^Alex will deffinently give input. I sent him a vid of what i thought some of the riffs were from darkest day of man and i got approval/tabs! Alex is an awesome guy.

Oh yea! Your the guy that posted it up on youtube and i am always asking you questions! xD

Yea dude im learning it by ear, the only problem is that I cant record stuff! I have a Pod Pro which is good for recording so Ive heard, but I dont have the equipment/software to do so, I dont even have an amp, I use headphones

But i know i got at least 75% of the song down dude... If I can find a way to record this stuff, then Alex could help me out. LoL, Alex is my name too so its kinda funny, and my best friends name is Zach

Wait whats your youtube name?
and awesome, i would say go to a friends house and record it on their amp with a regular camera and post it up.

And start a band, get members with the names phil, gabe, ben, and kevin and start a band called "Whiteschapels" or something SUPER similar. Youll get so much recognition so fast itl spin your head hahaha

Lol you know Whitechapel has a t-shirt design with White Castle's logo behind Whitechapel? Funny shit

Btw Alex I love what you guys did with the new album. Honestly it's one of my favorite albums of all time

I'm playing around with it right now. I want to keep the 7 strings in drop A. A E A D G B E, because thats our normal tuning.

I could put the top string in E to be in key with Drop A, but honestly that's just so low its stupid. So i'm trying to leave the top string in F# and tune the low B string to A and write around that. We'll see how it goes hahahaha

I tune my F# to an E. It's the 8-String Drop-D. I don't find it that stupid.

I've actually heard people tune 8 strings down a whole step to a Drop-D and it's still nice and clear.

P.S., that YouTube video is NOT by me. It's a dude in Italy I stumbled across that has pretty huge musical balls.

I hear some Drop G action on Unnerving! Not really 8 string or anything, but it's getting down there

 

[heyimdallas]

I'm pretty sure we got Loomis on here too

Didn't Bulb used to post?

 

[vhmetalx]

Didn't Bulb used to post?

*facepalm*
he still does when he isnt busy.

and why did this thread get bumped? I'm sure its kinda irrelevant now.

 

[heyimdallas]

Yikes, okay dude, I'm new here, my bad, I just figured he was too busy with Periphery to post anymore.

 

[KenAncients]

is that the 25.5 scale ESP 8? If so i wouldnt try shredding above the 12th fret haha

also, why not just add a higher A string? It gives you more range to play with further up the board rather than lower?

because Whitechapel doesn't play above the seventh fret hahaha. jk...but no really.
