"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.”

That's still mostly power chords (minus the solo bits). Bark at the Moon, Crazy Train has some neat chords.

Try Walk Don't Run by the Ventures. It's a really nice E based barre chord progression and a lot of fun to play. And it's awesome practice for barre chords as well.
Get a Haircut by George Thorogood is really good as well, nice G-C-D blues progression. Good practice for switching around.

new guitar in progress like this one...
mine will be similar to this, it is a cross between a telecaster deluxe and a jazzmaster. this one is basically just an offset telecaster custom, mine will have...
-jazzmaster neck pickup
-telecaster bridge pickup with bigsby bridge plate
-modified mustang bridge
-1970 jaguar trem
-maple neck with black binding, black block inlays, and a colour matched headstock
-paint will be olympic white, slightly aged hopefully, and an red tort pickguard.
my inspiration...
cbs era styles y0
not sure if i'll go warmoth for the neck, or fretworks, but i'll probably go with a profile similar to my sg classic, massive as hell.

Got a question, I'm going on a trip to Florida and I kinda want to bring my bass guitar with me so I can jam with my bro.
Should I bring my bass on a softcase or a hardcase?
I kinda gearing toward bringing a softcase so I can back pack the thing but just worried it may get damaged by baggage handlers.
Thoughts?

I'd say hardcase...

I work at westjet, and I'm going to tell you right now to bring a hardcase. I wouldn't bring a $100 guitar in a softcase on a flight.
Loosen all the strings before you fly as well.

Just picked up another guitar. Figured I would give Ibanez another shot and managed to be bag a REALLY rare 7 string baritone, 2077XL, on eBay for about half their normal going price.
One thing I don't get is why on a guitar was $1500ish new, it still has the really, really, really shitty Ibanez brand pickups in it. These things are complete garbage.

Ok so probably a silly question, a baritone guitar is different because it has extra frets and a longer scale length, making it somewhere between a bass and a regular guitar?

not necessarily extra frets, but it is longer, and usually tuned to C instead of E.Originally posted by 4wheeldrift

so.. i usually never post on beyond, but then i came across this thread. we have this reward site at work we can order stuff off of and i chose to get a guitar, acoustic. i finally received it today, high in anticipation and realized, i no nothing about music! or guitars for that matter. can someone guide where to start? a DIY website or a youtube subscription would be nice. its frustrating not knowing how to do anything, but then u realize, guitars are fucking cool.
thanks
