So since I made the Buying a new guitar post I had wondered about MAKING my own guitar from like the start. A block of wood and it gets turned into a guitar, but I just wouldn’t know where to start neither do I have the space to do it. And I wanted to ask here because I am too lazy to type my questions in Google/ safari and have to search. But I figured I would get the best answers and advice and stuff here because it’s fun and I enjoy reading your replies and what not.

here are some of my questions:
1. What type of wood would be best for me to use for me to make the base and neck and all the major parts.
2. What tools would I need I’m sure there are tools I have not learned of I know the basic, chop saw, table saw etc. but what else is there that I would need
3. And… so far that’s all I got I’ll probably ask more later on

I'm curious to see what everyone uses and why.

I use, and for a long time have used, MuseScore because it's free and open-source and cross-platform. I've tried Sibelius and Guitar Pro, but I felt neither were worth sticking to.

• Sibelius: I bought this while I was in high school for the education price, doing amateur orchestral arrangements for my peers. Great workflow—Sibelius keypad my beloved—and obviously very high quality output, but I'd misunderstood that I was paying for a subscription, not a one-time fee, so I never renewed
• Guitar Pro (demo only): I found it confusing to use, standard notation seems to be a second-class citizen (rhythm and accidentals in GP are so hard to use), and I don't want to pay for a subscription again

Being a general notation program, MuseScore's guitar output isn't great, but it's getting better with time as users chime in, wanting better guitar output

So I was scrolling through Facebook marketplace looking for syn gates guitars to add to the collection, as one does. And I found this syn gates custom olive drab prototype and I was wondering if it was real or fake. Can someone help me find out?

Hi everyboody, there is a lot of content on this platform but for reading music I only see tablature courses. Do someone know where can I learn how to read the music language ??

I'm having issues opening the site on an Android tablet. I managed to open it in a private browser, it said it couldn't make a secure connection and to contact the owner of the site to fix it.
If I try to open it in a regular tab is doesn't load. I couldn't try to log in on the app to see if it has the same issue.


I couldn't take a screenshot of the error in private mode but this was the error code: NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID

Sooo, I am not going to be on much and I would have to convince my mom to let me have discord. But I am going to start college soon and with my mental health of being able to multitask which I can’t do that at all. Even though I live on a farm I have been having struggles between farm chores and house chores and keeping up with them and being able to do things I like and keeping things at a decent medium I guess, found a mass in my good testicle and I don’t go back for scans till like the end of the year I think. But if I get discord I will gladly join but until then I will be on my way!!

Anyone think I’d get in trouble if I passed out some of my “Zesty Rage” stickers at the A7X concert in Chicago? It’s for my twitch stream but I don’t want to break any rules and get kicked out…

Hey everyone, how have you all been?

I know it's been like, over a month since I've posted. @Christian Schulze and I had done a few of the Worlds Collide chats and we're going to continue to do them, but man I needed a break for a while. I've been really sorting my life out. It's weird what happens when things kind of finally start falling into place. I haven't played guitar much at all because I've been so busy working on my book, among other personal things. But I've noticed that there are a LOT of new faces here, and still some old ones!

So I just wanted to ask the newer students to introduce themselves, and also seeing what the alumnis have been up to here.

Much love everyone!

Hey so I’ve been practicing a lot recently (I usually aim for bout 12 hours if not minimum of 10) but since I’ve completed all my assignments and shit I don’t really know what to do besides keep repeating the same things over and over and I don’t feel like that’s the best way to grow any tips or things to practice/ideas?

:syngates:Yo Family! This months #AOTM is Kimono My House by a band that has truly flown under the radar, Sparks.

Finally, a band that I introduced to the Rev. There weren’t many, but I’m proud to have this genius collection of UCLA art grads as one of those few. Can’t take all the credit tho, Papa Gates blessed me with this 3rd eye opening collection of music.

Id prefer that you guys went into this knowing nothing. I will share my thoughts and any stories in the comments section.

Can’t wait to hear the effects of this on all of you!

All my love,

SYN

I heard through someone that there is a guy on Instagram that tone matches albums and puts them out as Kemper profiles and has plans to do a Synyster Gates page once something works out
You heard it here first.

Hey guyss, I am so happy. Yesterday I got an audition for Prambanan Jazz, it's a quite big event here. The preparation time is short, so I played the comfiest song for me, which is Hail to The King. I've played this hundreds times, but the real challenge is the strap. LOL, I'm so weak.
I use my lightest guitar, my Axion Ibanez (thanks @Ed Seith for the guitar recommendation), but still heavy but thankfully save until the song ended. LOL
Next month I'll be on the next round and performing on the event. I'll be performing For The Love of God on my Reaper. Wish me luck and stronger.

Part 3. I couldn't find the original threat. I don't know who originally created it but let this tradition continue?

So, it got me thinking, I want to do college and get a major in like web design, or possibly animation, taking animation in high school was pretty fun, I was thinking about making another video just for the fun of it and all, but I want to start a YOUUUU TUBBEE channel and like post my stop motions on there…but like I haven’t made a YouTube channel yet because I can’t upload anything yet and I want to get better supplies for my stop motion stuff. Other than guitar stop motion seems to be my other hobby, and baby talking to chickens. Other than that I would ask if y’all would subscribe if and when I do get it set up might be a couple of months till then.

Hey everyone! Just signed up recently after I learned about this site/school, of course I'm a huge Synyster fan, and I can't tell you how grateful I am that something like this exists! I tried self-teaching acoustic a while ago and it didn't go well, but my passion for learning and wanting to make music has never gone away. I'm a CVICU RN, as well as a freelance artist/illustrator. I'm always looking for new creative outlets since the ICU is a tough place and sometimes I need something more to focus my energy on. I'm a total beginner (I can restart your heart if it stops, but I can't play guitar yet to save my own life) so I would appreciate any advice/feedback as I go. I'm managing my expectations, so at this point if I can end up playing a really metal "Mary had a Little Lamb" I'll be happy. I'm looking forward to getting to know some of you!

Hello I'd like to start the discussion about accurate interactive tabs for many Avenged Sevenfold songs. As many of you know alot of these songs are very technical, not having a proper tab only adds to the stress of learning a song.
Interactive/Pro tabs also relive some of the stress of learning songs I think I would be a great feature.

So I am going to buy a new guitar, and I want to know if anyone has any recommendations, I need it to be at least under $400. I found this one but I am not sure on it https://www.glarrymusic.com/glarry-...d-hh-pickup-tiger-stripe-black-blue-p332.html

What is your guy's preferred guitar of choice? For me it's this kiesel Dc600 I got a couple years ago. Love it and I've yet to play another guitar that plays as well as it does tbh.

For Context this image was taken from the studio session on the making of “Brompton Cocktail


When searching via image on Google there are far too many options for me to single one out to be for sure. I know it isn’t an Ibanez headstock so that rules that out. A result I found was 2003 Fender Showmaster Custom Shop however I can neither confirm or deny this. If anyone else can figure out please let me know

Everyone wish a happy birthday to the legend himself and one of the great founders of this awesome community, Synyster Gates! Thank you for everything, we love you!!

Howdy,

Is there software that can record from guitar and convert it to tab ?

I can't even think of what to google for with respect to this.

cheers !

Alon, 22, guitar player of 8 years.

Will be here for a couple weeks and was looking for similar minded players (Avenged Sevenfold, Killswitch Engage, Bullet For My Valentine, Trivium, etc)

Will be glad to chat!

So recently ive been looking at how my arm is for my fretting hand and its very hard to explain but I don’t think in the right posture or position of my arm I know it takes a lot of time to get it used to but like when I stand up to play I can’t get my fingers to hit the right strings without hitting another string It’s bugging me because I’m learning a song and I struggle to get my fingers spread enough from the first fret to the third and then the fifth fret and then I look at my thumb and I end up pressing against the back of the fret board. ‍
There is more but like it irrelevant. Help meeeeeeee how do you guys play and stuff, I mean I don’t want to end up being in a bad habit way

Hi, I know it's been a while I didn't come here, I got a lot of stuffs in life but I am back with a new fan art of Synyster Gates in non pixel art chibi version

I hope you enjoy the draw
