Right hand muting is hard already on a 6/7 string on a 9 string it's awful

If I can't find a 9 string guitar in this budget, I'll take an 8 string.

I think my only way of getting a mayo is grinding my way up to get sponsored lol @balmy vortex

balmy vortex

8 strings are also difficult but a little easier. 7’s would be the easiest

Perhaps it's worth looking at the reviews

Btw @lethal jewel there’s some new mayones guitars coming in 6-7 string for about 2500-2900€

lethal jewel

Not that bad of a price for a mayo

balmy vortex

Can’t spill too much of the beans just yet tho

But they’re gonna be specs that I’d favour a lot over the current regular duvells

#

there are none like this in poland

balmy vortex
#

Yes

lethal jewel
#

Idk poland is so un-core

#

barely any people that listen to deathcore, metalcore, crabcore

#

especially in my town

balmy vortex
#

Kekw true

lethal jewel
#

mostly black metal

#

i only met one person with a 6+ strings guitar

#

thats not a good sign

toxic wharf
#

I was able to find a death metal band in Slovakia, now I play there

#

Luckily, I live near the border and can travel to Slovakia without any problems

#

And I want to play core!

balmy vortex
#

From the sounds of myself I’m probably gonna order a Dean Gordon soon

#

Something close to this

toxic wharf
#

Unusual shape

but we got only 10 days to work on it

We will prob go with something easy

like slam

balmy vortex
#

Good fucking luck

lethal jewel

Its doable🙏

#

we made a song in one night lol

balmy vortex
#

You’ll get the main writing done

#

Maybe but then the production side is gonna fuck shit up OMEGALUL

lethal jewel
#

I mean i will start writing riffs before so we can have something at least

lethal jewel
balmy vortex

It’ll be easier with everyone together o know that much

yeah but after 10 days everyone is coming back home

and it will take some time for us to get back together

balmy vortex
#

Also crazy ah gift as your first electric guitar

#

Prestige az2402 is one hell of a guitar as your first

hoary vector
#

Actually tho I will say having a guitar u really like early on also helps motivate u to play more sometimes

balmy vortex
#

Then the guitar is actually easy to play

hoary vector
hoary vector
balmy vortex
#

Damn

balmy vortex
#

We usually aim for 1.25mm on the 12th fret which is a perfect height

hoary vector
#

When I did hybrid 10/9 gauge high e would buzz too much

balmy vortex
#

9-46 is a pretty good set tbh

balmy vortex
hoary vector
#

Only thing I wish is my az had a flatter fretboard. I mean I do have a rg550 and rg565

hoary vector
balmy vortex
#

There’s a bit more happening there than just the strings vibrating more

hoary vector
#

So I'm happy with that tbh

balmy vortex
#

Do you know how to setup a guitar

hoary vector
#

I run 9-46 on my rgs tho

hoary vector
balmy vortex
#

Set the neck relief, action, bridge height, check fret level and more

#

See if the nut is cut correctly

#

If the bridge is in the correct radius as well

hoary vector
#

I realize out of the box when I first got it the neck had quite a bow which I didn't realize till like 1 year after I got it

#

Not a big bow but made it harder to play so I adjusted where it's slightly curved the neck relief

balmy vortex
#

And then there is also how you play that plays a role in how much buzz there is

hoary vector
balmy vortex
#

As long as you don’t audibly hear the buzz through the pickups and through your amp you’re fine tbh

hoary vector
#

But after 10-46 no buzz whatsoever or minimal buzz. Before it buzz really bad when I picked it

#

So I just put 10-46 elixir optiwebs and it was good to go. And switched pickups too

hoary vector
# balmy vortex Nice

Yea it's been my main axe since I started basically so atleast 3 years or so. Tho always hurts my heart when I see there's more scratches😔

balmy vortex
#

From sd distortion to an M6 from Lundgren

hoary vector
#

Dimarzio dreamcatcher bridge. And rainmaker neck soon

#

Well neck pickup is still otw here

lethal jewel
hoary vector
#

I planning to get a j custom next🙏

lethal jewel
#

hell yeah

#

i have no idea what next guitar i will get

#

i’ll probably just stick to making my own guitars

hoary vector
lethal jewel
#

Rn i want a shred machine

#

then maybe i will make an 8 strinf

hoary vector
lethal jewel
#

them esp’s look so nice

hoary vector
#

I just want 1 to have and play sometimes I feel like not having an esp with the ibanez feels missing

lethal jewel
#

i just need more 8 strings lol

hoary vector
#

i want to try an 8 string but i dont see myself playing an 8 too much. mainly ill play my 7 string instead

lethal jewel
#

the change from 6 to 8 strings was brutal

balmy vortex
hoary vector
hoary vector

I think we’ve sold about 7-10 of them in 3 years

That would be a yes

#

What do we think of these strings?

sturdy bloom
trim briar
#

Shit

#

Wrong picture

sturdy bloom
#

lmao all good I wasnt sure if you were asking about the brand or what but thought id put my joke in

trim briar
#

But yeah im looking at .080 stings

sturdy bloom
#

all seriousness im not too sure

#

Ive only just got a bass and its in drop A/standard (5 string)

#

what tuning are you going for?

#

because thatll depend on the guage

trim briar
#

I meant the picture to be for a guitar and im looking at around B

sturdy bloom
#

I mean ive been playing guitar for maybe like 3 years and ernie ball are decent

#

but your looking at bass strings

#

you need guitar strings

trim briar
#

Yeah that was an error on my end

sturdy bloom
#

and thats after trying which I prefer more

#

I feel d'addario if you can spend the money for them feel better to play but ernie balls are decent all rounders and not too expensive

sturdy bloom
#

what guitar do you have/if you know the scale length

trim briar
#

24.75

sturdy bloom
#

right yeah okay

#

I have a 25.5 I think so not too different

#

still to put it in perspective my 25 scale is in drop C and uses 10-52 strings

#

so you do not want 80 guage at all

#

so I reckon a 54 would do, or possibly a 56

#

but im no expert

#

so if really unsure is there any music shops near you they are normally happy to point you the right way

trim briar
#

Would “Not even slinky” work?

sturdy bloom
#

the 12-56?

trim briar
#

Yeah

sturdy bloom
#

yeah they would, although like I ssay im not an expert

#

so it mighht end up being tight

#

like I say I have 10-52 on my charvel and thats in drop C

#

not charvel, ESP LTD other ones in drop D

#

have you treied doing a few google searches theres some information on guages, scale lengths and tension out there

trim briar
#

I have a jackson so I think they’ll fit

sturdy bloom
#

what tuning it is in now

trim briar
#

Its in B rn

sturdy bloom
#

drop B?

trim briar
#

Yeah

sturdy bloom
#

or B standard

#

alright

#

what does it have on rn>

trim briar
#

Im not the first owner so idk

sturdy bloom
#

any way you can contact them

trim briar
#

Nope

sturdy bloom
#

just because like I say im not sure if the 56 will be too thick and have too high tension

trim briar
#

They feel like stock strings tho

sturdy bloom
#

is there any shops near you?

trim briar
#

Nope other than a Guitar Center

sturdy bloom
#

I mean worth a pop in

#

im sure you could ask for advice there

#

maybe even take it in so they can look

#

I mean im from the Uk so we dont have guitar centre but assuming its like most shops here they could help

Brought a new guitar. 2018? Schecter E-1 Standard. Need to set it up and clean it up. Should I paint it and add a second volume for the neck pickup?

balmy vortex
plain vine
# balmy vortex Keep the two knob layout and finish

I seccond keeping the 2 knobs... It might just be that I keep volume on max, but if anything I'd be removing knobs more than adding them. Assuming that's a 3 way switch, if you just don't want the neck pickup playing, switch it so it just doesn't use the neck pickup 🤷‍♂️ .

eager raptor
#

I know its a me problem, but why do the chords sound so shit? Any clue on how to improve?

#

this is default gojira btw

#

I've been struggling far too long

sturdy bloom
eager raptor
#

Its in tune and but it does the same thing with a capo

#

then again, its a cheap capo

sturdy bloom
#
  1. check your gain on your actual interface
  2. check your input gain on the plugin
    they could make the signal muddy
  3. tone and volume on guitar
  4. what guitar is it, the pickups could be making a problem
  5. mess with EQ and see if you can get it clearer
    and last could be technique your using
#

capo wont make a difference

#

I mean it doesnt sound like its that far away from being good

#

it sounds reasonably in tune it just ounds like the tones a bit muddy and unclear

lethal fractal
sturdy bloom
#

possibly through input gain and whatnot

#

and thats from my studio monitors

lethal fractal
sturdy bloom
#

also bear in mind it was an MP3 so already compressed quality

eager raptor
#

I'm trying to test things but

  1. Gain all the way done with the instrument button turned on, if I turn the gain up it will peak in the interface. its a scarlet solo.
lethal fractal
sturdy bloom
#

and wheres your gain set on the actual interface

lethal fractal
sturdy bloom
#

if its too high and your light is turning orange/red that wont help

lethal fractal
sturdy bloom
#

I always have it on

lethal fractal
#

I would if it didn't clip

sturdy bloom
#

but my gain is at about just above 1/4

#

and it sits comfortably at the top of the green

#

perfectly fine for home demos n shit

eager raptor
#

It stays right in the green and never peaks for me

lethal fractal
#

I hit my interface so hard with my strat idk why it's just slamms the interface.
Pollymath pickup doing work

lethal fractal
sturdy bloom
#

sometimes my DAW clips when I use my sim (STL amp Hub)

#

and it takes a while to get it to work nicely sometimes

lethal fractal
eager raptor
#

Its the same story on two different guitars which is why I'm a bit worried about technique. This is an Ibanez RG421QM, and the other one is a epiphone les paul special.

The plugin isn't clipping at all either, its just the default gojira set at 0.0

lethal fractal
#

Play the strings all open don't mute or anything as well

#

Does it sound good?

#

Also is your upload rate decent?

#

It could be to high of a sample rate

sturdy bloom
#

small sidenote was just attacking dimarzio locking straps to two of my guitars, lost one of the spare screws turns out it was just stuck to the pickup magnet on my charvel

lethal fractal
#

Lmao

sturdy bloom
#

attaching*

eager raptor
lethal fractal
#

How about your Daws sample rate and your interfaces?
They all match?

lethal fractal
eager raptor
#

yea, FL just uses your asio, and everything matches.

#

let me turn down my input on gojira

#

-10 zero change

#

other than quiter

#

somehow open sound more like going through a shredder

#

i turn down the gain nothing changes either

#

just farts

sturdy bloom
#

I think he meant make a video

#

to show your technique

#

and rate the setup just got the bass 2 days ago

#

just put the 2 black straps on

sturdy bloom
# eager raptor

can you show us a picture of the amp setup (or digital or whatever), the EQ settings and also the 'cab' mic placement

lethal fractal
sturdy bloom
#

you also have to bear in mind these pre-made tones are made for equipment, guitars and extras that you do not have or use

#

and will be made on more powerful processing systems

#

so when they come pre loaded ready for use theyll always need a tweak

eager raptor
sturdy bloom
#

and depending on your equipment more

#

have you tired turning that EQ off

#

since its just sat flat anyway

#

and is there any boost or distortion or anything in your chain? other than the amp

eager raptor
#

nope all of the extra stuff is off

sturdy bloom
#

have you messed with the bass/mids.and high

eager raptor
#

turned of the eq barely any change.

sturdy bloom
#

maybe even try the presence and depth

#

I mean I know its a different amp sim but I found the same

#

then I made this tone and its a decent one for home use

#

try making a new tone from scratch

#

dont use any pre existing one and see where you get to

eager raptor
#

alright

sturdy bloom
#

even the one I made there that I use the most isnt perfect

#

I made it in about 5 minutes when messing with stuff and just havent needed to sit and carve a proper tone yet

eager raptor
#

It seems like gojira just makes really harsh tones no matter what

sturdy bloom
#

because it doesnt always sound the same tracking through the standalone compared to the DAW

#

also try double tracking if your not over the one track, might help might not

eager raptor
#

I think I'm gonna pick this up later, I'm not making progress and I had stuff I was supposed to do.

#

Sorry yall

sturdy bloom
#

is what it is

#

just do some research

#

see where you get

#

spend some time with it

Idk where to start

# gleaming wing Idk where to start

The sweep in the solo for Death roll by Wage war is not too hard, it goes over 5 stings but it's quite short and your hand kinda just stays in the same spot but the main thing that makes it difficult is that it's played quite fast.

Economy picking is following the picking direction and not following just the up down up down pattern.
It's hybrid picking (using the pick plus your fingers) and sweeping together.

🤷‍♂️, I’m just making random riffs and power chords

For sure it can start hurting your timing especially on triplets and 16th notes at faster tempos so just if you notice it

When I’m practicing songs or techniques I play with a metronome

Which one would you guys recommend more for Neural DSP plugins controlling?

I think you need a quad cortex for that

And a yt ndsp video whats like 5-8 yrs old with the behringer

#

Oh ok

odd coyote
#

What guitar wires and pedals would u guys suggest for like metalcore and Deathcore playing?

balmy vortex
#

Keep the gain down on the amp

#

For cables use any reliable cables like Ernie balls but also have replacements for every cable

odd coyote
#

I got a new cable now yeah

#

Cos I’ve had this shit one for so long

#

I’ll probs order the pedals in Feb some point

Does anyone know what cable is used to plug into the USB port of a marshall code 50?

trim briar

They’re cheap, an Ibanez and a decent mod platform

tardy glacier
#

thats true

#

but sorry i didnt specify the budget more

#

i meant something around like

#

400-900 eur

#

range

trim briar
#

Ah

#

If thats the case the Jackson JS series king V with some pickups and or other upgrades

tardy glacier
#

oh that seems rad ngl, though i must admit i absolutely hate V's 😭

#

at least theyve always been mega uncomfortable to me and not the most aesthetically pleasing

trim briar
#

Alr so whats your favourite cut of guitar?

#

Super strat?

wind mauve
#

my current guitar is the Jackson DKAF7 soloist it’s about $900 CAD new, multi scale, & overall I really enjoy it

tardy glacier
#

most comfortable one imo

tardy glacier
#

what do you guys thinnk about the

#

cort kx507 tho?

trim briar
#

Perhaps the X series Dinky Arch top

wind mauve
#

that’s me

#

don’t ask what I think

tardy glacier
#

LMFAO

wind mauve
trim briar
#

I personally wouldn’t get one because im not a fan of those tops but if that’s your style then thats all you man, go with what you like

tardy glacier
#

oh i see

trim briar
#

Looks like the got good parts though so they probably play like a dream

tardy glacier
#

3 years

#

and im not sure

#

what you mean by the top

#

LMFAO

#

do you mean like

#

the contours?

#

if theyre like flat or rounded out/arched

#

of the body

trim briar
#

Top is referring to the body work like the “paintjob”

tardy glacier
#

ohh

#

i see

#

yea rn looks are like more of a secondary thing im going for when choosing the instrument

#

but i must admit

#

i am in love with

#

this finish

trim briar
#

Its not bad at all

tardy glacier
#

with fishman fluence moderns

#

and locking tuners

trim briar
#

Yeah its got some great parts

tardy glacier
#

yessir

#

the 6 reviews on thomann also say its a great instrument

#

lmao

#

and it has a fairly decently big scale length

#

which is nice on 7strings, no?

trim briar
#

Yes

tardy glacier
#

so far ive found the cort to be the best option in this price range ngl

#

regarding price and specs

wind mauve
#

ok go for that then

trim briar
#

I agree, if you fuck with it then go for it

tardy glacier
#

hell yeah, cheers guys, appreciate the help 🙏

No problem at all, shred on brother

I play an ibanez for my bass and a Jackson SC Monarkh for guitar

thats rad

#

never really got behind jacksons or ibanezes personally

#

though i did cop my friend's old ibanez gio strat for 50 eur

#

💀

#

and it has a very nice thin neck

trim briar
#

Yeah, the cheaper end Ibanez’s can either have the thinest fuckin neck or the fattest

tardy glacier
#

LMAO

#

literally

#

the thinner the better ngl

#

🔥

trim briar
#

I agree

#

I love my Jackson because of how thin the neck is

#

This is her

tardy glacier
#

love the finish

trim briar
#

Yeah the purple burst is crazy, and the seamline in the middle aintbthat visible

tardy glacier
#

foreal

#

cool headstock as well

trim briar
#

Yeah such a different look for single cuts

tardy glacier
#

kinda makes the neck look ''naked'' even

#

LMAO

odd coyote
#

is the TS9 a good OD pedal?

#

any other suggestions lmk

#

Tryna have like a tighter better sounding low end

abstract yarrow
#

silly question but is there an AI or software that can translate songs into tabs

#

i really want to learn this one song and noone has covered it yet lol

lethal fractal
smoky widget
#

I'd say if the tab doesn't have a lot of harmonies in the riffs/solos then it'd probably be pretty accurate, since that's what it struggles with most

trim briar
#

Theres an AI program that can delayer a song and then you could probably use what you want to learn and put it through songster AI

abstract yarrow
smoky widget
#

You just put in a youtube link for the song and it tries it's best

tardy glacier
#

yea, it usually kinda gives you the root notes and like the note lengths if it can

#

but it doesnt give any palm mutes, hammer ons or anything

#

those you need to figure out yourself

#

but it can miss very hard as well, even with the tuning

#

depending on the song and the mix

plain vine
#

Hey, could someone please tell me if the solo to the song "The Migrant" by Shadow of Intent has a harmony guitar or something during some parts of the solo? I've been learning the solo and it sounds like there's another guitar at parts (also if there is, I don't know what it's playing because there's no tabs for it and my ear is terrible)

smoky widget
#

So either moving the playing up or down 3 scale degrees is probably it

plain vine
#

Ok, I'll give a look tommorow

#

👍

strange light
#

is there any way to get tabs for Nik`s songs?

lethal fractal
arctic garden

do they usually call to inform you about you order or something?

#

cause I won a guitar from one of Nik's giveaways during the annual awards stream but I haven't received any mail

#

so my next best guess was maybe a phone call cause I just checked and got one like 2 or 3 days after that from the UK but I missed that one

tardy glacier
#

Is there any other difference between the LTD MH-1000 and the LTD M-1000HT besides that the MH has a Floyd Rose and looks a bit different and is a newer model/produce? Which one is the better one if we don't think about the floyd rose preference in yalls' opinion? Or if there are any guitars what are the same price and are similar but even more worth it?

lethal fractal
#

@balmy vortex Sorry for another ping I am looking to get a custom neck made for my strat and was wondering if you could answer some questions?

Also planning to get it made by Warmoth not sure if you have any idea if they are good or bad.

lethal fractal
# balmy vortex i do not

Alright.

Right now I am stuck on what to choose for the neck back profile to many options.
Standard Thin
Boatneck
Fatback
59 Roundback
Clapton
SRV
Wizard
Wolfgang
D

Those are all my neck options and just wonder if any of them are flatter then the Wizard if you know?

As well I am going with Wenge neck with Macassar Ebony fretboard... As well what in your opinion is the best neck radiuses? I have it set to a 12-16 currently.

balmy vortex
#

dont go wenge

#

go maple

#

as for radius, go 12"

lethal fractal
balmy vortex
#

wenge has a mid range i really dont like

lethal fractal
#

sounds good thanks

balmy vortex
#

ebony board is always a good choice tho

lethal fractal
balmy vortex
#

12" is personally my all time fave radius

#

that or 10"

lethal fractal
balmy vortex
#

9 is a lil too flat imo

#

i usually go off esp radius
