Cannibal! The Musical

Chords that use the high A or low B and no muted strings won't track properly. Low chords and high chords or regular cowboy 6 string chords work fine.

At any moment, yes. So, for instance, if you play on the low b and high e at the same time, the note will not track, but if you played one then the other just a moment later, it would track both. If you do a lot of walking bass stuff, that could be a problem, but, honestly, it was very rarely an...

My Oni CF8 has 8 string Roland compatible hexaphonic output. It works just as well as any other midi guitar contemporary with it, but you cannot play the highest and lowest strings at the same time. No outboard gear necessary, but it uses the older ghost-style piezos on ABM individual bridges...

Looks kind of dope, but kind of dopey at the same time. I'll reserve judgement until I see price and spec's.

I still have my Revolver Pro 7. It's cool as hell if you like the gimmick. Fernandez seemed to really lean into the "it's cool as hell if you like the gimmick" market. I've rarely seen Fernandez guitars that were cool as hell regardless of the gimmick, though. It's unfortune that they have to...

I'm a little late to the party. But I've been doing the high A thing for a long time. I use a .007" at 600 mm scale. If you do a lot of whole step bends, it will break. If you only do them rarely, you will have more options. A shorter scale means less stress on the string when you bend. It's...

John, Sean, and Ian are the same name, because English is more of a soup than an entree of a language. But Jon is a different name. My great grandfather was also a sort of a John, but since he lived in a place that, during his youth, had changed hands like 4 times, he was also confused about...

Brief follow up- I spend about an hour sanding the heel down about 3/16 inches, and it's much better now. Nothing fretting out except the stupid low F# since the teeny tiny height adjustment screws stripped, and there's a high fret or two under the high b string. Still all saddles are max...

I came in here after a week away to see people arguing about guitars on this guitar forum. WTF happened?!

IDK, I have an MS and the only high paying job it got me was with a company that was literally scamming people. In my personal experience, you get good jobs by knowing the right people. Where I am at now, I'm sure the degree didn't hurt, but I started at literally the bottom and worked my way...

I'm pretty sure a ton of people predicted this would happen this year. GC is not doing so hot, either. I won't be too surprised if they're next. It's not JUST because of online sales, because manufacturers of guitars are taking a bit of an economic beating as well. It's a combination of a lot...

Oh thanks for the update. That sucks that playabilitubwas that bad, because it came out looking so nice. That doesn't bode too well for me. I've done half a dozen partscasters now. I've had great luck with those, even when using shoestring budget parts and nothing is guaranteed to fit...

Sorry for the thread necromancy, but I just completed the finish on mine, and, during assembly, ran into some snags. Maybe you can help? What am I missing about the head lockers? I can't seem to get the wound strings in without taking a totally unreasonable amount of time and effort. I'm...

Leo Jaymz pictured for scale (25.5") Pick for scale (cool picks phat cat) Like I said, I'll do a more thorough review later

So I bought the 8 string instead, so I could get stainless frets and richlite fretboard. First impressions: 1. This thing is awesome. 2. You are not joking about weight. The product page on Rondo says "less than 6 pounds!" but, I disbelieved that as soon as I picked it up. I just weighed it on a...

I'm sure it's just a feel thing. But, there are a few more objective reasons: 1. Can't use your left hand thumb the same way. 2. Fewer available guitars. 3. Fewer available pickups, bridges, nuts, etc. Also, if it's your signature guitar, you will sell fewer of them, which means less money in...

Just generally being respectful, as in, treating other bands the way you would like your band to be treated. Years ago, I do a ton of festivals, and there was always at least one band ruining everyone else's day. So many bands showed up with literally zero gear, no amps, no drums, no guitars...
