All i had was just repeating the 0-2 and 3-0 until the end of time

is epiphone actually good, or are they just meme guitars? im looking at one of their les pauls in the $400 range and their G400.

>>70522425

Their mid range guitars are great (sheraton II, Casino, Les Paul pro etc.)buy used and for $400 you can probably get a great guitar.

>>70522595
In the lower end I would rather have an epiphone desu. I don't like Gibson's low end guitars, they feel like they're half finished with the "faded" finishes. You might not have a problem with that though so you could check out the lower end Gibsons, they generally have slightly nicer pickups but that's about it.

If you want a real nice guitar look for a Japanese Epiphone with the Gibson headstock, they'll set you back about $700 but these are imo just as good if not better than higher end Gibsons.

Finally sold the rest of my gear and have downsized to the absolute bare minimal I want. No more Ibanez MEHTUL guitars and bass. No more 100 pound bass rig. No more ridiculous 4x12" cabinet.

Lol.... well...

I'm using two different bluetooth speakers. The blue one's are "50 watt" (Chinese so probably uses a car audio 12watt amp) the little "subs" handle bass decently for a living room.... Drop C# and lower, it sucks ass. Excellent for guitar though, lots of volume headroom.

Guitar -> 1/4" cable -> Multi-Effect pedal -> 1/4" to Stereo RCA (RED/WHITE) females -> RCA red/white males to the inputs. It's super quiet with the mono instrument cable input, so I have it split to stereo.

Then an Anker bluetooth speaker. The $35 Amazon one.

Guitar -> 1/4" - 1/8" adapter -> 1/8" aux cable -> Anker box

Maxed volume is a bit louder than an acoustic. I'm iffy about using the pedal, I don't want to blow the speakers. Crystal clear highs, good mids, but muddy lows, of course. Guitar only of course. It has like, 1.5" speakers.

it gets the job done. I've lost my skillz and don't have a lot of time to play.

>>70523400
>it gets the job done. I've lost my skillz and don't have a lot of time to play.

Well when I was 19-22, I played in two different bands. One played at the Whiskey A Go Go in hollywood. The other, backyard shows, and the Queen Mary in Long Beach. We grew up, got jobs, and the hobby slowly drifted away for some of us. Cabinets take up too much space, but I don;t jam with anyone. No need for the volume.

Plonker, I was just like you, back in 2008- ~2011. An "up and coming band" We would play at bars in out downtown area. Sold a couple shirts, got tons of hits on Myspace, eventually asked to play on the Hollywood strip.

Sadly rock is dying out. It's a hobby. I kept it that way. I have some loser friends still trying to "make it big"

I know lots of "pros" that regularly still play small venues, there's no shame in not playing arenas. If my wife told me I had to get rid of my amps/cabinets, I would go off on the bitch ,they really don't take up "that" much space.

I'm probably around your age (will be 30 this year) and I'm seeing a lot of guys letting their wives cuck them into giving up their dreams. It's a sad thing to see. Like I said, even retards have musical careers these days. There's no reason to ever stop playing to your maximum potential.

B 3(3) B 2(1)
G 4(4) To G 3(4)
D x D x
A x A x
E 2(2) E 2(2)

*Parenthesis are fingers assigned to the notes.

This prominently featured in Rossiniana No 1 and it switches between the two multiple times in one measure.
The first finger should barre the first two strings the whole time to preempt when the second chord necessitates it.

That's the original color before sanding back isn't it? If I were you I would sand back a little more so only the black grain is visible and use a stain that's slightly lighter. That's how Martin,Gibson etc do it

Otherwise you're just wasting time sanding it back desu. Something like this, but you could do a darker shade of brown/grey if you want that dark color.

>>70523866
>Sell all that shit and go digital.

thats what plebs say all the time.

Do you use that stuff for shows? Honestly, going digital made my life easier. Yeah it sounds cold and stale. But add some fuzz at the end, a little feedback from single coils, and my pleb ears don't hear a significant difference.

modern country is mostly numales singing about girls, trucks and beer. ignore that, its not real country.

go back to merle haggard, willie nelson, hank williams, dwight yoakam, red simpson, merle haggard, buck owens, etc

100% serious, I think the guitar work is good in this county song. The intro, the bass work, the guitar solo. Honest.

dominant chords, eh? major or minor?

Can I play a dominant chord were a minor or major would be played?

>>70530563
You can think of it as a modal progression in G Lydian, or simply B Minor.

In G Lydian, D would be a Maj7 but since it's the V chord you can susbtitute a Dominant, and what would be the ii chord in G Major becomes a II7.

That's the way I see it, anyway. It sounds good resolving to Bm, so maybe just think of it as key of B minor.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.

>>70532618
>i think the tone may be making it sound like i was just playing power chords when really i wasn't.

No it literally sounds bad. I'm not talking about the actual playing. Sort out your knobs it'll sound better.

>>70532618
Slow down, practice muting and rhythm and learn to dial in a less muddy tone.

>>70532618
That's sloppy and the tone is horrible.
Also counterpoint my ass, that's just a standard metal riff.

>>70532618
A guitar is capable of couterpoint, but what you're doing is not.

I don't know much about distortion so I won't talk much about the tone but the sound is plain dirty, and it's probably not purely because of effects, you should try playing it clean until it sounds perfect before adding distortion.

>>70532719
Anything, but primary is usually Indie, Rock, and most things that involve a guitar.
