This concludes the folk rock album titled "Broken Hearts and Broken Chairs. Available at your local /gg/ web portal rn (right now)

I've thought many times over the years that I probably wouldn't have quit music if I had picked the guitar instead of the bass.

Also I would have enjoyed playing bass much more if I had bought a Musicman Stingray (the bass I wanted) instead of a mid-high end Yamaha. Should've saved up. I knew I fucked up when I played a Stingray in a shop and it was so much nicer to play than the garbage action on that faggot John Myung Yamaha. I felt nothing when I sold that bass, I really hated it.

Hey
You're not the Max Headroom guy
Did something happen to him?

have kate beckinsale sucking your cock

be a loser in-universe

suspension of disbelief...

It's not okay to be white.

you should really learn how to do a setup. a lot of high end instruments need setups too especially if the climate is different to the factory location

nah... it's over son... sometimes I daydream of getting back in but I've got other stuff to do and I'm too much of a boomer
I think I miss the time and age I was in than the act of playing music, that's probably why I quit

damn that’s fucked. you should still be able to enjoy playing by yourself if you already have the experience. I like guns more than I like instruments, maybe give that a try

Broken Chairs

245 lbs of tubby

Checks out, lmao

which tone improvements should I prioritize?

pickup change

new extension cab

EQ pedal

can't replace the guitarist, you son of a bitch.

parametric eq is 80% of the tone

like the MXR one?
also, 80%, really?

eq
mxr or boss

Practice
Thats how you improve your tone you consumerist piece of garbage

I wanna participate but I'm too much of a cunt to answer the question!

sad.

I'm serious
Tone doesn't matter
Most songs nowadays sound exactly the same
Practice your fucking instrument

the difference between most pickups and woods is mostly just frequency response
maybe pickups can have different sustain or attack or some other shit (that depends on the height too ig) but the tone is genuinely 90% signal processing in the preamp and the biggest difference between a cheap amp and an expensive amp is the speaker quality because the electronics are digital anyway

Acceptable

Unacceptable

[male name]

Gotta be an ugly female name though
Guitars should only be named shit like Bessie

Anyone own an active bass? How fast do you burn through batteries?

tone is what inspires you to play the guitar in the first place.

what is that sound, how do I make it?

otherwise, just play cello desu

i spent all night with doug

:/

i spent all night with jessica

:0

it's a fucking tool i fucking hate when people anthropologize fucking objects that's how you end up with brand royalty and the bootlicking that's hilariously rampant in both audio and music industries

Not ugly names, just old-fashioned names. Like Lucille (I was going to put a picture of Lucille Ball, but she looks too much like my grandma even at a young age to look attractive to me).

yeah i bet this slab of wood cost $5k to make
what a fucking joke
people dont even play instruments or listen to music they just jack off to gear and romanticize singers

I've had my active bass for many years and I don't remember having to change batteries on it ever (might have done it once or twice just in case). It's not my main instrument, though.

OH MY MOLOCH IS THAT A YELLOW PERSON I MUST UNLEASH THE SEMENNNN

I thought Emily Remler called her guitar Borys but then I learned its the name of the luthier

sex

but then I learned its the name of the luthier

ok i apologize that's based

I just wanted to let you all know that I'm better at guitar than you and that you're all gay and fat.

I wanna sex a bachi bass slut too

Very much depends on the circuit. Many turn off when the jack is unplugged as plugging it in turns it on, so if you unplug it when you finish it could last a six months, year or more.
Some however are always on if it has a active switch that is on, even if it is unplugged. If I recall Fender American Ultra Jazz Bass has this issue.
Realistically if you are a heavy player you should not be using more than 2-3 a year if you don't leave the circuit on.

Giving your guitar a woman's name is like wearing a fedora. You can pull it off if you have massive levels of charisma, but if you don't carry it properly it'll be painfully embarrassing.
