Guitar Chord

In this post I would like to present five cool songs that I found on Jamendo. They can be a really inspiring stuff for a guitarist. The playlist is based on progressive rock/metal vibes.

We, the electric guitar players can learn quite a lot from classical guitarists.

Today, I would like to present some cool classical guitar riffs. They can be helpful to improve your style of playing. On todays playlist are: Anton Glushkin, Alain Everts and Andrew Perez. (from ReverbNation)

Hey guys! How are u doing?

I got a question from a guy withnick name Stephen of Ibelin:
"Dude , where to get a cheap and reasonable electric guitar, been wanting to jam for along time but dont know how much or what kind of electric guitar need to get , thnx,"

So, i like to answer the question here hence hoping it also helping you guys.

Actually there are a lot of music store that sells a lot of guitar at a lot of price range. I totally believe that as normal people like us we want something cheap and but with good quality of making and sound.

Before we start going to buy a guitar I suggest you need to know what guitar specification that u need.

I m more talking about to choose electric guitar. Let say you are more playing ryhthm guitar with less solo and less playing the tremolo. THen, u dont need the floating bridge and locknut. Also, 3 single coil pickup will do. I believe u dont need 24 frets fingerboard. Just get the 21 or 22 frets will be sufficient. This kind of guitar normally suits u if u play sone kind of light and easy type of song.

But if you play some rock, or heavy metal, or do some critical solo from top to bottom neck, with bone crushing power chords, and whack the tremolo like hell. I believe u need a 24 frets fingerboard with floating bridge doesnt matter it is floydrose underlicensed with lock nut. The pick up might have humbucker. this is my choice too. with humbucker-single-humbucher types of pickup..

The brand?

There are a lot of brand. I believe different brand has different characteristic with with different value. Also with the brand we know the average price.

But if, talking about cheap guitar with reasonable brand and quality. I suggest Ibanez. coz there are also made in CHina. The price is cheaper due to currency rate and also cheap labour cost, also due to less transportation charges etc etc. may be in malaysia we can go to Bentley for easy reference. Or CK Music for Craftman guitar. or BCRICH and Samick at DOREMI. or YAMAHA for YAMAHA guitar, they sells others though.

Sometimes any other brands also quite okay, depends on your preference, the name like Squire, Epihphone, SX, or whatever la... gives u a good choice.

Any other place? yes... I like to go for second hand guitar for some reason, I found some consider good second hand guitar at the place like Cashconverter and Buy,sell&trade. The reason is some times i can find a good guitar with a good sound that i can afford. but the problem is sometimes it has a little defect but still we can do some maintenance to make it better. The good thing is we can bargain, the more problem and defect with that second hand guitar the lower price we can get. If you are lucky u can find the brand like FENDER, Ibanez, GIbson, Kramer, Jackson, Hamer.... and more.

For example, this picture: is the guitar I bought second hand, but its consider antique. Ibanez Blazer series, Made in Japan in the year 1982 to 1984. Reasonable price and the sound is good.

So, make ur choice. Hope it helps.

In this post, I would like to show you some YT videos of home-made electric guitars.

Some people can make really nice instruments in their homes, garages, etc.

There are a lot of good parts on the market. You can buy a neck with your favourite shape. You can buy a body stylized on some well known guitar construction. You can also buy a lot of different types of hardware. There are tons of pickups to choose from.

All this things means, that building an awesome guitar in your home is possible. ...And it will be completely your own project!

Lets see some DIY guitar projects:
