As always, sounds good. It wouldn't hurt to try a seven string maybe tune to drop A or drop B. You are such a good player I don't think you'll have much trouble with a seven string You are good enough to play an 8 but I say go with the 7!
I totally think you should go 7,8, or (hear me out) 9 string. I personally have a 9 string. Though C# std as usual isn’t easily usable even with 30” scale length, if you tune it F# to high A it goes super low and super high. Giving you the best of all worlds. Yes the neck is wide, but you do get used to it after a while. I went straight from 6 to 9 and only took about a week to transition. If you go with any extended range, PLEASE go with a light speed!
@@McRocklin That’s awesome! I honestly didn’t know that. 8s are great too. A bit of an easier transition I’m sure and if you don’t care about a high A string then it’s great. Obviously you know how finicky a high string probably is anyway since you’re tight with Mr. Vai and that’s why he ended up opting for a low B on the OG 7. Hopefully it’s inspiring to you. Love your playing and videos!
All sounding awesome man! I love baritone guitars but struggle with the 28" scale and bigger frets. Do you not find the string tension a bit soft even with the 12's on? like, easy to bend notes out of tune?
Thomas- I love your channel thanks for taking the time to put it all together and keep on going- it is really really enjoyable to watch you play and speak on different subjects and funny as hell!!
I went through a low tuning phase one time, just to try something different, put 12’s on my Charvel tuned it to drop C i like a lot of modern metal but just not into learning that style,now that i’m older i’ll stick to 9’s and stay in standard tuning
First of all, I wanna hug your old Les Paul and tell her you didn’t mean that shit! Haha! Yeah, unfortunately those Gibby kids haven’t done a lot to bring those guitars into the modern age real well. Now the tones were ALL kickin’!! That B standard tuning is so much more impressive than I expected. Polychrome doesn’t hurt at all! Haha! Killer chops as always! I am curious about a 7 string guitar! Maybe snag one and use it as a give away if you don’t jive with it?
That sounds sick!! Speaking from personal experience get a 7. The 8 feels like a totally new instrument where as the 7 is much more manageable. And if you wanna go lower than B, definitely get the 27" I have 2 baritone scale vaders on order and cannot wait to receive them!
A new star is born... McDjentlin! 🤘🏼 Seriosuly though, that Leia sounds killer... 10/10 playing as always chief and can't wait for the F series PC update 🎸🔥
@McRocklin Unfortunately, none of my guitars really like anything lower than D standard, and that's a stretch. And Sabbath is my favorite band. I used to play a lot of that stuff in E or Eb, but it just didn't have the same punch.
How did you get so good.. becuase of your dad.. you realize some of the greatest modern guitar players think he was the best like zakk Wylde for example... Damn your such a great guitar player! Got any Jackson's on the wall? Also to bad there wasn't a foot switch to change those settings... 😄🤘🎸
