living the modern metal dream my negro

>>34373688
Literally impossible, can barely do a barre on 4 chords.

My finger is like 2 inch long going from my knuckle.

>>34373709
they're usually failed musicians that had to get a job because they couldn't make a living as a musician, plus most of the people that go into those shops are jackass teenagers. they're assholes but it's kind of understandable, they're surrounded by a bunch of idiots making bad noise all day long

>>34373781
>tfw there is a 65 year old man at your local guitar store that plays Sunshine of your love (just the main lick) 500 times in a row through a shitty squier and modeling amp everytime you go.

>>34373759
Funniest thing is i dont even play in a band im just a hobby guitarist. Its something to do in the neet times, my job isnt regular. I dont have recording equipment or even any effects pedals, i just play for my own enjoyment blasting metal in my room and occasionally post shitty covers recorded with my samsung phone on facebook

>>34373546
I can play some stuff on guitar, pretty much only electric though. I'm not a musician and know hardly anything about theory and my phrasing is pretty terrible if I ever try making something up.

>>34373698
That matching emg set looks aesthetic. My favorite pickups. Only thing better is special expensive companies like bareknuckle. Seymour duncan blackouts eat batteries fast. Invaders are ok.
>>34373975
Im the same way. I learn by ear off youtube. Dont know how to make my own though

I play classical, flamenco and electric, both covers and original compositions. I wish I would be able to record stuff instead of using shitty guitar VSTs but I can't afford it right now, never been in a band either

>>34374090
I am writing a solo black metal project>>34373698
I plan to release on bandcamp. There are a lot of bands that don't gig anon. Be like me an come up with an anonomyous nickname and release under that.

>>34373644
just force it anon

I've been playing for a few months now, but I want to get into singing too. Can anyone learn to sing nicely or are some people just doomed? I can't stand the sound of my own voice desu

lol musical fedoras

>>34374243
t. talentless neckbeard

I play guitar, it's all classical fingerstyle type numbers

>>34373644
Save up and buy an ibanez with a wizard neck or a tele. The smaller necks will help you.

>>34374590
I kind of want to buy a tele and metalize it, like active pickups, throw on a locking tremolo, that would be pretty badass

>>34374699
Pretty sure the Jim Root Tele already does that. No Locking trem tho

>>34374800
Locking tremolos are kind of a pain but i think guitars that have them just look more aesthetic i dont know what it is. And whammy bar tricks are cool.

>>34373546
I really want to play finger picking style but my body just refuses to grasp how to do it.

>>34374547
can you play recuerdos?

jazzmaster >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> any other guitar

I quit guitar because of the state of my crippling depression. But I was quite good. I could play some difficult solos, beat it, crazy train, etc.

>>34375366
But could you play Buckethead on expert level?

>>34375366
>those are difficult solos.
Rly bro?

>>34375591
good for plebs

>>34375505
I don't really like metal, in fact it's not interesting at all to me- find classical guitar more interesting

>>34375591
Yeah kek, i want to throw some technical death metal at this guy.

Soloing is so fucking hard. My fretting fingers can move fast enough and i can learn the right notes, but i cant seem to coordinate the picking so that each note is like alternate up/down pick and it comes out sloppy

>>34375634
>metal

lol. try and play asturias or invocacion y danza, manchild.

>>34373733
>ywn own a 5150

why the fuck do i still try?

>technical death metal
Only way you could make that more boring is if you added math equations to the fretboard

any G&L guys in here?

>>34375766
You sound like a fuckin cuck
>>34375793
Theyre not that bad, used heads 500 and cabs about the same.
>>34375796
Tech death is indeed boring, i prefer melodic death metal, but it is very difficult to play usually and a good example of raw ability not soul or whatever

>>34374090
You should record music just for yourself. It's what I do.

I have a bunch of black metal and dsbm tracks that I will never let anyone else listen to.

They are beautiful to me like pure, virgin winter snow. Nothing can touch them or they will lose their splendor.

just drums
:(
