NGD - DC800, first 8 stringer, and a clip to go with it + the spec sheet!

[Larcher]

This guitar, it's amazing. Do not regret it one single bit to have bought this. The guys at carvin we're really nice and helpful when I needed help, props to them.

Here is the clip. I threw it together real fast and didn't have much time to mix:

also, the clip, for anyone who is curious is, DC800 -> axefx2 -> and then some shitty mixing

OMG that's fantastic! That walnut top, that flame maple board... just looks amazing all around. Congrats man! How does she play? Give us a playability and tone report.

 

[Larcher]

10/10

Listen to the clip I put up to get a little demo of how she sounds!

Barely did any eqing, just did a high pass at 100hz and lowpass at 12khz! rest is amp dialed

 

[noise in my mind]

congrats on the pickup dude! these are seriously amazing guitars. I just sold mine, but I am already regretting profoundly and thinking about getting another lol.

lol! why'd you sell?

 

[frogunrua]

Congrats! Now we just need to see the back.

 

[Larcher]

ah! my bad, updated the first post with a back picture

 

[noise in my mind]

lol! why'd you sell?

long story. I got it while i was waiting for fanned custom 8 to be completed. I got the custom and sold the carvin since I was strapped for cash at the time.

 

[Funz]

Congrats on the new 8.

 

[TIBrent]

Awesome looking geetar dude, HNGD!

Looks SO good, man. You got a great walnut top there and the flame on the fretboard is awesome, too. Happy NGD!

 

[fabeau]

Very nice figured walnut, HNGD!

 

[Larcher]

thanks guys! I am very happy about this guitar aswell the only thing I need to adjust myself to is the 27" scale, I'm use to it on a 7 string but with the 8 string I feel cramped, but it's just something I need to get used to

 

[LordCashew]

Nice! I like the tone in your clip too.

 

[Larcher]

Thanks dude(s) !

I did another clip tonight here: DC800 Axefx II tone test by Larcher on SoundCloud - Create, record and share your sounds for free

This one sounds much, MUCH better.

if you want the patch for the axefx2 just go in the recording section, I made a topic about it with the patch included, also gave the knob numbers for those who use the standard/ultra!

 

[Scruffy1012]

nice axe man! absolutely friggin gorgeous, GAS just rose by 1000000000000000000000%

HNGD!

 

[Larcher]

thank you dude

 

[LivingTimmy]

Happy NGD!! Freaking sweet guitar! I've always wanted to see what a DC800 would look like with a Maple neck and a Claro Walnut top. Its quite similar to what I want to get

 

[Larcher]

It's fucking beautiful I will admit. the only thing that 'bugs' me even though it's not THAT much of a big deal, is that the back body of the guitar is glossy, but the neck is not. I did not want a glossy neck that way there'd be less friction when sliding the hand/thumb along the neck. that is my only complaint, but it doesn't kill me to the point to return or sell my guitar next time I'll know!
