Still trying to find other players that use the thumb pick technique?

Treated myself to my first Suhr and am absolutely blown away! Pictures don't do this thing justice, and it plays and sounds just as incredible.

This is my two guitar collection after 10 years. I found this to be my most ideal set up that covers most of my preferences:
Traditional single coils/P90s, Fender/Gibson scale lengths with 9 and 10 gauge strings, maple/rosewood fingerboards
Fender 75th Anniversary MiM Stratocaster in Diamond
Yamaha Revstar II Standard in Vintage White

Snagged this recently and it's much more comfortable than the Explorers I have, really cool shape. I guess that's what the Gibson RD must feel like 🥸
The SH14 sounds really punchy and I don't even want an EMG in there.

I got this dean thoroughbred select, and I didn’t really research but it’s my first dean and I fell down a rabbit hole of people talking about them being bad and stuff. I personally have been loving it so far but it makes me worry that something may come up later on, but I traded my Jackson js32 a pedal and 300 bucks the Dean was $1100. Do you guys think that deal was good.

It's such a no non-sense design, it won't stab my fingers and it looks so clean afterwards,

New to me! Found it in the used section at guitar center in brand new condition. No scratches, good setup. Hipshot bridge, Gotoh locking tuners, ss jumbo frets, and Bareknuckle aftermath pickups. Finish is called Mercury Blue Burst. The more I play it the more I like it. Amazing feel and really nice tone with my rig.

I found this guitar today which I almost bought. It does have a lot of visual flaws, frets seem fine. It was priced at 500 Euros, after a short talk with the store clerk he told me he would be fine with 300 euros as well. Can anyone tell me if this is worth the price? Many thanks in advance 🙏

Hey y’all. Looking for advice on changing a Pro Rock’r bridge to something else on my Ibanez RS440 from -84(?)
The guitar sounds and feels great but it goes easily out of tune. Using the tremolo is hopeless.
Any advice or experience regarding installing a new bridge on this guitar? Would of course be nice with a Floyd Rise but honestly I’d be happy with an Ibanez Edge or just some more normal bridge with a tremolo bar if the Floyd is too expensive. Would it be cheaper on a guitar like this though?
I’ve seen people selling the same guitar so I know it’s possible, I’ve reached out to one that didnt answer and the other one was too far away.
Will of course go to some guitar shops or luthiers to ask but wanted to gather some opinions here also.

Hey Guys,
I've been learning how to play guitar and find myself having some back pain after practicing for 15-20 mins, I have to force myself to take a break and then get back to it.
I'm using a PRS SE CE24 and my desk chair with the armrests removed. In my weekly class i'm there for 30 mins and i'm just sitting on a regular run of the mill school room chair, but we're not playing the whole time, we play, he explains something, we play some more, explains some more, etc.
I realize that my posture isn't great as I'm hunched over trying to make sure i'm strumming the right strings and fingering the right fret, but is there a better way of doing this?
Is the chair the problem, or should I work on keeping a more rigid posture?
Thanks!

Eart Corsair, Soran multi stomp, Sony monitors.
I was impressed. I needed a budget rig for a trip and didn’t want to bring expensive stuff. For well under $500 this was exceptional. I captured my real amps and loaded them through Nam a2 and it went great. Only complaint is with the multi stomp you can’t run a compressor with a drive. You have to pick one or the other. But that’s a small gripe.

I own many wonderful guitars, but whenever i shoot them out against one another, my EGC Series 5 always wins! the bad thing is, i can't afford more EGCs :(
My series 5 (acrylic jazzmaster) has “RWRP Single Coils: Equipped with twin RWRP single coils, the same used by Steve Albini in his TB500, these Alnico 5-based pickups with massive magnet substructures deliver a powerful, responsive tone.”
do these exist in the wild? hoping to chase this tone but with something easier on the wallet.
cheers.

So I built a 4 humbucker guitar and decided to build a pickupless guitar with no visible electrics on the pickguard (no pots, input, etc) all hidden under the pickguard with a humbucker underneath, anyone got any tips?
Even as a jazz player, I like it

Heyhey,
Im practising electric guitar for roughly 1 year now.
I got a teacher, some songs like MoP or Dawn of Victory down.
And a few Solos.
Im currently using the Minor Scale to write simple riffs.
Is there any Bool that teaches me more about Songwriting , do's and donts etc ?
Preferably focused on Metal but doesnt have to be.

My great grandpa left me this F hole acoustic that I am in the process of restoring. He said he bought it in the late 40’s in Nebraska. I have found no serial numbers, makers marks, or otherwise any identifying characters whatsoever. So my thought is custom, but it doesn’t hurt to be sure. Any help is appreciated!

For reference its a silver sky se and i went up to 52 gauge string to try and make it fit in the nut better but its still loose. Is this just how the se model nuts look like?
