Recently, I got AT and ST v2 models from Altura. I have a bunch of branded good performing guitars. But this budget friendly guitar has surprises on its sleeve.

It took me only 30 minutes to set up each, action preference, neck relief, radius adjustment, intonation For ST, flutter setup with tremolo. Fret leveling is awesome considering it has stainless steel frets. Electronics were also clean.

If you are looking for a more budget friendly option than jcraft, fermata, ligaya, rj or dnd (shout out to this brand as they kept improving and beating some of the branded models) You might check their guitar, especially if you want a more vintage style guitar.

It is so budget friendly, it costs only 7k while re-fretting a guitar costs 7.5k. Not to diss other guitar brands like global, azalea, thomson, aspire because how hard for them to set up and replacing are more common even brand new especially adjusting the neck relief. Altura is highly recommended for beginner and intermediate guitar players.

P.S. generation today were so lucky that they have this option unlike 15 years ago, a 7k guitar will suck a lot lol

i've been badly looking to get a better strat, and i've been eyeing the sest210 and thinking about treating myself to it on my birthday. it reminds me of a stealth fighter in all black. yes or no?

HI pooo! I'm working on an indie animation project and I just wanted to know how much would the music per episode (10 mins) would cost?

context hehe: Specifically, I'm looking for pieces to be specific to what is currently happening in each individual scenes. So most probably I will send a draft animatic to be the basis for the scenes. I also want each character to have a specific assigned instrument.

Music references I have that i want the final products to sound like (but its not limited to theseee):

- Giselle ballet

- any ballet by tchaikovsky

- very heavy on tchaikovsky hihi

general vibes: ethereal, whimsical, youthful, summer; and for the second half: creepy, depressing, scary, tension, betrayal

Please note that my project is still very early in its development so i wont be hiring anyone yet anytime soon :'DD. I just want to canvas my budget for the music per episode so i can budget it properly esp w our economy rn lol.

Thank you so much in advance ^^

lots of love to all musicians!!

Hello po! I'd like to turn the pickup style of my Stratocaster into SSH from SSS. Pero hindi ako marunong mag change ng pick ups, at ayoko sanang irisk makadamage ng wiring.

Aralin ko nalang for the experience or dun nalang ako sa safe na choice? Thank you po sa advice!

Planning to buy a strat sa 11.11 or 12.12

Please be kind, as I was devastated when I discovered what happened 🥲

I was on vacation for five days, and when I got home and removed the cloth cover from my piano, I noticed a yellow droplet of liquid. I immediately suspected that my cat had peed on it 😭

I’m honestly heartbroken and would appreciate any advice on possible repairs, cleaning, or maintenance. Has anyone experienced something similar, especially with a digital piano?

Piano details:
Model: Roland FP-30X
Date purchased: February 14, 2026
Store: Perfect Pitch, SM Megamall
Issue noticed after discovery: The lower A key seems to have a very sensitive touch response when I tested the piano.

Thank you in advance for any advice!

So I'm thinking about my next guitar purchase, I can currently afford around 20k-30k and I've initially decided to get a Jackson Kelly once I have enough for it. I'm choosing between it and a King V at the moment.

But I'm concerned on the long term experience in practicing on it because I've only ever used super strats/stratocasters/headless. How was your experience using it long term? I mainly play metal now so I'm curious.

I'm also open for any alternatives if you have any suggestions. Thanks!

Not sure if this is the right sub to post but I’m Neekko, an aspiring solo artist and I released a new song called “Mundo Mo” I guess it’s a song after overcoming all the struggles in a relationship and wanting to be part of your other half’s “Mundo”. Description could be a bit cheesy but I hope you’ll give this a listen. It’s also out on all streaming platforms

laging sold yung gauge 11 high e string sa guitar pusher. saan pa ba pwede bumili? ang hirap magpalit ng elixir string. wala pa kong budget para bumili uli ng isang set kasi kabibili ko lang din.

I'm currently saving up about 30k to 40k to buy a new guitar which I will get around late 2027 or mid 2028 if things go well. I have never went to a decent guitar shop and have only went to Lazer before. It can be Laguna or NCR region for the shops!

I was interested in getting a Les Paul Junior or a Yamaha Pacifica 600 series if I could find any of those two within the budget. Those two guitars are my main guitars at the moment.

I have an SX Stratocaster which I used for a few years before it broke and then I was given the Ibanez RGR520D that my uncle used to use. And while I love the Ibanez, I want a different guitar in the near future that isn't a Floyd Rose since I always find it a hassle to restring and one of it's finetuners is not working at all.

I want to hire a band for a list of my bolero music selection in January 2027.

Hello guys, has anyone tried or owned a Clifton Mini Bass guitar or any brand of mini bass? If so how was it? I recently saw it on shopee and surprised by its size. I wonder if is it good for live gigs. I’m planning to buy it since it’s small and I travel a lot and would’ve love to bring it with me during travels.

Plan ko bumili ng acoustic guitar. Meron ba dito may ganitong ibanez guitars? Kamusta sound and matibay ba sya?

For home use lang as hobby. Planning on buying sa audiophile market market.
