White Dog Eggs posted:Irritating man with an irritating haircut makes a stupid iOS guitar thing which is apparently good for learning guitar on even though it's not a guitar, or something. To be honest, I didn't finish the video. So his sales pitch is he's too stupid to figure out how to play guitar like a normal person so trust him that he made a plastic toy which accomplishes the same task? e: hahaha seriously i can't get over how much of a solution in search of a problem this dumb thing is like people get started with rock band and apparently it comes with number stickers for the frets, since markers and side dots are apparently too difficult to comprehend, but jesus this is a whole new dimension of dumb e2: and the very thing that twat is complaining about- durr you have to play a g chord for weeks it don't sound like so songs i know, then the promotional video is the program showing you how to make basic chords Alec Bald Snatch fucked around with this message at 01:21 on Jan 30, 2014 |

Renegret posted:Tell him that the internet thinks he's wrong, because there's nothing quite as terrifying as tuning an E string using the pegs while you're holding it up in the proper position and guitar tuners would solve that problem. I've actually got a cut on my face from over-tighening an E string earlier today, don't use speedtuners with electric screwdrivers.

Well as luck would have it: This is the Djentstick, one stringed fretless low tune instrument i've made myself featuring an active EMG81 pickup thru a Line 6 Pod XT. All the audio was recorded only using the Djentstick! Believe it or not! Enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhOYflyfOPM

White Dog Eggs posted:There is an old violin ("not fiddle, violin") player who drinks at one of the pubs I got to, I like to wind him up by taking about putting guitar tuners on his violin, for some reason it works him into this charmingly inept old-man rage "Guitar tuners on a violin??? I'd sooner let you put tits on my dog, at least I'd get some use out of them you stupid bugger". He still goes up on open mic nights too. wtf is this guy talking about "i wanted to play guitar so bad as a kid i started every year from the time i was 6 to the time i was 9" started what man? started loving what? "i spent a lot of time practicing things that didnt sound AT ALL like music. you play a D or a G chord for WEEKS, and it just doesnt sound like anything you signed up for" 1. what the gently caress do you think music sounds like? 2. weeks, seriously? maybe im misremembering what it was like when i started playing guitar but if youre spending weeks, plural, just practicing ONE chord, you might have retard brains and idiot fingers. 3. what the gently caress did you think you were signing up for? H chords? im p. sure this guy doesnt know what a guitar is and spent his childhood practicing music on his moms dildo or something

So I totally have this old knockoff Nashville Tele made by Agile or one of those companies before they had to change the headstocks (it has some kind of hybrid Tele/Strat mess). It actually sounds OK, but it's butchered by a poor paint job someone did on the back of it at one point. What I'm saying is that I'm probably going to sand and refinish it and this seems like the best thread to ask what amazing/awful thing I should do to it. Somewhere I have a etched metal pickguard for a tele covered in rustic filigree bullshit I might dig up and throw on it. If someone knows where to source really kitchsy hardware please also tell me. In addition I can get a pick guard for it in pretty much any color featuring any variety of etches (because I'm friends with laser havers). I should get a pic of my Mando in here if I can get one. It's got a pickguard made out of an old fancy metal serving platter (large metal pick guards give mandos a really neat sound if you know what you're doing).

man thats gross posted:wtf is this guy talking about I think part of his complaint was that you have to do boring finger exercises and you never get to play any songs when you first start playing music. So basically what he wanted was for someone to tell him where to put his fingers so he could play Stairway instead of actually learning how to play the drat thing. Ignoring the fact that boring exercises is how you get good enough to play the music that you like. Also he's just a loving idiot in general.

Tempus Fugit posted:Since I'm a loving dinosaur that only plays outdated 6 string varieties, can someone explain to me how you play a simple barre chord on that 9 stringed monstrosity? You don't. I have an 8-string and the bottom 2 strings are purely for chugs or for extending chords by an octave; it's tuned to EAEADGBE so you can play a chord and barre over the extra strings to give a fifth and an octave below the original root. It's an interesting different sound but takes a bunch of effort not to have it sound like mud with distortion. 9 strings, though.. What would the 9th be tuned to, C#?

Those 9 and 10 string guitars are amazing. You just know the only people who would even entertain the idea of buying them are metal teens and pre teens who would only play the lowest two strings from the 7th fret down anyway. Aww man a 9 string guitar thing about how heavvvvvyyyy the music would be. *picks up guitar* *pong pong djrrang pong pong pong krnk. krnk krnk. krnk ponnggggg* aw yeeeeaaaahhh *kills self* e: ok I hear it now wow I'm old too.

at least schecter wised up a little made it 28" scale, which is still a little short for the low c#. especially since it ships with a .90
