Pick vs Fingers again - Yeah, we’re doing it. 🤝🥊

What’s your default attack? Pick or Fingers.

Why it matters: your “default” shapes your tone, timing, and even your phrasing habits.

Team Pick or Team Fingers? Tell the community why, and what style made you choose it.

Mini-Challenge: Set a slow BPM and test both approaches.

🔊 Bold Claim: Speaker choice matters more than the amp itself

True - the speaker shapes the final voice more than anything upstream.
Amp matters more - that’s where the tone is born.

Why it matters: if you’re chasing tone, are you upgrading the right thing?

Team Speaker or Team Amp matters more? Defend it - what changed your sound the most?

At my age the quality of sound is more or less controlled by the quality om my hearing aids. If I had to vote one or the other, I'm going with the amplifier. but... one will not work without the other, both are important..

Guitarists… Let’s start a small war🔥

Tube amps always sound better than solid-state or digital.” Myth… or Always true?

Why It Matters: Tone isn’t religion, it’s touch, dynamics, and how your rig responds to your hands.

Team Myth or Team Always True? What are you actually hearing/feeling?

Very few things are always true. Tone is subjective. There are great solid-state amps and great tube amps, but ultimately, tone is a matter of taste.
