the thing with the fender valve amp is the cleaner the sound the better the output... it'll be great on a distortion pedal as well.. coz hendrix broke a few valves on a fender to create his unique sounds.. cant u give it a try at a music store?... take ur guitar down and plug it in to gauge the sound... btw how much does it cost the fender i played was around 185 pounds (...approx 15000 INR) which is too expensive... why dont u check out Vox and Roland

Yeah, i'll be able to play in the store.

The guitar or amp?
The guitar is around €700 (49,638.47 INR) Probably get japanese Fender instead
The amp is €695 (49,275.45 INR)

The equivalent one would be but if you buy one for the same price, its better quality (so i've heard)
Basically they're as good as the Fender USA ones which cost well over a grand but they're half the price

[Viniero09]

apparently fender have one of their main assembly units in Chennai, India... what sucks about is that they do not directly retail their guitar in the country we have to import it... which mean duties and an inflated price.. also after hearing the instrumentals u posted i think u'd really like the fender amp and a strat to go along with it ... so i guess this means save up...

I frequently still do, they pass.
Generally happens when you hit a period of not learning anything new.
Had one recently, then i started learning "Going Home" by Mark Knopfler and it motivated me again

As i said, it'll pass and then you'll be back to normal

[dmknny]

its so hard lessons were good for a few weeks but now im not really learning anything new at all I feel like im teaching myself, any riff I Know is because of the internet apart from highway to hell,, I've been learning a solo for 2 weeks and I just cant get it, its so hard to hit one string on its own I end up hitting the one over it or under it no matter how much I practise... I Fell now like I should of tried left handed first, I am left handed but Ive done this and I play gold right handed and everything else left.... Dunno what to do tbh

I'm left handed too but it really doesn't matter too much which hand you are tbh.
I do everything left handed, including Golf. Guitar is the only thing i do right handed

It's just because your only starting. No one ever picked up a guitar for the first time and played fantastic. Everyone starts somewhere.

Patience is a virtue

I personally would never buy anything like that

Real guitars > Expensive toys

I guess most people would say that as a non player to me it's cool looking

[01srainey]

I think it's cool. but due to the price....I'd opt for a real one.

Here's my pedalboard



Not a lot of pedals(i used to have a huge board full of delays and stuff)but this covers pretty much everything i need.

The TIM and the Diamond are amazing,my two favorite pedals.

Not to play just to hang on my wall
