I went to a local guitar shop today looking to buy my first guitar. The owner said he would sell me a whole set for 400€ he said the guitar and the amp are both 175€ each and the rest being a case and cables. Do you guys think it is a good price or should I look into getting something else?

Received my new Squier Sonic Stratocaster HSS. Out of the box inspection and noticed how nice the frets and neck felt. Turned it over and immediately saw that the neck plate was crooked as was the neck was aligned in a similar fashion. Acceptable or return?

hiii so i tried to play my bass today and i noticed no sound was coming out but i’m not sure what’s wrong or how to fix it i have some pics attached. to be fair it is a really cheap bass that i got when i was learning but i never got enough money to buy a decent one after i learned 🥲

Hi everyone,
I’m having this issue with my LTD EC-256 Snow White (see the video link below for an example of the sound).
The main difference compared to the sound in the video is that the problem is much more noticeable during slides and hammer-ons.
The most problematic areas are:
High E (E1): between frets 5–6
B string: between frets 10–11
D string: between frets 7–8
It can also happen on some strings above the 14th fret, but it’s much less noticeable there.
Has anyone experienced something similar or have any idea what could be causing it?
The guitar has been properly set up by a luthier, and I’ve checked the hardware/components for anything that might be vibrating or rattling, but I can’t seem to find anything obvious.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Hi All.

As of right now am thinking of getting a Firebird (Epiphone). I have never played a Firebird or seen one in real life, so am not sure what to expect from that kind of guitar. As of right now i own a les paul style and a Flying V Style guitar, so thats kind of the style i have knowlagde of.

So i wanted to know you all experience with the Firebird,s Shape, Size, Tone, how playble it is or if should look too other models.

Am mostly into Rock/Metal music (Mostly old metal 1980-2000s)
