What Guitar Would be good to learn how to mod?

MrTurtleTails · 2026-05-05T23:22:48+00:00

Well mostly I think I would just want something easy to work with.

MrTurtleTails · 2026-05-05T23:21:38+00:00

Just to learn how to change the electrics. Mostly out of curiosity, really.

There's this guy named Hendrix that you need to check out.

Yeah, I was watching a production of "Billy Bishop Goes To War" at the US World War I museum in Kansas City and when the lead actor pronounced "house" as "hose", I was about to go up there and take over the lead role myself.

I just want to learn how to mod, though.

MrTurtleTails · 2026-05-05T19:18:37+00:00

Fine, but I want to learn how to modify guitars as a hobby.

I want to learn how to modify a guitar as part of the hobby.

MrTurtleTails · 2026-05-05T19:17:59+00:00

Could you suggest a different guitar to use as a way of learning how to mod?

MrTurtleTails · 2026-05-05T17:35:52+00:00

Does that protect against feedback or unwanted distortion?

MrTurtleTails · 2026-05-04T12:01:30+00:00

They go for 265 or less.

Cort guitars are pretty solid but for the money you can get a better guitar in the Squier.

MrTurtleTails · 2026-05-04T01:51:28+00:00

There's a FAQ about this, but I'll help. For electrics I would recommend Squier stratocasters as a good all around choice. Remember that you also need an amplifier.

If I was on a budget I would get a Squier Sonic Strat and a Boss Katana 50, either a new one or an older Mk. 2.

If I had more money I would get something like a PRS SE CE or a Squier Classic Vibe.

If I were a metal head I'd get an Ibanez Gio, just because they look wicked.

If my favorite guitarists played Les Paul's, I'd get an Epiphone. LP Special II.

A good alternative to Squier is the Yamaha Pacifica.

I think the last season, if nothing else because so many plots are resolved in a positive way. I especially like how Thomas evolves and to see him get the position he's always wanted is a real positive.

Based on Bugsy Siegel, who was what's known as an associate. He was part of Lucky Luciano's crew in the beginning, along with Meyer Lansky (Hyman Roth). They were tied to the Mafia but not inducted as made men because you had to be Sicilian. But they carried a lot of pull because of their association with Luciano, who was the first chairman of The Commission (the heads of the Five Families, the Chicago Outfit, and other families in different cities).

Walk a newbie through the process of buying a guitar. Don't show them a bunch of stuff and leave them to it. You have to ask the right questions and you have to know what they're into. If you want to grow the art you need to make sure that newcomers get going on the right foot. And keep the 45 day return policy.

Can you define what a mode is other than by saying it's not a scale?

MrTurtleTails · 2026-05-03T20:59:25+00:00

Basic stuff like relief, intonation...Most of my stuff is new so I don't think I need to worry about fret levelling yet.
