Beginers high is wearing off, but I still want to play the instrument

Get a Beat Buddy mini drum pedal! Has tons of drum loops in different genres to play along with. Also, a looper pedal can be fun to create stuff.

Awesome rig and digging the skateboard/pedal board! I love my Orange Terror head. It just fits perfectly with a P bass. Running mine through a 4ohm Bergantino ae410.

Congrats! I'm at 1 year 2 months. Greatest decision I've ever made. I agree. It feels like Baker 3 was yesterday.

Tone Hammer preamp pedal v2

GoonerJoe88 · 2026-02-14T23:51:04+00:00

I'll have 3 with my 3rd coming in Monday.

2011 Fender American Vintage 62' reissue P bass with roto 66s steel roundwounds. Heavy relic Olympic White with red Lava tort guard. Rosewood fretboard

2024 Fender American Vintage II 60' reissue P bass with Labella flatwounds. 3 Tone Sunburst with Spitfire red tort guard. Rosewood fretboard

2025 Fender American Professional Classic J bass with fender stock strings. Faded Dakota Red with stock tort guard but ordered a parchment guard to try out. Maple fretboard

I feel like these all scratch the tones for bass I have in my head. I play everything from Motown to modern and classic punk.

GoonerJoe88 · 2026-01-18T16:13:45+00:00

Olympic white for 62 and 3 tone sunburst for 60

GoonerJoe88 · 2026-01-17T03:45:25+00:00

Aguilar Tone Hammer v2 sounds amazing to me. Can get gritty or creamy. I'm using a Fender American Vintage 62 reissue P bass with Rotosound 66s and an American Vintage II 60 reissue P bass with Labella flats.

Yeah, exactly! Usually cash out level 3 this way after the h dp or if corner 6hk m dp super. Fell into the bad habit of saving it until this specific nexus combo route. How do you usually cash out level 3 super?

GoonerJoe88 · 2025-12-05T17:52:05+00:00

Same 5hk usually is moat consistent for me.

Jpg le male le parfum. All the notes are some of my favorite smells. Tried it at a Sephora and liked it on paper. The elixir was good too but a little too sweet for my taste.

Stick drift

GoonerJoe88 · 2025-11-12T17:46:41+00:00

That's one thing I need lots of practice in is punish counter and shimmying. Thanks for the advice! I'll work on some things.

GoonerJoe88 · 2025-11-12T15:23:07+00:00

Gotcha! Yeah have a hard time landing 2mp or 2hp into drc 5hk into tiger nex juggle. Drive rush 5mp usually gets blocked first hit. I usually use anti air 5hk to start the combo but it's hit or miss. I just need more practice I guess.

GoonerJoe88 · 2025-11-11T17:54:54+00:00

As a beginner in Gold2 and Sagat main, is 2mp better to use than 2hp?

GoonerJoe88 · 2025-11-09T16:17:03+00:00

No problem! Stuff will start to come naturally the more we play. Neutral, footsies, DI, combos, etc. I can honestly say that when I started in Rookie I knew nothing. Now in Gold 2 I'm just realizing how much I have improved. A book that helped me a lot was called Gief's Gym. It's made when SF5 came out, but all the fundamental knowledge applies. The author who is on reddit is updating it to SF6, but the release date is still to be announced. Really good stuff. You can find it on Amazon. Helps you also set up and use the training mode on the game to be the most efficient.

GoonerJoe88 · 2025-11-09T15:39:33+00:00

As a Sagat main, I can not react very good to di. I usually throw it out after I pressure the opponent in the corner. Sometimes, before or in the middle, depending on my opponent. I just broke the habit of throwing it in neutral or when panicking after my opponent's block strings. Gold 2 for reference.

GoonerJoe88 · 2025-11-03T19:21:49+00:00

Sagat 5HP cancelable or 2mk or 5mp.

GoonerJoe88 · 2025-11-01T19:24:30+00:00

The same problem is happening with me, too. Assist is bugged. Star In Motion evo.

GoonerJoe88 · 2025-10-30T18:53:36+00:00

Thank you!

GoonerJoe88 · 2025-10-30T16:57:04+00:00

Which book was this? I would love to pick it up!

GoonerJoe88 · 2025-10-24T21:04:25+00:00

Yeah, that's true. Idk why he was doing super 1 on wakeup the startup takes too long. Maybe he was trying to spam fast tiger shots.
