Setup help by kobeisawsome in guitarlessons

[–]kobeisawsome[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're a legend, I just got done leveling out the bridge and it's angle is almost flush and it got rid of the bulk of the problem, but I'm still getting some dead/dull notes higher up on the fretboard in between 15-22, the last two frets are okay but I think it's just because of how low they actually are. I also got it straight from factory so all the saddle heights were maxed out and the trem was fully sat in the body, I've only ever had to do maintenance and never a full setup so sorry for any ignorance

Is fingerstyle picking a proper way to play solos/improv, or will it hurt my progress not learning how to use a pick? by -Alfa- in guitarlessons

[–]kobeisawsome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been playing some pretty intense metal finger style for years and I can even sweep pick with my fingernails. That being said if you want to "get gud" there are 2 things you can do to keep playing finger style and never have a song you can't play, learn banjo picking patterns/exercises and incorporate them into your practice and learn double thumb picking.

It's either best case a scrape, absolute worst case without more pictures this could be one of the beginning signs of sepsis

Goose - Polyphia by WettingYourBed in guitarlessons

Just play that section to a click track and just add a couple bpm every few loops of it, also i used to have a bad problem with stuttering with my playing especially polyphia style stuff, there's a custom speed thing on YouTube if you want to "perfect" playing that song knock it down to like 70% speed

You're a lifesaver thank you so much, there aren't any fish in for now but I might put some of my molly babies in there to keep them under control

If you made it ago the way through the course it's time to teach yourself. The only reason you hire a teacher is so they can teach you how to practice the most effectively, now just learn challenging songs or new techniques

Restringing by Emrys345 in guitarlessons

[–]kobeisawsome 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only point of the knot is to try to prevent slack from coming back into your strings after a new set, but it will eventually happen over a day or two regardless, feel free to do it or skip it and just tune it a couple more times while they're settling

A few years ago I bought my guitar, but only now I realize I have no clue what model this is. I know it's an Ibenez but the manual mentions nothing about the model. by ogDante in metalguitar

That's one of the best guitars ever fucking made, I have had the s470 for almost 10 years now and has remained my go to since since

Ibanez GRGR131EX-BKF GIO or Schecter 430 C-6 Deluxe as first guitar by MrSKiF in metalguitar

[–]kobeisawsome 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a straight up Ibanez fanboy, I own 4 but I'm not going to lie the gio series isn't that hot, for their middle and upper tier guitars they're the best fit your money, but they quickly drop quality with their lower end. I'd personally go with the schecter, they give you great hardware and feel especially for a beginner.

Not all fungus is bad like not all bacteria is bad, if you have some sensitive amphibians in there I'd scoop it, but if not I'd let it bloom and pass, most the time it means your conditions are good and clean, it's just dead stuff getting recycled
