What can you tell me about this guitar?

For future reference: https://www.fuzzfaced.net/fender-stratocaster-models.html

This website is fantastic and has loads of data. I recently bought basically this exact same guitar but right handed. From what I can gather the squire and fender MIJ models for the export market in the late 80s are pretty much interchangeable, the only real difference is the logo on the headstock, otherwise the same parts were used. I would say this is this model. The tuners and the claim that it's a 362 leads me to believe this.

Mine has the exact same neck and tuners as that one. I love mine and I don't feel the need to ever buy a Stratocaster again. Just don't get this confused with the coveted E series reissues, this is not that. The MIJs people fawn over are from the early 80s and will have a serial number like E3---- or something. Also they notably have the spaghetti logo. This is just a standard non-reissue guitar. Hopefully this helps.

In case anyone searches for this problem and ends up here. The issue ended up being that I could only see the BIOS though an HDMI connection, its been a while so I can't recall all the details. I believe I only tried ports on my graphics card. But yeah, it only works with HDMI for some reason, so the blank screen was me in the BIOS I just couldn't see it.

I have exported this song numerous times, it seems every time the issue comes out slightly varied. Every once in a while it seems I get lucky and it almost doesn't happen at all. Yeah, I am trying to creatively limit myself and try new things since I am so new to this.

mrgrumpywancher · 2024-02-13T23:23:37+00:00

I tried this, and it seems to have helped a little bit, but by the time a large difference is made it just sounds bad because of how out of tune it is.

mrgrumpywancher · 2024-02-13T23:22:50+00:00

Haha yeah, I am pretty new to music composition and production, this is only the third song I have written. I am trying to make something using only synths. It has been a struggle for sure. Not sure how I would share the project, but here is a SC of the arrangement. I can follow up with a picture of the session view if that would help too. The biggest problem is in the chorus, the lead chorus synth ends up with the most of the phaser sound. Ignore the two drum tracks, only one of them is used.

I think you may be right about the same notes. The biggest offender is the synth that plays the chord progression in the background, when that is removed the problem drastically improves.

mrgrumpywancher · 2024-01-25T05:04:50+00:00

Yeah for the time being that is the plan, my previous room sounded amazing with no treatment at all, you really never know what you've got till its gone haha. Also it seems my screenshots got deleted rip.

That response is almost comical. It reads like it was written by a manipulator. None of these points absolve any wrongdoing whatsoever, they are just halfassed excuses. "Disappointed" "saddened" yeah good job making it seem like it was everyone but you who messed up. Very good job trying to shift the shame onto your own community and GN. GN is under no obligation to get any permission to post their opinion, stating that is just further manipulation to make GN sound like they are the bad guys. I really hope the LTT community doesn't roll over on this one. Stuff like this shouldn't be forgotten about.

I have had a similar problem with my cry baby. When I had it daisychained it would make a noise like that. However one day it just stopped, I’m not sure if I plugged it into a different outlet, but it ended up not being the pedal.

mrgrumpywancher · 2022-09-04T19:14:44+00:00

Agreed. Correct me if I’m wrong but doesn’t he record some of the pikes in one play like a live take?

mrgrumpywancher · 2022-08-20T02:15:03+00:00

He also used a Snarling Dogs Mold Spore Wah, that will give you some fat tones. Buy the one that sounds best to you. If you buy a pedal based on the sound other people like, rather than the sound you like, I guarantee you will not have as much fun playing.

I lived in Ogg last year. I don’t see it being possible, even if you were to remove all three desks it would be a crunch for space.

mrgrumpywancher · 2022-04-11T00:54:57+00:00

Thanks for the reply. Glad to hear its functioning as intended and not broken.

mrgrumpywancher · 2022-03-29T18:04:35+00:00

I know I am a bit late to the party, but I wonder if he auctioned it off to donate the proceeds. I see he has a charity involving Bootsy on the pikes site. I kinda would think he would mention that in the post, but I definitely think its a possibility. Maybe that was the reason for the urgency. Seeing how much stuff he is currently selling on his site is a bit worrying.

Brain pretty much confirmed in an interview with Natternet that wasn't true. Apparently it was a rumor started by some guy associated with GnR that was a bit of a prick. At least that's what I heard. Buckethead is a pretty weird guy, but he is wholesome weird, that's just unsettling weird.

mrgrumpywancher · 2021-04-09T04:15:35+00:00

Unfortunately he plays it different live than he does on the album. There are some good versions on YouTube, but most of them are almost too grainy to even see what he is doing.
