Guitar and Bass Discussion - Sperg about players that inspire you, gear, share your experiences, etc.

My mate just finished my first pedal board.

He buys his shit in bulk, it took up a whole roll of TPU filament. Roughly $13.
It's a shame we don't have commercial rights for it. I'd go 3D printing sperg and be knocking these out every few days to sell online with Jewish levels of markup.

Any KF guitar frens who are autistically into 3D printing am happy to the share the file.

You could bend sheet metal and powder coat it for like 2 or 3 dollars instead. Until 3d printing gets to be actually 3d printing and not 2.5d or whatever you want to call printing a uniform layer moving up and doing it again. It'll be worthless except for making small cheap junk.

Sorry did your plastic crap snap and break already? You just created the worst usage case for the material and function you could find, whether you realize it or not. Just putting your weight on it real good is going to snap the bar or end pieces in less than a few months.

No you're just a retarded fuckwit with the username of a nigger. For starters, you don't put all your "weight on it real good" on pedals/pedalboards. It's not a foot stool you midget cunt.

Hard shore TPU is strong enough to make a UFC themed balldo that could handle your overweight gunt crushing it into Jon Jones.

A lot of it depends on the type of filament and fill %. I've held pieces that were as big as a table leg that I couldn't snap in half.

Usually the strength of the material isn't the problem it's delamination of layers, which you can't fix because they still only print on planar layers. Until slicers get advanced enough to do actual 3d printing more exotic materials are only stop gaps. High infill in basic geometric shapes means you should probably just use a cnc router to cut it out of flat stock.

I'm more interested in where he's getting sheet metal for $3.

I think I've seen you post in the MMA thread, I'm sure you're aware anyone with a username "bonesjones" or iteration of talks like a fag and their shits all retarded. Likely an autistic kid who got into MMA because of a drug cheating nigger and are usually dumb fuck contrarian trolls. For $3 you're gonna get a piece shit of low gauge mild steel big enough for a fucking coaster and not even enough left over for a can of spray paint let alone powder coating.

You think you are gonna go down the hardware store with $3 and knock something up like this with some sheet metal and pop rivets like Hank making a giant Alamo can? That's asinine.

Actually it's in 95A petg at 50% fill, I thought he said he'd use a roll of hard shore orange tpu which 90A is still around twice stronger than plumbing fittings/conduit and would've been fine. I've got a 3D printed petg stand for the first gen nvidia shield, there's no way even with the gap in the middle (less than an inch) for where the shield wedges into I could snap that, if I threw it at the wall it'd embed itself in the drywall before shattering or breaking. Unless I change effects like I'm kerb stomping trans people of colour doing a stage production of American History X the musical, or Null falls on it, it won't break, *if* they do happen to break my fren said he'd reprint the slats at a higher fill. They'll be be fine for modular boards I can velcro together and toss in a gear bag for a rehearsal room or gig but they are mostly for my bougie pedals for studio use. I'm gonna tune to 432hz in case my sick riffs and licks causes it to de-laminate.

Only on Kiwi Farms would people get assblasted about how long $13 worth of plastic is going to last.

If it does break, he's out 13 whole dollars and can come up with a different idea. This is not a problem worth fretting (ha, cause it's the guitar and bass thread!) over.

Excellent pun bud.
I know it was just so dumb I had to treat it with the utter scorn and contempt it deserved.

My other idea was to use like a big wooden serving board/platter with adjustable furniture legs recessed into a nut the back and a rubber floor strip for the front edge. I wanted something modular and portable that'd fit in a sportsbag/backpack.

It and the other 1 or 2 I may need cost me nothing, my fren has the filament and paid for the stl file before I had a chance to. I owe him a kebab and a few beers.

Next project is a 3D printed modular guitar in carbon petg.


I need a jackson/charvel neck with the reverse headstock and sharkfin inlays.

My first ever gig is coming up this week. I know first gigs are like first sex, not always stellar, but God I'm looking forward to it so much bros. Been dreaming of this moment for over a decade. I hope we get to bring the house down :)

Just remember... a silent audience is okay... as long as they're not moving towards you... :)

We're a three piece playing 70s inspired rock. The venue is a cozy basement club, we're expecting maybe 100 people to turn up.

Awesome, I do hope the drummer turns up!

I mostly listen to 70's rock/blues aka Rory Gallagher and stuff like The Hellacopters. Tend to play more 60's psych surfy twang.

Decent pay for the gig?

Hey that is pretty adjacent to my own taste. I always tend to take things in a more bluesy direction while my bandmates are more into psych. There are no clashes though, the result is pretty neat I think.

It's one of those schemes where you pay for the club and hope to sell enough tickets to cover it. I think we're easily in the clear though, the costs aren't exorbitant. Anything that's left over I think we'll be happy to have the headlining band take the bigger cut of, we just want to have some fun and get our name out there.

Hey even if you don't recoup your costs, I can't imagine it'd be much more than hiring a fancy rehearsal/recording room for 6-8 hours. The experience will be invaluable, networking with other muso's etc, stage time and presence, sounds like a cool little venue.

The main stuff I'm working on atm kinda combines all my influence 60's psych like Phil Upchurch, Joe Pass, some Bossa Nova/Northern Soul then to the bluesy rock like Rory, Nicke/Rob and ig a lot of those retro hipster Cali surf/psych rock bands with some pretty heavy shimmer reverb/echo. Very escapist/disassociative, some shoegaze kind of vibes too.

It's either a bluesy/jazz riff with psych lead or kind of indie psych rock with some blues jazz in the lead. Just doing an EP/Album for YT/Soundcloud, really want an accomplished drummer with a latin background and maybe do some gigs and the recordings. I hate programming drums and SD3 samples just never seem to fit right.

Yeah exactly, from what I understand this business model is almost universally prevalent among smaller venues in our city but the costs seem very reasonable. I've heard a lot of people complaining about it being unfair because to cover the costs alone they'd need basically a full house, that's not the case here thankfully.

That sounds really interesting, I can kinda imagine what it might sound like but don't think I've actually heard anything like that before. If you're willing to send me a link in DMs I'd love to have a listen.
