I think the whole “different guitars for different genres” thing was a lot more important back in the early days of electric guitar when the tone was basically dependent on the guitar and maybe an adjustment or two on the amp. Now with all these crazy pedals and midi inputs and computers, it’s way easier to get any sound you want out of any guitar you have.

Expect metal music still is dependent on the tone of the guitar. It's why the majority of guitar players use ESP, Ibanez, Dean or some lesser know guitars. Do you have any idea how many thing are confused with being metal just because the guitar sounds heavy but they lack the tone? Sure hardcore music is heavy does not make it metal. Sure you can make a country song sound heavy does not make it metal. There really is a tone in metal music set by the guitar.

Adrian Smith played a Charvel and they always used hot pickups, Malmsteen swapped to DiMarzio pickups because they picked up less string twang - same with JP and honestly with EVH the only thing about it being a strat was the shape. EVH used different tone woods, pickups, neck radii, all kinds of shit. You can play metal on a strat. Just it's not as common as a lot of these guys now with these ESP/Jackson/Ibanez guitars with dual humbuckers.

The Strat is the Swiss army knife of electric guitars, and I say that as a Les Paul player. The reason I still play Les Paul knowing that is because I still think each guitar brings something unique out of the player playing it. With Strats they bring out the soul. With a Les Paul it brings out the attitude. Since most of my music is rock/punk, I want that Les Paul attitude, but if you're playing blues or country or jazz, you might opt for that Stratocaster soul, since those styles of music are more aligned with "soulful" guitar playing.

Humbuckers are great for metal because you’re cranking that gain so high, the less pickup hum/buzz you have, the cleaner the sound and it becomes easier to mix from a producers perspective. You can always add raspiness in production. It’s near impossible to remove it. But everyone does things differently and that’s the best thing about music.
@josephfrost555552 жыл бұрын

What's the difference between humbuckers and single coils for metal
@dunxy2 жыл бұрын
@@spiky724 Pretty much what the OP said. Single coils are generally lower output and have hum, humbuckers (its in the name) are hum canceling so when you crank the gain they do not have the hum that one gets with single coils. You can get active single coils and other variants that eliminate or reduce the hum, ive tried a few myself and they seem to do nothing well, id rather have a noisy traditional single coil or just play with humbuckers. If you're just mucking around at home and not recording or gigging its not a major thing, i play metal all the time on my Tele that does have very noisy pickups, but it doesn't bother me and nobody else is there to get bothered so yeah... If you only want to play stuff overdriven and distorted humbuckers are probably the best choice, i love my clean stuff just as much as distortion and that's why i mostly use single coils, also i find i play better on the guitar i play the most as i imagine my muscle memory is dialed to it, switching scales and fret counts can complicate things for less experienced players, which i consider myself as even though ive been playing of and on for a very long time.

Active pickups are often good for metal. And pickups with ceramic magnets are too. And the level of output from a pickup can indicate what type of music they’re best for. But the pickups contribute to the sound just as much as the guitar itself. So when it comes to getting the type of music you want, it’s usually better to find the right type of pickups for that type of music sound. And the magnets in the pickups are part of what controls what type of music sounds come from them also.

2 things I have on this take is 1. As much as I absolutely hate using the term, so many guitars are sound platforms to where if you use the right effects and dial in your amp right you can get away with any style. 2. People get lost in genres instead of making things their own. I actually like playing different styles in a different context because there are aspects about both that I love that can be paired together tastefully.

Hell, both my hollow-body Gretsch and my solid-body Gretsch can clean house on any six-string metal songs. I haven't drop-tuned them, though, so I'm not sure how well they'll do with those. Oddly enough, the FilterTron pickups are damn good at metal. They cut through the mix quite well.

Really? The guitar only brings so much tone to the overall sound. The amp/sound/EQ setup makes a big impact on your end result. When I first started, I thought I wanted the "most metal" sound I could screech out of my amps. I thought I wanted an Ibanez Iceman, or something similar. Now I play between a Strat and an RG series Ibanez. I can get a nice twangy funk sound out of my Ibanez run through a Katana, and counter, I can get a nice metal tone via my Strat. Just have to set it up for those sounds.

Different fretboard radius help assist in different playing styles - more rounded, like a 7.25” can assist in open chording, while flatter radius like 16” can assist in fast arpeggio sweeps. But these things helping are not required, and if someone learns sweep arpeggios on a 7.25” Tele fretboard, then an Ibanez Wizard neck might not be better or even very comfortable for that player. So it all depends. Certain guitars make certain playing styles and sounds easier to achieve, but there is no one recipe that everyone is required to follow.

Your demonstration of singlecoils for metal was nice (I think that the guitarist of Raven did play a singlecoil Tele in the early 80's too) but you missed one important point: a setup that suits home or studio recording might not suit live performances and that is why humbuckers became the choice of metal players: the stage environment has much more electric noise (from lights and other equipment) than a studio and if you pair it with high-gain amps then single coils can become just too noisy.

My strat is a HSS, with the right amp you can get a heavy, thrashy sound out of the single coils then switch to the humbucker to really cut through the mix with the solos

The answer is: any guitar works for any tone... if you're willing to spend another $500 on pedals and amps
@johncrafton83193 жыл бұрын
Nah. A single guitar, a simple amp, and a small selection of those $50 pedals or a DI with some decent amp/pedal sims. My first professional guitar tutor showed me he could play (and sound like) the guitar on pretty much any popular song with just a "fat Strat" and a cheap amp.

only the Boss Harmonizer costs $200, a good pedalboard with 6 pedals, easily goes around $800 and don't forget the amp!

@@danielsanguino7856 Baloney. Good pedals can go for $40-$60 each (and you only need a couple), and a pedal-board can be literally hand-built with a few small pieces of scrap wood and some screws, plus a $50 power brick. The amp doesn't have to cost much at all. A used Peavey Bandit 112 is about $150.. You can easily set up a really good gigging rig for $300 in amps and pedals.

Yes a different guitar can sound differently for other genres but I think it’s all about how the player uses the tones of the guitar and what style they use to bring out the tone more

I played in highschool Jazz band with a BC Warlock and a Line6 Floor Pod Plus. It didn't look the part but damn it sounded good and creamy. All those wrong notes.👌 Also, Keith Urban uses a Les Paul for a lot of his stuff. Albert King used a Flying V for his blues although that's a bit closer to status quo.
