4 2 4 4 0 (C#m9)
x 6 5 6 7 7 (D#+7#9)

4 6 4 4 4 9 (G#m11)
0 2 4 0 4 6 (EmM#11)
x 4 6 8 0 0 (C#m9)
0 0 6 6 4 4 (AM#11/E)

So do Fender have chink guitars or not?

I got one of those in my guitar bridge position. Sounds great. It does have some twang, but it can do other sounds it just depends on the style you play. Using the guitar's volume helps. I usually have it at 5 and it's a clean tone. Roll it to 10 and it gets dirty, but not muddy where you don't hear the notes.
Hope this helps a bit.
