Hey fellow low-tuners, so for some time I have been playing around with very low tunings (D1, C1, B0 etc) and currently i am trying to tune as low as JT does with his low string (A0). I know he prefers pretty light strings, but I just dont understand how he does archieve a playable string...
Hey sevenstringslingers! I've had this idea for a while. I now have 2 8-strings (Ibanez M80M and LTD SC-608B) and 2 9-strings (Ibanez RGIR9FME and Schecter Damien Platinum 9) and I basically wanted to do a little comparison to see how much of a difference in sound the scale length and pickups...
Here's something I've been wanting to do for a while now, compare a bunxh of amps with my 9-string to see which amps can handle an instrument with such an extended range. Obviously we have all the high notes and regular notes but also those super low C#-string and low F#-string notes. So this...

Hey all, I love my Helix/HX platforms for heavy tones and not just for 6 strings but also for 7, 8 and even 9 strings. It's just so easy to get some amazing and huge sounding guitar tones with little effort. My presets are usually very simple, (stomp when applicable) amp, YA IR and often some...
What do you guys find more attractive: 1)Standard (ebgdaEBf#c#) 2)Drop E w/ B below (ebgdaEBEB) 3) 5 string Bass Hybrid (ebgdaDAEB) or something else entirely? I'm troubled because on an 8 string drop E makes a lot of sense to me, but it's a bit of a self contained system, and I'm not sure it...
Hi Everyone, If you've read the Luthiery and Modification section, some of you may have seen a thread about a Mango Guitar with an 8, 9, or 10 string format. I actually have had it for two weeks and now would like to provide my thoughts to complete the story. I hope you enjoy reading the write...
