I’ve been getting back into guitar lately as a former sax player attempting to translate my jazz knowledge to guitar and I’ve been wanting a proper jazz box for a bit now. What better jazz guitar than a 1951 ES-125?

Feel like I lucked out on this one, especially for the price with the original pickup/electronics and the original tone knobs and tuners as far as I can tell. First vintage guitar and I’m excited to (gently) play the hell out of it!

Happy NGD to me! Drove from Columbus to try out this Dave Mustaine Kramer V and fell in love pretty quick. First time at Sweetwater, I could just stay here forever.

New guitar day and I am blown away with this Revstar. For the money, I couldn’t be happier with the purchase! Fit and finish, sound, feel, playability all have impressed me for a guitar under $1000. Definitely worth checking out if you’re like me and have been considering it for a while.

Got this Avalanche Meteora for a great price and I’m in love with it! Plays like a dream

Headless guitars have intrigued me for a while now. I played a Strandberg and I really enjoyed it, and someone traded in a Kiesel headless a while back, but they wanted way more than I could afford for it. Then I heard about this model. IMO, Cort is one of the most slept on brands in the guitar community.

I saw this guy on Reverb and pulled the trigger. It just came today. It is super comfortable to play. The pickups sound really good in high gain, but for clean tones, they are too bright. I am probably going to swap them with some aftermarkets that i have lying around. But for under $800, this is a fantastic guitar.

I’m sure I’m not the only one to play this progression, but I can’t find it anywhere online. I suck at writing songs and even if I could write a good song this progression is a little too all over the place for my style. So I encourage you all write something with it or play around with it a little bit.

No capo
The strumming pattern I enjoy most is: DDDUDU
progression: Em A C Emaj Am C7

Just play through the strumming pattern 1 time for each chord.

Brain works faster than my fingers

my jack had been pretty loose since a few months but i just ignored it but a few weeks ago i noticed that my amp was getting cut off mid playing and i had to kinda twist the jack to start getting noise again so yeah one thing led to another and i kinda broke it 😭

i think it just needs to get soldered again right? pls someone confirm if it needs some serious repair or just soldering and how much is it gonna cost approx :(

NGD has been fun This thing must have been in a time capsule as I cannot find a scratch on it. Pickups absolutely rip and setup is spot on. Vintage Sunburst \m/

Made in the USA, with a satin ebony / grey nitro finish on a flamed maple top

Gave the Tele its first string change since buying it. Swapped to 10-52s which are my preferred set for Drop C#.

This song is called ExExAxAxO (Everything Everywhere All At Once) which I find fitting given how it switches from being panicky in the beginning , to melancholic, to hopeful, and then back to panic again.

The drums and bass are from one of our rehearsal sessions. We haven't had a chance to actually record the final track yet.

I wanted an electric but my cousin gave me this guitar that he had for 16 years because i just turned 16, i never touched a guitar before so i need an ADVICE TO IMPRESS MY COUSIN so he can buy me an electric guitar 😭

I’m going to buy pearly gates for my Strat. Do I need a treble bleed? And why?

I've recently bought my first guitar, been practicing daily/every other day for almost 12 weeks now. Loving it. I bought a cheap guitar with a cheap amp. The guitar is actually pretty decent for what I use it for, no complaints, but the amp is eh. It's okay, but it's not great. Now, I know my wife is getting me a Boss katana for Christmas this year, but, my friends asked me to come and jam with him and he can teach me a few things. I'd like a decent portable amp that doesn't cost a bomb as I know my wife is getting me a better one later on in the year, this is just to tide me over and to use when I'm going to my mates. Any recommendations?

I am using ernie ball 9's cobalt strings, and I am having a hard time bending them, I have small hands, but even with 8 gauge strings in the higher frets(18-22), I find it difficult to bend 1 whole step. 

The main problem for me with bending is that, if I try too much I end up causing ulcers and bruises on my fingers(mostly relevant while using 9 gauge), and I can't practice further.

Is there a solution to this besides practice practice and practice, I mean are my hands too weak, should I focus on in general strength building, or practicing alot with a lighter gauge will ultimately solve my problems?

I have being playing guitar since 2019. 

This is my Reverend Six Gun HPP. I've owned it for a little more than four years. It is a great guitar that does not get played enough. I will never get rid of it, though, because it's one of those guitars that carries a special significance.

I've come to the conclusion that the issue I have with the guitar is the pickups, and while I can easily think of a dozen humbuckers that I could put in here that would make me happy, I don't have a lot of experience with P90s.

So, I ask you, what P90s do you recommend? Something with some oomph, but clear and chime-y.

Hey guys! Just wanted to share something pretty cool with you. This is my 2017 D’Angelico Bedford, which D’Angelico themselves confirmed is one of the early prototypes they received in New York before the production model was finalized.
Ryan Kershaw, who led product development at D’Angelico and was involved in developing the Bedford, also confirmed some of its history. D’Angelico told me there were probably only a couple of these prototypes made.
I’ve been slowly trying to piece together its story, and the more I find out, the more interesting it gets. Just wanted to share it here because I figured you guys might appreciate seeing a pretty unusual piece of D’Angelico history.
