Ok so I been searching in this forum to be sure its not been posted in here before

A friend just posted this link to me

My question is simple....

low B tuning with a .08 set of strings, YEEEAH! (that´s low B as on a 5 string bass, btw, just so you don´t go "hey, that´s plausible!" )

I wonder what it's tuned to...

What a shit joke Mischa.
But I laughed at it anyway

Funny thing is, despite it being a nutty scale length, the low notes aren't really that low. I'm pretty sure my bass is lower.

WTF?

i want one to tune to f# an octave below an 8 string. also, i´ll need a large chair or stool.

i´d guess you could do that with a .56 string, no?

we have to test this.... Just to see what will happen to the string on that Guitar

 

[E Lucevan Le Stelle]

Heh, I want one... it would be a two man job to play though!

 

[voiceguitar]

Hahaha, I wouldnt want to embrace a string breaking on that beast

I see your guitar bigger than you and raise you a guitar bigger than your house.



(I know it's been posted before- but both of these videos have been posted everywhere about 30 thousand times so this is fair game)

 

[hufschmid]

Wow thats impressive!

I think those types of videos must be posted 3 million times

Amazing how he carves the neck on the smaller instruments, I have studied the book of William Cupiano who uses the same technique, its pretty scary, especially if the chisel slips and goes right true the 2mm thick ribbs....

Those are talented people
