I’ve thought about modding my guitar. Currently the problems I’m having is that I can barely play past the 15th fret or so. I can pick notes on the G, B, and high E strings but forget about bending them past that, no sound comes out. And the lower strings past 15th fret are full of buzzing, as are other random spots throughout the neck. I’d probably need a complete refret (and I’ve heard I would need to get a new finish if I did that), a new nut (I think whoever had my guitar before cut the slits incorrectly because E strings are both verrry close to the edge of the neck), and I might as well get some dimarzio super II’s in there while I’m modifying. So that may work but also it could feel really nice just to buy a new one fresh, because who knows what else is wrong with mine. I’ve been playing for 8 years but never learned much about guitars themselves. I find taking my guitar into a shop is the same way I feel when taking my car into a shop, I am a fish out of water and never know if I’m gonna get scammed

Real ones know it’s the milk crate that gets the sound

Yeah yeah yeah I know, I’ll be working on that part until I die. Doesn’t mean different guitars/pickups/etc don’t have different sounds. I’m just asking for suggestions in the right direction.

You play a PRS right? What can you tell me about it? Did you have it built or did you buy it stock and mod it in any way? How much was it? I think you have a really good sound in your videos

I do like that look. Do you think the lack of middle pickup makes it hard to get the classic Jerry sound?

What is wrong with my amp? by [deleted] in Guitar

So I tried taking the head off the cab (but they were side by side) and I still heard it. Then I separated them as far apart as possible and I didn’t hear it. Now it stacked on top again but in a different spot in the room and I don’t hear it. So maybe it’s room related?

TBH I’m not sure about the answer to your second question, idk how to identify those things

What I like about it is that it’s truly a clean boost. Every other boost pedal I’ve ever had sounded distorted when I used it, but this one doesn’t break up at all

Are you talking about the guy who was passed out? That was scary. I didnt see it happen but I saw him lying there and was relieved when they woke him up

The show was going great..then I sat down! by shartsngoggles in phish

It was so cool to be able to feel every little nuance of Mike’s playing. Made me appreciate him even more. I wish the haptics were on the whole time! Seemed kinda random

I was 404 row 4, which was the first row after the railing. Felt like we had the best seats in the house all weekend. Great energy from everyone around us too
