One of my favorite standards. Warts and all. Still working on recording the live setup. Frameworks classical 7 (best guitar I own) through Fishman preamp and Quilter. Visuals not too exciting but great background.

Hi guys,
I am trying to improve my composing skills. I would love your input on my instrumental that is on Spotify. How can I improve and create more depth in my arrangements?
Ode to Peace No. 1
I want to preface this thread by stating that I have never previously placed an order directly from Rondo Music before this incident occurred.
Recently, I saw that Rondo Music was offering a fretless classical guitar on their online store under the model name: Agile Renaissance Classical 625 EQ...
A while ago Ibanez sold 7- and 8-string classical guitars. It was a toss-up between an 8-string classical and the 7-string jazz guitar the AFJ957, and I opted for the 8-string. I've had this guitar for 7 or 8 years now (I can't remember if I bought it in 2013 or 2014...).
I've always found it...
When I took up 7 string guitars about 5 years ago, I wanted to get both shredders and acoustic guitars that I could play with my old wonky wrists and hands. So, flat tops acoustics with high action are out of the question for my hand strength. I got an Eastman Jazz-16 carved archtop and it has...
I needed some practice material to get the 8 strings under my fingers. Ended up putting all of J. S. Bach's "Three Sonatas and Partitas" in the lowest possible range - which is actually 16vb from where it is on the violin. Happy bass clef reading. It's a free 178 page PDF...
Hi guys, this is my project I've worked on for a long time. I've incorporated my classical background (violin player) with my other passion, which is metal of course! I know that in this day and age, to name a genre is kind of weird, but for the sake of simplicity, it's Instrumental Orchestral...

Just released "Trail Mix", a five part suite for seven string classical guitar.

My classical playing lags behind my writing, but here is a mediocre recording of movement 4...
I've been getting into jazz and latin music (classical, and probably bossa nova) as of late, learning jazz chords and playing mestis songs (Luz y Cielo in particular). I'd really appreciate suggestions of songs, standards and sources, etc to look at. I'm posting here because I also want to be...
Hi 7S community. Just joined here today. I wanted to ask a question to all you smart guitar people.
My dad just bought me my first acoustic nylon string classical guitar and I've been having so much fun playing the limited songs I know how to play on it.
I've had it for a month and havn't...
Hey, I need some advice here, in my area there's a kamouraska concert II with a built in pickup that is very cheap (150$) and looks great. I will, of course try it so I will know if it sounds great or bad and if it is comfortable to me, but I'd like to know if anybody heard of them or own (ed)...
Hey, i'd like to if any of you know of a fingerstyle technique(s) that would allow me to play fast leads on single string (three note per string kind of thing) and if you do, what exercises would you recommend :shred: :shred: Thank you !
Hey guys, here's my most recent work, I am participating in a contest with it. I'm always trying to improve so if you have any mix advice, I would be glad to hear it. :)
P.S. That's an acoustic guitar played clasically... I never thought the day would come but recently thoughts about getting a...
Brief & Accurate Description of gear/guitar: Orfea 10-string classical guitar, currently set up in Yepes-tuning (from low to high A B D C E A D G B E), good condition but there are some playmarks around the body. It plays very good and has a low action. Just selling it because I can't handle...
I cannot wait for this to come out! :metal:
I am really hoping this album has the elements of Classic Symphony X with the new sound of Symphony X. Which is what it sounds like it is headed towards.
Hi guys,
pretty nice NGD today with something a little unusual I suppose, my new Ibanez g207cwc.
I've wanted to get a seven string classical for a while as I write a lot of music that would suit the sound and I've finally picked one up.
First impressions, looks stunning to me. Really nice...
The other day I was searching Symphony X live videos and I came across this video of Michael Pinella playing with his nephew, Chris Pinella (Trans-Siberian Orchestra) and he has a solo in the middle of one of his sets and it is absolutely gorgeous! I have never seen a video of him playing a...
Hi guys !
Never got time to make a proper ngd but today, i wanted to make one.
Back in June I really got into classical guitars and I knew I needed one but my funds were limited (I would have bought the Ibanez 8 string classical but it was too expensive and not in stock so my first 8...
So I was going to pick it up tomorrow but screw that, right?
As far as I'm aware, I'm perhaps one of the first to get this in Australia. From what I understood of the conversation my store was having with the distributor, I grabbed one from the first shipment. Not sure how it is world-wide, but...
