I've been listening to the new album since i got it off Itunes. Mainly after repeated listens the album to me it sounds like post rock or indie rock, mixed with hard rock or metal riffs. The music sounds kind of different, more like the band is slowly taking a new direction. There's some leads...

Thanks for all the replies, basically I have noticed that in the past when I have shown people the 7-string. When I'd come to jam with people, most of the time there was no problem. I could just jam and we'd have fun. Yet back in college when I tried to join different bands with people that had...

I have been writing more with my extended range Guitars. I have a 5-string bass tuned to B standard. Both my 7-string guitar and 8-string are tuned to B and F # standard. I have noticed that while the 8th -string is the same octave as an F# on 2nd fret on the E string on a bass. They still sound...

Yeah pretty much a 7-string guitar is still a 6-string guitar in E. Music is all about having fun doing what you want to do There are just MORE options. More strings equals more options, sounds, timbres to paint with.To quote Yngwie Malmsteen "how can less be more it's impossible more is more."

Well long story short the band was a latino/cumbia/rock cover band. I played with them for 8 months and then eventually quit. I brought my 7-string because I only had two guitars at that time. The Les Paul and the RG7321, so if strings broke on my Les Paul during rehearsal or during a gig well...

I played with a cover band for 8 months touring in Colorado. I pretty much would just bring the 7-string as back up if any strings broke on my Les Paul. I Pretty much only had my Les Paul and my RG 7321.

Have you guys here on ss.org that play extended range guitars, had experiences where didn't get the job as lead guitarist? Simply because you show up to practice with a 7-string or 8-string guitar. Or you were told to put that "thing" away. I have usually shown up and tried out for bands using...

Keep the stories coming!

Have you guys listened to Kush? That was kinda of a rap metal out let for Stephen with the former drummer Raymond and bassist Christian from Fear Factory. And B-real the vocalist from Cypress hill. Its too bad they never really released anything, except the tracks you can find on their myspace...

Yeah it is hard living out there I've been there with mom to visit and mainly for ceremonies. I was mainly there through out the 90's to now visiting. My mom is from there, and her side of the family is from there. My dad is Kiowa, from Oklahoma city. I'm enrolled in the Standing Rock Sioux...

Thanks for posting that, I've been thinking of getting a set of Black Winter pickups for my 7-string. I haven't had the chance to replace my stock pickups and was looking at these bad boys!

I can't wait to listen to Gore all the way through. I've been a Deftones fan ever since 97. I remember going to my local mall and getting "Around the Fur" on cassette tape and loving it. I saw the Deftones in concert only once in Denver back in 2000. It was during their White Pony tour. The...

I have an odd story that happened when I walked home. This happened 14 years ago in 2002 back when I was high school. I live in Boulder, Colorado which is a college town. Boulder is pretty close to the mountains. We are a small city surrounded by creeks, trees, and wildlife. And we have a few...

I got the lizard burst last night! I love this guitar. With 9's on this thing plays like butter. Its the baritone scale feels great. It feels very natural to play. I tried out at the pawn shop looked it, i plugged it in tried it out and it was fine. It came with a case, picks and new strings. I...

I have had a RG7421 Ibanez for 9 years now. It still holds up pretty well after all these years. I am thinking of finally upgrading it, getting new tuners and pickups. I usually tune it to B standard, lately though its been in A standard for 6 months. I have 11-64 GHS strings on it. After...

Yeah I will be sure to go over it play it and see if anything is wrong with it. From What I could see it still looked brand new. I am going to check it out on Friday and possibly get it on Saturday. If anything is wrong with it, I will pass and not get it. I just love the look and feel of...

Here in Colorado I have found an agile septor in a pawn shop I can considering buying. Its going for $ 222.00 I am going to look at it more and try it out. When I saw it a few days ago it looked pretty good. The neck was straight, yet the strings were not set up yet. Its like someone bought it...

Yeah I love the album after as well for the concept and of course for the saxophone that is used throughout the album. I want to check out Shining more. I saw Opeth three years ago in Boulder, Colorado at the fox. I saw them play two nights in a row, they were good shows. They played...

I think Das Seelenbrechen was pretty good, its Not his best album or his worst. I liked that it's experimental. most of the album takes some getting used to though. I'm glad he still does his screams and clean vocals. He shows that his screams still work in tracks like "Regen". That album seems...
