Repost from old thread.
What do you guys do when you run out of ideas to finish a song? I'm feeling frustrated, as I feel so close. Spent the last day programming drums, and except for the verse background, I fucking hate them. How the hell do I get over hating my own stuff to improve?
How do you finish what you hate?

There were some that overheated and burst into flames, so buyer beware. A Laney Cub would be a good choice.
I absolutely adore the wizard prestige neck on my RG1570, but I can't stand the hassle that comes with a floyd rose.
Are there other brands with god tier necks? I was thinking of ordering a Caparison Dellinger II.

Is there anywhere in the UK northwest that has a RIC 4003 in stock that I can go and try out.
I had been GASing for a Strat, a prs S2, or a Ibanez Roadcore but fuck this shit I'm just gonna forget it and actually play the god damn guitar.
Still want a Strat though.
>>65586850
It is fun, The Wave is super comfy and versatile. No one would ever give it a second look because of the name on the headstock though

>>65588238
This guitar is worth more than me guitar, my amp and all my pedals
Vox AV15 or Vox VT20X or Blackstar ID:15TVP?
I need an amp for my house that I share with 5 friends. I want good tonez at a low volume. I will be using pedals, all of which are pre-preamp pedals, none of which are gain based pedals.
Or should I drop the extra $100 and get the big brother of each (AV30, VT40X, ID:15TVP)? A larger speaker always sounds better, but a smaller speaker is less likely to annoy my housemates.
I do not gig or play live or anything. I make guitar based music with VST amp sims and plugins, so while recording options are nice, they arent completely necessary.
Any advice?
>>65588238
>taylor 214ce dlx
If you bone her she might buy you expensive gear for presents.

She's bi which is a huge warning sign but definitely doesn't seem as anxious or crazy anymore. I'll consider it for the pedal presents.

>How the hell do I get over hating my own stuff to improve?
Just keep working on your music in general. Usually when I end up hating a project I give up on it and move to another one. It works well enough
>>65589022
Here's the thing I'm working on.
https://clyp.it/excn20sg
Any feedback on it? Critique just might help. I hate how the drums go during the first part, but I can't come up with anything that sounds more proper. I was looking at a metal ballad kind of vibe.
>>65589246
I don't like how the drums sound right at the beginning, sounds a bit cheesy and fake. During the other parts it sounds a lot more natural. I dig your guitar playing though. Fun riffs. I can totally understand hating it if you've been working on it for a while. Hearing your own music that much gets tiring. I think it sounds pretty good though. Good enough where you could put it down if you're really hating it that much and call it finished for now, unless some other ideas pop in later.
Keep us updated if you change it, or if you get another project started
>>65589404
Any tips on how to de-cheese the drums? I personally think it's the cymbals that are mucking it up.
>>65586773
its the progression of all muscians. owning too much swag
man i have so much shit none of its even good i only play my classical to be honest family
my only advice is hang onto your starter stuff to give to some poor kid down the line
>>65589534
I'm pretty sure it's the cymbals. Maybe try making them come from both channels instead of just the left? Or maybe try a different cymbal sound there entirely. I'm not very good at programming drums so I'm sorry if I'm not too much help
>>65590034
Already experimenting with different beats. Found one that makes the riff sound completely different. I'll post an update when it's fully done, with the solo and all.
suggestions for not muting strings with fretting hand when playing barre chords or chording for that matter
notice the fats of my fingers muting certain strings
I try repositioning but still happens
would taping them help?
>>65584077
Gonna play some Avalanches on that thing?
>>65590805
I sprained two fingers on my fretting hand shortly before getting it, so quite yet. Been nostalgiafagging with some Kansas lately.
Looking for a low cost yet decent sounding tube amp. Want to stay away from brands like Bugera.
The options seem like Panama, Carvin, and Jet City if I want to keep it really cheap.
Or I could spend more and get something like an Egnater, Blackstar, or Fender.
What do?
>>65590450
Looking forward to it bro
>>65592017
You can find second hand Tiny Terrors for £200.
Can I say goodbye to my nut if I decide to put 12's on my guitar?
>>65592858
Actually, just found one for £150 on gumtree. I don't need/want one, but that's so fucking cheap I'm seriously tempted myself.

![digital%20drums[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/3X2IPyD.jpg "digital%20drums[1].jpg")
i'm wondering if i should take up drums as a second instrument, as it seems every single local band seems to be lacking drummers.
would i look like an idiot if i used a digital drumset?
If I put lollars in a classic vibe strat or tele and swapped the electronics, how good would it sound?
seems like a good deal for under $650
What are some good book/resources about brazilian guitar stuff like samba and bossa nova?
>>65593152
dont know much about drums but id start with a traditional drumset. they're already expensive enough.
if you enjoy keeping the beat and smashing things then go for it.
>>65593823
i'd love to have a traditional drum set, but i'm worried about the noise as i practice. (ironic, i know) also, dragging an entire set to and from every gig sounds like a pain in the ass when i can fit a digital one in a little suitcase.
Well fuck.
I took my guitar to long and mcquade after seeing some anons post and now I have no guitar to play while I wait for them to set it up.
For some reason I thought they would set it up on the spot, but I guess that would've been stupid for them.
I've never felt this bored.
>>65593914
No one will take you seriously with a digital kit unless you're ready to drop at least $3000 on a high end Roland.
Get an acoustic kit. If you're in an apartment, use mute pads. If you live in a house, wear earplugs if you're that worried about the noise.
Drums and cymbals are really light compared to guitar gear, and moving a 4 or 5 piece kit is actually really painless. Every drummer ever has made it work, and so can you if you're serious about drumming.
>>65593940
newfag here
what exactly does "set it up" mean?
tuning//cleaning/restringing?
Let's get our own board for instruments and production :^)
http://www.strawpoll.me/10458554
I have $30 to buy an expression pedal, i don't mind buying used.
Any suggestions?
>>65594229
sadly, i dont think there'd be enough traffic.
what do y'all think of this bad boy?
>>65594207
It's when they (usually) change the strings on your electric guitar and the adjust the intonation (by adjusting the truss rod and saddles on the bridge). This keeps your guitar in tune all the way down the neck when you fret a note.
>>65594229
shit idea.
/prod/ and /gg/ are usually always up anyway
>>65594207
Yeah, and in this case includes testing/cleaning of electronics, setting intonation, and more.
Setting up a guitar is just adjusting it so it plays the way you want, in short.
>>65594240
Save up some more.
>>65594229
I want this, but it should not be for all hobbies thats way too fucking broad. Should just be instruments/production like you said.
>>65594253
Maybe, but it would pick up over time and stop anime posters
>>65594305
I realize this now, I was just thinking too broadly like you said, it should just be instrument and production
>>65585832
Looks great dude. Is the chassis all wood?
Also what did you use for the power thing?
Also, first for anime. Pic related would play a danelectro DC 59'.
>>65594319
i was literally about to say
>what anime posters?
then this happened>>65594397
>>65594293
/prod/ and /gg/ are also shitty as fuck so...
>>65594445
>implying a shiny new board wouldn't grow equally shitty in a matter of weeks
>>65594552
If it doesn't work, we could always just abandon ship and come back to /mu/
>>65594644
this. these threads are getting stale. even if it was a painfully slow board, i think that the posting quality would improve.
HELP.
Just bought TU-3. I have a small clone and holy grail on my board. I think they both require 500mA.
I just bought the PCS-20A adapter to daisy chain straight from the tuner. Will this send power to all of the pedals or do I just return the PCS-20A?
>>65594712
A general for pedals would be very nice
>>65594734
How are you powering the tuner?
If it's a 9v addaptor in the tuner should should be fine daisy chaining it to your other pedals
I don't have any pedals, what are some essentials I should get?
>>65594827
Yeah would be nice to split up amp guitar and cable discussion
>>65594734
I doubt that they require that much mA, but you should be fine. I advise you to save up for an actual power supply if you get more pedals, because Daisy chains cause alot of extra noise and some tone suck
>>65594839
powering with 9v
>>65594856
Depends on what genre you play but you can't go wrong with an overdrive. Some essentials would probably be a phaser, overdrive, wah, and delay
>>65588459
my gf is bi and as a result we've had a threesome with a hot girl who will probably be joining us again at some point soon
trust me: it's worth it
>>65594856
What style of music are you playing? What's your current rig?
>>65594930
Just buy a 9v adaptor, you'll save a lot of money in the long run.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2gomvsOn5j4
Intronaut shilling Mesa Boogie amps. Anyone familiar with the instrument brands?
>>65594930
Snark SA-1 adapter is how i power it
>>65594968
I power it with the 9v adapter. Are you sure thats fine? I have it daisy chained normally but if I do it from the tuner then that's extra space for me
>>65594944
>>65594932
my current gig is a cheap squier strat and a really bad amp, i like playing pretty much everything but want a thicker, darker sound to my guitar, do I need better gear for this or should I just buy a better guitar? also a good reverb pedal to hide my mistakes
>>65594971
https://dunableguitars.com/
One of the guys in the band owns the company apparently
>>65595087
Some squire strats can play very nice with a good setup, but having a good amp is imperative honestly. Get a holy grail if you want a decent reverb pedal
>>65595181
holy shit
must be nice growing up in the LA music mafia
>>65593152
There's nothing wrong with a digital drum set. Easier to transport, no changing heads, can make them sound like whatever you want.
>>65594240
Save up and get the wylde wah.
>>65594893
9v 500mA center negative is standard boss adapter. I used to buy them at radioshack for like $8. They had a bunch different amps/volts, and a bin of tips so you could use them for anything. Put the tip in backwards, center becomes negative. The only problem now is finding radioshacks
Anyone use one of those boomerang pedals? Is it like an overpriced gimmick or worth $200 more than any other looper?
>>65593152
They have a very different feel from a traditional set. they feel more like practice pads since they're rubber. if you're going to be learning drums just as a side thing, it's fine. if you're going to get serious with it, i recommend getting a real set
So my friend let me have his Whammy IV because he "lost the power supply years ago and never bothered to get a new one." So I ordered a replacement.
https://amzn.com/B00RM1PEYW
I got it today and it powers up but there is no signal coming through. If there is it is very very quiet. It also produces some annoying feedback/buzz. But this only happens when I run out of the wet output. Dry output is fine.
I saw that this power supply is actually 1A while the stock whammy iv power supply is 1.3A. Could that be the issue? Is it possible it's just a bad output?
please help
Should I start learning lead blues guitar lessons by justinguitar even though I have an classical guitar. My bends dont sustain for shit, I'll probably have to skip all the bending stuff
>>65598405

>yfw programming drums because you're too poor to buy a drum set
>>65589644
what classical guitar do you have?
>>65598405
clearly those lessons aren't suited for you. learn songs you like and scales/technique
or if you wanna learn blues guitar get a steel string or an electric
>>65598491
what's keeping you from working with a drummer? autism?
>>65586956
But, it's not true anon.

While the picture is up, there it is. The guitar of my dreams. Same anon here, i love this strat and a couple days of trying out the 5-way, i decided to swap it for an old school 3-way switch. Now the second sentence is a true statement.
All i need now is a good small tube amp
>>65593940

Use YouTube and do your own set up. It will save $ and time in the long run.
>>65598345
Could be the power supply but i dont think so if it works fine from 1 output not the other.
I found this. Maybe it will help:
WHAT IS THE RESET AND PEDAL CALIBRATION FOR THE WHAMMY 4?
Disconnect power.
Press and hold the silver footswitch.
Connect power.
Wait until the light blinks several times.
Let go of footswitch.
Move the pedal all the way through it's full range of motion.
Press and release the silver footswitch again.
>>65585671
Check out the Yamaha THR series, great little amps
>>65599093
Do it yourself. It isn't hard, there's videos and shit on the internet that can help. What are you worried about? Making the frets buzz or messing up electronics?
So I'm seeking a great metal guitar in the 400ish CAD range. I'll be mainly playing Hardcore/Powerviolence/Beatdown Slam shit. Think like Nails, Knocked Loose and Backtrack.
Any suggestions? Been looking into the new Jackson JS32 Dinkys for 2015. Owned an Ibanez RG prestige a few years back and really didn't enjoy it.
Thanks in advance!
>>65600476
Do the jackson. I was seriously about to order one like 10 mins ago, but my wife convinced me to order parts for her truck first instead. So, I'll probably get it next week. Also, Nails is great. Have you heard the new album?
>>65600582
Yea I'm thinking the JS32 Natural Oil. Played in at my local L&M but it had an H SS setup. Played amazingly & yes the new album is an absolute onslaught, beautiful sonic onslaught
>>65600739
I'm prob getting white. My other guitars are black.
>>65600739
What's your local long and mcquade?
>>65600739
Those js32s look like a killer deal. My RG420 (>>65584126) already has wear on the pu ring. It's really weird, the color is just fading off. Only had it a couple months.
>>65601021
Peterborough Ontario m8. Here's a picture of the guitar if anyone knows the model number. Its exactly like the JS32s just HSS. Can't find any info, ignore me in the picture it's all I have.

>>65601612
You're suggesting it's environmental then?
>>65601098
Other in the market for the jackson anon here, also have an RG. Older tho, like 2002. Also paint issues. Lots of chips on the edges, and I'm pretty gentle with all my guitars. The biggest surprise is the paint is wearing on then side where it rests on my leg when sitting. Like it's buffed off
>>65601612
Has a point
>>65601692
That's odd, Prestige model? Because I owned a Prestige RG and the paint was the last of my concerns

There's really no pretending that you're not ugly. It's just a fact at this point. I feel sorry for you but thats just life, move on.
But your poor taste in clothes and guitars doesn't help.

You think I haven't accepted that a long time ago? High confidence and great people skills really get you a long way though. But yea I'll be going back to get the exact model number, just surprised I honestly can't find any info on it & yea just need a guitar for hardcore.

i really like Jays playing when he does solos or lead fills but the chord progressions in his songs arent as catchy or entertaining as Tys, i wish they made a collaboration together before he died. I think you both are forgeting about Papa John Dwyer though, that man is a beast. i also appreciate the discussion of garage rock goin on
fun fact: i was kicked out of a Ty Segall concert last year, wasn't too bad i only missed Goodbye Bread and The Singer, they didnt do an encore too
Which of these setups would you prefer? Assuming you are doing a mix of live performance, and streaming audio to your PC.
I am moving from acoustic to electric and know nothing about gear. I want to get some gnarly effects (like Loveless), and am not sure that digital effects could pull that off.
I posted this before but you guys were arguing about samefags or tripfags or both but, i play alot of Surf and Garage rock and i want an amp that can do both and im looking at a Deluxe reverb RI with pedals, a hot rod deville or deluxe preferably 2x12, 4x10 or 1x12, a Fender Super Sonic 60 head, and a Fender Bassman 1959' reissue. im leaning towards the Bassman more because of the style and its influence on early surf rock, plus when it gets cranked the dirty tone sounds amazing but i dont know if the reissue can do the same. Im also more interested in it because a guy is selling his locallly for $650 since hes moving away. Will the 4x10 configuration be durable enough for fuzz pedals? Finally does the Super Sonic 60s Bassman channel sound similar?
Here's what I know for ACOUSTIC:
Orchestra - undeniably well balanced
Grand Auditorium - resonates well because of its frequency range
Dreadnought - loud and bassy
Here's what I feel:
Orchestra - quite small in my hands, but good
Grand Auditorium - reverberates well, quite comfortable
Dreadnought - just not for me, but I learned a really difficult song on one
Brands I'm willing to purchase: Furch, Taylor and Martin. I've tried Tanglewood, Freshman, Faith (cheap but made well), Cole Clark (Australian made, READ: different) and McIlroy (shit's expensive, yo). I haven't tried any Gibsons but if it's a jumbo sized body, I'm pretty sure I won't find it comfortable.
So my question to you, /mu/, once I get an acoustic guitar, will I really NEED a pickup? Or will putting the guitar's soundhole next to a mic be enough, for simple recordings and small venue performances?

Why not do both stereo mic and line out to your audio interface?
>>65605622
second one obviously

I recorded with the setup picture below and it worked well.

Wouldnt that be redundant?
Im going to buy my first amp, I have the following two questions:
>What wattage should I get? I plan to practice, play live, and record.
>Should I get a combo or just a head?
I plan to play hot, overdriven post-punk. And also do experimental music with lots of analog pedals.

Egnater tweaker
>>65605800
All-rounders = Blackstar HT Club 40, Vox AC15, Laney VC30 112
Fender = Blues Jr or Supersonic 22
Marshall = DSL40C or 1974x
These amps are all single speakers for easy transport. 212s will break your back.
I chose a Fender Custom Deluxe Reverb, pic related.
>>65605800
definitely a Hot Rod Deluxe, 40watts, 1x12, can take pedals well and are around $350-$400
