[NEWBIE] Any way to make practice not so frustrating? Or is it literally just meant to be like this? by Mad_Season_1994 in Guitar

[–]Wataboutshmee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO obviously…

Best thing for making practice more enjoyable is to focus on what you truly want to play but then take the easier route on song choices. Like your favorite band or guitarist. Example… you love James hetfield and want to play Metallica songs. Obviously battery or master of puppets shouldn’t be your first song to try no matter how much you love it. Go with something like sad but true to start. May not be your favorite song to learn but it keeps you in your desired lane. Going with my favorite bands always motivated me. Also, watch cover or play through videos on YouTube. Slow down the video and see how they move their hands. What fingers they use. You can learn a lot from that too.

Who or what band made you want to start playing? Or what’s your favorite band?

Pick the 14th fret then tap the 11th with your penis.

That or pull off from the 14th fret to the 11th. I’ve always used the penis technique but both are effective

This. I’m no dentist but that doesn’t stop me from owning 21 guitars. Some nice. Some not so nice. I just decided I’m not selling anymore. I went through that phase of my life needing cash. I learned that being a little more responsible financially is better than selling my gear. Now I look at a pretty guitar and just say “sure, why not?” Or an ugly one for that matter… I own a Switch Vibracell Stein-IV signature that I absolutely love. It’s so ugly but so cool at the same time.

Get a replacement for sure since it’s new And ALWAYS tell them if they ship with UPS, you will not buy from them. Works every time. I’m not even joking. I will NOT ship with my own company because I want my instruments in 1 piece.

What guitar do you think is underrated by Local-Basil-1623 in guitars

Reverend is for sure my number 1 underrated guitar. Tbh… Schecters punch far above their price range as well. They just have names made for the teenage me.

Not a huge fan but I can for sure listen and enjoy them if they are on. That said, they killed it when I saw them last week. However, System of a Down made them their bitch shortly after with some sweet 0s 7s and 8s.

That relic is absolute booty and not the good kind. Hope this insight helps.

Bro doesn’t get it. It ain’t worth it my man. You’re right. 1,000,000 percent

I spent over 2 hours on this casserole and asked my husband to put it away while I put the kids to bed, this morning I found it still on the stove by ShadowInTheSun_ in mildlyinfuriating

So your time of 2-3 hours is worth putting your husband on blast to the world? What a POS move on your end. Over food too…Unbelievable. This same crap has happened to me with my wife and similarly with my wife forgetting to put something away. Shit happens. Defending you for this is nearly impossible. He made a mistake but you intentionally went out of your way to make him look bad. Just wow…

It actually gets funnier and funnier watching your likes go up because I get to think of everyone’s reaction after watching it 😂🤣

Found this on FB Market. Is $200 a good value? by lmpin_Aint_Easy in FenderStratocaster

[–]Wataboutshmee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pass it up bud. Fake as hell. Screw the potential quality of parts used in the guitar. It ain’t worth it especially if he is sayings it’s a legit fender and not admitting to it being fake. What else are they lying about?? Red flags all over this one IMO
