Would you all recommend a Strat as a first electric guitar? I've been playing acoustic for 2 years now.

Which minor scale do you think sounds best?
I love the harmonic minor scale as I like that sort of middle eastern vibe it has. But I find myself writing songs in melodic minor more though

Absolutely. I hate Strats, but it's a good guitar as it's easy to play and easy to fix

I'm a neet and wanna start practicing guitar a lot more. Anyone here practice long hours? How did you get started and do you have any tips?

here is a recording so you can get an idea of y skill level now and tell me anything i should work on if you are so inclined.

When I was like 16 and first starting to get serious about guitar I would practice around 6-8 hours a day. It was mostly discipline and forcing myself to do it. Structured practice is better than jamming and noodling for actually learning and improving technique

this is sam dont click.

i dont know who sam is, it's not me. im new here.

Have any of you played in a band? What was it like? I might join a band after quarantine is over.

A HSS strat can handle everything reasonably well

You really can't go wrong with a strat. The entire line from squires to mim to mia are high quality nowadays.

you kinda have to fight with strats to play them, no comfortable place for your picking hand.
If you've played one and like it, go for it. You're going to soften your technique, like a lot. Just transferred from acoustic myself, ripped a few chords and thought the shop ripped me off.

If $ and space was not an issue, what Boss Katana would you get?

What Katana model would you get for a living room?


What Katana model for a bedroom?

(Is bigger better?)

During HS - A lot of shenanigans of shit talk behind people's back. Drama with sluts. Adventures of being under the influence at too young of age, a lot of dumb shit. Recording the most cliche punk rock shit and thinking it was amazing. Making drone feedback and thinking is was amazing sunn0)))

After HS, A lot better musicianship, better music all around. Better improvising. No drama. No bullshit. More grooves and jams.

I was an emergency replacement for a friend. It was a funk band so it was a giant style adjustment for me. But getting thrown into an established band was exciting and everyone was pretty mature/supportive.

Join a band, even if its not your style you can learn a lot and grow as a musician

The 100 has an effects loop, I regret getting the 50 because it doesn't have one.

100 because you can also control it with their gafc footswitch for maximum versatility

>After trying out some American guitars, I finally played a japanese guitar, a Tokai. It was flawless and infinitely better than what's made here. That's when I realized that girls are the same way.
What did he mean by this?

dude did you really just sit down and smack random frets for 20 minutes?
ngl though i kinda dug the last 4 minutes

How far are your strings from your frets on your guitar?
I have to file down a slotted nut, and would like to know how big to make the shim for when I do it

In a band currently. It's a LOT of playing the same thing over and over and over to nail timing. And songs are written in chunks and those chunks are played over and over.

Massively varies on you choice of gauge and the build of your guitar, including the frets themselves. Acoustic actions will be higher.
Always tune it and adjust the neck relief first then see how your intonation is at the first 5 frets. If the notes are sharp, file the nut slots it until they are not, then go lower based on your preference You can never get the intonation perfect, you absolutely need a guitar ruler, and always be precise.

holy fucking coom

It's an electric cheapo strat style guitar
I do not have a guitar ruler but I have a set of machinist calipers as my only accurate form of measurement

this

just picked up the american performer tele and it's all I've ever wanted

It can be great, mundane, or awful. That's just part of the ride. If the members are paying their dues in practice, then it's hard to go entirely wrong.
