Anybody ever had problems with the Rumble 200 Head amp?
Yesterday I had some problems with no sound output and then it started to heavily distort no matter the position the intensity, gain or drive pot were, and it's been like that ever since.

A mate is offering his digitech xp-100 to me for 200 aud. Should I go for it seeing as I'll do the jetpack mod on it? What's a digitech xp all worth?

>>70426274
an arpeggio is a broken chord. the 7th arpeggios you see in that picture include the 7th note of the scale, and are the same as a broken 7th chord. all the notes in an arpeggio are in the scale, because all the notes in a chord are in the scale and only for that reason. i find it useful to practice both 7th arpeggios and arpeggios with just the 1, 3, and 5

>>70426310
they're a chord with 3 notes. a chord is defined as having at least 3 notes playing at once, so triads are the smallest chords

Hey guys. I literally just bought a guitar and I'm tuning it. I managed to tune every string except for the second to last, which sounds off to me. My tuner says it's tuned to B but it sounds a little weird and isn't as taut as the other strings. Is it fucked?

Is it worth investing in a Michael Kelly guitar? A friend of mine that plays in a jazz fusion band swears by them, but I'd like more opinions.

>>70427482
I haven't played one in years but I remember them having really cheap necks that you find on the cheapest made in china guitars. It's like they're made to look nice but are much cheaper in build quality.

Played fine though, those new ones with the Lollar pickups are potentially great deals.

>>70427482

>>70426310
chinese mafia type group.


triads are 3 notes.

so a major triad is made up of these intervals

1-3-5.

so if you wanted to play a D major chord you would first check the D major scale to see what notes is in it.


D E F# G A B C#
1 2 3 4 5 6 7

take the first one(D) third(F#) and the fifth(A) and you've got yourself a major triad.

heres where the fun begins.

you could stick a 7(C# note in this case) on that major triad and make it a major 7th chord. cool huh?

>>70427477
higher price better toan its a fact

>>70425486
Ibanez makes some good guitars. They make some junk, too.. but most of the major manufacturers have a junk series.

>>70426291

Gstrings is good. Also smartchord is good. Smartchord has scales, arpeggios, metronome, bunch of other shit too. They're both free.

Also, tune the B to the G string's B (4th fret) if it's an octave low, you'll know. Unless the G is low, too.

Well, the factory was cutting hours and shit. The boss guy goes around undercoverbbwith employees, they tell them usual sob stories about thier lives and woes so ya feel bad. One guy tells him he has another job lined up, needs to quit. At the end guy takes off disguise. Tells people how happy they are to have dedicated employees. Promises them bonuses, raises, etc. Part that killed me is they convinced the one guy not to leave, promising him these things. Then they FF 3 months or whatever, never delivered anything they promised. Guy missed out opportunity on new job cuz he stayed at peavey and everything and they were going to close the particular factory they shot it in. When they asked the boss guy wtf, he said "they can't afford it, that's business"

>>70427636
You'd probably have to pour another 200 bucks or so for a good set up and decent pick ups, but if you like the way it looks then go for it

I put a piece of card on the strings by the bridge and played percussively with a whammy bar. It's weird as fuck, but it's already been done. At least the card-mute thing has, I added in the percussive playing for good measure. True innovation is nearly impossible by now

>>70428080
That's business lad

>>70427866
thx m8
>>70428120
Sounds awesome. Did you over dub at all? Kind of reminds me of John Cage's prepared piano stuff, I feel like more tonal music is rarely explored with prepared guitar everyone kind of went in the 100% timbral direction.

>>70428080
he actually followed them around, listened to their shitty lives and ended up sacking them?

that's a cunt move albeit hilarious since those shows always have a happy ending

>>70428226
Yeah, the main whammy-percussion track is on the left, I did a 'lead' attempt on the right playing with a pick

Here's the same sounds but with some simple pentatonic stuff, kind of playing into the oriental feel of the timbre:

https://clyp.it/danllbyh

>>70428241
Not sacking them. Promised bonuses and raises and just never delivered. >>70428122
It sure is. I'm glad i don't work for them. On the upside, they tank and go out of business, old peaveys will probably go up in value to collectors, they'll develop some kind of "muh old peavey toans" meme....... Or more likely some Asian company will buy the name and they'll be a garbage joke brand.

Bruh why did you post this? I think I'm going to cry and vomit at the same time omg

regarding this: >>70424866

You actually can play a bass in classical guitar position easily. It's just a matter of holding it at around a 45 degree angle. Reach is not an issue. I always play this way seated. I started doing it this way because when I play standing I prefer to have the bass at that angle as it reduces left arm fatigue, at least for me. The classical guitar seated position allows bass to be at same angle I play standing up and roughly same position in relation to both arms.

>>70428621

in reply to this: >>70424919

>>70428621
When i decide to play my bass i hold it classical seated position. But generally only play shit like 7th fret upward. Dunno why. Maybe because i usually just play guitar parts on it, or make up meal/doom riffs like a guitar part. Throw the low open notes in to make big low booms and shit. sounds kinda neat i guess.

>>70428397
i think it sounds nice mate.

>>70427916
I remember liking one song from this hobo, can't remember what it was though

>>70428865
Thanks! My music theory isn't great but they're basically bar chords.

D, A#/D, F, C on low E with thumb over top

>>70428869
less gain/10

>>70429061
i don't want tone critique, just the music

>>70429195
this would be a decent foundation for a song of some sort

[spoiler]if it didn't have so much gain[/spoiler]

tfw want to play jazz but suck at bar chords

any good techniques for making first finger not a floppy useless cunt?

Best hollowbody/semi-hollow guitar for jazzy fusion stuff? (John Scofield etc)

>>70429649
I kept my first finger as totally straight as possible and kept my thumb behind the neck when i did a lot of bar chords.

>>70429649
It's mostly about hand strength. Just keep practicing, you'll get there.

>>70429752
What budget?

Epi Broadway might be up your street at ~$500. Dots are solid hollow bodies for much cheaper too. Don't know much about Ibanez Artcores semi-hollows but they're worth a look if you can spend a bit more.

What's the trick with Epiphone Casinos?

Supposedly industry standard guitars with no Gibson upgrade yet they sell for only $550.

>>70430019

>>70429880
I don't really have a budget as I'm just speculating about the future but maybe ~$1200 AUD. So around 900 USD

>>70429930
Ibanez AS93 looks pretty good

>>70429913
From the laffed to the laffer, the /gg/ dream.

How do I get good at guitar without ever practicing??

>>70430019
They're an anomaly, especially if you buy a Peerless made model. I would put them up against any expensive thinline hollowbody guitar. Tuners are a bit cheap feeling I guess, but that's the only problem I can think of, they're not bad at all.

Mentally memorize the fretboard and go through scales in your head, build arpeggios in your head, just do everything except for physical playing in your head

how do i play metal to get a emo/scene gf...
i have an ibanez guitar with 24 frets if that matters.. electric blue finish

Kinda sounds like something that would be on a Frusciante solo album. That's not a bad thing though.

>>70430446
Cheers for taking the time to listen. I do like Frusciante a lot so I guess its only natural the influence would come out. Do you think its on the right track of being a riff that can be developed into a song?

>>70430340
It happens after you play for a while. You can just improvise without thinking about scales and things too hard

>>70430340
no

>>70430478
Much easier to write riffs over a chord progression. ie. build the groundwork of your songs first.

>>70428120
Holy shit this sounds rad can anyone explain how to do this more?

Does anyone have a list of maybe beginner to medium difficulty solos? The Hardest solo i've learned is probably knocking on heaven's door from Guns N' Roses which isn't even that advanced but I want something tougher to chew on but within reason

Someone last thread posted this video which shows how to do it, but I originally got the idea from a Ben Levin video awhile ago, couldn't find it again though.

As for the percussive whammy bar, just loosely whack the strings with it and let it bounce sometimes.

you could totally play chords but incorporate your little twiddely bits as well.
Frappuccino does this a lot(as you probably know)

this means that you could get them melodic notes but also have the base chords there which means you can play it by yourself instead of having to record 2 different tracks consisting of chords and riffs.

>>70422897
You just need to set goals on what you want to achieve and do drills to improve your technique, identify what you want to learn and learn it. And if you're going to learn songs then learn all of it and not just snippets of it, memorizing songs is sometimes harder than actually playing them.

It took me years of playing until I actually realized what I wanted to play, before that I was just noodling around, and when I started doing drills every day I got over the plateau I was stuck on almost immediately.

>>70426468
Sounds like your intonation is fucked on the fifth fret of the B string assuming you're doing the makeshift tuning by ear method.

>>70434930
yeah you need an amp.

the pickup will "pickup" the vibrations and oscillations from the string and transfer it through the cable, first to the looper pedal then onward to the amp.

Not exactly ON the mesa, just two heads on top of each other. I highly recommend both amps, the TA-15 is great if you need some versatility and low wattage options with the ability to get fucking loud, and the Bassbreaker 7W is fantastic.

the con is that both amps have no effects loop or reverb, but I run everything into the front of my amps anyways, leave it JUST barely on the verge of break up and let pedals shine through.

one of my favs, but not also not 100% fingerstyle. Has some great passages that are fun.

another great calming one.

I want to switch the pickups in mine. The only bad thing about these new MIM's is those.

>>70435534
Probably a tele unless you get a JAzzmaster with HH configuration.

>>70435560
yeah they are a little shotty, what kind of music do you play?

>>70435546
thank you weebfriend

>>70435534
Tele. Thinline especially.

how good/bad is the squier vintage modified mustang?

Is it good for genres like grunge and punk?

Old school thrash/black and minimalist clean improv stuff.

No pedals or effects. I run straight into a tube amp and use the drive on that. I need pickups that won't buzz so loud on the bridge position.

>>70435702
I'm pretty sure it would work very good for both grunge and punk

>>70435744
I wish I had the chance to play it before I bought it.

I just don't want it to fall apart or just sound real bad.

does one generally want higher or lower output pups for playing slide guitar?

>>70435381
Oh man, the angle and the black tolex on my dim screen made the TA controls look like they were top mounted on the fender.

>>70435534

Undoubtedly Tele. Jazzmasters are mememachines. Mustangs are for ladyboys.

Adjust your tremolo. If you don't know how to do that and don't want to pay someone to do it (or learn it) use the lighter gauge strings again.

First, we have the feisty little, dual humbucker, Bullet Mustang. With a ‘C’ shaped neck with a rosewood fretboard, medium jumbo frets, and a six, saddle hardtail bridge. A little guitar with a big, big sound! Comes in Imperial Blue, or Black FOR ONLY $149.99!
Part of the Affinity Series comes a dual humbucker Jazzmaster. Stripped back to a master volume and tone, with a simple 3-way selector switch and a six, saddle hard tail bridge, this fat sounding offset keeps it uncomplicated to find your tone. Choose between Arctic White and Black. $199.
There are two models of Deluxe Jazzmaster. One with a stop tail bridge and one with a standard Jazzmaster tremolo. Both come in Candy Apple Red with gold anodized aluminum pickguards, authentic sounding Jazzmaster single coils, and a comfortable, satin finished, maple neck. Probably the most affordable way to get into that classic sound. $399.99.
Lastly is a glorious Vintage Modified Baritone Jazzmaster. Loaded with a pair of JM-101 single coils, a fixed top loader bridge, it comes in all black with matching headstock – it’s sure to turn heads with both it’s tone and looks. $449.99.

>>70436832
you i already did the bridge but its still high, im scared im gonna get a curved neck

>>70436880
My advice still stands, learn how to do a setup on your guitar, pay someone to do it or use the lighter gauge strings again.

>>70436793
All you have to do is unscrew the backplate and tighten the screws that the springs are connected to that pull on the bridge.

Jazzmaster - Rock but other guitars do it better desu

Telecaster - Country, rock

Mustang - only should be used by guitarists with dwarf hands

how do i chose an amp?

is it a bad idea to try and learn on an electric guitar without an amp? i know justinguitar says its fine but what do you think? it seems like it might screw with your tone/make it easier to accept sloppy chord finger position or something

i guess i should just buy one anyway

It's okay for memorizing scales etc, but for actually practicing I'd always use an amp to really get the feeling down. Plus, playing clean on an amp without any buzzing etc is fucking hard, you need to practice that.

There's this national brand's all-tube head that has a Bright/Deep switch, when it's turned to Deep, the EQ is turned off and it acts like the Gain channel.

Why the fuck would they design the amp so that the EQ is turned off in one of the channels? Seems fishy to me. Really makes me think...

I was in this exact situation 2 weeks ago and did a lot of googling about this

THE standard is The Real Book
There used to be an illegal version of this (artists didn't get money from the sales) but the sixth version is completely legal

many people complain about songs not being in the sixth edition anymore but it's pretty much the standard nowadays

so I recommend buying the 6th edition of the real book to study (easier to read, less mistakes) and take it to jams and download the 5th (the last illegal) edition to print out any songs that are missing

you can download vol 1, 2 and 3 of the 5th edition here http://www.swiss-jazz.ch/partitions-real-book.htm
