RIG TALK primer thread for TGP refugees

We all know the types......


Trader Joe/Whole Foods, PBS watching, NPR listening, Amazon Prime Shopping, well to do Tesla/BMW driving, Pink Pussy Hat Neil DeAss Tyson/Obama/Moses Lovers and Fancy Bagel Eaters *_*

Ahhhh, I recall briefly visiting a Trader Joes during the peak of the covid BS. There was a line 100 ft out the door and the door chick informed me there was a 45 minute wait to get inside for limited shopping. Those masked weenies were ENJOYING that like it was some kind of adventure where they get to exercise control over others and project their covid righteousness. I'm sure at least 2 were TGP mods and others were TGP serfs. đź’„đź’‹
 
Also, we roll a little differently over here. There can only be 1 be all/end all of amps and it ain't no fucking Two Rock.

Behold the king of tone:

This brings back memories and curiously makes my balls tingle
 
What about all you need is a fender Princeton Reverb? I read that what too much.
That's a classic line of TGP stupidity. One of the few gigs I've ever walked away from was during SXSW. The club failed to have the backline when I arrived. They had someone bringing it last minute and told me the amp was a princeton reverb. I told them "just don't worry about it" and they paid for my parking and I left. :LOL:
 
This thread is amazing! I can’t wait for the first douchey thread to be started by some cuck.

From the looks of these responses, the entertainment value will be massive.

I’d also like to stress that jazz is mostly scales and wrong notes

Not interesting ideas that only guys with a semester of music appreciation understand. Doesn’t matter how awkwardly you look at the stand up bass player when it’s “his turn”
 
All new comers should be forced to commit to memory the Hand Truck Oath;

This is my hand truck.

There are many like it, but this one is mine.

My hand truck is my best friend.

It is my life.

I must master it as I must master my life.

Without me, my hand truck is useless.

Without my hand truck, I am useless.

I must wheel my hand truck true.

I must wheel my hand truck straighter than my enemy, who is trying to out gig me.

I must out wheel him before he out wheels me.

Before god I swear this creed.

My hand truck and me are defenders of this gig.

We are the masters of our Monday night gig.

We are the saviors of the gigging world.

So be it... until there are no more gigs, just peace.

Amen.
 
Rhett is such a goober. Does he have good dynamic control in his playing? Yes. Does he have enough balls to say anything to a guy who walked up and grabbed his wife's ass right in front of him whilst making eye contact with him? No.

That's the magic trick he does with his editing; he's about as talented as every guitarist in every lower level touring band on earth.

He just knows Rick Beato, and is under the age of 58, so that's why we know him
 
I believe the TGP saying is "Baja tele and an AC15 should do ya" or something similar
I think I just don't like some who like to tell others what to use and can't understand or accept differing opinions. I want to see what works for others, but I also know that it may not work for me.

For example I built my friend's pedalboard for him and he uses a pedalboard switcher. It works great for him. To me it adds space, weight, and complexity. But this is real life so we can respect each other's opinion. On TGP I would be told I am wrong and need to get with the program. And my response would be I don't want to program the switcher, lol.

It's crazy because it's that way with a TON of internet guitar battles, but TGP feels like the worst because it's like a hive mind where everyone plays either worship music or is a high school jazz band teacher, and that's IT

Those are the two literal only types of guitarists apparently, and every rig and every piece of gear advice is based on that
