    modes are confusing me

    so lets just say im playing in the key of C. I want to solo overthis but i dont want the major scale because it is boring and i dont want minor or major pentatonic because they are to bluesy. so i decide on Dorian so i can get that cool jazz/blue santana-y tone. to make it sound right and to...

    my guitar tone. LISTEN and tell me what you think!

    the recording quality (to me, and im not super experienced) didn't sound godawful...but when your playing between chords mute it out or something.clean it up. But then again as other people have said if thats the tone your going for than hey, as long as your happy.

    2 For 1

    you forgot the gain control knobs.....my first time through i had to spend more on buying a gain control console than my preamp was. And then i found behringer. Can you beleive that they can combine knobs, inputs, phantom power and the amazing "ultra pro" sound all for around 100 bucks.

    amplification

    Soldano's sound pretty amazing but if your on a little smaller budet im in a band with a sound like i dunno a mixture between alice in chains and smashing pumpkins and the guitarist sound is amazing...he uses a gibson standard double cut through a JCM2000 and it is really powerful.

    Scale to use in hard and alt rock soloing

    i am good at soloing in minor pentatonic and i am a good blues soloist. THis is funy to do but the music i write is alt rock influenced by bands like radiohead, Bush, smashing pumpkins. When i solo over the rhythm i write it just sounds laughable because it is so bluesy. What are some good...

    Double and Triple stop question

    OKAY...so the diagram of the minor 3rd dbl stop with its root in the B string is one finger on the B string and one finger on the Estring a whole step back.
