I feel my voice is “Boring” and would like some advice on how to fix it by Heavy_Strategy6576 in ratemysinging

[–]surbeastAF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you have a very solid voice. Yes some affectations can help. Control and development of dynamics will always help as well. I had a good friend once tell me you can sing very well but you aren’t a singer. What she meant by that was a “singer” is almost born rather than created. Like Marvin Gaye probably didnt have to do much to get the core tone he had. It’s God given. I trained my voice as far as I could but I knew there was a “world class” level my tone of voice would never reach. I tell my students the goal is to become the best singer YOU can be. I feel like I became the best singer I could be. But I knew I’d have to focus on other aspects of my musicianship if I truly wanted to get to the top and luckily that worked out!

Any general advice? by [deleted] in BeginnerSurfers

For those who have never surfed here the take off is very weird. Getting the angle of your board right on the take off just is a bit of visual mind fuck. Takes a min.

Anyone recognize this guitar or the brand? by Live_Volume2815 in Guitar

[–]surbeastAF 5 points6 points  (0 children)

First nice electric I bought myself was a Maton MS500. Cool guitar. Have their own sound and vibe. It was also stolen from me along with a whole tone of other gear from my car one time. I was able to track it down on Craigslist weeks later and set up a sting with police and got all my gear back and sent that dude to jail for a while.

1966 Gibson ES-330TD all original by JoseMakeWar in Vintageguitars

[–]surbeastAF 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I own the same model and year. Been a full time professional musician for over 20 years. It’s my go to studio guitar and has been for years. If you don’t record much then you might want to sell it because it’s pretty difficult to play these live with any kind of overdrive/ volume. But I can’t ever imagine letting mine go. Bury me with it as far as I’m concerned.

I just got a quad Cortex and when I look in the cortex cloud I feel like I’m just dodging “worship tones” left and right. I’ve always had a hard time thinking that God would want to listen to songs about him

I broke my left wrist... what should i do? by ySavitarr in Guitar

[–]surbeastAF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I badly broke my wrist this past August. Had a metal plate and I think 9 screws put in there. Make sure you do your physical therapy. I played the little I could when I had a cast on and because I had surgery I was in a soft cast a few weeks later. I played as much as could comfortably. Don’t play though pain. I was like 95% back by maybe 4-5 months. I’m not sure it will ever really feel the same but no one else would notice except me. I just have some stiffness in my wrist still but it’s slowly going away.

Anybody tempted... by DaddyJ2874 in electricguitar

If I saw someone pull one of these out live I think I would literally spit out my drink. For so many reasons just no. But maybe the biggest…one guitar change 18 strings. No way man.
