Guitars & Bass

[plain vine]

and the bridge. I haven't seen a guitar use that style of bridge

[lethal fractal]

It's a trem

Hard to see bad lighting

[plain vine]

I only just saw that 😄 . I just saw the cylinder peieces

[lethal fractal]

Yea fine tuners.
No locking nut/ the new graphtec nut though which is strange

And it being a baritone.
Doesn't really seem very functional for long

[plain vine]

and a 0 fret

[lethal fractal]

Good wall decoration

People say locking tuners are just fine but it's BS I've had guitars setup like that they work and are solid but not the best.
I can't tell if it's a floating or 2 point should look at the specs.

Holy fuck

I mean nice trems I do like that style of trem setup but you do lose tuning stability

[plain vine]

I just like locking tuners because it's quick to change out the strings

[lethal fractal]

Yes only good thing about them.
I like the look of winded strings, why I didn't replace my strat tuners 😆

[plain vine]

Fair

[lethal fractal]

Thr new graphtec nuts for floating trems are super cool

[lethal fractal]

Neat thing

[plain vine]

I've never seen these. They sound cool but it looks pretty lame appearance wise...

[lethal fractal]

I hate locking nuts, so anything looks better to me 🤣

You know what's the best? Headless

[plain vine]

Nah, I think headstocks can look cool, until you knock them against against something by accident

[lethal fractal]

It's just less shit to worry about get to put more effort into other stuff.

[wind mauve]

yea if I see a hardcore band get up on stage with headless guitars I know we ain’t moshing

[lethal fractal]

They can look awesome just

[lethal fractal]

What about the aristides 9 string headless?

[wind mauve]

if you get up there with a strandberg you better lay down some fuckin LTE riffs or better

[lethal fractal]

With a kickass paint job and inlay work?

[wind mauve]

or stop wasting my time

[wind mauve]

if I see a hardcore band with a 9 string i will be one confused little rabbit that’s for damn sure

[lethal fractal]

I thought you said deathcore

I'm stupid

[smoky widget]

Headless guitars are baller

[wind mauve]

tbf if I see a deathcore band with a nine string they’re gonna have to work twice as hard to convince me

[smoky widget]

My next buy is gonna be a headless 8 string

[lethal fractal]

As they should

[lethal fractal]

Good

[wind mauve]

y’all ain’t Glass Cloud or Danza

so you gotta prove something to me with a nine

[lethal fractal]

For me it's less stuff to worry about and can out more effort into a good paint job and inlay work

[lethal fractal]

I was good a jazz on my 9 string that was it lmao.
Writing good metal riffs is hard af

[wind mauve]

lionheart had a cool fate themed headless

they also make the fuckin

LED nightmares for berried alive tho

[lethal fractal]

Sign me up for "The fukin"

[wind mauve]

so swag points removed for that

[lethal fractal]

Yess

[wind mauve]

[lethal fractal]

My dad's arguing about the CEO shooting arrest being fake hehe

[wind mauve]

is that a guitar

[lethal fractal]

I mean the whole situation is getting played like one

[wind mauve]

Yes

Now he's arguing about money haha

[serene pine]

it works

[plain vine]

Yo, I got a real Marshall amp for Christmas 😆

[lethal fractal]

Sweeet

[trim briar]

So im typically a bassist buuuut

[plain vine]

Cool guitar

That couch had me confused. I thought fish eye lens, but it doesn't look like that and my brain stopped working.

[vague grail]

Didnt practice for weeks and now I feel guilty

[plain vine]

As someone who also hasn't been practicing to well recently, I feel you... I pick up the guitar, start noodling, put guitar down, no actual practice has been achieved lol

[vague grail]

Exactly

blaming the winter months (cause why blame myself jkjk)

[wispy flint]

https://open.spotify.com/track/7smNaQqvOskAdSkdlgpxb2?si=6cb336e3b0f94e15

can someone tell me the tuning here

drop b?

[plain vine]

My hands are terrible in winter. To practice I run them under hot water for a bit otherwise they're too stiff.

[vague grail]

According to chat GPT its drop b

[wispy flint]

hey look at me

how does it know that

i literally couldnt find that anywhere

[vague grail]

holyshit, same

I only practice e standard cause I am a poser

[plain vine]

Nothing wrong with e standard. Almost all the classic thrash stuff is written in e standard

[wispy flint]

no

if it isnt drop c you're a filthy poser

/j

[plain vine]

But playing around with drop tunings like drop d is so fun

[vague grail]

(scared to tune it down, the anxiety of strings giving up you know)

[wispy flint]

drop d is what a lot of metalcore is played in

and drop c, naturally, but drop d is insanely popular too i noticed

[plain vine]

and even tuning all stings down so you're in d standard can instantly make the guitar sound different (and you can then play gojira riffs)

[wispy flint]

lowest ive gone is drop g lol

[vague grail]

Ngl I dont mind e-standard since I am at the very very very basic, so there is no need yet

(learning base chords-level)

[wispy flint]

the stuff i wanna play is usually in drop tuning so im almost never in e standard

[vague grail]

Going to get a second guitar for drop tuning eventually

when I am a bit through the very basic though

[plain vine]

No need to be scared, unless the strings are really old and worn, tuning down just a little bit (like drop d or d standard) will be fine. But you might not be able to get super low without strings getting to floppy because I assume the strings you're using for e standard are pretty light (because that's what's typically used for e standard).

[vague grail]

regular slinky

[wispy flint]

gauges are what determines what you can tune right, like arent bigger gauges better for lower tunings

do correct me if im wrong

im still fresh to guitar myself

[vague grail]

not planning on taking it very serious anytime soon until I feel like it

just fun and dumb stuff

[plain vine]

If it's just dropping from e standard to drop d for example, a second guitar is unnecessary because you only change the tuning of 1 string (although, more guitars = more fun right?) but if you wanted one for e standard and one for drop b or lower then 2 guitars would be useful. Also useful if one of them has a floyd rose, because that would just be a pain everytime you go to change tunings.

[vague grail]

https://www.justinguitar.com/classes/beginner-guitar-course-grade-one - need to run again through these videos because I am very sure my muscle memory left to Narnia

(I dont have any muscle memory to begin with lmao)

[plain vine]

Yeah, drop d or d standard is as low as I'd go with those. I use a hybrid set on mine which has light unwound strings and slightly thicker wound strings which is great for drop tuning (10-52) and going to drop c still feels a little to floppy for me but is playable.

But low tunings isn't everything

[vague grail]

Found a guitar that I wanted to get from my first adult-job-money to find out its nowhere available in this country

Messing around with AMP-sounds >>>>

[plain vine]

Damn... If you can, I recommend going into a guitar store and trying before you buy when it comes to guitars and amps, etc. Sometimes a guitar can have great specs and seem like the dream machine but when it's in your hands and you play it, might not be as good as you hoped it would be (or sometimes it feels so good that it makes you seal the deal).

[vague grail]

It just looks pretty

[plain vine]

Which one is it?

[vague grail]

Ibanez Gio GRX70QA Violet

I just like purples

[plain vine]

Ooh, that is a pretty guitar

Purple guitars do always look cool

[vague grail]

by the time I am able to get a pretty one I hopefully am somehow a bit more capable

just a tiny bit

[plain vine]

My best advice (as someone at intermediate level playing), is to just keep playing everyday. Even if it's just noodling and not proper practice, picking it up and playing stuff just keeps the fingers nimble and builds up a bit of muscle memory playing around with your major and minor scales.
Although it's best to have some proper practice, like if you play for an hour, make the first half hour proper practice (learning a song, chords, scales, etc) and the 2nd half can just be whatever (playing an easier song, noodling, etc).

[vague grail]

Picking up chords goes fairly smooth (not easy, just a smooth learning curve), but when just trying to understand scales a LITTLE bit (like them to warm up) it feels like going back to math class

[plain vine]

Fair. If you're not already when it comes to scales, Just learn the A minor pentatonic scale and the C major pentatonic scale... These 2 are relative scales so when you learn them, meaning that they use the same notes but one is a major scale and the other is a minor scale. Also these are the easiest scales to learn and the shapes (where your fingers go) can just be shifted up or down the fretboard to play in a different key.... I just think specifically A minor and C major are the best to start out because they're in the middle of the fretboard but as I said, shapes are the same.

You'll hear all this stuff about Dorian, Mixolydian, Blues, etc scales and modes but for starting out, major and minor pentatonic are your go to.

[vague grail]

[plain vine]

Also, Sorry for so much writing but I hope you find my advice at least somewhat useful.

[vague grail]

Always

(wont remember it for a long time, but thats a me-problem)

[trim briar]

Grand father and grandson

[trim briar]

She fits right in

[lethal fractal]

Such a strange looking guitar it's really cute

[trim briar]

I love it

[lethal jewel]

Very friedman-ish

[lethal fractal]

Mmm yes

[trim briar]

The Jackson or Gibson?

[lethal fractal]

Jackson

[trim briar]

Ah

[lethal fractal]

Seeing a modernized old school body with the modern headstock is throwing me off haha.

Looks like it shreds really well.

[trim briar]

It shreds amazing, way better than anything else ive played

[lethal fractal]

I bet

[trim briar]

I love songster

[smoky widget]

Okay I’m not even fucking around

I did a string change and they’re still all facing the same way

Yes it’s in tune

[lethal fractal]

What in the fuck happened to your E string

[smoky widget]

We don’t talk about that

[smoky widget]

I’m not perfect at restringing:(

[lethal fractal]

All good, i have done some awful jobs lol.

I just don't want that popping on you.
You should be fine. I also can't tell if it's isn't fucked or not.

[smoky widget]

So far it seems tight but it’s gone out of tune a lot :(

[lethal fractal]

Did it wrap ontop instead of under?

[smoky widget]

I might just focus on 6 string riffs since I don’t like wasting string packs

[smoky widget]

Yeah

I tried pressing down but it didn’t quite catch

[lethal fractal]

You can unwind it and wind it back.
Not the best but will be alot better

[lethal fractal]

Gotta:

#1 Be very close to the tuning peg as long as you can.
#2 hold it down as long as you can well tuning up

[smoky widget]

I tried unwinding to fix it but it almost slipped out so it’s whatever

It only goes out of tune every 10-15 minutes so it’ll just be a little annoying until my next string change

[plain vine]

@candid slate It’s not perfect but this was after only an hour of learning it

It’s from the song Bury the light from the game Dmc5

[candid slate]

Yoo

Based

[lethal fractal]

Is that a razor keyboard?

[plain vine]

Nah, Steelseries

[lethal fractal]

Nice

Nice playing as well

[candid slate]

Must say you're good

[plain vine]

Honestly, when I got it I had no knowledge of computer peripherals

[candid slate]

Ggs

[lethal fractal]

Fair haha

It looks like my razor keyboard my steelseries has smoother keys lol

[plain vine]

But it’s good nonetheless, been several years since I bought it.

[lethal fractal]

For sure, a good keyboard lasts a long ass time

unless you throw it across your room

[plain vine]

Lol

[vague grail]

how to make seem learning easy the unfair way :

[lethal jewel]

Arpeggios from hell attempt lmao

i already cleaned it up a bit but i am too lazy to record

[lethal fractal]

Sweet

[trim briar]

Do jackson single cuts just not have a battery?

[lethal fractal]

This a joke?

[trim briar]

no..

Well I know now, I was having issues with my volume but I have figured it out

[lethal fractal]

Batteries are for active pickups and preamps...
Specific circuits

[lethal fractal]

What was up with that? Bad wiring?

[trim briar]

My amp was just being funky for my guitar but not anything else

[lethal fractal]

Ya that's strange

And ya most guitars don't have batteries

[trim briar]

Interesting I thought that was just a normal thing because my experience with guitars has been Ibanez basses

[lethal fractal]

Many new basses have an board preamps many basses don't have batteries either

[trim briar]

Well good to know thank you

[lethal fractal]

Does your other single cut have a battery?

[trim briar]

Its not mine so I havent opened it up

[lethal fractal]

Fair enough

[crisp swan]

I love to do that, didn't know others did it too

[lethal fractal]

It's amazing

[crisp swan]

Have you ever done double pinch harmonic slides?

So pinch harmonic two strings at the same time and slide

Sounds like daft punk-ish

[lethal fractal]

When i first was learning PH yea but I got no use for them so don't do them ever.

[trim briar]

Speaking of harmonics:

[lethal fractal]

What dah fuck

[trim briar]

My thoughts exactly looking at that

[lethal fractal]

I mean that's possible in a really annoying way

Use your picking hand to plat the 17th fret harmonic have your fretting hand over the 5th fret then play the 17th and use another finger to pluck the other string

[plain vine]

I’m confused?

[smoky widget]

He’s confused

[crisp swan]

you sure that's not just to get the right sound in the tab software?

[lethal jewel]

search on youtube how to play that song

someone prob will tell you how to do it

[trim briar]

I figured it out, two different guitars the tab is scuffed

[balmy vortex]

ESP

[primal parrot]

🤨

[balmy vortex]

that bass isnt finished yet, its just a spec and wood selection and a placeholder

theyre trying to get sales going even when the specs arent done yet

[primal parrot]

Idk looks normal on the actual website

[balmy vortex]

looks liek thomann is suffering from a technical skill issue

[primal parrot]

common german L

[balmy vortex]

ikr

[crisp swan]

How do you find the balance between having a very nice riff, but also leaving enough room for other parts?

I have a pretty nice riff but I don't want to change it (too) much. But it's a bit busy

[lethal fractal]

Leave space with the other instruments

Have that riff be a center point if you like it that much

[trim briar]

What I do as a bassist & guitarist is simplify the riff, be it cut out notes or change them to one more commonly used in the riff

[broken yew]

I bought the Tim Henson amp

[lethal fractal]

God damn that tone is so warm but keeps the highs so well.

Sweet playing thats nice

[broken yew]

I love this amp already lmao

It's on the brinstar lead preset, multivoicer on D# minor with the closed 7th chords. Using neck pickup

[lethal fractal]

It's amazing, I'm assuming you are talking the NDSP amp...
I just didn't have a use for the effects besides messing around with.

Really really good tones though

[broken yew]

I bought it because of the project that I'm working on, I need some goofy ass tones

[lethal fractal]

Eb minor

The chords are so intriguing and you got some flavourful little noodles in between it's great.

[lethal fractal]

Oh for sure

Can not go wrong with that plugin

[broken yew]

It helps that it's set to a key signature and not just intervals

[lethal fractal]

How music should be

[visual phoenix]

Was trying to learn a song and i'm a bit confused by this part, do i have to hammer on from the fifth to the eight fret but at the same time hammer on the sixth freth and that pull off, 8th-6th-5th?

[wispy flint]

wouldnt that just be hammer on the 8th fret, then pull off to 6th and pull off to 5th?

[visual phoenix]

I think you are right, i think i just overcomplicated it:)) thanks for the answer

[wind mauve]

isn’t that just a tapping part

[crisp swan]

@lethal fractal I did it

Changed the riff to have some more space, and it's even better now

[lethal fractal]

Amazing

[lethal jewel]

@lethal fractal got involuntary Doppelgänger to 75% speed

[lethal fractal]

Sweet, full play through?

[lethal jewel]

Yesss

[lethal fractal]

Amazing

[bitter yew]

any recommendations for a cheap floorboard that works with neural dsp

i just wanna switch tones without moving my mouse and keyboard in songs

[balmy vortex]

Time for you to learn midi automation

[bitter yew]

nope

[bitter yew]

so which one do u recommend cause im not spending 1k on a quad cortex

[lethal fractal]

A midi controller

Thats what greed was talking about

[bitter yew]

I have one

wait i can use it for neural dsp?

and put it on the floor?

its an akai mpk mini

@lethal fractal

[lethal fractal]

I wouldn't... You'd want a foot swith one so you can just program the pedals.

You probably could with that controller just I wouldn't want to be an organist and guitarist at the same.

Depends how many tones you are using... I also misread what greed said that's something a bit different, not my realm. I don't dabble in automation much...

But for just tones you can route them to a midi board and use it as a pedal board.
I've never done it plenty of YT videos and have friends who do it.
I know it's doable.

[bitter yew]

thanks

[balmy vortex]

Not even

[lethal fractal]

For my example go route them to pedals no?

[balmy vortex]

You can automate everything of the plug-in to midi and let it ask work straight in the daw no midi controller needed

[lethal fractal]

[lethal fractal]

Yummy

[plain vine]

Are you part of a band or make music or something, because if not you should be. Always playing so clean and precise.

[lethal jewel]

I dont know any people that like the same stuff i do so i am not in a band but i am currently working on a song

[plain vine]

Epic

If you go to concerts, you can often find people who play instruments/do vocals and if they're at the same concert as you, there's a decent chance they'll like that style of music.

[lethal jewel]

Yeah i was at a concert yesterday and i heard a guy play drums after the concert and damn he was good

[plain vine]

Who played at the concert?

[lethal jewel]

Oh some local random bands lmao

[plain vine]

Fair enough... One day you'll be up there (:

And I'll need to go and watch you play

[smoky widget]

I think a lot of talent is unfortunately not seen just from a lack of connections

Especially in a small(ish) scene like metal

Like he said, probably talking to people at concerts is the best approach

[lethal jewel]

Oh yeah i made a lot of connections to people and i got some offers to play in bands but idk i wouldnt like to be playing black metal

@lethal fractal deleted the previous riff heres what i got so far

[lethal fractal]

Well done that's awesome

[lethal jewel]

Yeah now i need to smooth out the tranisitions and i’ll probably have the instrumental finished by the end of the week hopefully

Then i will write some lyrics with my friend

record vocals

send it to my other friend so he would mix it

and done

[smoky widget]

Transition sounds exactly like Involuntary Doppelgänger lmao

[lethal jewel]

which one?

[grand wolf]

Can someone take a listen to what I'm working on?

[lethal fractal]

Looking forward to that

[lethal fractal]

Sure

[devout echo]

Bet

[sage pelican]

Mmmmmmm

[grand wolf]

Supposed to be a doom ish style similar to Sabbath but like idk basic like walk

[sage pelican]

Potential

[devout echo]

Kinda sounds like a korn intro

Like im waiting for the low tuned guitars and drums to kick in

[grand wolf]

Inspo comes from this mfer

Here give me a sec

Gonna do what I want for an intro small thing then main riff

[devout echo]

Oh nice

[devout echo]

It has potential

[grand wolf]

Needs drums maybe better quality and lyrics

Kinda thinking

The very beginning

[smoky widget]

Is that the fella from Impending Annihilation

[wispy flint]

is that like

impending doom x infant annihilator

idk why that was my first thought lol

[lethal fractal]

Yea

[smoky widget]

I <3 them and Viraemia

Goated sounds fr

[lethal jewel]

Oh yeah kinda ripped it off lmao

[smoky widget]

Ripping off song parts is fun

[lethal fractal]

You sure did hahah

[lethal jewel]

Yeah but tomorrow i will make some crucial changes that will make it sound better

but i will make a hardcore-ish breakdown

[lethal fractal]

Nice

[lethal jewel]

i have no idea what i can do instead of this neoclassical part but i will figure something out

but i am done for now

i will maybe change something later

making music is hard af ngl

[plain vine]

That sounds cool but is it good to have those drums constantly clipping?

[lethal jewel]

let me cook the drums will be fixed

[balmy vortex]

it really is, especially alone

[lethal jewel]

especially is when i cant play what i write lmao

[balmy vortex]

[lethal fractal]

This is always the hardest thing haha

[lethal jewel]

But i got almost 3 minutes of the song

and now i am debating if i should add a one minute solo

[lethal fractal]

3 minute solo

[lethal jewel]

hell yeah

[lethal fractal]

Gotta be at least half the song or else no nerd is gonna listen

[lethal jewel]

goofy ahh callout @lethal fractal

[lethal fractal]

Sweet

[lethal jewel]

but how do i come out of a breakdown to another part of the song

[lethal fractal]

I usaly just use pretty clean chords...

[lethal jewel]

ohhhh

i will try it

[lethal fractal]

Use them for a bit then you can build back up into a chorus or something

[lethal fractal]

Or you can build up to the solo

[lethal jewel]

yeah i thought of that

[lethal fractal]

Nice

[balmy vortex]

Lead sound on the Nano cortex is great

[balmy vortex]

I’m glad I’m getting more comfortable with lead playing

[lethal fractal]

Man can we switch i need to get better at lead

[balmy vortex]

nuh uh

im glad i did all that rhythm stuff, but i need more lead practice

[lethal fractal]

When i play lead j tend to play the same note on different strings

[balmy vortex]

i've gotten the hang of it more thanks to listening to a lot of brandon ellis solo's and rafael trujilo solo's

[lethal fractal]

I'll have to check them out more.

[balmy vortex]

you should

[lethal fractal]

I should probably practice by just playing solos and not trying to play solos over tracks lmao

[balmy vortex]

yes you should

[lethal fractal]

😆

[lethal jewel]

Lol i am shit at rhythm but better at lead

[balmy vortex]

Go learn tbdm rhythm sections

[lethal jewel]

Rn i am just grinding archspire

[lethal jewel]

i need to learn alternate picking and economy picking first

[lethal fractal]

You downpick all your lead stuff?

[lethal jewel]

Nah but i need to get better at it

it lacks a lot

Poured all my skillpoints into sweeping

[lethal fractal]

Fair enough

[lethal fractal]

Sweep picking is just bigger motion of alternating picking so just sweep pick a single string

[lethal jewel]

i wished it worked like this🙏

[lethal fractal]

Me too but the other way around lmao

[lethal jewel]

nah sweeping is easier than fast alternate picking

[lethal fractal]

Hell nah

If you are string skipping abunch then maybe

[lethal jewel]

idk my alternate picking is pretty uneven

and i have some problems with starting on a upstroke

[lethal fractal]

I just don't like how my sweeping sounds doesn't sound clean enough

[lethal fractal]

Yea economy picking helps with this a lot

Setting up so you can work with downstrokes moren

[lethal jewel]

but i dont have time to practice

i spent the whole day recording

[toxic wharf]

Just ommit upstrokes and do hammer ons from nowhere

And yes, sweeping is easier than alternate picking everything with the right velocity

[lethal jewel]

hell nah

[toxic wharf]

You dont wanna be a god like Tosin?

[lethal jewel]

Everyone has a different technique to playing fast stuff

some people do hammer-ons from nowhere and some pick everything

[gleaming wing]

Weirdly enough I taught myself to alternate pick before I even knew what alternate picking was

[lethal jewel]

me too it just came naturally

but if i want to play some complicated stuff i need to practice

[lethal jewel]

@lethal fractal so thats what i got i need to fix the drums a bit and write another solo then re-record one riff and do vocals

getting really close tho

[lethal fractal]

Hell ya, just turn down the drums and tiny bit and you are set

[lethal jewel]

Yeah i know

i will give it some finishing touches

and i will send it to my friend to mix it

[lethal fractal]

Nice

[lethal jewel]

also for the intro i will rip off mozart’s 40th symphony lmao

[smoky widget]

Archspire type shit

[lethal fractal]

Nice

[balmy vortex]

Amps yo

[wind mauve]

it's amplifying

[lethal fractal]

No

[wind mauve]

isn't that what they do tho

[lethal fractal]

If that's what you want them to do

[wind mauve]

generally speaking yes

[lethal jewel]

@lethal fractal tommorow i will finish instrumental

i only got some drum fills to do

spice up the bass a little and then re-record the solo and i am done

making a song in three days is not an easy task lmao

[lethal fractal]

Hell ya, looking forward to the final mix

[primal parrot]

not very metalcore but this is from my wip demo ep

[lethal jewel]

yoooo cool af

[primal parrot]

thx dude🙏

[lethal jewel]

will you be adding some vocals?

[primal parrot]

yeah but i think ill leave this (intro/first chorus) without vocals and then introduce them second time around

[lethal jewel]

@lethal fractal its really close to being done

[lethal fractal]

Sounds really good

[lethal jewel]

thanks man its my first song lmao

[lethal fractal]

Nice! It's great for a first

[lethal jewel]

I will def do some crabcore next lmao

[lethal fractal]

Hell ya

[toxic wharf]

Alien Sounds

[graceful socket]

Super Mario ahh sound

(also very impressive)

[lethal fractal]

Now play some rings of Saturn

[toxic wharf]

Nah I have a skill issue 💀

[trim briar]

We love down tuning a six string to A

[toxic wharf]

This is the E standard an octave lower

(I need an 8 string guitar)

[trim briar]

Nahhh

[robust hatch]

Something dummer to make me feel better please https://youtu.be/XqlZqazG6sQ?si=QgGtfJYJ_7woKGNj

[lethal jewel]

its worth it🙏

[broken yew]

I am After The Burial

[trim briar]

I need Jackson to just release this already

It will he a day one for me

Im hoping they release in white as well ngl

[toxic wharf]

What kind of guitar do you have?

Jackson or Harley Benton?

Ibanez?

[trim briar]

Looks like an Ibanez based on the logo and tip of the headstock

[lethal fractal]

Yea it's an ibby

[broken yew]

Yeah Ibanez

[little valley]

my dad got his first guitar today, but tomorrow he has to go on a work trip. While hes gone im gonna steal it and junt like theres no tomorrow

[storm mulch]

Hey yall quick question I don’t know where I can take this intro part and I’m asking for a lil bit of advice on what I could experiment with

This is sadly the best video and it’s just a sloppy performance

In the meantime I’m gonna just see if I can do a sleeping with sirens verse type thing

[proud fern]

christmas came late

[smoky widget]

Assuming you're going for a metalcore sound, I think a slow clean verse would sound good after that followed by a pre-chorus/chorus

[storm mulch]

Will definitely try that out thanks

[smoky widget]

No problem, I understand how annoying it is not know how to finish an idea lol

[raven bone]

i like something unexpected, maybe add something that surprise everyone?

[storm mulch]

I can’t really think of anything surprising that I can do

Tho I will take that into heavy consideration

[raven bone]

maybe on post production? like adding cat sound?

[storm mulch]

Yknow

That would be really fitting and funny

[wintry nova]

My jackson 7 string finally arrived today 🔥🔥🔥

[toxic wharf]

Sick

[smoky widget]

?

[storm mulch]

Our band actually has a cat in our logo

So it would kinda fit

And update I don’t have anything all I need is some way to transition to a verse😭

And still no luck

Like with anything for it

[smoky widget]

I'm think of a transition like the one in All That Remains - Six at 1:30

https://open.spotify.com/track/3WRTADbL0criwvX6IQFex2?si=201ae47a195144bb

Kind of a pause and then a clean verse with slow drums

[wintry nova]

Fr, but it’s just gonna need sum new strings tho cuz most if not all stock guitar strings suck donkey ass

[toxic wharf]

True

[near forge]

Shreddy holly

[lethal fractal]

[storm mulch]

[lethal fractal]

I need some new thigh highs

[smoky widget]

Fellas

My midterm for my guitar class is to play Tramp to a Chainsaw by Thy Art is Murder and I kind of got the hardest part down yesterday

[lethal jewel]

Hell yeah

[toxic wharf]

Sick

At the end of this month I will be performing on behalf of the music school, I will play the voice of the soul from death

I hope I don't fail

[smoky widget]

That’s so sick

Good luck with that, I hope I can play some kind of metal for my school next year

[toxic wharf]

Thanks ✨

I hope it works out for you too.

[smoky widget]

Thanks

My main problem is finding songs that don’t have ridiculously inappropriate lyrics lmao

[dense eagle]

just got my first 8 string, not the greatest its a harley benton but it should do the job for me

[wind mauve]

now you can play acacia strain

[lethal jewel]

go with archspire pol

lol

[lethal jewel]

hell yeah

[smoky widget]

That’s the second problem, all of the appropriate songs are hard as shit

[smoky widget]

Looks sick

[lethal jewel]

Damn

Maybe suicide silence

you only live once

pretty positive message

[smoky widget]

My top contender right now is Distant - False Gods

Easy and heavy as fuck

[lethal jewel]

Hell yeahk

luv some distant

[toxic wharf]

Tell me later how you like it, I don't know whether it's worth buying or not.

[lethal fractal]

Shred

[crisp swan]

Could someone help me figure out where to place the original track in my daw and which BPM (I think it's 125) for Slipknot - If Rain is what you want

I want to cover it but if I go by one section, the other doesn't feel like it lines up

[smoky widget]

Could be that you have the tempo off by 1 or 2 bpm

Or a tempo change could happen at some point, I don’t really know the song

Or maybe they’re not using a click track and human error either drags or rushes as the song progresses

[crisp swan]

one of my guesses is also that it's a fade in

or something

there are some pauses in between too

[smoky widget]

Beautiful solo❤️‍🔥

[nimble jungle]

Currently geeking out over my tone on the Gojira X

it isnt even somthing super special i just love it

[mossy pewter]

Any tips for a beginner guitarist?

[lethal fractal]

Practice and play everything with a metronome

Learn your scales basic music theory...

[mossy pewter]

Thanks

[graceful socket]

I second the metronome

[lethal fractal]

https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLH6FqIGn1pTZ_IWEf9v95aUmqh_2XPZ_f&si=6a1WRM1lUXrUFJbX

Master each one of these vidoes

[graceful socket]

When I started I skipped the metronome, now here I am. I may be able to technically play a bunch of highly technical riffs, but none of them 100% in time

Dont be like me

Dont half ass it

[lethal fractal]

^^^

[graceful socket]

Anything you try to skip and make easy will come back and bite you in the ass threefold

[lethal fractal]

Me too lmao I always practiced other instruments to a metronome but got lazy with guitar

[graceful socket]

It feels like a chore

And will be annoying

But it's invaluable, because if you cant play in time, you might just as well not be able to play at all

[dense eagle]

anyone able to help me out getting a decent tone, trying to cover let me burn and low tuning just sounds like a rumbling mess for me
for reference heres what its like now

[lethal fractal]

Depends what gear you have...

[dense eagle]

i use a behringer umc202hd and guitar rig 7

[toxic wharf]

Aristides guitars cooking

[plain vine]

More money you spend on gear, better you get at guitar.

[graceful socket]

I feel obligated to add that this is a joke (but yes, some gear does really help)

[lethal jewel]

Practice what u like

[hoary vector]

use credit cards to buy tons of gear

oh just saw guy above said the same thing. follow his advice spend more money

[lethal fractal]

What if you're to dog shit to practice what you like.
Like me?

The things I would to do be able to play plini and intervals songs

Lot alone the tech death BS I love.

[trim briar]

Practice fret progression and degression as well as string progression and degression

[lethal fractal]

Fret progression and depression?
Is that how much you press down and what not?

[trim briar]

Even as a bassist this helps alot, and another thing find a posture you find most comfortable playing in, just pick an open string until you find a good position

[lethal fractal]

Just never heard it called that

[trim briar]

No its scaling

So going up and down the frets as well as going up and down strings

[lethal fractal]

So playing scales on single strings vs multiple strings?

Just not computing with me probably over thinking something lol

[trim briar]

More like

Low E. 4 3 2 1
A. 1 2 3 4
D. 4 3 2 1
G. 1 2 3 4
B. 4 3 2 1
High E. 1 2 3 4

And then do the opposite going back to the low E

You’re low E is the closest to you and you High E is furthest

Its stupid bit makes sense kinda

[lethal fractal]

That sorta shit ya... Then you can start doing like different strings same pattern i have sweep patterns like that from petrucci

[trim briar]

Scales seem really stupid (im guilty of not learning them) but dont make the same mistake I made

Fuck the pentatonic scale but its a really good scale to know to help you navigate the fretboard

[dense eagle]

so far its great, trying to get a good tone but thats a software issue
aside from that i absolutely love it was definitely worth it

[raven bone]

CAGED system is a must learn!

[lethal fractal]

https://youtu.be/mEdWX1zJ4Hw?si=BPK-Bw_fFOxWDVbq

I'm not a fan of the caged system really don't like it

It's a good foundation but has its limits

[plain vine]

I just use power chords, much easier than caged

[lethal fractal]

I don't think I've played a power chord in a few months

[plain vine]

Then you need to play more powerful songs lol :p

[lethal fractal]

Probably

[raven bone]

yeah, agreed with all of you,
the most important things is, "it sounds good"

[abstract leaf]

i need music

got a college interview and i need to play a song

idk what

help

preferably in e standard because we love the floyd rose

[graceful socket]

E Standard....now that's a tuning I havent heard in years

[abstract leaf]

yea haha

not something ultra heavy either cause i dont wanna scare them

[lethal jewel]

Some Jason Becker maybe?

[abstract leaf]

maybe, anyspecific?

[lethal jewel]

Perpetual burn is fun

Alitutdes too

[abstract leaf]

ill have a listen and get back

ok so im not that good just yet

ive been playing for jus about 2 years still learning sweeping and stuff

[graceful socket]

I understand but at the same time I was just thinking, why not go drop d and use a pitch shifter to open up some options? Floyd Rose would still work but you're not confined to the one tuning

[abstract leaf]

im broke i got no pitch shifter lmao

i lit only got guitar, amp and a dist/overdrive pedal

[graceful socket]

ah, physical, okay

if u were on ampsims already that wouldnt be the issue

but with physical gear that makes it harder....

[abstract leaf]

yea not just yet i need one of them physical pluggins

[graceful socket]

that´s not too bad, my thought was to just get the 14 day trial to NDSP Gojira or something. Got a pitch shifter integrated, trial period long enough to get familiar with it....

[toxic wharf]

If you could put the guitar down D standard I would recommend something from Death

[graceful socket]

but if you´ve got no digital setup to begin with that idea is out the window

[abstract leaf]

i could do symbolic

just play it in e instead cause this guitar is a pain even tho i love it

[toxic wharf]

Or for example Voice of the soul
Very beautiful and not difficult song

I'm learningit now and I'll be performing it in 3 weeks.

[toxic wharf]

Strange

[abstract leaf]

i havent heard that icl

[toxic wharf]

I also have Floyd Rose and I put my guitar in F# lol

[abstract leaf]

send a vid when you do

as in like octave below or higher then e?

[toxic wharf]

Below

[abstract leaf]

6 string?

[toxic wharf]

Yep

[abstract leaf]

god damn what gauge you got on it

[toxic wharf]

But usually I play C# Standart

[toxic wharf]

76 or something like that

Ernie ball Mammoth

[abstract leaf]

im on 9s

[primal parrot]

love pop music

[dense eagle]

finally sorted the tone issue, turns out i had the sample rate way too high 🤦‍♀️

sounds beautiful now

[lethal fractal]

Ghat definitely will do it

[smoky widget]

That sounds really depressing

Play some slam

[wise shadow]

i want to paint my guitar to either dark purple /dark red/white

[smoky widget]

I recommend water colors for paint jobs

And use creayons for little details if you want

[balmy vortex]

how much work do you wanna do?

cuz itll eat hours

[wise shadow]

wdym

only the finish

[balmy vortex]

it is a lot more work than you expect

cuz youll have to sand down the original finish, then primer it 2-3 layers, base coat it 3-4 layers and then clear coat it 2-3 layers sanding in between with something like 400 grit sandpaper

[hoary vector]

lots of drying

[bitter yew]

logic pro or studio one guys?

[graceful socket]

Reaper 🗣️

(I´m biased ,only ever used Reaper)

[bitter yew]

ABSOLUTELY NOT

LMFAO

"still evaluating"

[lethal jewel]

cubase

but reaper is solid too

[lethal fractal]

Studio one

It's a lot more friendly

[toxic wharf]

Same

[lethal fractal]

I've been using one for a few years after using reaper, FL, logic and Cubase... By far my favorite for more instrumental work.

I'd rather try to make a song with a toaster and a fork then work with logic ever again.

I still dabble in FL for any heavy midi work just because I'm used to it

[bitter yew]

ok thanks, i have both i just dont know which one is better so ill take ur opinion

[lethal fractal]

Studio one was designed by abunch of musicians and what not to perform and work in the mind of a musician.
Biggest thing is how straight forward stuff is.
If you have a plugin you want on a channel you just drag and drop it rather then messing around in drop down menus trying to find the plugin..

[toxic wharf]

Are you making a guitar?

[lethal jewel]

yeah i started making one like 1.5 year ago

but i stopped for a while

and now i have some time to work on that

[toxic wharf]

Damn I want to make my own guitar too good luck with that✨

[lethal fractal]

Thats a cool shape

I wanna make one but to lazy and to expensive

[lethal jewel]

stole it from kiesel lol

[lethal fractal]

Nice

Get some stabilized wood

[lethal jewel]

already got some

[lethal fractal]

Great

How much was that?

It's dumb expensive here...

[lethal jewel]

I mean i got it for free cause my dad makes furniture

[lethal fractal]

Well that's perfect

[toxic wharf]

I do carpentry too lol but I wouldn't trust myself with that kind of work 💀
My hands are too crooked

But I think that one day I will try to make a guitar

[lethal fractal]

I mostly work with metal 😆

[toxic wharf]

Nice

[lethal fractal]

Only wood I really work with is a wide variety of tool handles although will be building a shed from scratch in a few years.
(Cutting my own lumber kinda from scratch)

[toxic wharf]

I regret that I went to study for this profession.

[lethal fractal]

It's a great project

[toxic wharf]

I definitely won't go to work there after graduation

I'll find something else

[lethal fractal]

Fair enough, it's a good life skill at least working with wood knowing how to fix stuff makes life a lot cheaper as well

[toxic wharf]

Still can't fix my relationships and bank account 😔

[lethal fractal]

Go cut down a tree and just make birds and shit sell em like $10-$100 free materials turned into shit just takes time...

It's a great gig with leftover woods and stuff as well.

People will buy absolutely anything

[toxic wharf]

I was joking
But in general I think I would try making custom guitars, but that requires experience

[lethal fractal]

It's a fun gig can be hard to get into

Cool tuning

[lethal jewel]

nice guitar ngl

[lethal fractal]

That to haha

[toxic wharf]

Biblically accurate guitar

[lethal jewel]

i think its a true temperment frets or sum like that

[balmy vortex]

It ain’t it’s microtonal

[lethal jewel]

Love sum microtonal

[lethal fractal]

@balmy vortex this just arrived in the mail

[balmy vortex]

Play dient on it

[lethal fractal]

Sure thing

I wish I could keep it.
It's in for repairs

[balmy vortex]

I just changed the pup on my Ltd

‘‘Twas very neccesary

[lethal fractal]

Hell ya

Thats not good

[balmy vortex]

Oh god no

[lethal fractal]

Hopefully that didn't happen in shipping

Well shit I just played a note and a string broke

Gonna be a bitch to fix this

Oh fuck me

The pickup was rebuilt in 97 as well

The fretboard is also falling off

Beautiful guitar 70+ years old but man not taken care of

[toxic wharf]

Sad

[lethal fractal]

Bringing it into the shop next week to start working on it and starting the diagnosis of all the issues besides my quick look over.
Will be a long repair

[balmy vortex]

Eventually some of the riff

[ebon relic]

this song fucking hurts to play lmao

maybe I'm too used to drop tuning power chords

[balmy vortex]

@lethal jewel when?

[lethal jewel]

YOOO

thats a nice one

how much?

[balmy vortex]

I’m guessing around 6k probably

Same for these two

[toxic wharf]

I LOVE PURPLE

[balmy vortex]

And they’re not flame maple btw

This is a flames sparkle look a like called glitter storm

[toxic wharf]

It's a pity it's not 8 strings or baritone

[balmy vortex]

We can get them in those specs

[toxic wharf]

Sick

[balmy vortex]

Not cheap tho

Esp Stephen carpenter 8 single hum baritone in that finish will probably be close to 9k

Maybe a lil less

[lethal jewel]

😭😭😭

[balmy vortex]

[toxic wharf]

cries student tears

[balmy vortex]

laughs in having a custom guitar during student days
Skill issue

[toxic wharf]

Well, never mind, I'll promote the band, become rich and popular and definitely buy it (I hope)

[toxic wharf]

I'm thinking about buying a Jackson Soloist

[balmy vortex]

Grab a concept series

[toxic wharf]

Are they 8 strings?

[balmy vortex]

Uuuhhhhhh

There is a dinky concept series 8 string

[lethal jewel]

Id rather make my own atp

[toxic wharf]

2 times more expensive than Jackson Soloist💀

[balmy vortex]

I don’t remember Jackson making a soloist 8 either

[toxic wharf]

Here

[balmy vortex]

Is it bolt on?

[toxic wharf]

I think so

[balmy vortex]

According to thomann no

If it’s bolt on it’s a dinky

Neck thru is soloist

[toxic wharf]

So it's even better

[balmy vortex]

Not necessarily

[balmy vortex]

As long as it can get setup well, it’s fine

[toxic wharf]

I was also thinking about Ibanez but I'm not sure yet.

[balmy vortex]

Which is also one of the first thing a you’ll have to do or get done when you get the guitar

[lethal jewel]

I have this one lol

[balmy vortex]

Nice

[toxic wharf]

I play an 8 string guitar down an octave💀

6*

[balmy vortex]

I usually say grab a 7 tbh and change to some decent strings

But don’t go too thick cuz that’ll cause other problems

[toxic wharf]

Yeah... That's how I ripped Floyd Rose out of my guitar.

[balmy vortex]

Smh my head

[toxic wharf]

But they replaced it under warranty and I didn’t use 76 gauge strings anymore.

[balmy vortex]

Don’t use 76 gauge anyway

[toxic wharf]

I definitely won't use it on a 6-string guitar anymore lol

[balmy vortex]

You better

[toxic wharf]

But I still definitely want an 8-string guitar, I'm going to save up for it now

Or some huge 30 inch baritone

So that i can lower the guitar to drop C# standard an octave lower

[balmy vortex]

Do not

[toxic wharf]

Why?

[balmy vortex]

It’s about as unusable as it gets

Same for C# octave down

[toxic wharf]

But I'm already playing in this tuning 🤡

[balmy vortex]

And how high is your gain?

[toxic wharf]

Although most of the Songs I write in the E standard an octave lower

[balmy vortex]

If it’s even past 11 o clock you’re mix is gonna sound muddy af

[toxic wharf]

I can't say now, I'm not at the PC

[balmy vortex]

Making anything in those tunings requires some extreme fine tuning of your mix and sound cuz it’s extremely easy to make it sound muddy

[lethal jewel]

yeah def

you also need a very clear and tight tone

[toxic wharf]

Here is a demo in e standard without mixing (I have problems with it)

[balmy vortex]

Lower the gain

Step one

[lethal jewel]

thats what i was gonna say

most modern metal tones are not high gain

[balmy vortex]

Indeed

[lethal jewel]

I love a tight not gainy tone

Used one when i was making my song

[balmy vortex]

This is why i use a lot of presets from Mendel

[toxic wharf]

I'll eat now and try it.

[lethal jewel]

I only have gojira x rn

i will use it for live performances

love the transpose function

[toxic wharf]

I have everything I want

[balmy vortex]

[crisp swan]

nice

Is that pink guitar yours?

[balmy vortex]

It’s from the store I work for

[crisp swan]

Oooo

It does look awesome

[balmy vortex]

It do

[lethal jewel]

In Poland there are no such guitars in stores

[balmy vortex]

I know

[lethal jewel]

i wish they were tho

i only got some harley bentons and squiers lol

[balmy vortex]

That’s why you order from me

[lethal jewel]

this one looks mad good

[balmy vortex]

Oh it is

[lethal jewel]

looks very sweepy

[balmy vortex]

100%

[lethal jewel]

A guy i know recently bought an expensive esp

it looks so nice

[lethal jewel]

this but 8 string

hell yeah

[balmy vortex]

Can do

Stephen carpenter 8 original series in that finish

That’s to not make it expensive af

[lethal jewel]

6k euros in poland is like 25000 polish złoty lol

i am not saving that up 🗣️🗣️🗣️

[balmy vortex]

[lethal jewel]

maybe one day🙏

[balmy vortex]

or as i like to say.

Soon™️

[lethal jewel]

i wish lol

no way i am making that much in near future

[toxic wharf]

Bruh

Just got home

I think I'll set the tone another time

[smoky widget]

Cat

[lethal fractal]

Play an octave

How in tune is it lol?

[smoky widget]

I already left the store

I imagine it's pretty well tuned considering the sounds are preprogrammed

[lethal fractal]

Oh thought you bought it lol

[smoky widget]

Nah I was just fucking around at Target

[lethal fractal]

Fair haha

[hoary vector]

target reinspired beyblade hobby for me💀

[wind mauve]

any tips on how to play this tab

[lethal fractal]

Thats not a tab?

[wind mauve]

well that certainly helps

these didn't look like numbers

[lethal fractal]

No that's called Sheet Music ✨
Gotta know the notes and where they are on the fretboard haha.

[wind mauve]

what note is this

[lethal fractal]

Thats abunch of notes... Which one you talking about?

[wind mauve]

i don't even fucking know at this point man

[lethal fractal]

[wind mauve]

is the bpm allowed to be recursive or is that just this song

[lethal fractal]

Thats tempo and yes it can do that

[wind mauve]

ok is the time signature allowed to do that

[lethal fractal]

255/255 is the same as 1/1

[wind mauve]

ok none of this explains the tempo being a sine equation

or pi being defined as 120bpm in the third measure of the first bar which is entirely rest beats at an increasing volume

[lethal fractal]

The highest note there is an A FYI

[wind mauve]

i don't think my guitar is tuned to that

[lethal fractal]

It can hit that

[wind mauve]

if you're certain

[lethal fractal]

What you tuned to?

[wind mauve]

drop g

7

[lethal fractal]

I sure as shit wouldn't attempt it on guitar but if you want to go ahead

[wind mauve]

what is a harpischord if not a big guitar

also what is a sousaphone i've been trying to figure that out since the first time i watched this

about an hour ago

[lethal fractal]

Bruh

Harpsichord is like a piano

[wind mauve]

pianos are stringed instruments

[lethal fractal]

Sousaphone is like a tuba most people get them confused because they don't know ass about instrument history

[lethal fractal]

Yes

[wind mauve]

big

guitar

[lethal fractal]

Nah

[wind mauve]

that explains why the first measure is crescendoing silence on a sousaphone i suppose

[lethal fractal]

Sousaphone just straight up goes around the person used more in marching bands then anything nowadays but even then marching tubas are a thing

[hoary vector]

any of u tried the laney 212 frfr cab? im thinking of getting a frfr cab to pair with fm9

originally was gonna go for mesa 212 with poweramp but im not sure

[lethal fractal]

Probably my favorite band that uses a sousaphone

As a fan of single cuts I love that WA-WARBIRD

Not a fan of those bursts though

I’ve always found them ugly

[balmy vortex]

Sweeet

[balmy vortex]

Yes

[trim briar]

Looks nice ngl, reminds me of my Jackson Monarkh

[trim briar]

💀

[balmy vortex]

It’s a very special sparkle tbh

[trim briar]

Most guitar shapes I can live with but I’ve never hated a guitar shape more than this one

[balmy vortex]

[balmy vortex]

[lethal jewel]

[balmy vortex]

[trim briar]

Looks like barbie puked on it

[lethal fractal]

Whaaaa?

[lethal jewel]

i mean the part with string skipping i kinda play like economy picking

shits hard

I have no idea how dean plays it live

[trim briar]

Would it be redundant to get the literal same guitar that I already have in a different colour?

Cuz I have a Jackson Monarkh SC in purple burst but also like it in frost white

[toxic wharf]

Guys, tell me some good 9 string guitars in the budget 1000$
