reminder it's not what your idols prefer it's what you prefer

and you prefer a fender stratocaster

everything else is just ricer shit, a strat can do everything

Soneone offered me a peavey windsor 100 and fuzzface for my fender precision bass

Im going for big mids and riffs with a qotsa sound. Is this a good option? Probably gonna sell the pedal

I hate strats. I hate their shape, I hate how cheap they feel, I hate their necks, I hate their aesthetics.
I will never own one and will continue to play what I like.

Please stop projecting your insecurities on to the rest of us and just play what you like.

1. Kiko Lourerio taught me to look for outside influences to make your playing more interesting.
2. Marty Friedman taught me to get creative with bends and vibrato.
3. Paul Gilbert basically taught me how to pick play lead. I spent years of my life watching his lessons.
4. Buckethead taught me to try and create beautiful and emotional clean melodies.
5. Dave Mustaine taught me to play fast and technical and to try to make more interesting songs. Instead of just chug chug chug.

Not a fan of Kiko and Dave hasn't played his own guitar tracks in years due

I like Chapman way more than the Captain.

Captain is annoying as fuck and absolutely won't tolerate anyone having a different opinion than his. His reviews are pretty shitty because of how narrow minded his thinking is.

Rob is at least very open to all kinds of guitars, amps and music.

>>70807805
Yeah not for his tapping moron. Everyone knows how simple that is. If I was about an edgelord tapper I'd mention EVH

So basically, unless you know all the notes on the fretboard and where they are you can never really learn theory, right?
Like, you can memorize scales but all you're doing is memorizing shapes and not the meaning behind them?

So what's the best and most effective way to memorize all the notes?

>>70807697
>>70807704
>>70807723

[12TH FRET BENDING INTENSIFIES]

>>70807793
I can't take Rob's opinion without a lot of salt since he has his own company. And both of them are deeply incentivized to sell you whatever chinkplank is being pushed on the market atm.

>>70807861
>Like, you can memorize scales but all you're doing is memorizing shapes and not the meaning behind them?
at last, someone sees the truth.
you can cheat a bit and "learn" the fretboard relatively. Like the seventh fret second string is the fifth from the string it's tuned to, so if it's tuned to A then it's an E, and so on.
You can still learn theory though, the notation's the same as long as you don't switch clef, regardless of the instrument and tuning.

>>70807901
I've been weary of most Youtube guys reviewing gear since the CabClone reviews.

That video where they had the Mese Boogie dude with them to review it was uncomfortable.

>>70807933
What's the deal with CabClone?

>>70807901
I was watching some of their videos where the Captain and some other guy were going to all the company exhibits at the lastest NAMM. Basically all it was was Lee saying "I don't like that finish, so I won't talk about this guitar" and "this doesn't look like something I'd play so I'm not going to show it" and then the other guy would be like "I really like this finish or this thing they've done, it's really innovative and blah blah blah" and Lee just goes "well I don't" and they move on.

I had to stop watching after a while because it started getting so old to hear.

Lee likes what he likes and won't tolerate anyone liking something else, unless it's Rob because he knows the only reason people watch their shit is because of Rob.

>>70807918
I found out very early on that theory is about knowing the notes and how they connect, with the intervals and everything.
People would say "learn this scale" but that does nothing but teach you a shape, you need to know the scale formula of the scale and intervals of it to really know how to use it.

That's why I want to learn the notes more than anything.

>>70807861
Looking down on guitar EADGBE 5th fret is the same as the next string (5fret E is the same note as the A string), 7th fret is the same note as previous string (7th fret A string is E string) , also octaves on EADG strings

THIS IS JUST HOW I LEARNED. STOP HATTING, HATTERS

>>70807948
basically mesa made a really bad and overpriced DI and attacked people who criticized it.
SpectreSoundStudio (fat bass cunt) has a video calling it out, can't remember the exact details.

>>70807964
I only tried to watch the Ibanez booth and I didn't even bother, it was just an old cunt that goes "oh wow thin neck very speed". Absolutely unbearable.

>>70807861
all you really need to know is the names of the notes on the two lowest (thickest) strings and memorize the 5 shapes of the scale

the rest would be nice to know but ultimately is useless pretty much

>>70807948
It's a product released by Mesa Boogie that's supposed to emulate a cabinet. It sounded like shit but most of the Youtube gear guys gave it good reviews.

Chappers and the Captian made a video where they didn't say it was bad but if you read between the lines, you could tell that they knew it was shit.

They deleted the original video and uploaded another version where someone from Mesa had come to 'explain' the Cabclone (read: be there to make sure they didn't shit on it in the video, which they had to make so Andertons could maintain a good relationship with Mesa). It was still shit in the second video and they had to act like it wasn't, so the video has a rather uncomfortable vibe.

It's pretty funny to watch, in hindsight: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cCskTx1vYKU

Notes refrence and intervals is probably the easiest way to learn.

>>70807995
>you need to know the scale formula of the scale and intervals of it to really know how to use it
No you dont
You need to know the shapes and how to transpose them, and find out what key you're in and then just come up with cool licks within the shapes

Sweetwater

Sometimes you'll find stuff on zzounds that have too good to be true prices. Bought sone cables from them once and they were as advertised

Reverb for used

Craigslist will have best deals

>>70812563

>>70812576

you could drop 2500 and buy the one i want for 500

you have a 130 dollar amp

Some of you are hung up on buying guitars for thousands of dollars and shit....I mean why not just get a cheap decent guitar and actually improve your skill instead.

Literally nobody will tell the difference in sound between a squier strat and a $5k custom shop strat.

>>70814274
Because you suck at guitar

>>70814274

>>70813592
Dont trust MN craigslist. There's a wolf among us

Is that how you validate yourself in being a poorfag? You dont need good gear to sound good cause youre good at your instrument? It might come as a surprise to you, but no one does.

>>70814362
>I've been playing for 12 years

>>70814362
No, you have to play on the same entry level equipment that everyone else here does. They got mad at me one time for posting a picture of my gibson. Then they got madder when i told them i owned a house and a car that costs $42000. Topkek, i didnt get pissy about people that had the good stuff back when I was in highschool.

>>70814362
i've been strumming to knocking on heaven's door for 15 years am i good yet?

also why buy a 5k guitar when you can make your own for less?

How do I get into country guitar lead style playing? Who are some artists to listen to? I like the melodic style versus blues style playing.

Nigga, a lot of times you get what you pay for.
If you want the shape you want in the color and finish with the pickups and hardware you want, you're going to need to spend money for it.
Just because you can't afford shit and you're upset about it doesn't mean others who can afford it shouldn't get what they really want

I love my Squiers. Can play without treating them like they are some antique vase. I'm no Hendrix but makes me feel good when I come up with a progression or nice melody.

This thread reminds me of this old screencap of an /r9k/ thread where this guy was talking about how he cheated on his girlfriend and then felt bad about it and wanted to tell her. All the responses were from people crying about how he wasnt being sensitive to the fact that most people there were virgins and he was complaining about having sex with 2 different girls. They said it was really hurtful to them.

dont need a super loud gig amp or anything, just something thats a little warmer and thicker than my practice amp, and receives pedals better.

From exeperience the blues jr tends to be more brightnand twangy than warm. Turning the bass up makes it boomy and unpleasant. I have the nos twees, not that it makes a difference.

i mean tubes in general sounding warmer than a digital amp
