Not many bands have literally destroyed their equipment while still creating melody

>>71001926
Melody isnt the word youre looking for

>>71001939
Yes it is

>>71001950
No it isn't.

I have a little question about theory. I'm following this guy's guide and he started talking about intervals: https://www.studybass.com/lessons/intervals/basic-intervals/

When he names all those intervals, he is referring to the intervals on the ionian mode, right? I mean, the second, third, etc interval are not at the same distance, for example, in a dorian mode although the key is the same. A minor third would equal a major second in the dorian mode as far as I can understand.

Or am I mixing my shit?

>>71002034
Yes it is

>>71002055
No it isn't.

>>71001950
So the band as a whole create a single note line? That's what a melody is. You're looking more for the word cossonance, sounds that are pleasing together. This is a better example of when cacophony can be pleasing.

>>71002063
Yes it is

All the Paul posting has gotten me interested in PRS guitars and I've actually fallen in love with them. I wan't to get a Custom 24 as my next guitar.

Was this perhaps Paul himself posting all these memes to get people looking at his guitars?
Paul, are you reading this?

what's the guitar in the dream spot?

>>71003748
it absolutely sucks. It's already taken most of the mobility from my pinkies, but the worst part is just seeing all the progress of my 10+ years of playing just crumble before me. half the chords and scales i've relied on so heavily are almost impossible because of it, so now i'm stuck practically having to re-learn from scratch how to play around it.

I've always used a pick and i still have pretty good control with my right hand when using one, but my doctors tell me that learning and practicing to play with my fingers can really help.

>>71001713
FUCK YOU OKAY?! IM POOR GOD DAMMIT UGHHHHHHHHHHH

Sorry, I meant how you were going about working on tunes (chord-melody, single note, improvising over changes, etc.)

I usually spend more time coming up with chord-melody arrangements than anything else when I open up a jazz book, just seeing what you're into

>>71004038
Lute is better in every way.

>>71004242
>lutefags

>>71004226
Lately I've just been learning the head and changes separately on guitar, and then learn the head on tuba. This way I'm ready to play group gigs at jazz clubs on either, as I can always improv a good bass line on tuba when needed.

>>71004280
Where were you when you realized the lute is superior to the guitar in every way?

>>71001899
They're pretty cool a lot of their B-Sides have a harder grittier sound than the more successful power pop shit they play. I don't understand how you couldn't ever like them they have songs that just about anyone can get into. Why don't you like Nirvana anon?

>>71002251
Playing songs is the best thing to do. It's really important to balance out the different things you do with an instrument you know? If anything you're going to level up and have new things to include in your play style!

Just wanted to post my video of me playing this jam. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OtXbV1ZGmOQ

I've been listening to Jazzkamikaze, Impact Fuze, ANimals as LEaders, and lots of jazz. Stuff like tony williams, john mclaughlin, john coltrane. CHris Dave and THe Drumheads.

>>71004723
is this supposed to be a joke

>>71005086
In a way, yes. This Jesse dude makes great impersonation material for shitposters

Are any of you faggots actually solid lead guitar players?

Most of these threads tend to be full of low testosterone, 3-chord strumming alterna-cucks.

That may impress non musicians for a while, but any time someone with good legato or alternate picking shows up, you will be made invisible by comparison.

The only people who say that speed doesn't matter are those who cannot play fast. Fact.

>>71006731
Also: learn how to maintain your guitar without taking it to a repair man

And learn at least basic electronics, learn to solder, learn how pickups and pots and switches work. If you're feeling ambitious, learn how tubes andtransistors and chokes and transformers work and fix your amp yourself when it stops working.And buy a multimeter, they cost about the same as a tuner and save you a lot of hassle.

>>71006731
Sooo... slide and bend and use lots of vibrato?

locking trem? Get a guitar with a true Floyd Rose, do NOT, I repeat, do NOT get a guitar with a knock off Floyd Rose, such as the Ibanez Edge trems. They are total, complete shit, and you'll go grey over trying to change the strings and tune the fucking thing.

I've always thought musicians were more impressed with how creative you can get with your fingers on guitar (slap, slide vibratos, double hand harmonic taps, unorthodox chord progressions) rather than just speed.

I've seen my fair share of rekt shredders getting owned by classical and jazz guitarists when improvising together, speed really doesn't matter

>>71007029

So are MG69's known for going out of tune if you even think about using the tremolo arm or did I fuck up stringing my guitar?

could they fucking not?

>>71007998
No, I'm saying it's taken as a prerequisite to playing guitar that you like Hendrix. I don't like his music, it bores me. And there's plenty of more skilful and creative guitarists around. But everyone still happily chokes on Hendrix's cock because it's expected of them.

Not for me it isn't. After buying a neck through guitar with the strap button behind the neck joint I've been playing consistently better so why not. I do have a weird twisted left wrist which forces me to hold the neck a bit higher and more vertical than usual.

I always laugh when I see some dumb shit buy a cheap guitar and immediately start "upgrading" it. They usually start by asking for replacement pickup suggestions. It's like why, you dumb fuck? Why did you buy a guitar you didn't think sounded good to begin with? I'll tell you why: because you don't know what the fuck you're doing and you have no clue what the fuck you're after. You bought some retarded piece of shit because of how it looked in a picture on the internet and then when you got it home and actually played it ..it sounded and played like straight up ass. So you started "upgrading" it instead of admitting to yourself that you don't know shit and made a mistake, or that the guitars construction was so shitty that you didn't have any other choice but to "upgrade" it to make it a playable instrument. Here's the thing though: you could have just saved all the time and money you sank/wasted into "upgrading" a piece of shit and just bought a decent guitar to begin with. You bedroom warriors are a hilarious lot, watching you flail about trying to polish turds into diamonds. If a diamond is what you wanted why didn't you just go out and buy a diamond to begin with?

Because you're fucking stupid, that's why.

>>71011330
what's the budget?

I love me TC Electronic's Hall of Fame, I think the nano version might do you some good and the Holy Grail Nano is a good second choice

when in doubt go with Boss, they got the RV-5 and Biyang Rv-10 3-mode Stereo Reverb is the most cost effective choice

high end choices would be found in this list

good luck finding your right sound, anon

is it really practising if i just mess around on the guitar without really playing anything
like go over some scales and improvise for 30 seconds at a time..
play the same chord patterns..
fuck around with harmonics..

what makes guitar practice worthwhile

>>71011450
You're not really practicing, you're noodling.

Break out the metronome and work on something.

Bump. I would really like to know as I'm going to buy a new guitar. Preferably something with p90s

recommend me a 4string passive bass under 800 bucks

I need a bass for recording. Looking into Schecters and MIM Fenders or Squiers.

What's a good general use bass? Should basically be the most universal. Heard a lot about Fender P and J and such basses. Is the Squier Troy Sanders signature any good?

Advice! Quick!

>>71011563
Just set your tone to 80s shred/glam and use the guitar not as a synthesizer but as a lead/chord support. Done. Thats how Carpenter Brut do it.

>>71011563
I like putting wah in a stationary position and put overdrive pedal after it. In my experience it doesn't work well on dirty channel and would probably be better with a fuzz, but I don't have the budget expand my collection. Just play with it in general, don't forget about the EQ on amp, it may change the sound more than you think it would.

>>71011644
DUBS DUBS DUBS

also Squire has made decently good basses

>>71011609
I have a Squire Jaguar bass and I dig the versatility of it, can go to a P bass sound to a Jazz because of the pick ups. Speaking of the pick ups, they're not amazing per say because what your paying is what your getting. I happen to find the decent and fair but you can always buy some the other picks to get the tone you want. See it more like a starting point.

the Troy Sanders looks fucking nice tho
