that's an example of the biggest truism in music: you don't need 20 different options, just 3 good ones

yeah in case you ever want to throw half your strings out of tune i was so busy looking at the bridge, the piezo thing (my guess was optical or midi output, and see the screw holding the cable in place? jesus) and the kill switch I didn't even notice there's no neck pickup a shameful tele White Dog Eggs posted:Also I have just finished the 'design' for this guitar I'm going to build, however I've done it on A2 paper and my camera won't take a decent picture of it, so I'll put it into a CAD plan when I've got a bit of free time. This guitar is going to be stupid.

BetterTasteThnU posted:Is that really it? Like there's no actual 'playing the guitar' reason, it's just for posing? can you think of another reason? edit: if you don't play guitar, the answer is no. the weight of the guitar is supported by your leg (sitting posture) or strap (standing posture) so that both your hands can be relaxed and playing the guitar there is never a reason to hold it by the handle ever ever ever jfc the 80ss sucked mclast fucked around with this message at 07:06 on Jan 16, 2014 |

I know they're supposed to play like butter, but Jesus Christ they look horrible and everyone who uses them either sounds meh (Stanley Clarke) or doesn't sound any different than they did when they were using Fenders (John Paul Jones). Bass players are the worst gearheads out of anyone, and will buy up any poo poo with a $2,000+ price tag. yes it is, and yes bassists are. the custom ones are always this weird faux-naturalistic style too  iostream.h posted:Needs some green to be a proper VistaCruiser tho'. mclast fucked around with this message at 03:06 on Jan 18, 2014 |

drunk asian neighbor posted:Do you play around here? What band are you in if you don't mind me asking (since you already know mine!) heh info on my old band comes with half my life story, so you gotta ask twice. just, big dumb paragraphs everywhere the short answer is, i'm not playing out yet (prepping guitar/vox/writing after having been a bassist in previous bands) but i should have a short set together around the time my cybercaster is ready

drunk asian neighbor posted:I'm asking twice, make with the heh alright man, so i was in The Scatter Gang for about 3 years. it was awesome in some ways, but.. you know that's really where the length of the story is. here's the link, and if any of yall decide to contact the band off that site be sure to say the singer sounds fat, ok? that was recorded in 2011, i'm bass on the first two and guitar on the others we practiced a lot but not well, played a bunch of bars around boston, started renting a house together and disintegrated pretty fast after that. i don't talk to, even the people i still liked after the initial fallout anymore. don't lend money to friends, kids. i started doing covers at open mic nights within a couple weeks, cause i'd only performed as a bassist before, and since the summer i've been writing a little and hammering my voice into something passable. as of.. maybe a month ago i started writing my own material and i'm starting to figure out what i like i recorded this tonight, for the thread https://soundcloud.com/alex-oster/the-message-scratchtrack standard 'it sucks' caveats apply, it's scratchtrack quality with no post whatsoever and the song is only half written, but i'm posting it to show where i'm at - developing a writing style, and with an ok voice with still a lot of bad habits. imo.

White Dog Eggs posted:I get this happen a lot when I show my guitars somewhere. It's always a guy and he's always over 40 and he's usually some sort of doctor/dentist/bank manager who's never played in a band and just noodles away in his office when he gets the chance. These people are horrible because they will fret-wank a guitar for 20 minutes then TALK AND TALK AND TALK about stupid 'tone' bollocks, tell you how awesome your guitars are, get seriously tempted then decide to "think about it because the wife will kill me" then go and buy a loving PRS instead because if it costs twice and much then it must be twice as good, right?? Arrrrrrgghhhhhhh!!! lol man, upsell. whoa, alright. alright.. i don't usually show this piece off, but for your discriminating taste.. i'll be right back. oh this? yeah i could get in trouble for telling you this, but this is the same spec as mick fleetwood's private commission. i signed an nda, really i could get in trouble telling you this. but i can tell you won't be satisfied with anything other than the best.
