    New Necrophagist... no, not really but so close

    A teaser from tech death master Hannes Grossman's new album due next February. Suicmez's voice is absolutely nailed.

    Is anyone else hitting that age where they're just not up on/don't care about music like they used to be?

    44 here, not listening so much music as earlier, the huge game changer for me was being a father a few years ago. I was always discovering new music everyday but now I listen to fewer and fewer bands, don't have time and the time I have left I sadly admit I'm more interesting in the news and...

    Alkaloid - The Malkuth Grimoire (Prog Metal)

    I wish the t-shirts weren't so meh The new album cover makes me droll but too rich to put it in a tshirt I guess. Last grossman was great and i got the tshirt too. Anyway, music first, I hope there's an awesome album though the song shown didn't get me crazy, too much cthulu vibe, which I love...

    string height in a 7 string with FR

    nah, I finally lowered the screws and the floyd rose in either of my guitars till the original position and turned a few times the truss rod screw, straightening the neck and now the action is way lower, having the guitars hanged in wall mounts unplayed for a while should bend them, I guess...

    string height in a 7 string with FR

    Well, in my other guitar I was able to lower the action down to 2,2 for the 7th string and 1,75 for the first one (measuring in the 14th fret) but it took me to virtually make the bolts out of the fixed hipshot bridge, is that even normal? pics following:

    I'm based in Europa and the one eloki suggest cannot be served here but I found this one and it is definitely METRIC:

    string height in a 7 string with FR

    Thanks, mates! That's right, now I have to find a 1,2mm key, I've been to a big hardware shop this morning and they have nothing smaller than 1,5mm (which is the same in my pic, too big for it) or I need to buy a whole set for 30€... come on!

    I guess, since it is the smallest in 3 sets of tools I have

    string height in a 7 string with FR

    Not so much, it was completely body level before I lowered and now is a bit sunken but not a big deal I think. Maybe I might go a bit further and be more "ambitious" with the string height in order to gain more comfortability... dunno. I may consider it for another guitar, I have a Lag Arkane...

    string height in a 7 string with FR

    Got it! lowering the bridge meant I have 2mm now in the 7th and 1,5mm in the 1st string, fret 15, now it is just fine for me. Tomorrow I'll try with the other one with fixed hipshot. Thanks everyone!

    string height in a 7 string with FR

    Yeah, Ran guitars is long time dead now, no possibility to ask. I like the pickups how they are, tried several heights and that was the best for wo much output that the warpigs deliver. I guess I'll have to get used to that string height or take it to a qualified tech, which I don't have any...

    string height in a 7 string with FR

    The guitar is a Ran Crusher 7 27'' and I noticed checking my other Ran Crusher with fixed hipshot that the string height in both is quite similar. That made me think maybe the construction of the guitar, longer scale is constructed to have higher string distance or maybe I'm just concluding...

    That is very interesting, but as it implies taking the neck out to shim it, I'll try first lowering the bridge a little bit, I think

    string height in a 7 string with FR

    Well, I remeasured it, and the height changed (I must have been tired and didn't do it properly. Now I realized it wasn't as dramatic since I got 2,5mm in the 1st string and 2,75 in the 7th, still to high, especially in the thin strings. I tried what you said, holding down 1st and 17th frets the...

    Thats my hypothesis too!

    string height in a 7 string with FR

    Great and detailed answer, I fulfill the first two for sure, but have to take a look to the neck relief and then check the remaining steps ... and then I assume that the base plate is not completely defining of the correct setup of the FR as it is completely level with the body of the guitar in...

    I don't know very well, should measure it probably, right?
