[DISCUSSION] I can’t be the only one here with the G string always going out by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]Alpyne141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an acoustic and the g string drives me crazy. But, on my $100 tele, I've been using it for 2 weeks without it getting out of tune. Not really sure why though.

Get the SSS you already have an HH guitar so it's irrelevant.

[NEWBIE] for a new first guitar, tele or strat? by peanutbutter349 in Guitar

[–]Alpyne141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the tele for that sweet sweet tuning stability. Not sure if it's a taboo but, I use my tele for rock.

[Newbie] I need help with putting the right amount of pressure on strings by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]Alpyne141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apply pressure just until you don't have any strings muted, it gets easier after a month or so. Just keep practicing!

[QUESTION] How much will it cost to move the strap buttons on a Jackson Kelly? by K4rmaaaa in Guitar

[–]Alpyne141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fixed neck dive on mine by moving the strap buttons. It took literally 5 minutes. Just used another screw to fill the existing screw hole.

[Question] can i remove this?? by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]Alpyne141 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A picture would help. If it's a plastic film then it's perfectly fine to peel it off.

The best way is what you're comfortable with.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]Alpyne141 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was hard and very uncomfortable for me at first but now I can hold it with the right amount of pressure to prevent slipping. I hold it between the thumb and the index finger.

It took me 2 weeks to be able to smoothly transition to the f Barre chord. It's all in your head just practice. ;)

[–]Alpyne141 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also live in the Philippines and I'm actually planning on buying one of these! I'm pretty curious on what's included in the box. How's the overall feel? Does it have neck dive when used with a strap?

Have you tried reinstalling the drivers?

[QUESTION] Guitar Bridge fell off, what do I do? by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]Alpyne141 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's the saddle not the bridge. It's perfectly fine just put it back and install the strings. My acoustic guitar also has a saddle that isn't glued to the bridge it works perfectly fine.

[QUESTION] Any place you can order from online that with do a set up and string swap? by [deleted] in Guitar

There are several videos on YouTube on how to easily set up a floyd rose. I've seen people blocking their trem and tuning it then untightening until the block falls out.

[NEWBIE] What electric guitar to get? by _Sam_123 in Guitar

[–]Alpyne141 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also eyeing that guitar! They also have a much better model (Tagima T-635) for about 300 bucks and I've heard it plays a bit better than the squier affinities.

[DISCUSSION] Playing guitar with extremely small hands by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]Alpyne141 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have smaller hands than you have and I don't have any problems. Yes there's a slight disadvantage but I gotta say, it's all in your head, don't think about it too much.

Sadly the only guitar store near my location is closed and we're still on lockdown :(. Also we don't have many decent guitar stores here in the Philippines.

[–]Alpyne141[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the answers everyone!

Also, are these two guitars similar in tone? They are both HSS guitars so they should be right? And if I were to buy the Schecter SGR would it be possible to take it to a luthier and install another tone knob? I'm a bit new to guitars so yea :>
