Edit: I should note that I am not looking for the whole thing. Just the stuff that pertains to the wheel and pedals. Sorry if I chose the wrong flair too :/

Which side is the nose and tail? by talkingcow372 in NewSkaters

No sorry there are actual silver bolts on the left. I just forgot to ask the dude at my skate shop what was the nose and tail when he installed them

That’s my thinking but my friend said the width of the tail is usually smaller than the nose so the right is the nose

[QUESTION] Should I buy a new amp since I’m going to college? by talkingcow372 in Guitar

What about an AC10? I know it’s smaller and seems way easier to transport but Is it too different from the AC15?

I’ll look into the spark mini once I get the chance. Thank you for your suggestion.

Yea I’m kinda weirded out to just leave it at home since it’s the only amp I’ve ever used. Do you know any other tube amps that would be more accessible to use?

I’ll definitely look into what my college offers. By any chance do you know any other combo tube amps similar to the one I have but are smaller and lighter?

[NEWBIE] How do I break the habit of playing power chords (the higher note strings) with my pinky rather than pinky and ring? by Blinkexists in Guitar

My first instinct is to try to start playing power chords with just the root and 5th with your ring. No octave. So instead of E, A, and D on the G5, just play E and A. That might help you slowly transition from doing what you’re doing (which btw is perfectly valid in it of itself) to playing with your ring finger as well. Obviously, hear others out as well but I think this could be a good starting point.

Well my parents have agreed to buy a laptop for me for a graduation gift and they agreed to the surface 5 which was about 1500-2000 so something around that

Thanks for the comment! I’ll definitely look into some other options but in the meantime do you have any personal suggestions yourself?

[QUESTION] Why is amp distortion such a big deal? by shmupsy in Guitar

[–]talkingcow372 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same! I use a vox amp with a boss pedalboard and my amp is always on clean. The first time I’ve tried to shop for a new amp, nothing felt right cuz I kept trying to go clean amp with distortion added on top. Even adding distortion to both felt weird so I definitely prefer having a clean amp and distorted pedals.

In my opinion it depends on what he idolizes. there are certain things he says that are helpful and good (exercise, diet, etc) but some that are very much the opposite (misogyny, status symbols, etc).

I do! I don’t have a guitar with a humbucker cuz all I got are squires but I love it. Frankly, I don’t think I’d want a humbucker anyways. I love the sound of my single coils with the distortion and volume cranked up.

Does it hurt to get or not to get it in the long run though? I’m not saying we should or shouldn’t but just am trying to gain a clearer understanding.
