    How good do you feel when releasing an EP/Album?

    It took me years to push myself to actually sit down and just do it. How did you feel when you released your first solo or any project? I released an EP with two of my old bands but never felt this good about it. I was heavily inspired by Cyberpunk and the whole future aesthetic. It isn't...

    Likelihood on seeing Headless Ibanez?

    I just wanted to start a discussion and see what everyone thinks the likelihood of Ibanez's EHB series being made into a guitar. I have an EHB1005MS and they've knocked it out of the park. I am just afraid with COVID hitting that sales could have been hit on it reducing the chance we might get...

    Are 8 strings dead?

    I've been noticing that companies aren't really releasing new 8 strings besides custom or semi custom companies like Kiesel, Strandberg, Drinkwater, Skervesen, ETC. It seems like the big names like Schecter, Ibanez, Jackson, and LTD just keep their same lineups from years prior or don't do...

    Guitar Manufacturers and Crazy Finishes 2018

    I don't know if it's just me. Does it feel like companies are starting to do more crazy finishes? Like look at some of the new Ibanez and Schecter Models. Don't get me wrong I love a crazy finish but it's just odd. I feel left out considering I mainly play 8 strings too lol

    Endurneck

    Super basic and probably in the wrong place. I’ve have had my Boden 8 since last Saturday and was super intimidated by the Endurneck. I’ve gotten used to it and realized something. This invention is amazing! I’ve never been this comfortable playing! I’ve done thick, thin, you name it. This...

    Strap for a Strandberg

    I just ordered and received my custom shop Strandberg Boden (NGD sometime soon). It was secondhand and it came with a Dimarzio clip lock strap. The guitar sits too low even at it's highest. What strap would you suggest? I want the guitar to sit up higher.
