Replaced my pre amp tubes with Tung Sol's and rectifier tube with a JJ since it was kind of acting up a little bit already. Just realized the Princeton is fixed bias, so wondering if it's worth replacing the power tubes too while I'm at it. Are NOS (Sylvania, RCA etc) mostly just snake oil when it comes to power tubes or is there any merit to them over Groove Tubes or JJ/TS etc?

I’ve been burglarized and they took 6 guitars and almost all of my pedals and amps. The only guitar they didn’t take was a Dearmond that had a lot of stickers on it and a boss ds1. So I recommend covering your guitar in paint and stickers if you don’t want it stolen

No idea. maybe they lather some cheap crap on the board maybe its just wood quality. I think it's the latter cause that chemical cocktail I hit it with can clean a gun barrel so I doubt anything they could put into it would survive that unless its particularly nasty.

Wanna buy a guitar with a floating trem but I know from experience what a pain in the ass they are so what is the easiest solution to deck the tremolo or tremolno that shit? I like divebombs and whammy vibrato but I don't want to deal with PITA string changes, string breaks de-tuning my whole instrument, and out of tune bends. It's gonna be a Gotoh 510 custom.

Thickness at the nut is basically the same as vintage Fender, but thickness at the 12th fret is like 49mm which is definitely thin. My thinnest Fender at the 12th fret is around 51mm so even thinner than that. It’s not that much of an adjustment coming from thinner vintage Fender style necks but jumping between it and like my LP is a pretty noticeable difference. The thin neck doesn’t bother me at all but I was nervous about it waiting for it to come in

I don’t mind it at all, I kind of talked about the neck here >>129541543. It’s doesn’t taper from the nut to the body nearly as much as any other guitar. I personally prefer vintage size frets so this having small frets is a plus, and the lacquered board doesn’t feel any different than any better or worse than any of my non lacquered boards. I like the neck as a whole a lot more than I thought I would. I’d prefer it to be a smidge wider at the 12th fret but it’s by no means too narrow for me and isn’t a con against the guitar, just something they do differently. I can see why people wouldn’t like it but it’s right in line in the area of the necks I like
>>129542847
There’s a Rick 350 like her’s (but not her signature model, just a regular 350) about an hour away that I was kind of tempted by, but I don’t really care for the look of a full scale neck on the little John Lennon style 325 hollow body.

which one would you go for out of these three?

Getting my first guitar floating trem system but guitars that come with an FR Originial or even a 1000 cost more than a monthly house loan. I've only heard bad things about licensed Floyds and so far not too much negative about Ibanez's Edge Zero IIs. I already have 2 Ibanezes so I'm already pretty familiar with their necks too as an added bonus

>>129546289
Middle looks cool

>>129542539
the middle and the right are two of the ugliest guitars ive ever seen

Gonna buy my first Tele and second guitar tomorrow.
what am I in for?

>>129546950
Dont diss the rick. The right one with lipstick pickups is ultra queer though.

>>129547003
The Surf Caster is based.

>>129546959
A good time if you picked the right Tele.

can someone explain the jazzmaster meme to me? the trem sucks, it's basic bolt-on construction, the pickups hum. i don't get it... or is that the meme?

I have Godin pickups in one of my fender teles are they're fantastic.

>>129547727
well, don't be mad at him. the reason I became a bassist was because my friends asked me to be in their band and gave me a bass because I played the violin when I was a kid.

Never regretted it, but for a loooong time I had no idea what I was doing.
but, as I got older I overcame my naive avoidance of theory, I wish I had known sooner how much joy knowing theory can bring

For guys who pay attention to higher end boutique guitar and amp builders, you ever notice that these companies have this long list of guitarists they sponsor that cannot write anything worth listening to? Think of companies like Two Rock or Collings that are making $8,000 dumble clones or fucking $9,000 acoustics. These companies have this long roster of artists that act as literally nothing else but vehicles to promote brands. Guys like Ariel Posen, Joey Landreth, Adam Miller. They all know how to play guitar and are technically skilled and have some sick licks, but they have never once written a single song that anyone would actually listen to on a regular basis. Complete soulless slop. The only artist somewhat worth listening to is Julian Lage, but its purely just music for music nerd dorkery.

Fill the hole with titebond 3. Stick toothpicks in the hole to fill it. Clip off any protruding parts of the toothpicks. Scrub off any glue that ran out. Let it sit for at least 48 hours to allow the glue to fully cure.

>>129549003
Absolutely. I've known this for a long time, so I guess the contemporary example is Jacob Collier. To piss more people off, the same goes for Phish and The Grateful Dead (et al). There are notable exceptions (Zappa, Bartok, Bach family, GBV), so it seems like a personality defect or rubes identifying virtuosity with listenability.
>muh Victor Wooten
>muh Steve Bailey

If you look at a guitar ad and say, woooww, if I get this, I'll be this, you're already lost. You see these weekend warriors who buy the whole setup and have a viable jam space, but yeah, Jenn's gotta be up at 8, so if we can work on our acoustic set after 10pm, then okayyyyy...

I think the idea is that being profligate and competent actually makes your output depleted (like fucking a nymphomaniac bitch 5 times a day, gave me a fucking embolism on my dick). It's a qi thing, and I think if you focus your attention on any inanimate object, you can see it come to life.

>>129549992
I think everyone can agree the greatful dead and phish suck (sorry scotty).
collier's whole schtick is "wow, look at me I have perfect pitch" while making "music nerd" music for people who aren't musicians.

He was a bigger, better man than all of us. On the other hand, Les Paul himself had giga-GAS was even buying OG supershite chibsons.

Epiphone makes an Axcess? Like with the heelcut and the belly carve? I might skip an LP studio axcess and just get one then.
I have an old nighthawk with the belly carve and thinner neck/heel but without the heelcut like on my strandberg clone it doesn't feel comfortable to get high.

Nigga, I don't remember but Ronkonkoma is what you're looking for.
>Ronkonkoma is the station you end up if you fall asleep on the LIRR from Penn Station

Maybe they're Manhasset branded, but you want a heavy steel base that's EASILY adjustable. I can't overestimate that the main advantage richies vs poors ;have is these mounting "nuisances".

>>129551322
The three main qualities that you need are adjustability, idiot-proofness, and weight. All of these qualities are present in normal music stands because you have kids in elementary school who abuse them.

Pick a strumming pattern, pick a bpm and just play random chords. It doesn't have to be pretty, just get your hands used to moving around and feeling the chord shapes
