it depends on what they play
>>66253738

OBJECTIVE BEST COMING THROUGH

>only two
>guitar/vox

>drums
you can either have a second guitar/vox or the drummer can sing.
>>66253746
Yeah this. Preferably a male & female duo.
>>66253738
>lead guitar
WTF is this, I only know acoustic bass guitar, acoustic guitar, acoustic baritone guitar, guitar, bass guitar and baritone guitar
If all of your members are skilled then this is the true line up.
>Drums
>Bass
>Guitar
>Keyboard/second guitar(ours also does violin)
>any member doubles as vocals, sometimes more than one.
>5 vocals
>session band
>trombone
>double bass
>violin
> Apple Laptop
>>66253738
>two guitarists
self indulgent
Guitar
Bass
Drums
Singer (can also be playing one of the aforementioned instruments)
>keys, two or more
>bass
>drums
the basis of any good band. add some brass for flavor. guitarist optional. other strings super optional.
>Lead Vocalist and Rhythm Guitar
>Vocalist and Bass Guitar
>Lead Guitar

WRONG ALL WRONG

As far as I can tell the optimal stratagem for a modern band is to take a song from a band that is long forgotten, slow it down a bit and that's it really.
>Lead/Rhythm guitar/ Lead vocals
>Rhythm guitar/ Backing vocals
>Bass/ Backing vocals
>Drums/ Backing vocals
Beat that
Pro tip: you can't
>>66253738
>limiting yourself to guitars
why do americans do this?
>>66256184
because it's one of the most versatile and well known instruments to mankind
>>66256210
if anything it would be the fretless guitar
>>66256228
still a guitar though
>>66254870
fuck yeah
i'd kill for a good rock band that had steel guitar
>>66256271
does dire straits count?
>>66255708
2 guitars is literally the perfect amount
>band is more than just one guy farting and screaming into a mic that's hooked up to a loop pedal
>>66256285
dire straights counts on all accounts on accounts of being the best thing you can count
>>66256011
I was thinking more
>>66253738
>rithym
Guys, It should be like this:
>Rhythm Guitar / Lead Vocalist / Keyboardist / Primary Songwriter
>Lead Guitar / Secondary Songwriter / Backing Vocalist
>Bass Guitar / Any other instruments that no one really notices
>Drums
That would be my set up, I'd be the first member listed, obviously.
Bonus points if the lead guitarist is female so we can have doubletracked shoegaze vocals
>Not one person on everything
>>66256755
same thing desu
>>66254979
Sup
>>66256903

>effect guitar, ambience, synths, auxiliary percussion
>drums
>bass guitar, flute
>piano, synths, extra guitar, violin, backing vocals, drumkit
>>66253738
Best jazz line-up:
Alto/tenor sax
trumpet
piano
bass
drums
Can we replace the drummer with a drum machine? Our band was always the 3 of us and we don't want to deal with new people. I guess it would look like shit in videos/concerts.
>>66258571
lots of bands in the 80s did it, i was gonna do this too and did for at least for 6 gigs untill i got a drummer, its works fine
