can someone rec me a new guitar amp that doesnt sound like shit for 400 bucks
Reposting from last thread
Need some opinions here. I went to record some bass a couple weeks ago at a studio and the guy had one of these pedals. I played on it a bit but never got a chance to mess with the knobs on it. Anyways from the time I used it it sounded great but I looked it up that they are about $200.
Any other bass players have this thing? It sounds awesome but is it worth the money?
>>60779931
Depends on what you want to do with it in the first place. The bass driver is sort of a package deal.
>Preamp
>DI
>Overdrive
>2 band EQ (bass/treble)
If you don't want at least two of these things, perhaps look elsewhere. If you want to know whether or not it's a good purchase, I can assure you that it is. Seems to be the most common recommendation on the internet along with the much more expensive B7K
>>60779892
i play the can of rocks. thinking of upgrading to the maracas. any recs?
metal4lief
>>60779965
>can't count
fuck me mate
>>60780098
Yeah I already have the ampeg svt 400 head but a preamp would be nice. Plus the overdrive pedal I have just isn't doing for me. (Boss odb-3).
I mean I really don't need the pedal but I always like new toys to play with. Thanks for the input though
>>60780187
Check out the bass soul food if you can. I opted for that instead of the bass driver and I don't regret my purchase.
>>60780061
I got mine for $110, it's solid. I've heard good things about the vtbass di, would have rather got one of those but I couldn't find one used.
RATE MY RIG/10, ignore the orange head thats just there because theres no where else to put it
Im new to gigging be gentle
>>60780061
I had it, and what >>60780098 features he laid out for it were right though it does have mid controlling to it if you adjust the other EQs back
>>60780187
>>60780249
The VT Bass DI, it's definitely a better option to get, I upgraded to that after having the regular bass driver however >>60780217 brings up another great option for less if you are looking for a boost or overdrive BUT NOT if you want a preamp. I would say the VT Bass DI is the best option if you want a preamp/recording device/overdrive if you can't get an actual SVT
>>60780187
boss pedals are fuggin garbo m80
>>60780482
Trace Elliot stuff is pretty nice, and P basses are always rad, nice rig dude
>>60780652
I agree about current boss stuff except for their tuners and delay pedals right now. Older boss stuff can be rad
>>60780618
hey it's double precision guy again
>>60780696
Ones for shows and recordings, other is for rehearsals, saves string life very well (the white one hasn't been restrung for two months and has only had a few hours of play on it, so the strings are still super fresh sounding, and never restring the sunburst one)
>>60780750
mate you've told us everything already except what brand/flavor of mint is sitting on that SVT
>>60780800
hey it's moan about people posting the same shit over and over again in a thread that's made over and over again guy, again, cry more

>>60781165
the bassist from Ghost BC has a mint green P bass with two split coil pickups and it looks pretty great
can't find footage right now though he used it for one song in the entire split and I don't remember which song sadly
>>60781370
I've seen some instruments that look ok in mint, just not my bag
I'm debating between a gretsch hollow body and a rickenbacker 360
can anyone help me decide?
>>60780061
There is no replacement for a 300W all tube Ampeg SVT. Just sayin.
>>60780249
>>60780618
Thanks for the responses. so the consensus would be to go for the vt over the bass driver? What are the differences between the two? Other than just saying "it's better"
>>60781439
Go play them.
how did you guys learn guitar?
>>60781439
The ric is a professional quality american made guitar. Other than a couple of custom shop models (the eddie cochran one, maybe a couple others) the gretsch stuff is made in asia. Some are ok. Some are total dogs.
>>60781641
It's got a better control layout with the mids adjustable and sounds a lot closer to an SVT in both EQ and in gain structure
>>60781625
That's true though their are some things that sound equally as good in a different way (Super Bassman 300 on the OD channel, Ampeg V4B if you don't need a ton of volume or headroom, and an Orange AD200B come to mind)
>>60781439
Not really all that similar, you should try to narrow down what sound you want first
>>60781641
Also I meant to say that I have a svt 4-pro head with the svt410 half cab.
>>60781732
The 4-Pro is close to an SVT in sound already, so pairing it with a VT Bass DI should sound really good
>>60781713
>similar, you should try to narrow down what sound you want f
I play a lot of noise pop/experimental stuff like JAMC, primal scream, slowdive, cocteau twins, etc
I love the sound of rickenbackers, but I've always wanted a hollow body too, so i'm kinda torn between them, as different as they are
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wTvkO3fE6sk
can someone help me with the lead guitar notes played in the first 15 secs. There is a delay on the lead that puts me off.

>>60783463
I was trying to be clever by saying I don't need any pedals because the bass tone is so good it's all I need. Sorry senpai I don't have any secret weapon pedals
>>60783490
I like it a lot. It feels good, smooth. Looks sexy. And it rarely goes out of tune besides little tweeks you. But it's preference. I played one before I bought my own at a local guitar center. I suggest you try to play one yourself to see how you like it.
>>60780061
>I went to record some bass a couple weeks ago at a studio and the guy had one of these pedals.
Do people just record shit in studios without being charged for it?
I went to a studio a couple of weeks ago, it was more like a practice space for music students, and there was a band there recording stuff and I went around to look at guitars and play some piano in one of the rooms downstairs.
>>60780875
Absolutely hate them.

>the back of that fucking neck mayn
>>60785170
Mine would be a customized explorer
24 frets, medium jumbo
Modern fender style neck
Hockey stick head stock
27" scale
Neck through body
Natural finish dark wood for the outer wings with a matching head stock, a small strip of slightly lighter wood in between the 3 blocks for the body, so 5 pieces altogether.
Fretboard matching the 2 strips
Basic fixed bridge
HH, 2 volume 2 tone
Maybe locking tuners
Black TUSQ nut
Haven't decided pickups, probably some basic sds with medium high output in the bridge and medium output in the neck
hardware color is tough, silver might be too bright, gold might work well because it'll be a darker guitar but it may also look tacky, black may not work well. It'll depend on the wood used. If I could find brass that might be nice, but it'll tarnish quickly with how much I'll be touching it.

>>60783418
Honestly, if you haven't played one yourself yet I really recommend it. They're certainly not bad, but the pickups are pretty grunty and honestly? Compared to a lot of other semi-hollows this fucker seems like it weighs a ton. The profile and frets are pretty solid for what it is, but whenever I jam out on my friend's, I'll sometimes lose where I'm at in the upper frets, probably because I'm a bland-ass Fender whore lol
>>60785170
A vintage 1959 Jazzmaster or a block n' bound Electric XII is about all I could ask for really. What I love about the XII is especially its bridge. The most amazing 12-string bridge anyone could get, IMO

i've been gigging without a formal board for, well, pretty much as long as i've been gigging. i toss all my pedals on the ground and generally ignore them because most are set and forget tone colorizers. i don't have a huge collection though so i do understand why a lot of people feel the need for them
>>60786220

What is the difference between thinline teles and just regular ones?
>>60787319
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fender_Telecaster_Thinline
>>60787319
thinlines are semi hollow
Who are your favourite modern guitarists?
I really like Mac DeMarco's stuff, that guy can really play
>>60783253
One of these is mounted inside my rack. Not much secret about a TS pedal though, pretty much everyone has one.
>>60787844
Define modern.
>>60787158
I mean, yeah, that's probably true, but when you've lived with the OG version, and then try anything else, it fucks with you. Though, I do recommend you put some sort of roller bridge if you want the best out of your vibrato, though I guess that would go with ANY guitar with that kind of setup.
>>60783670
How's that Tele acoustic?
>>60787319
Depends on what kind of thinlines you're talking about m8. A normal one well, yeah, it's just a semi-hollow tele, but it's lighter!
72 Deluxe thinlines are essentially the same, but with two humbuckers. (Or P-90's if you decide to get the modern player one)
Looking to buy an acoustic guitar under $300, thinking of getting the Yamaha FG730S. Is the better guitar for my price range?
>>60780875
Here's my ZT3. It's got a steep learning curve, but it's fucking incredible.
>>60781625
I know a guy who uses an SVT with one of those. Now that's a dream tone.
>>60780061
Definitely worth, I'd get the rack version myself.
>>60788341
>steep learning curve
wut. how so?
>>60783490
I love graphite necks, so much smoother.
>>60788265
telecasters are for queers, semihollows are for nancy boys, and humbuckers are for sloppy vaginas. if you play one of those you might as well be elton john. without the talent, obviously
>>60788404
There's very little info on this model online, and setting up the Transtrem can be an absolute nightmare at times. Lack of spare parts is also a constant fear, in case you break something. Plays like an absolute dream though.
please rate this jamsession my friends and tell me how i could improve for next session
http://vocaroo.com/i/s0H9oY46sgB4
>>60788454
that sounds more like a pain in the ass than a learning curve but fair enough
>>60786916

>>60788531
Haha, I suppose so. Worth it
Bump
>>60788445
So, in general
>Tele's, Semi-Hollow ANYTHINGS, and humbuckers are garbage
Then what the fuck do you play? A vanilla Strat? A Les Paul with P-90's? I mean, not trash talk them, because those can be genuinely nice. but like, you can only get so many sounds man, and that's coming from a person who LOVES single coils
>>60789393
Good lord that's awful.
>>60786916
already have several but nice try
>>60783576
Yeah, it's a great pedal. The guys at JHS took the original circuitry schematics from the Klon and implanted them in the Soul Food. Plus they added an adjustable bass knob for more bottom end control.

>>60786980
that's what I currently do for band practice. I mostly feel the need to have a board because it saves time. Carting around a backpack full of cables and pedals doesn't make sense for a gig and it also makes me extra nervous about having something get lost or stolen.

No, just add some flavour to your playing. There were times you went out of the blues scale, do that more.

I get compliments from other guitar players on my live and my recorded tone but if any of them knew I used this they probably wouldn't say anything.

Was actually really fucking good until 0:50
>>60790145
they're pretty cool guitars and fun for modding. Shame it's impossible to find them as left-handed, not even sure if they exist honestly.
I played one upsidedown and it was pretty sweet, not sure the model, similar to the pic. Neck feel was pretty smooth, similar to old fender mustangs/jaguars if you've played one.
>>60783253
this baby right here (not my pic) - I use it for recording demos at home. When I do live shit I use it for distortion.
>>60780482
Hey dude how is that CR120? does it sound like a fuzzy old Orange or a rockerverb? How loud is it? Good clean pedal platform?
>>60790145
Teisco's and any guitar of that nature is pretty much a hit, or a miss that with enough knowledge and elbow grease, you can actually turn it around. (I'll let you decide on what you think is worth doing) That being said, the noise you can get from those old guitars is pretty fucking sick, but definitely takes a bit of shaping to suit your style.
>>60790366
Damn dude, I totally forgot I bought an rp150 8 years ago when I was a beginner and never really used it. I should find it and dust it off, it could probably come in handy live
>>60785170
with tv jones of course.

>shoegaze poll so far:
100% think shoegaze is the height of faggotry
>djent poll so far:

>accidentally bought electric instead of acoustic guitar strings
put them on my acoustic and it just sounds super trebly and bad. will they start sounding better once they get broken in?
>>60790623
will my dick in your moms ass start to sound better once it gets broken in?
>>60790623
not really. you're better off just getting acoustic ones soon, since the tension may also be different and your guitar may not enjoy having them on.
Saw this was in the Facebook trending section. Anyone see this video? Could sound a helluva lot worse than it does for being cardboard.

I have thick fingers, makes high fret access a little easier. I normally tune c# standard anyways. At 27" I could still get standard tuning with thin enough strings, or b standard with a little less floppies

Dude, stop. You're the same guy that posted in that "shred albums" thread with one of your videos. You're not a terrible guitarist but I can tell you're just stringing scales together: there's nothing especially interesting or musical about it. With the way you're playing, those pentatonic/blues lines are clashing stridently with the diminished and harmonic minor ideas.
Work on your phrasing. Learn to improvise over a proper I-IV-V and work on your modes of the major scale.
3/10
>>60788237
It's actually stratacoustic which is weird because it does look like a Tele. Anyways the action is very high try as I might to adjust it. I haven't tried it plugged but acoustically it sounds okay. Not really worth buying but it was handed down to me
>>60790297
youre gay
faggot!
>>60790297
I enjoyed your shred and the floyd rose part at 0:49 in the djent clyp

>>60791325
are you sure it isn't a telecoustic?
>>60791422
I'd move 7 string guitars to acceptable tier although I'm the famed ERG/ERB hater.
They are only justified if playing with a bass tuned in B though.
>>60791480
They have to be in meme tier though because they fall directly into the broader metal meme
>>60791502
fair enough
>>60791428
You know I was told it was a strat when I got it but you're right it's gotta be a Tele anyways my point about the action remains
>>60791502
What about 7 string jazz boxes?
>>60791663
While jazz isn't necessarily a meme, it is associated with many memes(saxophones, black people, the list goes on) so I think those qualify directly indirectly
>>60786220
what's the string gauges on that baby?
>>60782059
dude you can get that same feedback from semi-hollowbody ricks. 330 and 360 for example
>>60779892

My zoom is dying. Changing from A1 it blinks at me as if to save elsewhere. I mainly use it to tune but am considering a replacement.
>>60791130
why do those genres attract so many haters?
>>60790792
if wood density/composition have no effect on tone why do semihollows sound so different than solidbodies?

Im so happy Radiohead is my favorite band. I open this page and the first thing I see is my Lord. Good job /mu/
i was kinda bored with guitar until i started learning sheet music and learned some classical pieces and had a cool classical guitar instructor. i am loving the fuck out of playing classical pieces. you guys should grab a cheap classical guitar (i got a yamaha c40) and the stanley yates graded repitoire book, learn sheet music, and play some of it. fun as fuck. i love classical now. it is mostly what i listen to besides weird experimental stuff.
am I a fag if I have to live with epiphone LP and Behringer?
>>60791956
they don't, that's why
>>60792039
no, i only play cheap guitars, they do not influence skill. i know people who are way better than me who can shred my epi SG. keep playing cheap shit until you get really good, fuck it. spend your money on booze instead. get some black velvet. maybe some pipe tobacco too.
>>60791964
>98

My bass strings aren't even this thick
>>60790166
Hence why no one likes shred. People hate what reminds them of their inadequacy.
>>60792131
I guess fortunately this is good and people understand its skill and that its not 'KLEEN TOANZ 4 YER STRAT'
>>60791813
u a faggot homo cum-loving tasteless shit who doesn't like God Yorke. Seriously he is literally the best musician of ALL time.
>>60792131
This. You can dump so much money into guitars, there's no limit. You have to stop somewhere and it might as well be at level frets. Tone is subjective, and usually more expensive tones are emulating what was done with cheap/amateur work in the past. Honestly I find many cheaper guitars have more personality. You can do things no high end guitar can do.
>>60792084
This nigga lol
>>60792399
I have a squier strat and honestly it kinda hurts to play the thing but I feel once I have mastered the guitar to a certain higher lever playing with the fancier gear will feel like a massage for me.
>>60792433
Well, I've never liked squires so it's hard for me to comment. Just make sure you set it up right.
>>60792238
They're a D# and a G#, so I'm lower than your bass.
>>60792536
Haha I understand dude. I knew little about electric when I got it but seriously for my level I doubt I can tell a difference other than feel around the neck.
>>60792021
for people who don't want to learn sheet music, classtab.org is a great resource
>>60792911
mother of CSS
I didn't know tablature was sheet music. I did learn note just so I understand how the other plebs read their music boy does it suck balls.
>>60793052
>>60792911
also Thom Yorke said:"If someone lays the notes on a page in front of me, it's meaningless... because to me you can't express the rhythms properly like that. It's a very ineffective way of doing it, so I've never really bothered picking it up."
>>60793137
thom yorke is a fuccboi idk learn to read u lazy faggot......
What do you guys think about the Cort M600? Is it a good budget guitar? And how are Cort guitar's in general?
what are the best pickups on a budget for a P bass? Even interested in MusicMan style pickups
anything under $80
I want a Squier Baritone Jazzmaster big whup.
And more mics!
>>60792238
That's because your bass doesn't need to compensate for having a small scale. String gauges are like vehicles, if they're too big you can bet it's compensating for something small.

Seven string electric guitars have been around for what now, twenty five years?
>>60793137
>>60793347
or just... listen to a recording of the song to get the rhythm? It's not necessary to learn to read music on guitar unless you want to audition for a professional ensemble.
>>60785027

>Capos
Watching Police doc and out of nowhere Andy Summers using a capo... Never say never.
>>60791422
I don't own a capo but if you don't see the functionality of them and think they're just for people who can't barre you need to stop listening to kids on the internet and learn to think logically.
>>60795183
if you ever use a barre chord voicing unironically i will hunt you down and slap some chord inversions into your thick ass head. there is literally no excuse to EVER play a barre chord -- capo or no
>>60795306
sigh
>>60795306
Now that's autism
>>60795486
i'll show you some fucking autism. play that barre chord. i dare you. i fucking double dare you
>>60795536
I think this is a Major?

you fucking simp. you disgust me
>>60795635
So what should I do instead so I can be as good as you?
