There may be a point there however. Eastwood are much less known brand, maybe there's a lower chance of getting something horribly overpriced.

They have decent value stuff if you're looking for something that's really unusual but don't have the big bucks for custom instruments. Otherwise used gook Gretsches are cheap and great and hard to beat. They're probably the only guitars in their price range with genuinely good pickups.

If you want it, and can afford it then just get it. Especially since you've got one Gretsch already.
Every time I've bought a guitar there was always an alternative that is better on paper in terms of value/quality etc. But it doesn't matter. It just feels good to have something you've wanted.

No need to go for 9, buy an 8 and drop the F# to an E. The scale would make it super floppy for a low C.
Plus it's already hard enough to do large chords using the low register on an 8, can't imagine doing it on a 9.

>>73056167
You pretty much need to have enormous hand and long fingers to play these. I've tried an 8 string and I couldn't chord properly using the extra 2 strings. Mind you, I'm not sure I feel totally comfortable doing bar chords on 6 strings.

b-but I can´t find any decent playing in the internet similar to >>73056048
Like the most I find about double necks are playing only one part, not even trying to mix it.

>>73056245
You need specifically bass and guitar necks? Or any old multi neck rubbish will do?

>>73056198
I can do barre chords with the extra two strings fine (they're fucking useless chords though) and my hands are just a little bigger than the usual, it's just a matter of having proper technique.

>>73056245

>>73057269
What music you play? It comes down to that decision.

Also "sounding better than other"... Ultimately electric guitar sound is based on which kind of pickups the guitar has and the string gauge, nothing else. Someone might say something else but you know, this is the reason why it is called "electric" guitar - it generates an electric signal which is then amplified and processed. You can have a Stratocaster with humbucker pickup and it will sound like BC Rich... etc.

I have Strats and Teles, love them both.

The guitar I play most is one of my Strats, but that's my preference, you need to work out yours.

Play all the guitars you can, and start making your short-list, then go back and play them again until you narrow it down.

If clean is your go, lower output vintage pups will serve you better than hotter, overwound ones.

If you just need them to practice, I'd strongly advice a loop pedal, if you nedd an actual DAW I'd go for Ableton Live, people say it's more appropriate for electronic music, but I never had any problems using it for acoustic music also.

Thing is it all depends. What bass and drums are doing is that they keep the song going. Without them there wouldn't be a band. Ever played with bad bassist and drummer? It's pretty bad and no single flashy guitarist will save that situation.

for the amount of time you'd actually use a flanger, you're better off getting one as part of a multi fx unit

>>73060740
I joined a country and western band once by mistake, the steel player looked like Hitler and he played an Emmons. If you've played slide guitar before and you can adapt to different tunings then they're kinda fun to mess around on for a while but those things cost thousands of dollars. Plus that Hawaiian music generally uses a lap steel, not a pedal steel. Lap steels are way cheaper.

Cheaper still is tuning to C6 and using your normal guitar with a shitload of reverb.

why not use any pedal for chorus/flanger effect

>>73059679
I am legit laughing out loud right now.

>>73061195
not him, but I'm also looking for a flanger, is it really that useless? I really like the sound, it rather unique.

>>73061511
chorus pedals sound like 1980s horseshit

>>73061995
chorus+distortion+reverb sounds huge for leads.

>>73062011
delay+distortion+reverb sounds bigger tho

>>73061913
not either of them but i bought one and everytime i turn it on i turn it back off, no idea how to use it

hows that lick from 6'2" to 6'12"
https://youtu.be/BZ7CZ7nLWZ4?t=6m2s

>>73062045
that's a standard blues turn around

>>73062038
delay+reverb is pretty much still a reverb.
the delay muddies up too much the signal if you play a little fast however

>>73062099
sounds like one
hows it played?

are you sure the spongebob stuff is made with a lap steel?

>>73062181
he's basically doing


Eb7 (xxx15 14 15) - D7 (xxx 14 13 14) - E (xxx13 12 12)

then to

E7(xxx 434) - Eb7 (xxx 323) - D7 (xxx212) - E (xx2100)

there's some pull offs in there but that's the gist of it

Are these things still build?

Do i have to get famous first to get one of these things from a collector?

For those of you that record do you play other instruments as well?

I've been wanting to record some stuff I've written but I don't know how to play the drums nor do I have the time to try teaching myself (or the money to buy a kit, space to play, neighbors/parents that won't complain about the noise) so the biggest obstacle would be writing drum parts in one of those audio programs. What's a good rec? I don't need super fancy high class stuff because it'll be for myself and my friends if they wanna listen but mainly myself I just want a generic rock drum kit kind of thing.

Good thing to do with EZDrummer is to route kick drum, snare, hats, toms etc through individual outs so you can apply individual compression to each drum rather than having everything as a stereo submix.

Got this as a gift a decade ago. Never got around to playing it but want to soon.

The on-board controls fell out through and it's stuck inside the guitar, not sure if that can be fixed.

Can a guitar be safely taken apart and put back together?

>>73064140
iktf
just practice it, works for me

>>73064567
It should be fine, just pull it apart at the neck and the whole thing should come apart with some elbow grease then use elephant glue to put it pack together afterwards, also Ibanez has a little easter egg with a felt pick underneath the bridge so make sure to poke around a bit

>>73064140
Start jacking off with the other hand.

>comparing guitars to types of women

Yeah but what about us gay guys? What guitars should we play, just Teles?

>>73064567
Protip: if you've had the guitar for decades and never bothered to learn then you're not motivated enough. You won't practise, you'll put the guitar back in a corner of the closet and it'll sit there until you get round to putting it on ebay.

Just a bit of me pretending I can play. Top quality room recording, headphone users beware...
http://vocaroo.com/i/s1RFgqrJoZmJ

Cutting to the point - I need to start learning again. I'm embarrassed to say for how many years I've been playing now, and I just stopped progressing somewhere halfway through. I understand very little of music theory, and bad habit of just playing by ear got me into this inescapable corner where I automatically gravitate towards familiar shapes. It's just in finger memory. I've not learned a complete song or even a good chunk in all these years, my fingers just won't listen to me trying to play something not out of my head. Halp /gg/, my favorite hobby is turning into a routine.

I hate Ferraris because they look awesome, it probably means they perform worse than a Taurus. I'd never own one...
