No one here who knows about him and or likes him would probably believe me but he works at my school now p.s. My school sucks either way but he makes it cool
That looks like some sort of Schecter 7 string. As to which one, I'm not sure. I'm not too familiar with Schecter guitars. If you already knew that and were looking for the specific model, then sorry!
@Mobenrad my guess is that that guitars discontinued but the closest i can find is an omen 7 (schecter, obviously) but i could be wrong. im an ibanez guy. i know a ton about them and almost nothing about any1 else.
hes still with korn, and i agree hes too good for them but you know what? not only does he tottally jam with them live but he looks like he truly gets into the music and im sure hes thrilled to play with them who wouldnt, anyway yea.
he is writing his own music, if he wants to play commercial numetal stuff for some nice money then he has every right... we all know he has the ability to do as he pleases
there not on hiatus first of all, second of all hes not IN korn hes only a touring guitarist, and hes good yes but just cuz korn doesnt play like this doesnt mean hes too good for them.
Very original. I would enjoy hearing a more syncopated rhythm though, with the same style of playing. It's a little to nonstop, melt-brain-esque for my ears. Very creative though... inspiring
But if i was a famous guitarist, i would want people to respect my input music wise more than my paycheck. Think how awesome it would be for you to have the title of king of metal guitar or something like that.
yeah but korn is a ticket for him to become famous. hes writing the guitar on jonathan davis'(singer of korn) solo album. and from there his career should blossom beautifully.
What I don't get is why this guy has so few viewings and those cannon fucks are in the millions and they arren't even good enough to tune this guys guitars, much less cary them.
Cool As Fuck!!! I seen him when I went to see Korn in Newcastle, Great Britain this year, he had took Munky's place, Munky had family issues at home, so he didnt tour this time round. And Shane was just fucking amazing, I was right in front of him, about half way through the gig, he done this crazy, sick guitar solo, it was great! He had/has an Ibanez Apex 2, looks great, its like, a 'brown(ish)' colour, with graffiti all over the body, looked like graffiti anyway.
alg4582: Wow, your comment sucks. Sure, watch you type on your keyboard as if what you have to say means something more than the turd currently dropping out of someone's ass and call it a comment! I vote to remove you from life. Forever.
Seriously, though... what kind of moron would say that about a winner of "Berklee's Best Guitarist" award? An idiot, that's what kind of moron would say that.
This is absolute sickness!! Yeah whats up with him and Korn....I mean seriously?? Odd pairing. I think the best we could possibly hope for out of this is a full band rendition of "Doosh" or "Centurion 32". But something tells me thats not going to happen...:(
I know this dude personally. My boyfriend and him use to jam in high school and last year they played togeather he is the shit. He is a great person also!! He is too good for korn!
he's not playing with korn....Clint Lowrey, of sevendust, dark new day is playing with korn, i just saw them last weekend it was definitely clint, and if you check out dark new days page they also state that clint is playing wit them
i cant do many things as everybody cant... but that not means that i HAVE to like them just because i cant do them, or worse that i HAVE to be able to do them just to speak my mind about it... use your brain... i just said that it's boring, not that he sucks playing: i just have to use my ears to say that, not my fingers.
Okay dont freak out just cause i spoke my mind or are you sayin that i cant speak my mind and that only you can. the only reason i said anything was cause you said it was boring not cause you said it wasnt good for listening to and relaxing. some fucking people.
hmmmmmmmm welllll uhhhhhh ohhhhhhhh I guess and i on a serious note i wasnt trying to cut you down by saying to try to play and come back i more so meant that its more interesting to play then to listen to.
Shane teaches guitar and has been for years,he sells instuctional DVDs like this online and does a lot of gigs and guitar workshops so I'd say a fair bit,and he sells his songs on the web
Yeah I was just being a wise ass anyway, neo classical sorta gets that outlandish video game vibe to at times but in a cool way. Is that a fucking 8 string??
Must be vintage because it looks to be a bolt on. He's endorsed by Carvin so it may have been free and custom built for that matter. If it's vintage, he likely bought it but I see vintage Carvin go on Ebay at reasonable prices..not that a reasonable price for Carvin is exactly "cheap". My Carvin neck rocks!
Uh, if you read his website, he doesn't own a Schecter. Thats why I said it was a Carvin, which is something that he does own. On top of that the headstock is blurry, so feel free to prove me wrong.
read beatlesluv, septicaemia. i'm assuming you're new to this whole guitar thing. i can recognize almost any guitar manufacturers instruments a mile away no matter how blurry.
I am not new to "this whole guitar thing", and I did say feel free to prove me wrong, and I have been proven wrong. I was under the impression that he didn't own a Schecter, and it seems that he did at one point. Also, the headstock layout is different from modern Schecters, so it was not immediately obvious to me that it was indeed a Schecter.
schecter was billed as 'the original california custom guitar company'. it looks like a modern headstock you'd see in any guitar center. anyways, the old headstocks were tom anderson style and had the logo in block letters like a fender.
Well considering I'm Australian and have never actually seen a Schecter in the flesh/wood in my entire life, I probably couldn't make a judgement on that.
No one here who knows about him and or likes him would probably believe me but he works at my school now p.s. My school sucks either way but he makes it cool

i agree and understand what your talking about
but playing with them is easy cash for him and that cash can go into something hes planing
the sad thing is really the music business can care less how talented you are
so him getting really big pay checks opposed to that world renowned player who hardly makes any cash
look at Shawn Lane Monster musician and player
yet he passed away with hardly any money sad to say it but almost poor (R.I.P Shawn Lane)
