    What pickups are in your 6/7 string baritones (Or: Give me baritone pickup options)

    I have been recommending them from the moment I first heard them installed in my Ibanez MMM1, but the Dominion set is phenomenal for baritone applications. The emphasis on the mids coupled with the nice clear bass sound great. I have tuned that particular guitar, with those pickups, down to drop...

    Jahn fanned 8 build thread

    The wood combo is not really to my taste, but the body shape is very interesting. Should be a great guitar!

    Lefty OXC 7 (Oakland Axe Factory + XEN)

    I can only speak to playability on mine, but these turned out incredible. They are looked stunning too. Good luck with the sale. If it wasn't backwards I would consider it haha.

    Rings of saturn's lucas mann's guitar ability described by recentlydeparted guitarist

    Anyone who didn't already know that they recorded everything note by note was in denial. The news here is that he wasn't using it as just a production technique to capture the "brutal desolation of space and the intergalactic horrors of the great unknown." Turns out he's just a fake. Oh well.

    Vik Guitars Discussion

    I don't understand why everyone associated with Vik has to try to be so slippery all the time. Like Leonardo, who will passive-aggressively defend or promote Vik but then changes the subject anytime anyone wants to talk about it. Your "promotion" of the brand is doing the company a disservice at...

    New Rings of Saturn

    I am not even convinced this is a different song, but I couldn't make it all the way through to confirm. I will say this, at least we don't have to look at their mugs while they are faking their fake performances this time around.

    Potentially joining a Drop D band. Tuning advice?

    12lbs at D1 is insanely light tension. If you don't want the sensation of rubber bands below your fingers I would aim for something closer to 17lbs on the lowest side. The set above is actually backwards IMO. Why would you want so much more tension on the treble side?

    The Contortionist Megathread

    I like the first two albums, but I completely agree that their newest offering is on a different level in my opinion.

    New Rings of Saturn

    I think you are giving Etherial too much credit... I would wear the fvck out of that shirt versus paying for one of those guitars 10/10.

    The Contortionist Megathread

    I was really excited for this album, and its even better than expected. I love the subtle reprisals they worked in throughout the album. It has a very cohesive and consistent atmosphere from start to finish without any of the songs running together. I wouldn't say the high points on this album...

    Can't get that Gritty Metal Bass tone! Sansamp RBI

    Preamp before the crossovers in the sonic maximizer will really change the landscape of your tone for the better. The RBI is capable of some pretty nice dirty tones.

    If my ears are serving me correctly, it sounds like a Boss Major and Shit Diminished... Pretty interesting.

    Doberman FF9 build

    You don't see that many guitars with reverse horns... It's like a it wanted to be a singlecut, but couldn't commit haha. Looks interesting though. I am not in love with the shape, but it will obviously look way different once it is made of wood. I am excited to see the final product.

    Animals As Leaders MEGATHREAD

    I am pretty sure that Nolly cleared this up himself and said he played bass on only a few songs and that the majority was once again synth bass. It is on this very thread right before or after the album came out.
