It's me. I am the tonewood denier.

If your wood hasn't been aged for 400 years while being constantly checked by tone specialist monks who took a vow of silence, your guitar is pure and utter garbage. You might as well play a broken ukulele while making armpit fart sounds.

The 'serious' guitar purchasing market is full of corksniffers who would be better vested putting some of the 4k they put in a PRS into some loving lessons.

i'm a little disappointed there's so few blueslawyers and bluesdentists technically adept enough to film themselves and put it on youtube for the rest of us to laugh at

search for an obvious bluesdad thing like prs 10 top and you just get a bunch of music store dorks shredding and that's no fun

Well deep down most of them probably know they are awful. Also interwebs, curse that, full of those drat lazy jobless kids with their twitterbooks, get off my lawn.

edit: What also brightens my day is watching some rich clueless shlub taking in his 3k Gibson hollow body weirdo LP thing and being told that the defects are common to the model. Money well spent.

Gibbons inability to mount hollowbody pickups properly is a feature I guess; I know their cheapo Epiphone lines stick strongly to that tradition.

Paul Gilbert always seems like such a down to earth and likeable guy despite being a technical wonder at guitar. Compared to other speed players I also think he has more musicality and isn't just showing off and doing "tricks" all the time, like for instance Michael Angelo, master of the Batio.

That's really cool. I'd listen to an entire album of weird atmospheric ominous tones like that.

When the guitar kicked in I felt like I had stepped inside a Beksinski painting.

Get this out of the Stupid Music poo poo thread, cause I'm using it as a soundtrack for my Return to the Planet of the Space Vampires movie.

edit: gently caress I hit 1:40 and it's amazing.

Wow, I'm glad people enjoyed it. I figured it was a pretty neat thing to play around with as well, and I'm hoping to make some self-indulgent extended song-that-sprawls-to-an-album out of that sometime soon, so thanks all for the encouragement.

Btw, does anyone have the link to the video where some guitar shop employees are reviewing a custom made boutique guitar from the least humble luthier in the world and it's a really lovely build with cheap parts and doesn't intonate worth poo poo? It had a floyd-like trem that was engraved with a very cryptic sentence.

correct

Also the curved frets are a lovely, poorly executed rip-off of Oni Guitars' E-Scale which actually seems well thought out.
