i need to get my singing sorted out first

very new to coming up with my own notes on guitar and wanted to know how well this translates being sad

It sounds sort of like an existential leap from contemplating something, could be sad but could be something else.

what would u change to make it provoke more sadness, you know?

dude thats just an arpeggiated minor chord dude lmao

how the fuck am i meant to know the shit guitar didn't come with an instruction manual

It's not really up to me, but i think the first thing you played was like a minor arpeggio, if you create more context around that it might work. If it already sounds good to you though don't change it.

lmao go read a theory book

How does one create more context around it, like add play some extra notes with the pre existing notes?

good thread already

Look up the minor arpeggio scale, then find where your notes fit in the pattern with that scale, then the notes around it you can play and it will sound good together, the pattern that you played will fit in as a fretboard pattern with the scale, pretty much wherever you find it is where the other notes are in relation to it.

i was told music theory was for piano and sheet music
is it useful? why cant i just google chords and scales and stuff

TY very much, this shit feels like cheating

I barely know any theory I make it up as I go along I think theory would be useful for bridging to other keys while playing though. I still haven't learned the minor scales, I only know major, minor arpeggio, blues, pentatonic, and major.

I'm down to practice and learn the scales but what does that net me in the long run?

I think recognizing the notes that are available in the current key is useful, you can practice them up and down at first then you can do all sorts of jumps and combinations in that pattern. You will have better literacy in writing melodies the more you combine different notes of any scale.

Reminds me of maggot brain and thats a good thing.

checked and tyvm helpful guitar user
I'll learn major, pentatonic major, and melodic minor to start, these ones are good?

I honestly don't know, I would start with major because that's what I did, then I learned pentatonic. Major will sound like classical music and pentatonic will sound like music from asia if you just play the raw scales though.

How many frets of major scale did you learn?
theres the one on 0th freth, and then 3rd, and 5th, correct?

the major scale has as much frets as your guitar

playing with your legs crossed like that is awkward

I learned it to be able to move to any key, C pentatonic major: the one that starts on the 5th is the easiest, I only really have that one and the ones directly above and beneath that pattern down really well, otherwise I'm looking for tricks of memory where the other notes are. Also knowing where the octaves of the note you are playing is super helpful.

holy shit you're right
do i learn them all?

I play like that sometimes, mostly because the armrest of my chair gets in the way

I like it

yes

this is fuckin hell, i need to sing

So im meant to memorize all 20 C major scales
then all 20 C#/Db scales
then all 20 D scales.

thats literally 220 scales just for MAJOR,
and there is like 50 scales,
is this a meme?

Just like every words you know, music is a language.

bad troll

and blues licks are like nigger slang

coming from classical guitar to electric, is arpeggios from hell a good solo to start practicing speed/shredding?

been playing for over a year now and tonight is the first time ive ever played a scale

whatever makes you sleep at night.

no, man. Just learn one pattern with the root on the low E string and move that around. If you learn what note all the frets on the low E- and A-string are, you can form whatever chords you think about from knowing the root. thats when guitar started to become intuitive to me

bad for you

Kek, I haven't laugh genuinely in a long time, thanks for that.

how good am i at talking like a nigher youtu.be/if6FSrgJdPI

kinda confused man,
all-guitar-chords.com

i learned the 0th fret C major scale, and the 1st fret one is easy enough, then the 2nd fret one is pretty different, and the 3rd fret one is pretty fucked as well, they are all different, so how am i meant to learn every single one?
they are not the same pattern as 0th fret scale

Pure nigger product

Thankfully there's only 12 notes

the petatonic scale is the nigger's smaller vocabulary

get me a clean tone, I want to try something

you dont have to learn more than one pattern for the scale.Say you play the C major scale with the root on the 8th fret of the low E. If you just move the whole thing down one fret you are playing the b major scale. Move it down two more frets and you are playing the A major scale

>petatonic
Lmfao retard

You're really awful, even if you're a nigger you barely speak their language. You're basically one of those niggers that mutter out stuff that can't be understood while drooling

I really want to burn $800 on an aluminum neck. I like the tuning stability and no-truss-rod-fuckery thing. I like noise rock -- they're pretty common in the genre. The necks are pretty thin -- I have small hands because I'm a manlet. I have a project bass body that I want to slap a neck onto -- currently I use a bass with jazz style pickups and the project bass has precision humbuckers.

But honestly, I'm pretty sure the biggest reason I want an aluminum neck is because it'll look cool as fuck. Which is a retarded reason to want one. And yet I do.

Talk me out of it. Talk me into it. I just need a second opinion.

just get a regular maple neck and finish the thing with a chrome gloss.

I mean why the fuck not? A big part of why I bought a Gibson Firebird is because I think they look cool

If you're looking for tuning stability, neck thru' or 3/5/Whetever pieces neck, can do the trick.

If that's just for style, go for it.

Vintera a shit
Highway one are up in price because there is no MIA standard.

Fuck i wish they had released this with a trem.
im gonna buy one anyway
