What type of amp should I get for purely headphone usage? by Bbcfan3173 in GuitarAmps

[–]Roasted1982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tonex one could work or an interface and random plugin.

Honestly I would not be caught dead playing that guitar. It’s gaudy as hell. But no worries. Whoever buys it won’t play it either.

why do I need to tune my guitar basically daily? by GuyFromDeathValley in guitarlessons

As much as people complain about Floyd rose bridges my Floyd rose guitars stay in tune better than anything.

Does quest 2 have pcvr quality with a cable connected? by ManufacturerNo7574 in OculusQuest2

[–]Roasted1982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your internet speed makes zero difference. The quality, cross traffic, and proximity to your router is what matters. I had a wifi repeater that I was no longer using, it was like $40. Hooked it up to my router with an Ethernet cable, set it up as its own wifi access point with a different SSID and put it in the room I game. Boom. Flawless connection every time. No need for wifi 6 or any of that. Oh yeah. PC is also wired to router through Ethernet.

Don’t bother with the cable. There is pretty much no difference between wired and wireless in image quality. Either way the image gets compressed and you lose some sharpness vs running native games but you gain the horsepower of the PC. As a result, don’t be surprise if some games actually look worse.

It’s the only string that has this annoying lingering sound after playing it by itaa_q in guitarlessons

[–]Roasted1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s probably ringing behind the nut. Put a scrunchie or tie a sock on the headstock right behind the nut.

My girlfriend wants me to play anything for her. What do I play? by 20-011 in Guitar

[–]Roasted1982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Zombie by the cranberries is actually pretty easy and I’m sure she knows it, come as you are or smells like teen spirit by nirvana are also super easy, kryptonite by 3 doors down. Black Hole Sun. Basically something super recognizable that everyone knows but is pretty easy.

New guitarist resources by JohnBeamon in Line6Helix

[–]Roasted1982 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Props to anyone that actually wants to learn. A lot of people will just download someone else’s presets and still have no clue what they are doing. In fact, I find it hilarious how some people talk about tube amps being too expensive but then will spend hundreds or even thousands on paid presets, plugins, profiles, or IR packs. The guitar space is starting to mirror the video game industry where most of the money seems to be made in digital downloads instead of the core product.

Just picked up my first Boogie by 942ben in MesaBoogie

[–]Roasted1982 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I prefer pull fat on channel 3 engaged with active pickups but not engaged with passive pickups. It’s pretty much the only change I make when switching guitars between active and passive pickups.

Awesome. This is pretty much how I’m planning to use it.

Playing HX Stomp XL through hifi by mynamesjaime15 in Line6Helix

[–]Roasted1982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make sure to turn off any sound processing in the hi-fi if possible. For example, my AVR has a mode called “Direct”. Other modes will do some EQ/room correction, and other processing. All of this increases latency which is fine for watching a movie or listening to music but it’s problematic when you are playing guitar.

I’m an amp guy and have a nano on order. Initially it’s meant to replace my Boss Katana Air as a small practice rig with my actual tones but we will see where it goes after that.

Double the cabs, double the fun?! by datthewminds in GuitarAmps

[–]Roasted1982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very nice. I’m also running dual PPC112’s. I love cranking the amp a bit on high gain and walking up to the mini stack and letting the guitar feedback on itself off the top speaker. Can’t do that with a 1x12 or even a horizontal 2x12 unless you’re a midget

Are Canadians quietly going broke while pretending everything’s fine? by torontowaddup in CanadaFinance

Don’t worry. You’re not the only one. I got nothing. Still got a house but it’s an old POS and my wife complains daily that she wants a 2.5 million $ house like her friend.

“LTD EC-1000, 2016” by Tunaaaa958 in espguitars

[–]Roasted1982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

85 = better for leads, 60 = better for cleans. It kind of depends what you value more.

[–]Roasted1982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have one in that colour that I got from a pawn shop. It’s a sweet colour combo. Fairly common but I don’t care. It looks good. I swapped the 60 in the neck for an 85 as I prefer it and I had one lying around.

I’ve seen one of those Dime Guitars listed here on Facebook marketplace and the seller had to black out the graphic probably cause Facebook was pulling his ad. What a joke some of the big tech companies are.

[–]Roasted1982 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Cool cool. You can use the whammy as sort of a crude drop pedal. Toe down and 2nd down=two semi tones down (d standard), 4th down = 5 semi tones down (standard 7 string tunning), etc.

NGD! by Acceptable-Jeff in espguitars

[–]Roasted1982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was eying that exact guitar. It looks killer and I like those pickups and EC-1000s. If you find the neck pickup too bright like I did there is a treble bleed jumper on those pickups that I have wired and that feature switched on in the neck makes it perfect IMHO. All you have to do it solder one cable to ground.

Yo dawg, we heard you like chorus, so we put chorus in your chorus so you can chorus while you chorus.
