Composing solos is kindof lame anyway. It's way better to do spur-of-the-moment improvisation.I hellof got a Duncan soundhole pickup for my Kay for Atheist Kids Get Cool Shit Day, as well as a Boss DD-20. I'm jazzed as fuck.
Quote from: DynamiteKid on 24 Dec 2007, 09:27Because you can write a solo without knowing the scales. These days I mostly ignore them anyway.You can write solos - good solos - without knowing scales. The chances that they won't clash with a chord progression when you know nothing about the scales is very very slim, however, and it distortion only makes it worse.Anyone who learns chords should know at least the notes that make those chords and a few basic guidelines of composition and scale theory at some point. Hell, knowing scale theory can mean you never have to learn a scale on its own again.

Yeah this is probably what I neglected to say, is that while I ignore the scales, I had to learn them first to ignore them. When I write I just deliberately to write stuff with non-diatonic notes and chords in it, but I wouldn't be able to do that very well without knowing the theory first.
I'm like the boy who cried "you guys are faggots"

I also have an upright..
Wait so you're letting something that happened 10 years ago ruin your quality of life? What are you, America?
I'd love to get an upright bass someday.
Is there any way to keep the maple fretboard but dye it black or something? I'm not attached enough to the maple tone to never trade it up for real rosewood, but new necks are hells of expensive.
Listen to SLOAN you CUNTS.
Have there really been any true fung fu movies in the last ten years? I vote NO.
So guys, I'm taking my Dano in for a setup soon, and I'm wondering what kind/guage strings to put on it. I have no idea what kind are on there now. Advice?
I have a question for you guys. This is the current object of my affections (sorry Eastwood)It plays like a beast, and is absolutely gorgeous. Also I usually prefer maple necks. But shit, tell me this guitar wouldn't look better with a rosewood fretboard?Is there any way to keep the maple fretboard but dye it black or something? I'm not attached enough to the maple tone to never trade it up for real rosewood, but new necks are hells of expensive.Maybe if I got it aged it'd look nicer. But brand new and sparkling clean it looks really ehhh.
BITCH I'MA CUT YOU
BITCHES, I ALSO REQUIRE BRAND ADVICEThanks for the tips!
The song that can be sung is not the great Song.
break a string every other week.
I just got an old Danelectro Baritone. I've started using instead of bass, and I'm loving it.
