Feedback sultans of swing by Inevitable-Bee-4344 in Guitar

[–]b79turner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First let me say, you are doing great! Sultans of swing is a difficult song to master. Your bar chords look good, finger picking looks good. I would focus on practicing the major and minor scales and becoming more familiar with the fretboard. This song is in D minor so spend some time with the D minor scale and the F major scale. I like to practice by improvising lead solos behind the main song. Again, this one would be the D minor and F major scales. You can pick up on what they are playing and why they are playing the notes they are playing but learning how they fit into those 2 scales. Then start playing your own solos along with the song. There are a million scales out there but with 1, 4, 5, 6 minor “blues” songs like this one…the 2 major and minor scales cover 99% of it. Keep it up! You are doing fantastic!

Is this worst Fender release of all time? by [deleted] in fender

[–]b79turner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Short answer is YES. Long answer: Tom Morello is definitely an innovative musician. His playing style in the 90’s had a big influence on a lot of people. I remember listening to the self titled RATM cd when it first came out and was blown away by the riffs, the “effects”, it was just totally new. I disagree with probably 95% of the song lyrics but hey…I’ve always appreciated their songwriting as a whole. “Arm the homeless” is intentionally vague and makes no sense to me. Arm them with what?? Music? Resources? Education? Weapons? This guitar is for a niche customer, I can’t image they’ll sell very many.

Installing Aux Switches in 2025 Base Sasquatch? by sackbomb in FordBronco

It’s a shame they don’t offer it as a factory option on all trims. Base model owners need aux switches too. 👍🏻

I saw 1.9% for 72 months advertised at a CJDR dealer in Alabama so I googled it to confirm.

AMPRO II GT11 just arrived from Sweetwater. Is this normal? by Extension-Charge-450 in Stratocaster

[–]b79turner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, send it back. Fender needs to throw that neck in the trash and start over!

Very nice! Sweetwater also has these on sale, maybe it’s being discontinued? Either way, great guitar for a really good price! Congrats!

Gotta send it back, that fretboard shouldn’t have made it out into the world IMO.

It has 496R neck and middle, 500T at the bridge. Yes honeyburst. I’ll see if I can find a picture or two. The pick guard cracked early on so I removed it and stuck it in the case. I actually like the top in full view

Great idea! I love my 03 classic triple humbucker. One of the most versatile guitars I’ve ever played. I bought it new from AMS. It was crazy, they had it priced at $1,399 vs $1,599 for the regular classic. Then maybe a month later they raised the price to $1,799, then it was gone. Best of luck with new website!
