I recently got my first ERG over winter and I decided that it needed some upgrades... It is a BcR Warlock 7 and had the stock BDSM pickups in it and i got a Nazgul bridge / Sentient neck 7 string set from Seymour Duncan. :hbang:
My overall impression with SD:
Nazgul Bridge- Although I've...

Over the last few years I have fantasized about having 6 guitars, that cover the entire range of the piano. These guitars would be played by 6 people live, or used in a studio layered with one another.
The idea is you could compose a bass line and a guitar line, and then double track each an...
Hi guys, Im on the hunt for my first 8 string. I've been playing guitar for a while now and I already owned several 6 strings and Im currently playing a LTD h1007 7 string. Im looking to play both djenty stuff and clean/jazzy stuff like Rob Scallons original material. Normally, I would try them...
Today, I received my Halo Seraphim 8, and I am thoroughly impressed with its build quality. I know that Halo has had some trouble in the past with its QA. This guitar is listed on their website $1799.99, and I bought it directly from Halo via E-bay for considerably less. However, I feel that...
Just got a couple new pedals and was getting some cool sounds out of the them so I made a playthrough of a new song.
It's very Tera Melos, TTNG, and CHON influenced with a lot of odd meter grooves.
I'm pretty excited about it but please let me know what you think!

Hey guys!
So I very recently picked up an 8 string that I fell in love with! I didn't look very far into searching for bands that use them, because I knew I was going to write with it regardless of who else did, but I can't seem to find much now! So I was wondering, what are some good bands...

Hey guys!
So I've decided that I'm finally going to go ahead and purchase an 8 string guitar! I've looked around a lot of places seeing which would be best (for a metal fan who loves weedly solos), but I'd still like to have some more opinions.
I'd like to spend around $1000 or less. I'm...

Hi Everyone,
So, my custom performer 8 string finally reached me after 9 months from initial talk to delivery. There is a thread in the luthiers section that explains why it took quite a while (mainly due to postal error for pickups). Ok, I want to be objective and split the pics on the good...
Hi guys. I am sure we are all familiar with most heavy bottom, low tuned bands that are popular right now.
I love Meshuggah, but I have a hard time with most other bands using 8s in a similar way and then haven't heard a lot of stuff out of that box that I like.
Pig Destroyer and Anaal...
