hi

From last thread
So How would one put their guitar through a synth and use it to make effects
>What kind of synth would I need?
>Do I need an audio interface? If so I have access to one
>Pls dont lynch im just a poor retard who likes experimenting with shit he has little knowledge about

should i get a job or try to make money doing lessons and sideman work
will i be able to do the second if im working at a normal job

>>73480336
>will i be able to do the second if im working at a normal job

sure whats the worst that could happen?

>>73480336
get a regular monthly wage and then go on from that.
whatever happens its nice to have certain ££

>>73480393
not have the time

Tell me about your bass player experiences?

I play bass and I'm not really that normal either.

Yes if its a nice guitar, I've never used that oasis one I used the daddario packs.

does getting drunk ever help you maintain rhythm better? I feel like I can better coordinate left hand right hand rhythm better after a few shots.

Sounds like he had his way with you honestly. That's how bass players are.

What's the best MultiFX pedal to use at home and record stuff via USB? I don't want an interface because I like playing though my amp. The newest zoom G3n doesn't work as an USB interface, but has the best stuff, including drum rhythms. The Boss G-001 seems like a good desktop option.

oh fuck I didn't even notice that disgusting synth pickup. don't post here ever again

I'd like to play something like that clean muted pattern at 4:36 in this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDZMmExtbyA

The rest of the "solo" is shite but I really like that clean poppy sound. Can you recommend me anything to check out? Guitarists that play more stuff like that or do you even know the pattern maybe?

What's the cheapest gear if I want to rip off--err sound like Royal Blood/DFA1979?

>>73480899
Sounds neat that it absorbs and releases moisture, but I've seen some reviews talk about leaking or not properly humidifying. Have you seen or had any such issue?

>>73480578
would you rec those pedals

>>73481057
In he last thread he said he's Canadian so it's really like $300 American

not that guy but i use the same. theres no refilling water or anything like that so theres no way anything can leak out. its a sealed pouch that goes inside a cloth sleeve.

if you want that warm "Strokes-y" overdriven guitar tone, they're the pedals to go for. since they're pretty much the same pedals that Albert Hammond Jr uses himself.

Apparently there's some kind of gel inside of it that some people have had weird problems with, but I shouldn't really have to worry about this. D'darrio even covered repair costs for some of the people leaving the reviews.

>>73481063
just use your pedalboard and a soundcard with a 1/4" input you nerd

>>73482391
I don't have a pedalboard, only a drive pedal. The MultiFX would be more than just an interface.

>>73482433
ok let's do this
what's your budget and what fx do you like?

>>73481704
Just use a good delay pedal and palm mute really that's about it

>>73482473
I'm not on the US but let's say around 250 dollars(the zoom G3Xn is around $200 and the G-001 is $300 as far as I've seen)

I want a bit if everything. I'm really not into funky sounds. I like to have many choices of ODs and distortions. Reverb, delay, chorus, flanger and phaser are cool, but I've never messed with them. I'd like to have a rhythm machine to play along, and a looper is also very cool.

Buying all of this separately would be way off my budget, so the MultiFX seems like a fun choice.

>>73482731
you're better off with analog pedals, even cheap pedals for distortions imo, but that's your call
is it a big deal to be able to use many fx at once?

>>73482757
I don't know, I've never had more than one pedal.

>>73482196
Yes the leopard stripes

>>73482757
>you're better off with analog pedals

What is your argument? Or does your autism only allow you to repeat memes that you dont understand?

>>73482891
idgaf about this, it's just an opinion based on the experience that the overdrive and distortion from my mxr pedals sound better than any multi fx i've had or have atm

Any classical (or flamenco) fags here? Looking into some guitar supports on stringbymail.com, and I'm trying to decide between the Gitano and the EFEL basic support. Anyone have any experience with these? Are other supports even worth the money when I already have a footstool?

Also, any string suggestions? I mostly use D'adarrio pro arte hard or extra hard tension. I have also used Savarez extra high tension, and a high tension set that had wound second and third strings, which I hated.

I can't believe I fell for the thicc string meme. I just put 9s on and I set the action down real low and this is incredible.

>>73483276
Having thick strings is a good way of strengthening your fingers. Thats why thinner gauge strings will be so much easier to play

>>73480465
>started as three guitarists
>demoted the one who put up the least resistance to bass
>couple years later
>keeps trying to play lead bass parts where they don't belong at all
>always trying to write wonky chromatic parts that make us sound like circus music
>insists on playing with fingers even though he sounds 3x cleaner with a pick and the attack of a pick suits our music at least equally if not better
>complains about how we write too quickly and need to slow down so he can compose parts of the song instead of just writing basslines underneath
>we try and he has no ideas
>keeps getting mad at us regardless
>bought a 6-string bass

All in all he's not that bad though, just a bit difficult to work with sometimes. We tried looking for replacements at one point and somehow everyone who auditioned was much worse. We had one guy bring in a fretless who couldn't play in tune to save his life

>>73483359
>>bought a 6-string bass

I'm just starting and after researching a bit I got this like new for $99 how'd I do?

>>73484216
*199 sorry

So, I'm kinda new to pedals but it's time I star to mess around a little bit

I usually use Ableton for my effects, along with a Roland RE-201 space echo

I own a fender jag and a LP, I'm mainly looking for a overdrive/fuzz and some funny effect

>>73484216
well, that's a sweet bargain
never played a squier jazz, but I assume it's kind of good, squier tier
maybe better than my shitty yamaha too

>>73484241
That's still alright

how can you work out how to play a song using relative pitch if it's a really fast song? can you slow it down without distorting it?

Why is blues guitar so fucking boring? I mean, there are some guys who used to play lots of interesting stuff like Robert Lockwood or Hubert Sumlin or Skip James, but 90% is unbearable. I'd kill myself if I had to endure an Albert King album, or this fucking trash

In my defense, he has a bass player personality. He's still obedient, except for the pick thing and some unwarranted whining now and then. Might still replace him.

But for real, make sure you're using a metronome to guarantee that you're in time. Could also be that you aren't playing confidently. You gotta feel it mang.

You need to learn some composition you should play some metal since it's fairly easy to get something going while staying in time and once you get the feel for just improv and all that venture out a bit

Probably a stupid question, but can I take a ukulele and order the strings after the thickness like on a guitar and tune them DGBE?
That way, I can just use regular guitar triads to form chords instead of learning the fretboard all over again.

Fuck that. There is no rational reason to put the two thickest strings in the middle and have the treble strings at opposite ends of the fretboard. How the hell am I supposed to play bass lines like that when I play finger style?

>>73492953
that is so fucking stupid

also no you can't do that

>>73493132
yeah the ukulele is a pretty fucking retarded instrument, so why do you even want one?

Damn guys, still gotta wait like a month to buy my Ibanez RG Prestige RG652AHMFX, or a Kiesel Aries, so many different things I could get, though the body on an aries seems kind of larger than an rg

Have you guys ever had any luck with local guitar shops?

I'm traveling to another city a few hours from me today and I figured while I was there I might as well try and pick up some gear but Craigslist is pretty empty

>>73493160
I have lately had a massive boner for upbeat folk music like Ukulele Clan Band. I love the sound of the instrument, but I hate the layout of the fretboard and the tuning.

>>73492953
The shapes are already the same as on the top 4 strings of a guitar, you'll just have a shittier version of a guitar if you take out the only interesting/specific feature of the uke (the lowest string being an octave higher).

>>73485509
>>73485101
>>73482926
lol

>>73493262
Oh shit, I didn't notice that the tuning already is the same as on the guitar, except moved up five frets.
All right, then. I still hate the string order.

>>73493256
By nature they're hit or miss. You might find some local gem that has good gear and helpful staff, or you might end up in my trash town where the only music shop has shit selection and delusional owners. Only way to know is to go in and browse.

One good thing I can say about Guitar Center stores is that at least they're consistent and have a good selection, because trying to browse the local scene can be a clusterfuck of limited selection and owners who think they can get away with overcharging on low-mid range gear

Yes, I also didn't notice at first, it can be helpful to know that. But I still don't get what's bothering you about the string order. In my opinion ukulele isn't a functional "lead" instrument, are you planning to use it as one? The difference in order isn't really noticeable when strumming.

>>73493461
your third world tile floor makes me sad

>>73493567
Well, I play mostly fingerstyle on the guitar, so I'm used to having my thumb play the thickest strings while using the rest of my fingers on the thinner ones.
It's really hard to play fingerstyle on the ukulele like that, so I'd love to switch the strings to accommodate my usual playing style.

>>73493363
Iirc, they sell sets of strings with a low G string, but I've never tried it

your average D chord shape is now a G chord. your A chord shape now becomes a D. the E shape now becomes an A. it's just how the instrument works.
Grab your guitar and capo your fretboard so all your open strings are a perfect 4th higher than the open string, ingore your two bass strings, and there you go; you now know how to play a ukulele.

If it's like the pic I posted, what do you think of it? Any cons?

>>73495735
I find it really uncomfortable after a while, especially during long practice sessions. Either my back starts to hurt, or my leg falls asleep for some reason. Pic related is how I usually sit to avoid these problems, but it's not as stable and I can't see the fretboard as well.
Some of the students here use ergoplays a bit more, sometimes a pillow or a pillow and footstool. One guy has a murata, but that's over $60 and he sometimes uses a low foot stool with it.

I look pretty autistic when I play guitar. I close my eyes and look down.
Does this look as retarded as it think it does, or is it OK?
And if not, how to fix?

I might be selling my LP Trad tomorrow, don't really need the money but I don't know if I really need it as my main guitar is a tele. Please talk me out of it /mu/.

What are some things you do to practice scales?
So far I do an ascending/descending from top to bottom, then i play the chords and play them in various arpeggio patterns. Is this good enough or should I do more?
I'm playing on bass btw

Learning "Under a Glass Moon" has made me appreciate rhythm playing. What are some cool songs with awesome rhythm, that have cool solos as well? I wanna get good on both aspects.

wtf, why would you sell that, theyre only going to get more expensive as years go on

>>73496175
I leave it up to my pedals. I don't ever use the amp distortion. Use the cleanest channel, dail down the gain, level the EQ, use volume accordingly.
i only ever touch the amp if I'm turning it on, or using the built in effects and reverb.

btw this is how low the master volume

>>73500771
nice honky low mids

So i learned my scales and worked on technique and spider exercises.
Now i can noodle the minor scale around at decent speed.
But still have a poor ear for soloing when its more than 2 chords, i just go playing the scale randomly and hoping that some interval will sound good. The only sound i know how its going to sound is that of the standard pentatonic box plus adding intervals that i like, and even that i cant make it fit all the times.
Also im still bad at writing riffs and parts for songs, probably also because of the vague ear for intervals.
What do? Should i just keep learning more old songs?

Thanks for this, for some reason I thought they were supposed to be almost right on the fret, I remember doing that when I played acoustic guitar but I was probably wrong then too, I was really young.

this made me laugh, I don't care if it's supposed to be funny or not

raising the action causes the intonation to go sharp and because of that i can only raise it to around 3.5mm. what do to be able to raise it higher? pay to install the bridge further?

any thoughts on differences IBANEZ AF75 and IBANEZ AG75 semi acoustic guitar? Is the AF semi as well?

Whats the general consensus on Tokai Les Pauls? Are they bad? I am seeing some of them at 200-300 range. Wonder if it would be a bad investment.

>>73503818
About the size of big cereal box

>>73504351
They're both fully hollow (not semi-hollow) Difference as far as I can tell is only the body shape/size. The AG75 is 14.5" at the lower bout vs 15 3/4".

>>73504406
I picked up one of the Chinese made ones from Reverb not too long ago, it's pretty nice for a $300. It's on par quality wise with the Squire Vintage modified jags and jazzmasters

They make a slim version of both of those guitars that reacts a little bit more like a semi-hollow (not so much feedback) Afs75 and AGS73 I believe.

how big is the benefit of learning all the notes on the fretboard?
