Any guitarists on EoFF?
What kinda gear you got? How do you set your pedals up? What's your playing style? Isn't Uematsu's stuff a bitch to play?
This is the general guitar discussion thread for EoFF.

Ooh I kinda missed this thread.
My main setup is a Gibson Les Paul studio with a Marshall jcm900 tube amp. Here's a photo;

The pedals are a vintage overdrive and a blues overdrive. They kinda do the same thing but the vintage overdrive isn't as reliable and doesn't go on/off sometimes. The old thing on the right is a phase shifter. Barely ever use it, but it's fun sometimes. Used to have a wah but it broke. Also have that old H&K amp and an Epiphone SG junior.
I'm away from home right now and I miss playing :cry:

Multi-effect boards (The Boss GT Series in particular) are way cool man, you might consider one. Once you get the hang of setting 'em up, they make everything a snap, and you don't have to spend all that time plugging stuff in all over the place.
I own a guitar
I don't play one
I'm trying to change that but I'm having trouble with even the most basic of chords. It seems I'm too stupid to hold down more than on string at the same time. My tiny tiny fingers are not helping.
:bounce:
Are you having any trouble pressing down on the strings? Your guitar's neck may be warped from being exposed to extreme temperatures...pretty common, in my experience. Take it to a guitar repairman and have him adjust the truss rod. Tell him you want low action, but you don't want any buzz on the strings. These fixes take all of two minutes if he knows what he's doing.Quote:

I'm really tempted to learn this fingerstyle arrangement, but there is no tablature provided so i would have to work it out by the video and ear. Which i'm not quite inspired enough to do at the moment lol. Just as well, sometime's learning a piece of music can take away some of the "magic" of a song, IMO.

Anybody else wanna share a song(s) their planning on learning?
Been trying to pin this monster down practically since the game came out.
I'm in a real similar boat to Jessweeee♪
I have a guitar. But I don't really know how to play it.
I practice the chords I do know a few times a week while watching tv. But I too have small hands which sometimes make some chords difficult.
I have been kinda sorta going to Justin Guitar to learn/relearn chords and such.

On the left is my 7 string Epiphone LP and the right is my PRS Custom 24. I also have an Ibanez AW acoustic that I don't really play much these days. I have a live set up that I also don't use often because I have a home studio which consists on my guitar into my Axe FX II which goes into my Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 sound card and finally into the computer. I monitor everything through 600ohm Beyerdynamic DT880's which I run through an Aune tube headphone amp, but I do need to get some studio monitors at some point.
Sounds like a p decent rig.
I've got a Line 6 500HDFX thingy, and I've got it programmed to mimic the daisy-chain of pedals I used to use.
Tuner, EQ, Gain 1 (+Drive, =Treble), Gain 2 (-Drive, +Treble), Phaser (+Rate, -Depth), and a Delay (305 ms, one repeat).
I don't recall the EQ settings I use, but those are always to taste, I suppose.
I have 4 switches on the thing: Clean, Loud Clean w/Delay, Crunch (Gain 1), and Double Crunch (Gain 1+2 and Delay).

I use a Line 6 pod pro rack multi-effect processor with a Line 6 fbv shortboard. I have some other miscellaneous pedals. And a crate gx-60c amp.
Here's another song that's high on my list to learn.

I play guitar. I need to record more stuff (I recently got all three of Daisuke Minamizawa's Final Fantasy Guitar Solo books, so I've been busy). Here's a couple of samples:

There's more Final Fantasy songs on my channel if anyone's interested.

Couldn't find a picture of my Takamine G Series electro-acoustic but here I am putting it to use!
Niiiiiice, that's the guitar I want to get, too! :D Nothing beats an SGQuote:

Interestingly the Telecaster has the wrong neckplate on it. It's got a Precision bass neckplate and was registered at the factory as a precision bass and not a Tele. Found that kind of humorous.
Sweet dude! Mexican Tele's are the bomb.Quote:

No, just the plate that covers the area where the neck bolts to the body. Still kind of funny though. It amuses me to know I have a rather unique tele in that regard. And for the price it was, I have to agree that Mexican Tele's are the bomb.
