Do you have any Jackson guitars? Post em. How is the quality these days now that Fender owns them?

I guess there is a global decline of quality in this sense that regardless of guitar brand they are all made in Korea or in other oriental country anyway. This is the reason why market is saturated with all these "signature models" from even guys you ever knew existed. Just make a bit custom shape, slap in certain specs -> manufacture in China for cheap and sell it as "signature model"...

>>73624690
>I can't get a good sound out of it
Because there's no such thing as good pedal distortion, it has to come from the amp

>>73624745
explain the angry charlie

>>73624745
What do you mean? An effect built into the amp?
Or a good amp, on clean with the pedal will sound good?

Amp is a Rolan cube 30.

Is there anything wrong with plugging the pedal into a sound system?

I want to get my first guitar. Been looking around a bit and I don't want to spend too much being an absolute beginner and all, but I do want a somewhat nice guitar. I can afford to get something more than bottom of the barrel trash and I figure a nice guitar motivates much more to actually play it than a trash one.
I'm more into rock and metal (stoner, doom, psych, death, black etc. The heavy stuff.) than the more clean genres, so I was looking at an Epiphone SG Special (€150). Good choice? I do like how it looks and sounds.
And if so, I will need an amp to go with it. Just a practice amp for at home so it needs at least a headphone out. Any recommendations?

>>73624807
just get a squire strat hss

>>73624807
I was going to recommend epiphone SG before I even read that far.

Great all rounder, good for heavier stuff.

>>73624807
>>73624841
Go Gibson or go home

>>73624847
shouldn't you be at work dad?

>>73624847
Epiphone is a great guitar for a great price.
My SG makes me feel guilty because I play it more than my $1000 guitar

Are there any pedals under $100 that sound like Adam Jones from Tool?

>>73624889
adam doesn't really use a lot of effects, mostly just distortion. the thing with him is he mixes 3 different amps together to get his sound. the closest thing i'd say you can get to his sound is a rat

>>73624772
>What do you mean? An effect built into the amp?
A separate high-gain channel in the amp.

This is the tried and true method for good distortion:
High gain tube amp + good cab + overdrive pedal
(almost all the distortion should come from the amp, the OD pedal is just to increase the level going in and color the tone a bit)

Everything else like pedals, amp sims, modeling amps, etc are just an attempt to replicate a good tube amp setup. Some methods get close, most fall far short
What you need to do is upgrade the amp, not buy a pedal. Save up a couple thousand for a good half stack - dropping a hundred or so on pedals won't get you where you want to be. Every kid playing in their bedroom on a practice amp realizes this eventually

>>73625087
>i've never tried any other distortion pedal other than a ds1: the post

>>73625087
>implying I want a 'good' distortion sound

>>73625087
Hell, I play through my sound system half the time.

I just want a decent effect pedal. Sorry you had to waste your time writing all that out.

I'm trying to decide which amp will replace my small ibanez practice amp.

Atm the 3 brands i'm considering:
Fender amps
Orange amps
Roland Jc-40

>>73625119
>wanting to sound like trash
You do you, guy. No skin off my nards
>>73625114
All those supposedly good pedals fall into the category of 'methods that get close to accurately replicating the sound'. It depends if you're the kind of person who can be happy with "almost good enough"
>>73625148
That's pretty much stating "I'm not interested in good tone" and then asking "how do I get good tone?" - the answer is not with a pedal and not through your sound system

>>73625209
>All those supposedly good pedals fall into the category of 'methods that get close to accurately replicating the sound'. It depends if you're the kind of person who can be happy with "almost good enough"

please stop posting, it's obvious you haven't tried many distortion pedals

>>73625209
>That's pretty much stating "I'm not interested in good tone"
The question was which sub $100 pedal had the best tone
Not how to spend $1000s on the perfect tone

>>73620404
Get 2 guitars lol

>>73625220
Here's a little something my karate sensei taught me - "the enemy of excellence is good enough"

Literally these pedals only exist to replicate the sound of tube distortion. It's impossible for a replication to surpass the original, the best you can hope for is to become good enough. Therefore it's pointless to delve into pedals. Unless you're prepared to forsake excellence.

>>73625222
>"how do I get good tone out of this"
*you can't, because reasons*
>"what do you mean?"
*expounds upon reasons*
>moves the goalpost

Okay.

>>73625188
What kind of output do you want? JCs arent that good for distortion ime(one company that backlines a festival every year has a couple and i always play around with them). I like the peavey classic 30, i've got some good cleans out of it before and the dirt is about what youd expect from a peavey. I have a fender london 185 from the 80s that's pretty cool, the clean channel reminds me of a jc but not as nice, the distorted channel sounds like a low gain fuzz pedal(anything but dimed gain doesn't sound too good) which i kinda like but I only use the dirt for recording sometimes. The london is loud as fuck, but cheap because it wasn't recieved well at all, and you can get it as a 2x12 combo(but it's called a pro 185). The old fender amps and their clones are nice, the twin reverb is great for clean, as are the bassman/jtm45 which breaks up a little easier. The newer models are good but different, the blues and hotrod series are alright. There's also the Vox AC series. Some JCM900s have pretty cool clean channels, but they're not for everybody. I modded my 4100DR and it's my favorite amp. Some hughes and kettners have pretty good clean channels too. There's also the mesa lone star classics. I also had the opportunity to play through one of those old musicman amos with an SS pre and tube power amp, it was nice but not really my taste.

Get a Les Paul and laugh at the poorfags with the rest of us Gibson 'cucks'. The key to getting a good tone out of a Squier Jazzmaster is to harbor intense jealousy, and we're providing that service.

What are some essentail strumming patterns I should learn? I just want to sound more "musical" while practicing chord changes.

>>73625918

There's nothing really "essential." You'll pick it up naturally from playing along with records you like.

If you can pick up Jessica by the Allman Brothers, you'll get pretty much that whole genre.

Drive by Incubus is a good one for patterns, too.

You can, it's just doubling the root. Most beginers hands won't stretch for it easily.

What does a CIJ Jazzmaster from around '02 or '04 go for these days?
And is it worth picking up over a MIM model?

I usually play with Ableton and I never owned a single pedal

I'm not very skilled, but I like to play with chords and harmonies, having different "sound textures" all over the place while recording

should I start buying some pedals? I could even build myself some actually
Is it wrong that I'm more into sound and feel rather than shredding and doing powersolos?

>>73620404
get a gibson moderne ofc

>>73628265
If you're already recording stuff, just go deep into the plugin side of things instead

>>73628364
covers, mostly
usually bands have more than one guitar so I record different lines with different effects, plugins and presets

isn't hardware usually better than software when it comes to producing?

I just thought of a new idea to improve my soloing, I hum with my voice what would sound good on track and then transcribe it to guitar, does that sound like a good idea?

>>73625371
>these pedals only exist to replicate the sound of tube distortion
nope

>>73628467
Part of the point of using pedals is playing WITH the effect, as opposed to playing something and then adding the effect later

I've written songs a while and even studied music theory in school. Just want to see what other people's thoughts are on things like writers block and their process. I mean, doesn't it happen to you?

>>73630073
I will help you.

I want you to focus on your inner self. try to imagine a place you would love to be in. it can be a beautiful place, it can be a fun place, it can be anything.

Now let all the shapes and structures in this place form in your mind. notice how vibrant and beautiful the colors are. try to pay attention if there is any smell in the air.

Now, try to imagine what music would play in the background if this was a scene in a movie. it has to be music that doesn't exist yet, because its a place that only exists within your own inner world.

Listen to this music carefully, and then pick up your guitar/whatever instrument and learn to play it

>>73630133
>doesn't it happen to you?
nope

>>73630083
This is really cool man.

I still like my combination of Belle Epoch + Context Reverb more than the roland space echo tho (but i admit its cool as fuck that you got one of those).

Skip 7 minutes into this video this is what the Belle Epoch does:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IkfPCX0vNwA

(there is also a deluxe version of the belle epoch with more features, but i only got the normal version)

>>73630241
Nice features, especially the sustain

I've been playing with a Jaguar lately and I was wondering if adding a fernandes sustainer pickup could help but sounds like a waste

>>73630532
You know what's even cooler?
The Belle Epoch literally has an hidden feature which transforms it into a Vibrato-delay pedal.

You need to unplug and replug the pedal with the modulation knob maxed to activate this hidden mode:

>>73630580

Ibanez Artcore and Artstar. They're not quite the same shape but affordable double cut semi-hollow.

>tfw shopping around for my first guitar
This is getting a bit pricey for something that I'm not quite sure of I will have sufficient mental fortitude in order to persevere in.
I've been hugely into guitar music for 2 decades now though, so I figure it's time to start learning to play myself before I become a wizard in a couple of years.

>>73632997
also
>a tuner
i didn't even have a tuner until i'd been playing for 2 years
i learnt how to tune by listening to a song and playing it, adjusting until the notes sounded correct.

i remember mostly playing people are strange and tuning my guitar until it sounded close to the song and eventually i just learned how to tune by ear pretty much perfectly

>>73633084
well, you're not doing too bad if you're just starting really, you'll probably learn naturally if you're passionate enough and it probably requires personal experience anyway, etc.

>>73633084
thats bullshit, epi sg400 is a great guitar and so are thse little orange amps with builtin tuneres

What are some very dark woods used on soundboard ?

>>73632997
the only thing i wouldn't buy there is the orange crush amp. just get something cheap as fuck, you're gonna replace it soon anyway, unless you've researched the resell value or something.

also the tuner seems too expensive, again there must be a cheaper option which will work just as well

>>73633618
The bass from 'I Wanna Be Adored' by The Stone Roses, and from the track 'Crushed' by Brian Jonestown Massacre

They are fairly simple to play, but they are fucking great

Guys need your help.

I just bought my first electric guitar, a Vintage v100. However, the first three strings seem to buzz, and i have no idea what to do. The buzz comes from the head of the guitar, not the fretboard.

Any ideas? Is this common?

Buzzing at the nut?

>>73633975
that's the problem, I'm unsure if it's the nut or the screws

>>73633909
listen closer and check if its buzzing at the tuners or at the nut

It's the tuners imo, more like a rattlesnake

But tonnes of great artists have made good music using distortion pedals primarily - Buzz Osbourne of the Melvins, Jonny Greenwood, Kurt Cobain (so what if he had bad tone or if the music is simple?), Kevin Shields, Justin Trosper, David Pajo, J. Mascis, Joey Santiago. These are all part of critically acclaimed bands focused on guitar music. The idea that one needs a tubez to make good guitar music is a self-deception that you've placed on yourself.

>>73636815
>argues for distortion pedals
>admits they sound like shit

>>73636811
thanks for watching

>>73636838
You don't get it do you? A lot of the time their music is good because their guitar tones are weird and unconventional, they actually manage to create something great and new as opposed to obsessing over what some buttrocker thinks is most important. By 'bad' tone I meant that these artists have a tone that you would call shit, but it sounds perfectly fine on the records they have done.

What non-argument? See what I mean?

>>73637142

Hey, you arent Roman, I am Roman.

>>73637258
The one where you tried to sneak fuzz and overdrive pedals in as distortion pedals. Yes, they're the same type of effect, but they sound different and work in different ways. You're either Roman or retarded.

>>73633348
lol those big ass felt ones used to mute a bass

>>73633348
a quarter

>>73637299
And now you're probably going through some gear website to find a live pedalboard for all those people thay has a ds1 on it.

>>73637299
They fall in the same family of pedals that add dirt (crunch, distortion, whatever sure they're different technically and create different sounds but to the guy I was responding too the distinction wasn't philosophically important) and aren't derived from the amp itself. And you're calling ME retarded? Look in the mirror dude

>>73637387
Go back to this >>73637026

>>73637404
Not an argument sonny

>>73637387
everyone knows that fuzz is a sound you cant get from tubes, overdrive is used to cause tubes to break up at lower volumes, and that distortion is meant to sound like tubes breaking up

i've got nothing against les pauls

Recently I acquired a fender start. And everything is great, but there is this little thing that ticks me. I would like to have the tremolo arm set up in a way that it is loose enough to flop down when I release it, but there is no wobbliness when using it. Is there a solution for this? On the internet I've only seen people talking about how to make the arm stay put in the position where you want it, which doesn't help me at all.
