I appreciate that

This one has to be from Russia or something because seriously...

I'm sure whatever this is sounds great!

Very 80s. Also I think that middle pickup is actually from a Super Nintendo

Maybe a MIDI controller????

Oh I'm sorry, didn't mean to offend, I'm sure it's a quality product featured on many fine Czech songs!

The cable would just kind of drape over the the strap instead of being looped around like it would if it was a normal jack placement, so there's a way higher chance of it being yanked out when you snag it on something on-stage.

This one is very br00tal.

As is this

For some reason I kind of like their foot pedals:

...even though they look like cheap string lights you'd see on someone's trailer home patio, and like they'd bust into pieces if you stepped on them just a little too hard.

Art deco. They're actually good pedals but they're fragile as gently caress

Here's my guitars for your consideration. Sadly my first guitar is missing, it's in the basement or something, a repainted and burned strat.

From the left:
Ibanez rga121, my newest and best baby. Got it for writing a new album and stuff, band imploded and now im doing electro industrial.

Ibanez rg 550ltd something. The RGs are called the Toyota Corollas of metal here, everyone starts out with one. From the late nineties bought used from a dude who's band got pretty big later on. Sold a loving SG for this and have hated floyd roses ever since. Now the trem is properly blocked, earlier I used a 9v battery.

Gibson SG faded 08. Always liked SGs, played most of the last tour with this and second fave to play.

LTD vb300 27" baritone. Got it because we played in drop B, like the scale but I think the monged SG shape sucks poo poo rear end. Got damaged on a gig (I threw it and there was an unexpeted concrete block on the stage) so I put some instant rust on it. Fugly.

BC Rich Bitch 30" baritone. Its a BC Rich so it's ugly, but it tunes to E an octave down. And it cost like 200� because nobody wanted to buy one. Used it a lot on a post rock type of project.

Because I played brutel metalz, the rga,sg and rich have Bare Knuckle pickups in the bridge (2 warpigs and an Aftermath) and some random stuff on necks.

And check out that carpet, got it for free today.

I quite like Danelectro guitars, they have a weird sound and considering they are made from plywood and mansonite/hardboard, sound pretty good!

The pedals sound good too, although you are totally right about them exploding if you tread on them a bit hard.

This is actually a very well made, very good playing, very good sounding, very expensive guitar.

But good lord.

Everytime you change the strings, just give the fretboard a quick wipe with a rag with some Napatha\White Spirit on, wait a minute then wipe off what's left with a dry cloth, that's all you need. Just use a slightly damp washing up sponge on the body to clean it. Congratulations! Your guitar is now super shiny and not horrible.

Harry in Rio posted:

i use bronze wool and nev-r-dull wadding. it works great. nev-r-dull is awesome for the metal hardware, you do have to wipe it off afterwards with a cloth, but it really cleans nicely. bronze wool won't scratch poo poo like steel or aluminum saddle pieces and poo poo.

Thanks, stuff like this really helps a lot and is great to know

Dean makes some really ugly basses.

^I played one of those once. The single pickup being like a centimeter from the bridge makes it the least versatile and ugliest-sounding bass ever. To be fair, it's like $200.

e: made second image not fuckhuge

pretty much anything dean makes that isn't the ML is ugly as gently caress and/or unoriginal.

No idea. I had a Dean bass very early on when I was learning, and it was ok except it was active and cheap active basses sound pretty awful unless you replace the preamp.
