Guitar Discussion thread V5 - General

Any suggestions on recording interfaces? I'm thinking the M-Audio fast track pro because I hear good things about that one a lot.

I am loving the fuck out of my new Les Paul. Still trying to get the tone to my liking, though.

did you shave yet

I think I've got it. Epiphone is saying you should learn some Rites of Spring and Fugazi and At The Drive-In songs

Alright, my mom doesnt want me blowing all my money on the RR3 and wants me to spend $100 down, and then $50 every two weeks. It would take me almost 4 and a half months to get it that way. FUCK THAT, im putting $200 down tommarow, $150 down in two weeks, and the last $100 down after another two weeks /rant

[QUOTE=mynames2long;23236605]He seems like a giant douchebag[/QUOTE] Blasphemy! [editline]06:48AM[/editline] [QUOTE=Xenocidebot;23236159]Where does he get his shit manufactured? I was considering the ML1 until I read complaints that the QC was horrendous and the necks were made really crappily.[/QUOTE] Really? Didn't hear about that. Apparently Rob is going to take a part in the set-up of all the guitars, so hopefully any problems will be spotted by him. With the ML1, he never saw most of them so the only QC would be the crappy QC in the chinese factory.

[QUOTE=Epic Sandwich;23245523]chinese factory.[/QUOTE] Oh. Not worrying about buying one of them anymore.

Only cost me 120 dollars, bought it off of a college kid who lives in my apartment building. It's in great condition, and I saved some money too. I looked at the same bass at my local guitar place and it was priced at 300 dollars.

Yeah, haven't ever seen one like that. Sweet.

Maybe a FPer has encountered this problem: I have a generic cable, one end audio (Plugged into the "record out/headphones" jack of my Peavey Vypyr), one end USB (Plugged into my computer). I cannot find "USB Microphone" under either Audacity or Windows 7 itself. Thoughts?

Anyone have the chords for "Snow ((Hey Oh))" from the part "The more I see the less I know, the more I'd like to let it go" onwards? Don't Say Ultimate Guitar, non of them were very accurate.

[QUOTE=Shibbey;23253159][IMG]http://imgur.com/q7Ses.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] Are you sure it's not some sort-of funky line-in cable?

[QUOTE=Shibbey;23253159][IMG]http://imgur.com/q7Ses.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] I don't really understand that cable, if it functions as you expect it to it must have a analogue to digital converter implemented in to it. . I don't know what it's used for really. An easy way of recording would be to get a double ended 3.5mm audio cable. One end into the amp's headphone/recording/line out jack, the other to your computers line in. It's not the best way to do it, but it;s certainly the cheapest.

For christ sake he's letting people vote on the specs for guitars with his name attached. That's a hell of lot more than what he has to and what most other people do if you ask me

Can't you use those cables to turn your amp into a speaker for your PC or something? I have one of those AUX imputs on my MFX.

[QUOTE=kitteh-nator;23254537]Can't you use those cables to turn your amp into a speaker for your PC or something? I have one of those AUX imputs on my MFX.[/QUOTE] I think that has to be what that's used for, because it definitely isn't anything going from the amp to the computer. [QUOTE=Shibbey;23254488]Tried that, my mic slot is borked. I had a direct guitar --> USB cable but I wanted amp effects and stuff.[/QUOTE] Considered a cheap interface? I mean, you could get the Guitar Rig or Waves one for $100 new. Or this: [url]http://www.buy.com/prod/guitar-to-usb-interface/q/loc/101/204983689.html[/url]

[QUOTE=Larry_G;23227751]Sigh, I'm getting really tired of this. I'm a left handed player and I'm looking for a good quality guitar. At the moment, I have an Epihone Les Paul Standard Plus which is really a decent guitar for its price. But I want something better. I first wanted an Ibanez JS900, not too expensive and a great guitar, but then I found out they only made a left handed version of the JS1200 which is $2000+. Same goes any left handed Gibson. Then I came along an American Standard Strat for a good $1000. A fair price for a great guitar. The only thing that bothers me is the single coil in the bridge position. I usually play (heavy) rock and blues so a single coil won't always satisfy my needs. So basically I'm looking for a left handed HSS Stratocaster (with a humbucker in the bridge position). But then I noticed that Fender doesn't make left handed versions of their HSS strats. [B]TL;DR [/B]Can I replace the single coil in the bridge of a stratocaster with a humbucker without too much trouble? [editline]01:10PM[/editline] Or suggest me a good left handed guitar for about $1000 :v:[/QUOTE] High five lefty bro.

[QUOTE=kitteh-nator;23254537]Can't you use those cables to turn your amp into a speaker for your PC or something? I have one of those AUX imputs on my MFX.[/QUOTE] I'm already doing that. :v: [QUOTE=Xenocidebot;23254614]Considered a cheap interface? I mean, you could get the Guitar Rig or Waves one for $100 new.

It's also far from expensive in the grand scheme of things
