Guitar Discussion Thread V7 - More strings the better - General

I like having a wound G. I know a lot of people don't like them but they just have a better sound imo.

[QUOTE=PwnNoobsFtw;29095663]Real men tune to drop Z[/QUOTE] So downtuned, the strings touch the ground

[QUOTE=kitthehacker;29106444]So downtuned, the strings touch the ground[/QUOTE] The deepest I went (tone was still recognisable because OKAY tension) with my 80 string on my 27.7 scale prs guitar was 19 half steps below normal E! Which is 2 half steps deeper than a normal tuned 5 string bass. I loved every moment of it.

[QUOTE=ButtsexV2;29106248]I like having a wound G. I know a lot of people don't like them but they just have a better sound imo.[/QUOTE] The definitely sound fatter and actually compliment the tone I'm after but I'm not used to them being there :p

My J bass is from 2009 and I haven't replaced the strings once, any recommendations?

My recommendation is that you replace the strings.

Gonna get a Frank Bello Squier as my next bass. How awesome is this?

Trying to learn a Nick Drake song is hard when you've scalded your fingers with coffee that morning :smith: Some higher power does not want me to practice

Awww yeaah I can now use all my five fingers of my picking hand on one string, now all I have to do is build up the speed and coördination for all fingers.

Godddamnit. First I have to pawn shit to afford bareknuckles, and now I find out that for some stupid reason I still can't do bends well, except on [i]bass[/i]. Those are just fine and dandy no fucking problem. I must be a mutant. :ohdear:

[QUOTE=Nonikai;29111283]Welcome to my domain swebonny[/QUOTE] I bow to thee, master Nonikai. In other news, I broke the high E string on my guitar after it refused to bend. I got mad and pushed with all four fingers, it snapped and somehow managed to sting my right pinky.

I have found the pedal I need in my life. [url]http://www.strymon.net/products/lex/?utm_source=Strymon+Newsletter&utm_campaign=a48af43881-newsletter03-17-2011&utm_medium=email#tab9[/url]

[QUOTE=nardix;29110947]Rotosound 66 .045-.105[/QUOTE] Thanks :v: In other news, I took my Orange Strat to a custom shop. I didn't want to screw up drilling out holes for my new tuners on a 150 dollar neck, 22 dollars is worth the safety. He also said I set up my string height for slide gutiar :doh:

Could go for Ernie Ball Super Slinkies, .045 - .100

tuned my destroyer to b standard the other night and I just now realized that I'm playing a 7 string minus the top e

anyone got any good metal tones for pod farm, everything just seems too loud and trebley no matter what I do

"metal" "too loud"

[QUOTE=absinthe;29113642]"metal" "too loud"[/QUOTE] for recording purposes anyway, just sounds way too noise filled with no clarity to any of the notes, just literal loudness

i think i'm going to buy a bass big muff for my electric guitar :p
