The Gloaming posted:I, too, hate people who like Steve Vai. People who say that "G3" or whatever is the best band ever are always insufferable music snobs. Soon leads to being told how awful Kurt Cobain was. i remember when i was hugely into prog metal and shred i still thought steve vai was the dorkiest motherfucker on earth

Dr. Faustus posted:No, I actually think it's a good idea to drop $6,000 on a brand new $2,000 guitar that just came off the assembly line and then had $4,000 of UV light and chiseling and finish crackling done to it to make it look like it's 40 years old; so I can look like I've been playing since I was in the womb to show you how awesome I am before I even play the first bar of the song. They're designed after famous artist guitars and some people want to own a replica of what that artist is using on stage. Or of a guitar they saw at Hard Rock or something. It's not to fake usage to try and get credit for the 'damage' on the guitar.

Noctis Horrendae posted:i actually like these and considered buying this exact same one i think they look alright. i have a jackson flying v, although i prefer the Dinky style ones but this was free, anyway, if you usually play sitting down, the v's really really suck. if you want a cool "metal" guitar style then get one with the Explorer style IMO also the guy who wrote the long serious post thinks he was gonna get owned because of clashing serious opinions because he's important or something and his thoughts matter and doesn't realize he's just harshing the buzz of posting ugly guitars, what a circus clown

Light, sits super comfortably with a strap, sounds good. Get one and play it standing up because thats how you should practice anyway.

FenderŪ wines are produced with the same attentiveness and consistency as each of our historic instruments. Grown on hillsides throughout the Sonoma region of California, this 2012 vintage produced a collection of ripe, juicy wines that speak to the level of quality, prestige and character for which Fender instruments are known. Like our classic guitars and the sonic formulas from which they're born, each of these distinguished wines affirms that some things truly get better with age.

one of the few upsides of the fact gen x/millenials will have on average far less wealth than their parents is nobody's going to be marketing a line of wines to people who buy 7 string universes to match their kikwear pipes

 Not outlandishly ugly, just dumb and stupid. On the left is some kind of home made rough chiseled strat copy with poo poo brown paint that I rescued from a Salvation Army store. You could actually get a splinter playing it. Two of the pickups work. On the right is a 90s Lotus mini strat copy with broken head nut so you can't put the low string on it. It has only one whammy spring in the back making the strings extra loose for tuneless skronking. They both are playable I dunno, I'm a drummer.
