I did a search and didnt find any other threads. Found his youtube vids, This guy is a beast.


YouTube - 7 string bass Mowgli sweepie riff-Veil of maya

Much agreed! His 7 string bass was epic looking in person. Didn't know that he was filling in for them though till now. Pretty sick player.

 

[heavy7-665]

Actually he seems to be an official member now.

He has some maaaaaaad skills. Nice bass too.

Tell me about it. This guy is why I'm getting an 8 string bass.

Watchin some of his youtube vids now, and he's certainly a very talented player. His AAL cover is nuts.

Is this for real?

I met the guy in Raleigh during the Summer Slaughter tour. Guys only been playing for about five years. Fucking fantastic.

I saw VoM on a Summer Slaughter offdate without knowing they had replaced their old bassist, and was blown away that they had a seven-string player. I can't wait to hear what they will do with him in the studio, they have nowhere to go but up. Also, the bass has more strings than the guitar in that band now. That's a first.

Unexpect.
Bass: 9-string
Guitars: 6-string

Unexpect wins by a large margin

I guess so. I guess Behold the Arctopus counts if you would consider a Warr guitar a bass. Also Viraemia. Eh, 5 is enough for me.

Excellent addition to the thread.

Borknagar has been doing that for a long time too.

 

[Varcolac]

Manowar. But 8 strings in 4 courses is cheating, and the monstrosity that Joey DeMaio plays can't really be called a bass any more.

 

[eventhetrees]

Marc is switching to 7 string for the next album, so it'll be a tie on the amount of strings

Such win! I love seeing more guys put extended range bass to good use, it will be awesome hearing vom with sevens too.
