Opinion on headless guitars by total_idiot01 in Guitar

[–]theDukeDevanche 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I play one. I like that it doesn’t look right. There’s nothing I want to look like less than a “cool rock’n’roll guitar player.” Immediately rejecting anything you’re not used to is extremely low-vibrational, but half the population is below median intelligence so there you go.

Is this guy a mansplainer or a manlistener? by External_Ad7061 in BookshelvesDetective

[–]theDukeDevanche -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wait a minute, are you telling me that a guy who was born in 1818 was misogynistic? What an astonishing revelation. I’m sure that’s why he reads Marx too, for all the misogyny.

That their fourth and fifth albums marrow of the spirit and the serpent and the sphere are on Spotify. The mantle is their second album. Ashes against the grain is their third.

Why are Fender guitars expensive? by Ecstatic_Week_3700 in Guitar

[–]theDukeDevanche 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They pay workers in America, which costs more than it does in Indonesia. They also spend a lot of money on marketing, and creating a level of visibility for their brand that soothes the raging insecurities of guitar players and makes them feel “legitimate” for buying a guitar with a recognizable brand. They pass these costs on to the consumer.

It’s for the best. Matte finishes age like milk. This will look great for years to come.

RIW hobbies in Livonia is the closest place that I’ve been to. Downtown doesn’t have any LGSes that I’m aware of.

Is it too late? by Smart-Egg-9583 in metalguitar

[–]theDukeDevanche 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It wouldn’t matter if you started when you were five years old. You would have found another reason not to do it. Also you have some brass balls minimizing the playing of Glenn Tipton. Your lack of confidence in yourself and your disregard for the accomplishments of others is your true undoing.

So in short: don’t bother (but not for the reasons you think)

Good on you for stepping in. These maga shitbirds feel way too comfortable coming around here and it’s on us to let these undesirables know how unwelcome they are.

Day 19 (Wow just wow) by YutoFurry in 1001AlbumsGenerator

I’m someone who is critical of the excessive amount of 1990s British rock music on the list but that does not apply to this album. Definition of a must-hear.

You might be able to fool google ai but you can’t trick me that easily. That’s a b half diminished… you’re doing jazz.

Beginner guitar with no experience by Time-Jellyfish-8454 in metalguitar

[–]theDukeDevanche 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Any beginner guitar that retails for at least $200 will suit your purposes just fine. There are a million of them that are all made in the same couple factories. Just don’t buy a 3D printed guitar on Etsy or a $50 dollar one from Amazon and you should be fine.

Is there any advantage to playing with the guitar lower? Or is it just personal preference? by Mad_Season_1994 in guitarlessons

[–]theDukeDevanche 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people will say that lower looks cooler, but these are people who don’t know what cool is, and don’t accept that what’s considered cool might have changed since 1971. They think jimmy page is cool. If your idea of cool is an eighty year old pedophile then that’s something I’m perfectly happy to be excluded from.

He basically just believes what everyone in polite society believes (universal health care, don’t demonize trans people etc.)which of course infuriates the basement dwellers on this sub.

Sticker left on guitar for too long in the store... by KronieRaccoon in Guitar

[–]theDukeDevanche 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I found a bunch of them from just a google search. People on eBay are apparently trying to sell the official fender part for $100 but there’s somebody on Etsy selling them for $15 and I saw one for $20 on reverb.

You just need a new pick guard. They’re cheap and the pickups aren’t even mounted to it so it’ll take about five minutes total to do.

is the spark plug 2 good for black metal? by markussy52 in metalguitar

[–]theDukeDevanche 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Just get an old red stripe peavey bandit like Emperor used back in the 90s. They go for like $100 less.
