Title: biggest misconceptions about guitar playing/pedal using/effects choosing?
Post by: charles_h on June 05, 2009, 04:49:37 PM
ano sa tingin niyo ang mga pinakamalaking misconceptions tungkol sa paggigitara? eto isa: nasa gitara ang abilidad. ibig sabihin kung panget gitara mo, halos wala ka nang pagasa. shempre naman sobrang mali un, ang talento nasa tao, hindi sa instrumento.
kayo ano ung mga naririnig niyo sa iba (rumors tungkol sa gitara, effects, etc) na mali naman para sa inyo?

a guitar has to be at least worth $5,000.00, made by a super exclusive luthier, made from the most exquisite woods and hand crafted and soldered using the most expensive electronic components..... and must have the swirling "hiyaw" you can hear in your head.

dito aminado ako hehe nung natutunan ko mag Philmusic ang dami kong natutunan, at nalaman kung ano ang mga mas "ideal" gawin :lol: may gear na ko bago pa mag Philmusic, at based yung mga gamit ko sa kung ano available sa mga stores dito s'tin (sana nga naaga aga para mas nakapag invest ng mas maganda) :lol:
kaya ngayon unti unti kong inaayos yung gear ko :lol:
consider it as a learning process, share ko lang baka may maka relate s'kin :lol:
na kapag kaya mo na ang intro nang sweet child of mine halimaw kana... crap.
hehe kung ngayon ganyan pa din conception, baliw na ata hehe joke... syempre pag nag uumpisa pa lang at natutunan yan, proud ka na sa sarili mo di ba hehe

Na mas maganda raw ang gitara pag branded at made in japan or states. Para sa akin kahit local brand ng gitara basta maganda yung tunog pag na plug directly sa amplifier. Eto pa pala. Na dapat bridge pickup lang lahat gamitin if metal tugtugan mo. :-)

eto isa pa: necessary daw and showmanship pag naggigitara, kasi kung nakatayo ka lang daw, hindi ka pa rin makikilala bilang magaling.
bakit ba, eh kung kelangan ko mag concentrate at hindi magtatalon-talon sa stage, ibig sabihin hindi nako magaling? (pero hindi naman nga talaga ako magaling haha :P)

Di naman sa kilangan mo tumalon, pero pag nakatayo ka sa isang sulok na parang gawa sa bato, at naka baba ulo mo't nakatingin sa gitara, magmumukha ka talagang di magaling.

misconception?!
Boring daw ang blues... Basta nagshshred at sweep picking sa gitara, magaling na... mapapasma ka daw pag nagbasa ka ng kamay mo taz katatapos mo lang magitara. cool daw pag ang ngipin ang ginagamit pang pick sa gitara... (sana maimagine nyo) di raw matuto ang mga newbie sa gitara, kasi ayaw daw sa kanila ng gitara. hehe... Basta METAL tugtugan mo mabangis at cool ka na. at marami pa....

Misconceptions:
1.) ang guitar pwede gawing bass 2.) mas mabilis = mas magaling 3.) mas maganda ang Set Neck compared sa bolt-on (stupid Gibson marketing) 4.) kung marunong ka mag gitara, maraming babae magkakagusto sayo *lol*
add:
-kailangan magsimula ka muna sa acoustic bago mag electric *lol*

acoustic guitar litmus crap. That an acoustic guitar can separate the good players from the bad ones, that if you play good in an electric guitar but dont sound that good when playing an acoustic then you're not good. this is silly because they are different beasts and both require different nuances, technique, style though they may have commonality on some aspects but not everything. its cool though to be competent on both.

Sabi nila when you listen to metal music you tend to do something bad. :-D
... matagal nang maraming sarado ang isip. Nung sinaunang panahon, sabi ng mga mongha, kapag tumugtog ka ng tritone o b5, diabolus en musica daw yon, o the devil's interval.
Nung panahon nina BB King, mga blues musician, maiimpyerno daw.
Sinabi na rin yan tungkol sa jazz. Devil's music daw.
People fear what they don't know.

pag gitarista ka ng pop/variety/showband, la kang kwenta...
Tama. Bata pa lang ako naririnig ko na sa mga pa-cool at mayayabang na gitarista yan. Ang di nila alam, sobrang galing ng isang gitarista na asa showband kasi kaya nilang tugtugin kahit ano tsaka sobrang inggit ako sa kanila because they earn from what they love most-- playing the guitar.
Ilan ba sa atin ang ganun? Kumikita sa isang bagay na sobrang mahal nila.

what some or most of the rock players are not aware of is that most of the variety/showband guitar players have rock roots. i've played for 9 years as a variety band but 6 years of rock prior to that. (mostly extreme/dream theater/vai/johnson stuff - not really what you'll call easy stuff...) i've met and talked to a lot of guitar players from other variety bands and most of us used to be - guess what --- shredders. we even jam sometimes (if the situation allows it) but it doesnt feel really 'uplifting' like it used to be when its we're still pure 'rockers/metalheads'. its like drinking your favorite alcoholic drink after abstaining for it for several years, and realized not only its not spectacular tasting but actually have an annoying after taste you prefer not to experience. it took me several years before i got rid of the 'heavy' sound evident in my playing style and convert it to something more appropriate for the multi-genre nature of the job. (having a shred guitar added to the difficulty)
you can also think of it this way, you (refering to pure rock guitar player) practice for several years trying to be good with the instrument and most probably with dreams of stardom. as the years pass and you're a bit older, wiser and drunk less often, the reality sinks in that stardom is not really a walk in the park to achieve. you also experience difficulties with your (maybe) long term bandmates since most of them starts to drift to other 'priorities' (i can name a few but i'll let you're imagination provide the gruesome details). you are then left with an arsenal of skill and knowledge about the guitar and music in general and you're not sure what to do with it.
there are several things that can happen from here on.
- you can go ahead with your studies (if you're not done yet) or get an office job/ pursue the career you've earned from school and play guitars (most of the time alone) in the bedroom during days off.
- you teach music (this can be good or bad but i'll let you decide on that - but it's definitely not my ride)
- you look for new bandmates and found out that most of the people you 'negotitiate' with has a very firm stand on a specific genre (or composition) ; you're choice of music is no longer 'cool' for the younger batch of musicians you're trying to recruit.
- you somehow watched a gig with a showband or two with a spectacular guitar player and realized you have a limited view about guitars/guitar-playing or you are somehow dragged into a pretty wild pop gig (probably because of a chick or two with a different idea of the word 'band' from you/ and realize that not only that the pop guys are musically/technically good, they're having fun , 'living the life' - (i'll let you interpret this one), also get handsomely paid - the level of the venue can be a deciding factor here. (after summoning the courage to speak with the roadie or with a band member and asking questions about the pay of course) - a far cry from the 'indie production' system you're familiar with or worse, battle of the bands that you may or may not win.
- someone from the studio you (or your band) frequently practice notice your skill as above average and/or you have a potential for a 'project' they're working on. you got invited to an audition and since you have nothing better to do or just plain curiosity, you showed up. you then meet the rest of the band and try to jam a few 'necessary' songs for the pop genre. most of it doesnt require your (insert high gain pedal here) to be turned on. the jam turned out to be a mess since you cant jive with the others. after several futile attemps to jam a complete pop song with you they've aked for a song/songs your familiar with and played it with you. they'll probably play 2 to 3 songs with you before calling it a day. from there someone in the business (for along time) explained how things worked (in a forced polite manner) from their point of view. since the first jam is a disaster (you dont know any of the songs being to obsessed with your personal genre) they give you a study cd or a list of songs to download and set another practice - the date far too close for the number of songs to study on the list. (probably 12 to 20 songs for 3 to 5 days) they also gave some tips on how to learn the songs efficiently in which you dont pay much attention. you then go home and tried learning the songs. (((TO BE CONTINUED)))

(((KARUGTONG)))
here comes the nice part. the list have several ballads in which all you can hear is the piano. (well virtually everything exept the guitar) your ears is so used to the heavy sounds (even the cleans in rock music got an attitude) that you cant actually hear the subtle playing in the ballad mix. after several hours of listening you finally hear it, most of the chords are easy to figure out, (until you encounter Better Days or something similar) but your hand seems to refuse moving away from the palm mute position. you also noticed that your rhythm playing is virtually non-existent. still you finished your 'sipra' and give yourself a pat in the back for finishing 20 songs. (this is before you noticed that you been playing for more than 6 hours) back to the studio a few days later, it came to you that you barely remember any of the songs you've just studied (exept the guitar solos) and made another mess of the session. the ones you actually remember, you cant play with conviction for several different reasons. - 1: you dont like the song, 2: you dont like the song, 3: same as 1 and 2, 4: your mechanics, mood, and groove are still oriented to much to your previous genre.
it may come to you that the pop guys are routinely studying that number of songs in the same timeframe and perform it live shortly after. from this point onward you'll probably either get challenged and try harder or retreat to your comfort zone, forget the whole thing and consider it a bad dream. but maybe, just maybe, you'll realize that theres whole different (musical or otherwise) world undiscoverd and waiting for you and you're not selling your soul or something to get there.

power chords are chords...hmmm more like double stops... you'll need at least a 3 note voicing for it to be a chord.... a minor 3rd for minors and a major 3rd for major... Traditionally, chords have been built by superimposing two or more thirds.
power chords (root 5th voicing) are to ambiguous you cant really tell what chord it is by itself... unless you pick it up from a progression

imo yung mababang gitara (mahabang strap) is for comfort. nag-iiba kasi ang center of gravity pag mababa ang gitara as compared sa mataas (almost chest-level) na nagiging mabigat sa left shoulder; for me it's done to compensate for the weight ng guitar, and i have been most comfortable with that way of slinging my LP. shempre, trade-off din: mahirap mag-reach minsan sa wound strings. weno, di naman ako shredder hehe.

true. i WAS in a band before and the "lead" guitarist plays only solos and lead lines. he had BAAAAAAAAADD rhythm - didnt even know much about chords much. his rhythm just suc.ked. tsk tsk, too bad because he had the better guitar back then and he was the nephew of the "band leader/manager" and they bought me - gasp! - an acoustic guitar because my role was to play rhythm ONLY and that the acoustic guitar is the only tool for the job.
got sick of that band. indianin ko nga isang gig nila ah, napilitang magchords si ga.go, ayun, sabi ng drummer nagkalat daw. pero when asked, mr. LG said it was a great gig. liar.
----------------------
dagdag natin:
if you play lead, dapat ikaw lang ang nakadistortion, si rhythm is light overdrive or clean lang.
ta.nga.
and ang bass "dapat" clean lang din, no effects whatsoever. i was like :roll: that was worth the biggest facepalm there exists. sigh.

(for guitar players and musicians in general...my favorite quote from the man...)
"what's good or bad doesn't matter to me; what does matter is feeling and not feeling. If only people would take more of a true view and think in terms of feelings. Your name doesn't mean a damn, it's your talents and feelings that matter. You've got to know much more than just the technicalities of notes; you've got to know what goes between the notes." - Jimi Hendrix

Share ko lang galing Guitar Player Magazine (Newbie Guitarist Misconceptions / Mistakes)
1. Thinking a year of lessons and $5,000 worth of gear makes you ready to play in a band.
2. Learning with eyes instead of ears
3. Obsessing about playing burning solos and not caring about rhytm guitar.
4. Realizing guitar is too difficult and taking up bass instead.
5. Spending more time on harmony central than actually practicing.
6. Investing in distortion boxes instead of a good amp.
7. Learning 100 intros and no songs.
8. Relying on picks.
9. Believing that opening for a national act means your on your way.
10. Forgetting that playing music is meant to be fun.
peace :-D

Pabilisan at paramihan ng nota ang music.
Notes/Scales are more important than rhythmic feel.
You have to know all the scales to play anything.
You can play anything and not listen.
Watch your hands all the time while playing.
Pagparang motor ang tunog, malupit kang gitarista.
Perfect playing immediately mean that you're a great musician.
Ego first before music.

Misconception about effects: Your pedals have to be chained with one another in one definite order only (Wah>Comp>Dirt>EQ>Mod>Delay>Rev).
ang alam ko walang hard and fast rules when chaining effects. parang recommendation lang yang setup na ganyan base sa flow ng signal. pero sabi nga, whatever floats our boat. kasi i sue phaser at the end of the chain :D after the delays.

Eto yung ilan sa mga misconceptions na sa tingin ko e useful mga tsong:
1. Kapag magaling kang gitarista, kahit sa anong instrument brand dapat makakatugtog ka nang maayos. (Parang sinabi mong dapat marunong kang magsalita ng lahat ng dialects sa Filipinas para matawag kang tunay na Filipino. XD)
2. Laging mas maganda ang analog effects sa digital when it comes to sound quality. (The most convincing room simulators and reverbs are usually digital, dahil mas accurate ang nuances nila kaysa spring based or plate reverb units.)
3. True bypass pedals are the best for tonal integrity. (Kapag mahahaba na yung signal chain, nagiging muddy na yung tunog ng gitara kung walang buffered pedals na "tutulak" sa signal along the cables.)
4. Mahirap i-tweak ang multifx para gumanda ang tunog. (Kailangan lang na alam mo kung anong klaseng tunog ang pwede mong makuha sa unit, at hindi yung hahanapin mo yung mga tunog na hindi kayang ibigay sa iyo ng multifx.)
Title: Re: biggest misconceptions about guitar playing/pedal using/effects choosing?
Post by: lolwat on September 10, 2010, 12:11:22 AM
5. Pag metal kailangang high gain lagi? (Kung gusto mo ng note definition at max crunch, di pwede sobrang dirt kasi magiging masyadong muddy at undefined yung signal mo.)
6. Nasa tagal ng paggigitara ang paggaling ng technique. (Kailangan systematic ang paag-aaral ng techniques para mas lalong maging technically proficient, at nasa puso at taste ang emotional playing.)
7. Pabilisan lang ng kamay ang shredding. (Nung nagsisimula pa lang ako sa shred, tinitigasan ko lang yung braso ko sa picking, tapos sinasabayan ko ng imprecise fretting, nairecord ko pa. Kada napapanuod ko natatawa na lang ako sa sarili ko, kasi basura talaga yung tunog, wala pa sa beat =)))
Title: Re: biggest misconceptions about guitar playing/pedal using/effects choosing?
Post by: lolwat on September 10, 2010, 12:22:01 AM
8. Mas makapal na cables, mas okay. (Totoo lang ito kung makapal yung cable DAHIL mas makapal yung copper conductors, at kung may shielding pa)
9. Gold-plated connector plugs are the best (Buti kung yung buong wire na dadaluyan ng signal, ginto din, eh hindi XD)
10. There is such a thing as "the absolute best" when it comes to equipment selection (i.e. the best amp, best guitar, best effects pedals, etc.).
Title: Re: biggest misconceptions about guitar playing/pedal using/effects choosing?
Post by: skrumian on September 10, 2010, 12:46:11 AM
biggest misconception: 1)the more gain to you have on your dirt, the better. 2) the more guitar technique you can do, the better.
the principle I live by now (or maybe as of now, hehe) 1) Clarity should not be sacrificed; the lesser the gain of the dirt, the better. 2) It is not on the technique or gears; it is what you create.
Title: Re: biggest misconceptions about guitar playing/pedal using/effects choosing?
Post by: burnsbhm on September 10, 2010, 01:04:07 PM
Gear: 1. The only guitar/bass that sounds are good are coming from independent builders that are priced $5,000.00up. 2. The only effects that sounds good are coming from independent builders that are true bypassed priced $400up. 3. The only amp that sounds good are coming from independent builders that are all tube with no transistor whatsoever in the innards and are priced $5,000.00up (only a DUMBLE is good enough!) 4. The only pickups that sound good are the ones you can never buy in a music store and can only be accessible via mail order either in the US or UK and are priced $600 a piece. 5. A person will only sound good if he religiously obeys 1-4. 6. A person with G.A.S. means he is a great guitar player. 7. There is a difference between a guitar for LEAD playing and for RHYTHM playing.
Playing skills 1. Who cares about chords! I am a hotshot badass shredder! 2. Why should I practice, I play for the song. 3. Being a shredder can get me to play in any band. 4. Speed matters, nothing else 5. Emotion matters, nothing else
Musicianship/musicality 1. The only good musicians are jazzers. 2. You are the most inferior musician if your roots are rock music. 3. Bands with original compositions are the best musicians in the world. 4. You suck if you are in a showband. 5. You kick ass if you only play one genre (R&B lang ako, alternative lang ako, etc...) 6. If you can play (put any genre you hate here), you suck automatically. 7. You are a disgrace to the musicians' world if you play Eddie Peregrina/Aegis alongside Dream Theater in a set. 8. You suck if you don't write original compositions ..... which leads to..... 9. You suck if you never had a major record deal
Attitude as a musician 1. Wag mong kunin yan sa banda mo, rocker e. Jazzer lang ang magaling. 2. Ayokong mag ensayo, sumipra. Gusto ko tugtog agad. 3. Ayokong magcommit sa banda, kung saan lang may biyahe dun ako. 4. Lagyan natin ALL THE TIME ang ka alternate natin sa puwesto. 5. All gigs are an opportunity to LAGAY (show off your stuff to fellow musicians) 6. Play only your repertoire. Nakakahiya pag tumugtog ka ng request na wala sa pondo. 7. Covers suck! That's sellout!

Yes. I agree.
When i was in High School, my friend's parents bought him a 400,000 peso guitar. ($1:27 Php) some kind of guitar that a famous guitarist once used. In fairness naman sa friend ko, magaling talaga siya, at 14, pati ear development niya is good. Tabs were hard to come by during that time. Our friends would often go to him to have the latest songs transcribed to the dot. noong grade 6 kami (1992), full array na siya ng boss pedals and an Am. Std Strat. (yes, we were kids)
We found out later that his dad din pala was a musician/guitar lover and pinag aral na pala siya ng guitar since early grade school.

here comes the nice part. the list have several ballads in which all you can hear is the piano. (well virtually everything exept the guitar) your ears is so used to the heavy sounds (even the cleans in rock music got an attitude) that you cant actually hear the subtle playing in the ballad mix. after several hours of listening you finally hear it, most of the chords are easy to figure out, (until you encounter Better Days or something similar) but your hand seems to refuse moving away from the palm mute position. you also noticed that your rhythm playing is virtually non-existent. still you finished your 'sipra' and give yourself a pat in the back for finishing 20 songs. (this is before you noticed that you been playing for more than 6 hours) back to the studio a few days later, it came to you that you barely remember any of the songs you've just studied (exept the guitar solos) and made another mess of the session. the ones you actually remember, you cant play with conviction for several different reasons. - 1: you dont like the song, 2: you dont like the song, 3: same as 1 and 2, 4: your mechanics, mood, and groove are still oriented to much to your previous genre.
it may come to you that the pop guys are routinely studying that number of songs in the same timeframe and perform it live shortly after. from this point onward you'll probably either get challenged and try harder or retreat to your comfort zone, forget the whole thing and consider it a bad dream. but maybe, just maybe, you'll realize that theres whole different (musical or otherwise) world undiscoverd and waiting for you and you're not selling your soul or something to get there.

based on experience, when i'm auditioning for a school band, one participant offered me a stick of cigarette, which i normally declined (coz i'm not a smoker), then w/ a big question in his face he asked "rocker ka pero di ka nagyoyosi?!".
based on public/audiences: if youre a fast shredder it means your a good guitar player, but when it comes to playing in live/gigs, it seemed that few/nobody in the audience give much importance to your guitar solos. kinda ironic.
the heirarchy of pedals are as follows: 1. bowtik! 2. generic brande (boss, line 6) 3. zoom pedals
OT: all answers or queries in Philmusic can be found in google/wiki. google first before you ask. (wiki's are not ALL the time accurate.) and yeah sumtimes senior members and up kinda act like a real "A _ _ H _ _ _".

OT: For 10k right na gitara + amp? ipaset-up mo nalang sa sales person pag bibilhin mo na.. kahit umabot ka sa 20k range na gitara, meron ka parin masusubukan na hindi maayos ang setup.. best way to deal with that talaga is to have the salesperson set it up sa store pagkabili mo.. most of them are knowledgeable naman pagdating sa mga simpleng setup na ganyan eh (action, intonation, etc.).

Misconceptions about...
...guitar playing: Ang lead guitarist mas magaling kesa sa rhythm guitarist at ang bassist ay nagbe-bass kasi di sya marunong mag-gitara.
...pedal using: Lahat ng knobs dapat naka-max lalo na kung fuzz ang pedal mo.
...effects choosing: Pag nasa pedalboard ni *insert famous guitarist here* ang isang pedal, ibig sabihin maganda tunog nun (and vice-versa).
Additional: 'Yung SIGNATURE MODEL ni *insert famous guitarist here* na guitar / amp / pedal / pick, 'yun din mismo ang ginagamit n'ya pag nagpe-perform.

+1
stereotype sa pananamit ng iba't ibang genre such as:
1. pag metal or rocker ka dapat itim damit. 2. pag reggae dapat nakarasta bonnet or any red/yellow/green na suot 3. pag grunge torn jeans 4. mas rocker pag mas mahaba buhok
mas mabigat ang tugtugan mas astig or magaling (plus points pag shredder).
pag metal genre is superior than other genre (jazz, pop, alt etc.) (mga tropa ko ganito ang pananaw)

pag di marunong gawin nalang bassist
pag di marunong mag strum di na matututo mag gitara ( nung nag start palang ako mag gitara ang lakas ko kumaskas nahihirapan ako mag strumming nun sabi sakin nung tropa ko na marunong mag gitara pre hindi ka matututo mag gitara hindi ka marunong mag strum eh :cry: )
pag nag jam kayo ng mga kapitbahay at di mo alam tugtugin yung mga sikat na song, love song eh it means na wala kang kwentang gitarista or di ka marunong mag gitara ( iba lang talaga yung trip kong tugtugin before at di ko lang alam tugtugin pero kaya ko yun tugtugin hindi ko lang sinisipra dahil di ko trip dati :cry: )

gilty din ako jan! first 5 years of playing guitar akala ko dapat waang mids.. iba paala ung naririnig ng audience, parang bubuyog kalang na ngo ngo. haha
now i add more mids, less treb and bass tapos gain is at 12'oclock lang ang max.

actually ako mas comportable ako sa mababa na strap, pero pag complikado ang riff, kailangan taasan, di ko kaya mga komplikado na riff pag masyado mababa. per kung yung tugtugan eh mejo easy easy lang ang pag strum, ayus lang pero pag heavy / speed guitar riffing na ang usapan, kailangan erpat-rock muna ang stance. haha

1. All good sounding pedals are true bypassed 2. There is no good sounding solid state amps 3. Vintage is better 4. Rock guitar is for beginners ONLY 5. If you have a guitar with humbuckers and locking tremolo - you are a metalhead 6. If you have a strat with the tremolo bar removed, you are a showband player 7. Only (insert your favorite genre here) is good music 8. Investing too much on pedals when they should have invested in a good amp 9. If you cannot copy a guitar solo note for note to the last 64th note in the perfect beat of a measure, you suck 10. Showband musicians are inferior compared to ones who only plays originals 11. A clone of a popular pedal will not sound good as the original 12. The best guitar pedals were made in the 60s - 80s. 13. JRC 4558 chip was discontinued in the 90s

I started playing some fingerpicking pieces on my acoustic guitar and he looked unimpressed. he then asked me:
friend: can't you shred? me: nope. my style is more on acoustic fingerpicking. friend: A REAL GUITARIST CAN SHRED! me: .............. :eek:
only a handful of people can appreciate my style of playing. just because I can't shred, doesn't mean I'm not a REAL guitarist. <_<

may kilala ako dati na magaling maggitara pero walang sariling gear. no guitars, no amps, no pedals, wala lahat. kung may gig, he will just borrow from someone. ewan ko lang ngayon kung may guitar na siya.

in my own opinion, I don't believe in that saying "you're not a real guitarist if you don't have your own guitar". depende kasi yan sa situation eh. what if he/she doesn't have a guitar because they can't afford to buy one? not all of us can afford buying guitars. ako nga I can barely afford one eh. :oops:

IMO, you don't need a band to be called a guitarist. knowing how to play the guitar is enough to be called a guitarist or a musician.

Yes, you could call him a firefighter especially if he trained how to fight fire. Also in the case of being a guitarist. You trained/practiced on how to play the guitar. If being a guitarist only means that you're in a band, what would you call those "bedroom musicians" who doesn't have a band and yet still train/practice the guitar or any other instrument?

wiki fingers!! :-D
A guitarist (or a guitar player) is one who plays the guitar or some similar stringed instrument. The guitarist, in some cases, can also be a musician. Guitarists may play a variety of instruments such as classical guitars, acoustic guitars, electric guitars, and bass guitars. Some guitarists accompany themselves on the guitar by singing.
The guitarist has several ways of playing the guitar depending on the type of strings (see Nylon-string guitar or Steel-string acoustic guitar) and including the guitar pick, fingernail, and/or fingertip (see fingerstyle guitar).[2] It involves techniques derived from other stringed instruments such as 'legato playing' and various harmonics.
While music is generally regarded as a form of art in itself, playing an instrument such as the guitar seems to be an artistic gesture more appealing to the visual sense. The guitarist has long been a popular subject for artists. One of the more famous examples is the painting Degas's Father Listening to Lorenzo Pagans Playing the Guitar by Edgar Degas, which was painted sometime between 1869–72 and is currently owned by the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.[3]

BTW, i googled the definition of the word guitarist and even opened the pages of our thick dusty old WEBSTER dictionary,,, pero mukhang di ganyan ang pagkakaintindi nila sa nasabing salita, at ang alam ko kasi ang gusto lang nila hendrix nun maging ni E. Buendia ay maparinig ang nasa puso nila through music, tayo na lang ang nagbigay ng titulo sa kanila eh... mas maganda siguro kung lalaliman pa natin ang pangunawa sa mga salitang nabanggit, sayang naman ang nuerons, 8-)

My comment seems to have enraged a few of you, nevertheless a nice discussion. To clear things up I think solo artists are guitarists too. Don't you think you have to possess a certain level of proficiency to be called a guitarist? A level where you "can" be included in a band. may pinagkaiba pa ba sa inyo ang "marunong mag gitara" tsaka "gitarista"?

OT:
Agree with this. :-D
Guitarists can be technically, musically and artistically able or proficient with the art and craft of guitar playing.
Again, able or proficient...
Technical - they can ouido, copy and perform other musician's music in any styles but doesn't know most of the terminologies of what they are doing and cannot improvise riffs and solos of their own, read music and compose songs fairly or well.
Musical - has proficient knowledge about music theory, structures and all it's forms like chords, scales, modes, chord progressions, styles and genres, can sight-read but is not technically proficient and is not good or has no taste in song-writing (making melody with the right lyrics or vice-versa).
Artistic - can compose and write lyrics and songs and put melody into it in a very tasteful and sensible way with decent but not proficient technical skills, can only compose well on a certain musical genre of their preference (for most artists) and has average knowledge of musical theory (Does not sight-read and can only read chords or tablatures).
Guitarists can have 1, a combination of 2 of them or all of the characteristics mentioned above. Either being fairly able or very proficient in them. :razz:

If you are to store your guitar in a long time, that's the only time you need to loosen the strings to avoid neck bow. Pero kung halos araw-araw mo naman ginagamit guitar mo, you don't need to do so.

Nakaiinis nga eh. Country kasi ang genre ko. Tuwing may performance yung school band namin madalas akong pinagsosolo ni sir. Ito mga misconceptions sa akin:
1. Lahat ng makakita sa aking may dalang electric guitar, lagi na lang sinasabing rakista ako. 2. Tuwing tumutugtog ako, may pinopormahang babae agad. 3. Pangit din daw yung set-up ng multi effects ko kasi raw 3 lang patches ko (phaser + reverb, distortion + delay, and clean).
Ito naman ang mga napapansin ko: 1. Kapag may distortion na, magaling na raw. 2. Kapag bago ang tinutugtog, magaling raw. 3. Kapag natugtog mo na ang gustong ipatugtog ng kung sino mang nagrequest, magaling ka na. 4. Hindi raw magaling ang mga gumagamit ng acoustic guitar.
Napansin ko lang yan base sa mga experiences ko sa high school band namin kaya minsan nawawalan na ko ng ganang tumugtog sa school.

ganun pala sir. natakot kasi ako noon na baka may mangyari sa guitar ko kaya lagi ko nilu-loosen yung strings after use. ngayon alam ko na po, panatag na ang loob. :) thanks sa tip sir.

Siguro. Sa opinyon ko, mas nagustuhan ko ang acoustic guitar nang magkaroon na ako ng electric guitar. Bukod sa magaan, tingin ko mas pogi ang may hawak ng acoustic guitar habang kumakanta kasi parang DOWN TO EARTH style kung baga.

Sabi ng music teacher ko mag-umpisa muna sa guitar without any effects kasi ang mga nag-aaral ng lead sa DISTORTION agad eh bingi at hindi makatutugtog ng wala nito.
actually I think that the biggest misconception of all is that a beginner should start on an acoustic guitar. It's harder to play on an acoustic. higher action, thicker string gauges therefore harder to string bend and more painful in the fingers (especially for a beginner with no callouses on the fingertips) . If the loud noise and distortion is the issue, get an electric guitar play it clean (without any distortion) and turn down the volume of the amp or better yet, wear ear protection (which I think is always a must). Another thing is that because of the electric guitar is easier on the hands of the player, it may actually encourage a begginer to learn the guitar more. Just my 2 cents..Peace.. :-D

preference lang yan, wala naman global rule na kailangan acoustic muna, pero usually sa acoustic ka nga una matututo kasi un ang karaniwang available, pero that doesnt mean na "kailangan" na sa acoustic ka una matuto.

kasi nga country player ka sabi mo, preference lang talaga. :)

big misconception: you can only own hi-end guitars if you are very rich.
fact: you can own hi-end guitars if you dont buy a car, or do something stupid like get married early. oh, it is of course assuming you are working a decent job.

Big misconception = marunong ka na sa pag naka power chords ka.
This is where I think you missed the music teacher's idea when he said to start out on acoustic guitars. although meron iba na kahit acoustic na nga ang gamit , naka-power chords pa din. And if you were starting out on learning the guitar why would you need to bend the strings? CHORDS, CHORDS, CHORDS!!!!
-- acoustic guitars have higher action -- kung di mo ipapa-adjust sa luthier.
eto pa isang misconception -- pag marunong ka mag "Lead" magaling ka.
try mo pumoste ng rhythm na masarap at pilit mong pupunuan yung kulang sa kanta para walang butas ang tunog niyo. Admittedly I am bad at this. and it's just recently that I found out how important rhythm playing is. kaya CHORDS, CHORDS, CHORDS!

so ibig mo bang sabihin e pang chords lang ang acoustic? di ba pwedeng magchords sa electric? :-\ what you can learn on an acoustic, you can also learn on an electric and vice versa (except extreme techniques like divebombing etc..), only its easier on the electric guitar. Why? because the electric guitar was designed to have easy playability, most have thinner body, lower action and lower string tension. So if you're a begginer (no callous on fingertips) where would you benefit more? It's a fact (at least for me) that you can practice longer on an electric compared to an acoustic before your fingertips hurt. again, just my 2 cents.. :-\

There's a misconception that to be a good guitarist, you need to learn how to play awesome licks and riffs. This is a misconception. To be a good guitarist, one has to be a good listener first. Continuous guitar practice should always go at par with good ear training.
