i actually want a 8 string .
That gives you a low B string and a high A string.


i really want it for its weirdness . Its just so much lol but enough to make some interesting stuff . To be honest i meant a 9 string like the guy from High on Fire as his . But a 8 string is pretty good .
Unless you buy an agile, it would be more economic to buy a 7 string and tune it to open c (G,C, G, C, G,C,E) ala Devon Townsend. Only one note difference from the 8 strings F# standard tuning.

Personalty I want an 8 string so I can tune to either A standard (A,D,G,C,F,A,E,G) or B standard (B,E,A,D,G,B,E,A). I just have to find a pack of strings that'll take such a high tuned 1st string at that neck length.


what ? no no no . The 9 string he is like a normal tuned guitar (he tunes down to C aka 2 whole steps) but the last three strings like the G , B , and the E are double . Its weird and cool to hear , and i really want one .... one day .

Are you talking about John Carpenter from Deftones? I was referring to Devin Townsend of; Strapping Young Lad, Punky Brooster, Devin Townsend Band, and Steve Vai (guest) fame.

I prefer Sleep but yes, much love for Matt. I didn't know the guys in Mastodon had one, I hope they use it on the new album.
