/GG/ - Guitar and Bass - jazzmaster edition

>>71666214
First for all guitar players are closet traps

So I'm pretty new at guitar. I bought an Epiphone for something like $200. I see people shitting on Epiphone pretty often. Is there anything really wrong with Epiphone guitars?

>>71666483
you get what you pay for, is all
/gg/ ends up being a very vocal minority of either gear elitists or poorfags and a majority of people who just don't give a shit

>>71666483
From what I hear, it wont sound like a gibson but that isn't necessarily bad.

Posted this in the previous thread but doing it again here
So I'm in the market for a new guitar around the 300-400$ mark, narrowed it down to 2 choices, an Ibanez Gio and a Jackson Dinky, both have 24 frets and a whammy bar which are the main things I was looking for, but I can't decide between them, the Ibanez has a really cool finish but the more I look at it the more it gives off an emo vibe and I feel like I'll get sick of it quite soon and I've also heard that Ibanez guitars are of pretty shit quality, especially the gio range but don't know if that's a meme or not, it also has an H/S/H pickup set up but I genuinely wonder how much I'll use the single coil
My gut tells me to go with the Jackson but I really like the color scheme of the Ibanez
set me straight boys

epiphone is fine. people even play epiphone who aren't beginner and still make them sound good

this place is fun to shoot the shit but realize most of this board are talentless gearfags. focus on playing and playing what you like, not 600 pedals and a $4000 stack that never leaves your room

>>71666636
Jackson. Gios are shit.

>>71666636
300$ for a gio? What country so you live in, for that price I would say get an rg350dx. Avoid the low end Jackson's they are bad, gios aren't really good either.

>>71666848
Dis. Also 350s are good modding platforms for later stages of playing. Try getting a 350m, same shit but maple fretboard

>>71666636

I've been playing on a dinky for about 10 years now with a H/S/S configuration. It's a solid guitar. Love it to bits. Can't really see myself playing anything else. You can even swap out the bridge for an original floyd rose if you want to. (Don't know if that applies to other guitars)

they sound great but they're one trick ponies in my book

>>71666935
people say theyre not very durable and fall apart on the road, need constant attention from a guitar tech, etc

>>71666987
so did you get the blue one or what?

>>71667015
do you think a normal guitar tech in a small town can take care of that?

>>71666935

Theyre stupid good, but a cunt to get set up perfectly. Theyre also extremely thin. Like "fug im gonna break this bitch" thin. Iirc new ones dont have bubinga boards anymore so thats lame.

>>71667060

Depends. They have toothpick thin necks and dual trussrods.

>>71666987
Pretty sure it was a DIY refinish, sonic grey is a new color for 2017

>>71667060
lol considering how most guitar techs i know whine when i ask them to set up a tremolo idk about that

ive built a guitar over the past 6 months or so. It came out better than i could have imagined with almost no prior woodworking experience.

Tools were minimal and the only thing i could not do myself was plane the wood to correct thickness. I highly reccomend anyone that is interested to build their own guitar, it was extremely rewarding and gave me a whole new respect for guitar makers and woodworkers.

>>71667350
I held a jazzmaster once
I had the immediate uncontrollable urge to stuff my holes with cock so I dropped it and ran

What guitar is Doug Martsch using?

https://youtu.be/gnKqWnYmp3I

these threads are stupid
every time i post something i get accused of being a "roman" whatever the fuck that means

>>71667387
>duo-sonic
Is this due to Fender shoving greasy girls into every advertisement for them when they just released the new duo-sonics and mustangs?

>>71667545
very clever roman, but I won't fall for your tricks this time

oioi lads.
recently getting into lead playing after being stuck in a rut of just jamming what i already know.

Recommend me some classic rock/blues solos to learn please.

As a gauge of where i'm at I've just learned hotel California solo

What are some artists you can play pretty much everything from?

What's the first thing when you play when you play a new guitar?

>>71667490
Anyone?

>>71667792

this may be hard for you to understand but many of us play original material. you'll grow out of wanting to play metallica songs eventually, kid.

>>71666929
You could just straight up buy one with the finish you like instead of spending money refinishing a MIM.

>>71667792
I can play every song from In Flame's first three albums. I usually play dialogue with the stars and the the Jester Race solo when trying out guitars

>>71667400
Aesthetically, I'm not down, but it does look pretty comfy

>>71667792
I know pretty much every acoustic song by john mayer because most of them are fun to play
looking to get into tommy emmanuel next

>>71667835
But it was only $300

>>71667863
>I know pretty much every acoustic song by john mayer
kill yourself

>>71667891
babby can't play neon?

I still don't like his music but he has interesting technique

>>71666848
Slovenia, the Gio is supposedly some premium ordeal so I assume it's of slightly better quality than the rest of the Gio pack, it's actually 370 euros (about $400) but was thinking of shipping one from germany as it would be about 50 euros cheaper, even with shipping
the Jackson isn't really low end, the cheapest Dinkies go for 120 euros so I would say this one is coming into the mid range
>>71666827
>>71666917
the more I think about it, the moe it seems like the Jackson is the more sensible choice, the initial wow factor of the Gio's paint scheme is slowly wearing off and actually seems a bit vulgar now, the Jackson is definitely the more sober choice

>>71666929
Japanese? Looks like an Japanese STD strat. If so, it's a puzzle of basswood underneath, would not look good with a clear finish.

>>71668699
I just wanted to know, I don't even own an MIA.

>>71668711
It's MIM STD.

I have a few days off next week, please gimme some fun fingerstyle songs to learn /gg/

>>71668749
in that case it could be alder, so there's a chance it might look decent.

>>71668810
Alright, should I do it myself? I've never tried to refinish a guitar myself.

cool another kid gets turned away from guitar playing because he's told the pentatonic scale is for plebs, thanks /gg/

So I was playing post rock, indie rock, funk and post punk for years
Bought a twin reverb, pedals and a nice telecaster

Now I'm playing dark hardcore punk again
bought a bareknuckle pickup for my gibson les studio
a sharp tuning and shit
What's a good 150 watt head at a lower price?

Where are the pickups from? My partscaster is like that too with the body from Indonesia (first "real" guitar) I now have it tuned to F# for Johnny Marr riffs

>>71668859
Thats not the implication.
The reality is that all scales and modes eventually get blended into your technique. So you dont just play "pentatonic" exclusively, you'll play everything without making the distinction anymore.

>>71668831
sunburst are a little more complicated than a regular refinish in a solid color, but since its an MIM go for it, not much to lose

How should I go about cleaning this?

I hope this isn't a dumb question, but what should I take into consideration with a guitar if I'm thinking of making dreampopish/shoegaze music? Or is most of the sound determined by pedals and amps?

>>71669346
Single coils and an easy to use trem. Humbuckers can work but the sound you get from them isn't ideal. Shoegaze is more Amp and effects anyways

>>71669310
bleach mixed with some ammonia should do the trick

>>71667792

Everything King Krule released. I love the bright melodies he writes.

I usually play Out Getting Ribs by King Krule or Weird Fishes by Radiohead for single coil testing and Sometimes by MBV for humbuckers.

For a beginner Epiphone is completely fine. Once you git gud, you'll try out other guitars and find out what you really like.

With more expensive shit, it's about the quality of the build. How comfortable it is to play. You're not having to fight the guitar. It's not so much sound.

Your tone is like 90% whatever your amp and cab combo is. Then pick ups, then strings. If you're playing through a micro cube, you're going to sound mediocre. If you're playing through a Dual Rec, just about any humbucker guitar will do.

>>71673637
I'm fairly socially retarded but I'll try, thanks for the idea.

>>71673566

IMO the rickenbacker bass is one of the best-looking instruments on the planet, but their guitars don't look nice to me.

No idea about the actual quality though

I tell you what you fuckin do mate, just buy online. I've never bought from a guitar store, actually I've never even gone in anywhere and picked up a guitar to try out. They're shit around here.

I've always bought online after doing me research. I know what I like. Im not into the fuckin fender shit, looks like a fuckin plastic childs fuckin play thing to me. Got to have something heavy and well put together.

>>71673637
Ausfag here. Yeah expect to pay out the fuckin arse for that shit. This cunt in town wanted $1400 to order in the new 1955 custom epiphone. Bullshit. I can get it online $999. But Imnot paying that for some fuckin shithouse epiphone anyway. Fuck him and his seppo cunt wife.

That orange one is out of the fucking question. Fuck floyd roses to begin with, that is a Jackson branded special, one of the fucking worse pieces of shit around. fucking floyd rose can just go and fuck off and die in a fucking hole, the cunt.

Personally I wouldn't get any Fender with humbuckers, it kind of defeats the purpose of buying a Fender. If you're going humbuckers I would go with a nice hollowbody like an Epiphone Sheraton or Hagstrom Viking or Gretsch Streamliner.

>>71674806

He says its okay and I do stuff around the house you know. Mom said last year that if I was going to act like a child, I'd be treated like one. I don't go out or do adult stuff anyway so it didnt really make much of a difference. She cut my meat up for me at dinner, which I didn't complain about one bit, I liked it. I thik they realized that didn't do anything.

I just read and played guitar most of the time. Apart from having to go to bed early it was great.

Hope you realize this isn't about income or social status. It's about a guy who has no job, is anti-job, and has very materialistic desires for more stuff and acquiring more stuff. Don't care if you're a minimalist musician without much equipment.

Don't confuse my point. It is as I presented it, and no more. You're EuroMickyDees job is not my concern.

Yes. Toys are a definition of leisure. It's a question of priority. Pay yourself, and then collect the benefits later. Do you get some toy now, or invest it, wait, and get the same toy and financial security later? I had two cars I used for racing. Couldn't pay my rent. I decided to sell one, and unwind the other (from a lease). I gave up on one form of racing, bought a cheap racer for the other form, and invested the limited proceeds from my other car sales. Now I've got more guitars than I know what to do with, and no reason not to buy more.

Not sure what a "$401k" house is, other than a house that you don't own and don't really understand what is being said.

>Really makes your weasel swizzle huh ?
