Fretless Djenty Riffing ( Vigier Surfreter, Revalver, SD 2.0 )

[Bigju]

Hi all,

I don't post very often but I read 7s a lot, and I learned so much about modern metal guitar and sound in this particular section that I wanna share my attempt at djenting a little bit with my fretless Vigier with you guys

< This is me bobbing my head to the song... Very cool! I think this is the first time I've ever heard a fretless seven string guitar.

It's a 6 but tuned to C# with a dropped B.
But the main issue with this kind of playing is the very very low action ( you nearly don't "feel" the high strings ) and you can't go crazy on the string gauge without having to modify the nut ( 11 to 54 here, can't go further ).

Anyway if you have the opportunity to try out a Surfreter sometime, go for it it's an amazing guitar !

Congratulations, the whole album is awsome!

 

[pylyo]

absolutely stunning track m8

the part with the higher lead note slides reminded me a bit of Mattias IA Eklundh

completely insane in total, good job on intonating that fretless guitar

 

[Verity]

Holy shit man, this is fucking awesome! \m/

 

[MetalBuddah]

Holy crap! That is pretty sick dude
Wasn't expecting it to be awesome because of the fretless, but this is superb

 

[JamesM]

EDIT:
Seriously, I don't even want to release my EP now.

I did thicker gauge and flatwounds on mine. I tried 9's when I first got it, and yes, it felt like strands of hair!
