Should I buy a six string fretless for jazz? I feel like the c string would make soloing easier.
Also why do all these expensive custom basses look so fucking ugly?

How to best learn scales for improvising? I feel like I'm confined with box patterns. I'm currently learning the major scale to build off of. What next? My friend recommended learning the patterns of the major scale just to see how they're connected and how the fretboard works. Then he said to go through the Circle of Fifths and chord tones for the major scale. After getting a good understanding of the major scale, he said just use that information and apply it to different modes. Is there anything else I should be doing?
Sidenote, when you people first started to improvise, did you have to think about the notes within the scale at first? And with time, did you just kind of know what sounds good and your fingers just knew what to do?

>>73307707
learn to find intervals, and the visual shapes will come automatically

>>73307707
Learn chugging, that'll open up the fretboard for you.
But there's an additional benefit: The more chugging hours you put into your guitar, the wood opens up more, it's like burning-in your headphones.

>>73307707
Learn your intervals
Any string and fret and a string down is a major fourth interval
3rd String to 2nd is a major third
Learn your modal patterns
Learn your modal circle of fifths as well
Also learn CAGED

>>73307707
try learning scales in one position. everyone always seems to neglect this part. if you don't learn scales in one position you're going to be jumping all over the neck looking for root notes. try this, stay at the 5th fret and figure out how to play all 12 major keys in that position without shifting out of it.

>>73308005
tldr learn interval and modes

Is this worth the price? It'll be my second guitar, upgrading from an LP Special II

For people who have learned instruments through both self-study and under an instructor, what is your experience in the pace of learning? How much quicker were you able to pick up the instrument with a teacher?

>Running a quarter up and down the A string
lol imma noise man

Hey /gg/ I was wondering something about pedals/effects for bass. Would reverb be redundant/pointless with a fuzz pedal? I also plan to get something for boosting the bass. Particularly the Tech 21 SansAmp Bass Driver DI.

>>73311126
Imo reverb performs ubdesireably with bass, robbing it of its balls. I suppose if you were aiming for some ambient applications it could have its place on your board. Otherwise, with bass, stick with amp's clean & overdrive, fuzz, and flange (which can provide chorus and key plane effects both).

>>73310967
>Running a pick up and down the A string
lol imma teenager

>>73311126
How about you try it yourself and form your own opinions instead of asking someone else what you should like?

Do humbuckers on Strats add versatility or should I just stick to an SSS configuration?

>>73311378
Alright. I felt like reverb may have been since it seems like that's the last thing you'd want to put on a bass. Glad I checked.

>>73311404
But that wasn't what I was wondering. I was wondering if a reverb would be pointless with some boost and fuzz already present. Ya silly billy.

>>73311385
Guys, asserting dogmatic pontifications about how instruments should be played with a negative overtone doesn't edify this community. And it makes you appear to be a get-off-my-lawn grandpa. .. and everyone hates baby boomers.

Fender buckers are usually underpowered, you would end up replacing the HB with a Duncan, when you likely would've been tickled with the power a stray bridge pickup has to cut through in a mix

>>73311426
You wont find a better lead tone that cuts like a humbucker. Fat strat is a good compromise, but swap the bridge pup from the stock.

>>73311720
P90 cuts through a mix better than either single cool or humbucker, just invest in a noise gate, lol

>>73311777
Youre objectively wrong, and noise gates are a meme

What's a good resource to really learn "rhythm"? I want to become a groove master.

>>73311872
...then make your case. If I'm "objectively" wrong, then you will be able to reference observable differences that support your arguement. Otherwise, this is just a baseless claim.
For my part, I will no remind us all that a p90 is a humbucker without the him cancelling afforded by reverse winding/polarity. It's a noisy humbucker.

Are lessons worth it? I'm intermediate but I hit a serious plateau and i'm tired of just copying all the famous rock and country songs, I want to delve into some serious blues and jazz.

My Uni offers courses for guitar and i'm on the brink of enrolling, but I don't know if that is better than lessons. I live in Baton Rouge so good teachers aren't exactly high in demand or supply

Looking to get a Les Paul Standard 2016 model from guitar center.

Do you think I can negotiate the price to 1800 out the door? What price should I try to shoot for out the door?

>think a song is in the key of B
>wrong it was in D just using the pentatonic shape in the relatice major

idk if it really works that way but all the chords are in the key of D and this guitar part was in the shape 1 7th position so i thought it was in B which makes it the relative minor of D
so is the song in the key of D still?
ah...

I have a TC Sentry noise gate, it is no meme, tidied up my sound inredibly. Only gripe I have against it is how it cuts number of decays from my delay, and I believe there's likely a way around this.

I posted this before, trying to get a more 'defined' distortion tone seen here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMDGO8RjJEg [Embed]
but the only pedals I have are a Big Muff, a boss sd-1 (yellow mid-boosting overdrive) and a boss blues driver clone. I feel like the muff will be too 'wall-of-sound' and mushy to get the distortion definition so I want to try and make the tone of the Big Muff more piercing with the sd-1 placed before it, bringing the mids back in that the big muff scoops, making it more well heard. Will something like this work/sound defined enough?
I just want to get it to work with what I've got, and I can't turn up because I live in a complex.

Nobody ever talks about chord scales. You can build a chord from each note of the scale. If you can see the scale around each inversion of the chord, you'll have an easier time with modes.

>>73313235
My first impression is that you need a metronome. Practise each chord change individually but, more importantly, strum don't scrape.

For the price, I would want something with a bit more flair. The top looks like multiple planks of wood glued together. It doesn't have to be tiger or quilt but a least give me a proper wood grain. Maybe it looks better in person.

Hey I love bands like black sabbath/sleep/the sword/ect. Really doomy slow and heavy stuff that I really enjoy playing. I'm trying to get that 70's treble boosted stoner metal sound with my Yamaha high gain modeling amp. The amps distortion is pretty decent, but I'm wondering if i would be better treble boosting the amps distortion and turning the gain down, or if I should find an overdrive/treble boost combo pedal like the Friday Club PD-100 or something. Just a bedroom player so I don't need to be spot on, just close enough to play Into the Void, A National Acrobat, Dragonaught, ect.

not being a dick, but get a metronome. You have the fingers, but slow down a little bit and breathe. Don't let the fingers do the thinking and try to build some chops and not run scales up and down.

>>73323685
usually the best way to clean up a distorted sound is to dime the volume knob on the guitar down a bit. also maybe using something similar to a fuzz face might help with the sound. you can crank both the treble and gain and use the volume knob to clean it up

Does any of you have experience with the Protone Dead Horse Overdrive Deluxe, or the Airis Effects Savage Drive? I am torn between these two. I like the sound of my amp's dirty channel(Orange Cr120), but I want it to sound beefier for modern metal sounds. Any input would be greatly appreciated it.

Just make sure you play it before you buy it. Check each string at each fret for any buzzing and any warping in the neck. Generally speaking, you get what you pay for. So if you have a low budget, you'll probably have to settle for something shitty.

There's some decent options there. Agreed on the Yamaha's. Those tend to be pretty good for the price. I learned to play on an Ibanez PF kinda like that one for $125, and it was a pretty solid beginners guitar.

Get a used Ampeg B2-Re.

Amazing solidstate bass amp that sounds just like an SVTpro 3. The design has been around since the 60s but for whatever reason they re-named it a few years ago into the 'portaflex' series to be more in line with the classic 60s lineup.

As a result the B2-re which is the same thing, is cheap used.

Its 450 watts, but it has a -15db pad for playing in a low volume situation and a limiter.

effects loops and etc etc. Its a professional level bass head that's sort of forgotten and great priced and light weight which is good for gigging and thanks to the limiter low volume for home use.

No tubes to break but has that perfect Ampeg sound anyway.

For cabs I run mine through a SVT classic cab but that's expensive. Worth it but you'll be fine with a cheap speaker til you can afford a nice set. Make sure its rated for low hz though. Don't get a guitar speaker. Bass cabs can play guitar but guitar can't play bass.

The 9 band eq is fabulous. I mean it sounds fucking great.

Any cab will do starting out from the GC used listing. Though I would personally try to get a Fender or Ampeg or maybe crate. You could potentially plug the b2re into the pa though and save yourself the trouble.

Customs cost a lot because a Squire bullet is made in about 3 hours by some gooks getting paid $4 an hour. IT has cheap wood glued together covered in paint to hide the shit wood. The metal is mystery metal from china the wiring is watered down copper on overwired refridgerator magents.

The custom shop has a USA man building it by hand. They have to find a piece of wood that's big enough to have a guitar carved out of it. The metal is Iron and chromium so it wont rust. The wire is pure copper so there is less resistance and not a muddy overwound tone. The pots actually do something. The finish is applied over several days instead of 2 hours. etc.

A Mexican guitar is a strat but its cheaper for a reason. Its not the same thing at all even if it looks like it on the surface.

>>73333974
You can get an American made fender that isn't custom shop. What makes that guitar any different from one of those?

how in the FUCK do i get into thumping?
i can get a solid sound if i hit one note at a time and super slow but when i try to speed it up i completely lose it. any tips?

>>73333954
They really do. And I sold my Korean DEAN dave mustaine to get it and havn't looked back since.

I sold my:
Chinese Squire Jazzmaster
Mexican telecaster
Mexican Jag-Stang
Korean Schecter Omen
Korean Dean Dave Mustaine V
Mexican P bass
Mexican Jbass
Epiphone SG probably Chinese not sure.

All the guitars had the same muddy bullshit tone and I soon realized its because all the pickups are just cheap magnets with cheap wire wrapped too much around it going through cheap wire to cheap pots.

The Gibsons I have now are infinitely better. The electronics actually let you hear the guitar instead of muddy distortion covering up the plywood and glue holding together foreign bullshit.

>>73334005
Not too much actually. Merely the fact that the Custom shop will make you the guitar you want. What radius? What neck profile? How hot do you want your pick ups senpai? What body contours? What fret size?

The USA ones are great, but they are production and they are all the same. If you want a '57 soft V medium frets with a 12'' radius with stacked humbucker invaders you can't get that from the production line.

Also, the USA factory will occasionally let lemons slip through, usually with the finish or with the quality of the wood.

Fender makes so many variations on the USA production line though you probably don't need a custom shop. If I wanted a strat they have the EJ strat which is spot on with my taste. They also have a model for every year of the early days from 57 to the CBS days in the 70s.

Is there a site with backing tracks in different styles? I want to practice improvisation in new genres and would rather not spend hours making shitty backing tracks in genres I don't know a lot about.

this, if you sold your guitars for less than you bought them for and bought more expensive guitars to find a better sound you mega jew-ed yourself for something you could've fixed with around 100-200 dollars.

what do u guys even do when you play with someone else?

the first time i went to play with someone else we just did some shitty covers and a 12 bar

is this all there is to jamming?

is there any decent use for a "metal" pedal (like a Metal Zone or Full Bore) outside of metal.

I'm trying to get rid of a reverb pedal and someone is willing to trade an MXR Full Bore for it, but while i do play a bit of metal it's not my main genre so i don't really want to swap for a pedal i'll only get such a limited sound from.

>>73333522

I've been playing acoustic for ~6 months now and I have to press down very hard. I can't do bar chords at all and simple playing is killing my hands.

My calluses are extremely thick so it's not the tips but my actual fingers that are hurting. I do the stretches and everything btw. I just put new strings on and I'm pretty sure they are medium so it shouldn't be that hard to play normal.

Is my action too high or something or is my grip strength garbage?

>>73337417
>medium
What was the actual gauge?
Measure the height of the low e string at the twelfth fret it should be between 3/32" to 7/64 and the high E no lower than 1/16.
This is pretty much ideal, but I have no idea what kind of condition the frets/neck/truss adjustment are in. That all has to be checked and adjusted as needed before lowering the action.

The neck is the expensive part of the guitar. If its made by cutting corners it wont last 5 years. The metal will rust out because it probably isn't SS. You'd have to replace the pots too likely, unless you don't use them and leave them at 10, but then you're really missing a huge chunk of electric guitar playing.

If you want to throw $300 of electronics into your ply wood good ahead. There's a good chance you won't be playing guitar after high school anyway to realize that the ply wood didn't age well.

You're wasting money though.

The Seymour duncans I put in the jagstang didn't help it overcome its bad neck construction and worn out bridge.

What would I know though, i have so little experience with foreign guitars. I bet your squire is much better than the ones I had.

>>73336552
>>73337194
Are you really attempting to claim your cheap modeling amp is comparable to that Fender Twin?

It probably makes your Epiphone Les Paul JR sound great where as the twin would reveal the bullshit that your guitar is.

GTFO out of here.

I took one listen to all the modeling amps in guitar center and instantly knew they were trash. Even the Super champ XD sounded bad and it has tubes.

The problem with those amps is they don't have enough processing power to actually model the amps well. That's why Helix or Fractal sounds 10x better than Spider amps.

Sorry but the katana is not good. Its for beginners with epiphones. Every guitar sounds the same through it.

You should have bought a blues Jr or a roland solid state over that junk.

>>73338210
Many guitar centers are reducing inventory heavily as the end draws closer. They don't want to get stuck with thousands of dollars of guitars on hand when they have to do liquidation sales. They probably just sold what they had and didn't reorder anything but the most popular in small amounts telling customers they will order whatever they don't have.

Guitar music is not popular and millennials in general don't like hobbies that aren't weed and alcohol.

>>73338318
That wasn't me. Also no one is comparing any modeling amp to a tweed, you fucking autismo.

Plus, check your ears, because the new new modeling amps sound really nice, not fake like 3-4 years ago. Also comparing absolute garbage tier amp (spider) to any higher model amp is just retarded.

>>73339917
You talking about the bends? Sounds like he thickened them a bit with a very short delay. Thats the extent of my effects knowledge and you didn't actually link 27:40.

>a p90 is a humbucker
>without the humbucking

Are you fucking retarded? A p90 is just an overwound single coil.

>>73338374
pfffft. the katana and the spider are the same thing. You wont get great models out of either. Just crank the gain and try to hide the shitty sound quality.

>>73339448
I think its one of the best guitar amps ever made. Not that these poor faggots would even know what it is let alone why its better than their spiders, katanas, codes, and mustangs.

>>73329881
You can write songs like anyone, except you have to study their writing habits and you yourself have to know how to write music.

>>73334205
Nigga you sold your guitars because you didn't like the pickups that you could easily swap out?

>>73337345
You are so retarded. Ever heard of pedals?

>>73339988
Sounds like a big muff type fuzz with the mids/treble rolled off a bit.

>>73340123

Some day I'm gonna get my hands on a dumble, but I feel like I already have some sort of heirloom with this 65 TR.

How do you guys deal with writer's block?

Every time I try and sit down to come up with something I'll hit on a good riff or progression or something after a few minutes and then I won't be able to come up with anything else no matter how long I sit try. It used to just be kind of annoying but now I feel like I won't be able to actually make any progress until I get over this

>>73340509
I learnt music.

>>73340521
HAHA LEARNING MUSIC

IMPLYING LEARNING MUSIC IS LE EBIN MEMORY REMEMBERING OF MATHEMATICAL FORMULAS

nah square mind, jimy hendrix played by ear. musical education is a meme

music is poetry
poetry is life
music comes from sensible life experiences. everything else is youre have been scammed

>Are you really attempting to claim your cheap modeling amp is comparable to that Fender Twin?
Oh im sorry little butthurty

scientist made a perfect equation to cheaply emulate a sound and you're butthurt because you spend a trillon dollar on meme 60 year old technology because "it has a warmer sound" and "i can tell the difference i have a nice year"

This the same happens in all other places of human culture.

Under blind tests even the most experienced wine experts can distinguish fine wine from medium wine.

The same is for everything, people just buy expensive stuff to compensate for small dicks and feel superior, many things have been objectively proven to be exactly better at the medium range.

you are getting exponentially more stupid.

>48 hours to bump limit
It's even worse than i thought

>>73340826
yeah what's going on

anyway does anyone know how i can get a small amount of feedback easily in a live setting without getting close to the amp

stupid is how people who are objectively wrong perceive demonstrated truths

>>73340733

You seem to be the assblasted one. Not even the guy you responded to but you sound a little special. I've owned a dozen amps from crappy solid states to high end vintage tube amps and there is definitely a difference. Each amp has its own distinct voice. I prefer the sound of a hot tube amp, it just seems more organic than playing through a piece of circuit board. The tone is more pleasing to the ear and a good amp will get some nice breakup when it gets hot while not sounding like the staticy fake drive sound you get from a solid state. If you want to play disgusting sounding metal with your "distortion" knob pegged to 10 then a solid state works fine, anything where you need clean sound to slightly burning you just can't beat a tube amp, you really can't.

>>73340852
>>73340880
>>73340898
is there a way to have feedback if im using an audio interface and headphones?

Vintage Jazzymasty or holiday, lads?

>>73341000

You want to blow your eardrums?

>>73313235
Don't let those mean anons get to you. Learning guitar takes a long time. After practicing every day for a year, you'll see a difference.

Hell I only see myself growing as a musician in intervals of a year. Sadly the voocaroo link is broken for me so I can't give you precise feedback, but generally:

1)Practice with a metronome
2)Learn the "cowboy" chords or "open" chords
3)Learn notes on 5th and 6th string
4)If you have the money - don't be afraid to find a teacher. Progress with a teacher is much quicker. It's basically a pay to win shortcut, if you, ofcourse, still practice at home and not only during lessons.

>>73341000
i'm sure there are plugins on the amp simulators that would imitate it, right? never used them
>>73341032
>yfw strats are the new jazzmasters

>>73340970
So you're admitting you're stupid?

>>73340979
Why are you comparing cheap crappy solid state amps to high end tubes?
Get with the times dude, the last generation of amps (last year) sounds perfectly fine (not spiders and other mememachines) and will continue to get better.

>>73341068

I said I've owned everything in between. Solid states can't compete with tube if that were true 99% of semi pro to pro musicians wouldn't be using a Twin Reverb or similar.

>>73341129
looks like bbking with his solidstate amp was an exception then

You're funny

top kek

come on girls wrap it up, everyone know that valve is superior master race and that it will never be beaten

what the hell is it with people defending solid state amps? buyers remorse?

>>73341398
>buyers remorse?
everything in the music world is buyers remorse

i've never heard someone say " HEY I SPENT 1000 U$S ON A PIECE OF USELESS ADVICE, IM AN IDIOT AND SHOULD BE SHOT"

>>73341398
TOOB OVERDRIVE is a dadrocker meme. If you just want a good clean sound or a pedal platform you can't go wrong with a solid state amp. Less shit to worry about.

>>73341449
>a bunch of bullshit pedals is less shit than one single valve amp
:-)

>>73341449

Lol nothing compares to the twin reverb clean gtfo

>>73341449
>>73341475
get on my level plebs

good laptop+good audio interface=any kind of sound you want, of any kind

>>73341443

Spent $2500 on a guitar and it's the best purchase I've ever made.

>>73341449
go ahead and find me a clean solid state that sounds as good as a twin reverb. oh wait you can't. even a cheap low end tube amp sounds better than solid state horseshit.

don't even give me that reliability excuse because it's a crock of shit and the only people who have those issues are morons who treat their gear like animals and then bitch and moan when they break

>>73341502
only if the only kind of sound you want is buzz

>>73341502
Not true. I want to sound good. Maybe if you're doing lofi hipster shit it works great, but that's not what I make.

>>73341502
i feel bad for people that are so deaf they think that kind of shit sounds good

>>73341507
i've spent 6000U$S and i knwo i havent been scammed because the salesmen told me it was made of special dadrock tonewood which intensifies the sound waves and gives it warmth

>>73341551
>only if the only kind of sound you want is buzz
buzz is a matter of correct grounding, if you do things right you get a 100% clean signal to do what you want

>>73341608

>retards with no understanding of electricity trying to talk about how it works
Actually not surprised knowing the calibre of posters in this thread

>>73341653
not him, but yes a sound interface user (im the stoner newb) so there's no way to remove buzz from an audio interface?

Everyone in this thread is very angry. Why?

>>73341670
guitar players

>>73341670
because 90% of the people in this thread are fucking retards

>>73341667
>im the stoner newb
I can tell, your English is worse than the Brazilian's.

>>73341520
Nothing wrong with a twin reverb, had one and got rid of it because it was noisy as shit and needed servicing way too much.I like dead silent amps so most tube amps are a pain for me. I think the cleans on a polytone minibrute sound better

I have solid state Marshall and it sounds like pure trash. The clean channel is awful and the overdrive is mediocre at best. I know people like to call modeling amps memes, but ditching that Marshall for a THR is one of the best decisions I've made.

>>73341703

Did you drop it or leave it the rain too much?

the amps aren't the problem

>>73341692
sorry im a bit rusty, no way to get a clean sound of an audio interface then?

>>73341678
>91%

>>73341747
You need a quality a/d converter

>>73341765
but the power comes directly from the computer, it is an usb interface

>>73341722
No but it needed tubes just about every year, and I would get random buzzes and hums from caps and other components burning out, I guess from overheating.
>>73341739
>hurr durr every guitarist should be an amp tech.

>>73341762
That would imply there's 100 people who post here. It's closer to 17. Learn some fucking math.

>>73341705
I'm considering picking up one of those since I live in an apartment and getting a 1x12 modelling combo wasn't too great of an idea. Does it work well with pedals? I've seen people online say it doesn't.

>>73341739

Yeah my TR is 52 years old and is silent as a mouse.

>>73341705
if you're just a bedroom guitarist practicing and fucking around, there's nothing wrong with modelling amps, they're good enough. that is their only real use though, anyone saying otherwise has never played a gig in their life

>>73341784
Do you bitch when you change your oil every 3 months too? Also, amp parts don't just blow because they feel like it. If you believe that your tech fed you a line of shit and you asked for seconds.

>>73341774
Replace it with a quality mixer/channel strip and a/d converter
