Want to learn guitar, always wanted to learn it. I know I always hangat hangat taik ayam, my budget around Rm500 ~ RM600. Tomorrow if I'm free maybe cabut go to music store (where are in KL, Pertama/Cambell still got?). Hehehe brand preference, Fender/Ibanez, hehe. Wanna go together also can but sometime work, get the best out of me so cancel. I will not belanja, sendiri jalan sendiri tanggung unless you're transsexual female who plays guitar. I've read a lot bout them, there's a post somewhere in /K can't remember the post. Quite interested with them, in be-friending them la... don't think dirty la woi

unless you're transsexual female who plays guitar.

this..

Hape bende, bai?

Pretty hard to get a good electric guitar around that budget you've posted. Trust me a lot of problems when starting without a good one. I suggest you go snag up an amp first, there's a good one selling in garage sales (Kustom 12 gauge)

Meantime borrow guitars from friends and build up your path (blues/rock/metal/all-rounder) - here onwards you'll learn to select guitars to suit you. Do note some players prefer to suit themselves for a specific guitar.

Berapa herge bang? Tak nak high end sangat...

Planning to hook it up to Rocksmith and learn from there

I think they call it overdrive.

I love this in particular, closer to the end

its called vibrator... i mean vibrato

600 can get 2nd hend squier bullet je bang... or ibanez gio... kasi up sikit budget baru best... baru ada motivasi

your budget is too low

only ones i could think of

Ibz GAX (sounds like shit tho)
used pacifica (that also i think more since a new one is about 1k+++)
SX guitar
Cort
i dont think you can get a good fender with that price tag as if im not mistaken a fender CV is also 1k ++

you could use a used SX or a Cort if they have one in your price range, owh yea make sure got fixed bridge

Yeah, is ok but with titties it surely would be great. Anyway thanks man

My favourite is the double pick-up Yamaha

Btw, say if I'm a complete noob.
Should I start with acoustic or proceed straight to electric?

1k... ,

if you like a girl, do you go for her sister ?

only prb with acoustics is a lot of people go cheap on them so they buy the cheapest shittiest gutiar on the block that is hard to play.

then tell the whole universe that acoustics are hard

Why not start with an acoustic?
I started with one, 21 fret.

And if you're starting to learn how to play one,
Never EVER skip the basics.
NEVER.

.. I've felt the consequences.

Acoustic, where got class one. Go electric, rock on...

if u interested to learn acoustic, go for acoustic, if u r more into song that use electric guitar, learn electric guitar....

although both are guitar, but they r different on how theyare played

FUUUUU
I thought guitar are all the same?
Cheap guitar are harder to learn as compare to the pricey ones?
Again, can I go straight to electric guitar and skip the acoustic ones?
I already got an acoustic at home.

Beginners might give up easily if they started with acoustics coz the string is too hard.

It's always better for beginners to begin with electric guitars.

So how much should I budget for a good electric guitar so that I can play like David Gilmour or the dude in the gun n roses video?

when u began to recognized note, u'll hate it...

u'll swear why the guitar always not in tune and sounds horrible.... it will demotivate u eventually

Acoustics IS the classy one, brah.

Yeah, that's the way go. Go for electric guitar.

BTW, there ain't many trans female who plays guitar here /K eh?

Im one

well if they are all the same then no one will pay for expensive guitars.

technically, yea cheaper guitars both eletrics and acoustics tend to have rather basic workmanship also the distance bewtween the strings and the fret can be rather high, expensive ones you can put it very low etc etc.

you are not skipping anything , they are both guitars but the way its approached is diff.

nak beli fender? boleh.... fender squier

nak beli ibanez? boleh.... ibanez gio

OH! Now this explain why my acoustic at home is so damn hard to play.
My sister bought it and now it was left behind collecting dust and nobody else at home is playing it.
Same goes to the piano.

Sorry to say, I'm not into classical music but I do love Gypsy Kings. I'm more to 70's 80's rock old skool style, man

acoustic guitar are not djent enuf...

kalau nk main macam slash, kenalah beli guitar slash



Gibson Slash Les Paul Signature




pasti boleh goreng solo november rain mcm slash

FUK Pedr0, itu moustache bikin geli la. Trans female bukan Trans male...

Might be, but if they gave up easily,
then might as well just forget it.
They ain't getting anywhere without efforts and persistence.

first time playing? learning?

take up semi acoustic better. if u so much want to go plugged in.

and rocksmith? ubisoft? crap gimmick lol.

hard to say, a lot of us started with cheap guitars

hell theres a RM300++ yamaha C310 around in my room

i read this oledi know hangat2 tahi ayam mia style

u wan elec coz u wanna look stylo and wanna show off only kan?

Well, of course, I was just saying.
So you're into the likes of Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, Pink Floyd, Motley Crue, AC/DC and co's eh?
Good luck then

How much that shit gonna cost on estimation?

agree with this. semi acoustic is nice to learn acoustic and also electric in same time.

but need to use amp which have built-in effects, or add extra pedals

when got the fundamentals, then can go for full electric

for me personally, i prefer more acoustic because for me the sound produced is more 'natural'.

dunno... RM10k+ kut

Awww yeaaaaah I love that kind of figure!

i think the custom shop ones are about 20k ++

Persepsi beginner --> buy new cheap electric n expect can shred or gilmour solo. Truth u need to go through a lot of pain and time wasting before you can achieve that level.

After 2-3 months bukak thread WTS kt garage sale

thats bcoz u want to learn n play acoustic song...

if he want to learn n play metallica, kinda pointless to buy a semi acoustic... with all the effect still not the same

ok la tu

'proper' entry / student guitar

now c310 probably rm 150-200

nowadays tukar tu c40 liao, same price

probably its one of those rm100 kapok ones..

its still considerably quite hard to play cause in guitar terms, its quite cheap

I saved like 3yrs to buy my epiphone rm1800 and another 5years to upgrade it rm900. Not alot by today's standards but back in 1996 as a form 5 student it meant alot of hungry days and tired part time job for dat...

Show off to /K only, just something else to do la wei

Trade-in for something better

That's exactly what happen to my PS3.
I was watching GT5 video on youtube & was sold by the graphic.
Then I bought my PS3 justo try on the GT5 and sold off both a week after.

ye la

tapi dia kan newbie

dia expect dapat je guitar tu he can oledi start shredding, bending and such

he thinks with that crap rocksmith its gonna make everything easier

he shud start with the basic, proper sitting position, proper pose, proper handling, proper fingering, proper pacing, relaxing, using metronome

and start with strumming basic chords, before going to plucking singles and scales.

its already hard enough for a newbie to sound good on an acoustic..

forget the glory of playing amped riffs and shitz with dozens of effects, he couldnt even strum a decent sounding chord yet

he needs the essential, PROPER basics

even more so that hes self learning

every shitty sounds he gets while learning will be amplified, the buzz and noise on the heavier strings

he'll quit sooner than if he were to start with an acoustic

Really good explanation, back to basic 101 guitar playing.

Ada ke brand fender/ ibanez rm 500 - 600

orrr.. you can just skip the acoustics/classicals like me and go for baritone. 1st few month totally noob and know nothing and stopped 3 years. now back gloriously \m/

(no dont be like me, im just a guitar enthusiast and i dont play that much also, just being able to play is good enough)

currently jamming to this:


*headbangs*

w electric guitar also can learn basic, at;east after eeach lesson he can play simple chord on his favourite song w similar sound....

important is need good teachr so foundation is solid... if not bcum like me.... learn from utube, keep changing how to hold pick, stgill cant follow beat

PVCpipe what brand/model you're currently using?

U nak murah yamahak la yg paling ok... Sx aku x sure... Tapi murah gak

rm900+ for epiphone les paul

rm??? for amp of your choice, or buy the guitar to pc adapter thingy, but make sure your sound card can support it

Dont go cheap, the horrible sound will kill your motivation

there is no right way to hold a pick or play.. find your own sound.. not mindless pentatonic zombie scale playing robot.

tokai, les paul type

haih... see yngwie play, pick like him, see gilbert play, follow him, then a dude say better to not fan out ur finger, then i follow him... now better than bfore la... just hold the pick as it suit me

yngwie play with scalloped neck and super heavy gauge.. hard to follow his style
haha, later sweep picking la.. string skipping la.. finger tapping all campur campur..

Unker very knowledgable in guitars also harr

buy low guitar price sound play like shit

aiyoh 20years ago play liao, every month buy guitar world mag for lessons.. too bad skill didnt improve for 20years..

Epi les paul standard baru smangat. Nk lagi smangat, gibson les paul. Real man play les paul

Once saw a vid of him playing a classical song on a classical guitar with a pick. Damn kau painful to listen wei

hahahaha

same here. 10 years until now skill also never improve one

just keep buying guitar gear syok sendiri je

wah how much gear u got liao?

600 dapat entry level ibanez..... ibanez gio to be specific

playbility 7/10
finishing 3/10

lol, aint that what all guitarists do

satu MIJ Fender Mustang
satu Ibanez RGA42
satu VOX Night Train Head + Cab
satu Zoom 9.2TT (bought 2nd hand from a LYN forumer, damn nice condition lagi)

nearly wanted to buy a Gibson LP in Thailand liao, lucky not enough money that time and later on i stopped playing liao saved RM7k there

if all guitarists also skill no improve in 10 years then i would feel much better

wah got mustang summore

should have bought the LP..what model, standard ar?
but that guitar dem heavy,.. play some time, neck pain liao..hahaha

i think a lot liddat lo

first 3 years, improve like fuk,

7 years following. improvement little

my guitar technical skills are worse than the first 3 years i took it up, coz i no play fast liao lol

I stopped playing once I started working, but GAS attacks once in a while. The doctor prescribed me this during my recent bout.

Traditional Cherry Burst, damn heavy no poke holes inside like Standard one... very

yaaa agreed

just started playing again last weekend and was shocked at how slow my fingers have become

very

buy buy buy

erm bro, all gibsons since the 80s got holes, its just u get swiss cheese or kosong flavour.

yea wei, but now i dont enjoy fast solo music so its ok la

slow nevermind la, for me, now tone more important..
u can never win notes per second race with the youtube fellas anyway..

ehhhh also got holes punya ka

Hnhhhggghhhh

yea they drill 6-8 holes at the top corner of the body



the swiss cheese 6-8 holes is the old traditional weight relief from the 80s all gibsons from then to the 90s had it with an exception for a few. the traditionals use this now and i think most Gibson's that say = non weight relief

the chambered appeared in 08 for the standards i think, then it went on for a few years then now gibson use the modern chambered in the standard models

all gibson models inc custom shop are somewhat like this, there are some full solids out there la, but u never know.

the one people b**** about is hte neck tenon

ohhhh thanks for the information sifu!

Complex gila, no pain no gain... gonna break tabung and see how much I got. Some of you otai's after 10, 20 years experiences and with an awesome series of axes without practice still can't play. Still respect you guys

My dream guitar is 'musicman'...even u tarik2 whammy bar still tune x lari... 'floyd rose' damn malas nak kena 'nut lock'..

Pergh lagi technical, nut job aku tahu nut lock kena belaja dengan kau

use lo pro edge, dive bomb until crazy also no problem. ask steve vai and gang

Buy a good acoustic, then if you feel passionate after 6-12 months, then its time to get an electric...

Started out with acoustic and my first song I learn was Pirates of The Caribbean theme
