[MrOrmus777]

Well done David, great composition and production. I really enjoyed your playing. That guitar is brilliant, your cousin obviously is a great luthier!

[x413Kx]

[TheWeeeck123]

[DeadSuspect]

@TheWeeeck123 probably two weeks I just have to re-record the audio :P lol the drummer... me actually lol well I programmed it but I used to be a drummer so I do know lil...

[TheWeeeck123]

@DeadSuspect I am pretty impressed with the drumming :) you should learn it physically and do a split screen :D

[DeadSuspect]

@TheWeeeck123 maybe I will someday :P but for now I'll just stick with the programming ;)

[TheWeeeck123]

@DeadSuspect ach the real thing is always the best man ;) I really encourage you to do that hehe, would be braw to be a pro guitarist AND a pro drummer. you'd get one hec of a reputation with that man :D (Y)

[Easyplease93]

what kind of strings do you use? I can only find ernie balls

[DeadSuspect]

@Easyplease93 Oh I just use a 7-string D'Addario 10 to 59 set and just and an 80 string gauge bass string =)

[silentstringer90]

Hey what is your tuning?

[DeadSuspect]

@silentstringer90 drop F :D

meaning the 7 string are tunes half a step up and the 8 string half a step down =)

[DeadSuspect]

@DeadSuspect

meaning the 7 strings are tuned half a step up and the 8th string half a step down =)

sorry for my writing on the previous comment lool

[silentstringer90]

@DeadSuspect awesome playin dude. hopefully ill get an 8 string soon.

[silentstringer90]

Dude your a f***ing boss! Haha about to get an 8 string myself. Was looking up songs and riffs.

[Cinebite]

Holy shit!

[Shredder69ification]

Do you give lessons?

[DeadSuspect]

@Shredder69ification yeah I do. But do you mean like video lessons?

[JordanZ0710]

what tuning do you use and is there any chance you can give me tabs for the intro before the metal part? thanks for your time. awesome job btw :P

[SegataSanshiroRule]

simply wonderful, nice work, could you tell me wich brand of guitar this is?

[DeadSuspect]

@SegataSanshiroRule It's custom made :P lol Ima try and make a video bout me showcasing the guitar and share with you how it was build, what kind of specs, etc ,)

[DeadSuspect]

@SegataSanshiroRule Thanks man!:D really appreciate it!

I'd be willing to see some more of his builds.

[Moxxiekanato]

[slutbucketism]

quite spectacular

[SkepsisGaming]

Very hard to come across originality like this, a very well done from me sir.

:)

[Iliketacos091]

HOLY CRAP. I had the volume turned up to hear that quiet intro and then BAM, I nearly jumped out of my seat when it started at 0:28. Other than that it's great lol :P

[DeadSuspect]

@Iliketacos091

lol ;) thanks man!

[Imavegetableful]

Is that guitar very heavy at all? It sounds and looks great. XD

[juggalo67666]

your welcome dude keep playing i want to be lisening

[MegaZombies115]

really good u should make an album

[DeadSuspect]

@MegaZombies115 Thanks for youe kind words =) yes I am actually trying to make an album but im now waiting 4 the 8-string to be repaired (which is almost done!) so that I can then finishing writing the other songs then record it and put it on the internet ;)

[TheDrumer1995]

@DeadSuspect Dude! Sick! I'm gonna buy this for sure when your albums out!lol

[00blaine00]

More videos and more music of this audio quality please!!!

Such a rad guitar!

[00blaine00]

0 dislikes; because its AWESOME!

Super rad guitar buy the way!

[syn5643]

Dude you are the fucking man. You rock so fucking hard! Love the change of pace, awesome rhytyms. Great voicing and major/ minor trade off. Love the intro as well.

[Ganstersextreme1]

tens de meter mais vídeos....... $_$

[DeadSuspect]

@Ganstersextreme1 E vou meu amigo ;) em breve irei meter. :D obrigado man a serio! [[[]]]]

[DeadSuspect]

thanks man!:D well I used it directly to the v-amp2 to the audio interface. For distortion I used the modern hi-gain amp, as for the cleans I used a room reverb with some delay :P Can't remember... sorry :P

Cause'll be using the v-amp2 for the amp simulation (distorion/clean) and for the effects I'm using now the Behringer Virtualizer 3d fx2000... Awesome unit, kind of like a G-major I guess. So now I'll be getting all reverbs, delays, chorus from that unit ;)

[Genoc1deP7]

@DeadSuspect What are you're custom guitar specs? I'm planning on buying a custom 8 string myself and am not sure which manufacturer to turn to!

And im curious about what that wood choice is O.o

Thanks!

Don't forget scale leangths ;)

[Siah2000]

Very cool song man! what kind of effects are you running it through?

[NebulousXIII]

Hey man, hope you don't care, probably should have asked before, but I posted your video in the extended range guitar section of the sevenstring).)org forum.

Great song, and that guitar looks and sounds amazing man, keep it up!!

[DeadSuspect]

@NebulousXIII Dude are u kidding?! I really appreciate it of you spreading my stuff :D seriously I thank you so much and I'm glad you liked it :D some more stuff will be uploaded on the internet. But since my 8-string is being repaired (almost done!) I've been messing around on my 7, plus I even changed tuning, so now I'm in the process of making new songs :) I'll keep you guys updated soon! :D

Thank you so much man! [[]]

[NebulousXIII]

@DeadSuspect

I'm glad you appreciated it man! I can't wait for the new stuff!!

Sorry to hear about your guitar man, hope it comes out good! I'm modding my 7 so I kinda know the feeling, except I don't have a back up :p lol

[negative1ons]

Amazing work.

[schecterman123]

Been on your soundclick page, had to download everything, great playing style, Long live Djent!

[DeadSuspect]

@schecterman123

Thank u so much bro! lovely agile you got on your vid :P plus nice licks you got there bro :) [[]]] long live djent that's for sure! =)

[Ganstersextreme1]

onde está a tecla para dar palmas?

[Maxpound]

This literally sounds like a catchier meshuggah mixed with fusion jazz. I adored the clean parts as much as the distortion parts.

[DeadSuspect]

@Maxpound

wow, thank you so much for those kind words :) they really mean a lot to me ;) Yeah I guess you can say is cathy :P part of me has that part when it comes to composing ;)

[drummer4hire12]

AWESOME TALENT!!!!!.....oh, and nice guitar;)

[klushh]

This is fucking good.

[wisdomvision]

Viva.

Onde posso arranjar uma dessas guitarras?

Abraço.

[DeadSuspect]

@wisdomvision

E so dizeres como queres que ela seja feita, com que madeira, pickups, restante harware, escala e faz-se um orcamento ;)

[wisdomvision]

@DeadSuspect Uma assim na onda da tua?

[wisdomvision]

@DeadSuspect Quanto fica uma igual à tua?

[i8i7]

very nice man!

[PieceOfMind56]

I dont want to sound stupid but what is the purpose of the flayed out frets and the staggered bridge? I've seen this a lot and have been wondering about it.

[RingoFreakingStarr]

@PieceOfMind56 It allows you to intonate the guitar more effectively.

[brenard23455]

Does your cousin sell these guitars? That guitar is one of the nicest guitars i have seen

[DeadSuspect]

@brenard23455

Yeah! it's totally customized to the client's taste of what he wants and doesn't, from the instrument ;)

[baldeeee]

what wood is the body made from?

[DeadSuspect]

@baldeeee

It's made of wenge and mahogany

[wisdomvision]

foda-se do caralho meu.

tambem tenho uma 8 string e curto à grande animals as leaders.

era bom se podéssemos tocar juntos uma vez que este tipo de musica em portugal está por explorar.

checka o meu video tambem, ando a compor umas cenas e estou para começar a tocá-las com um baterista :)

[mysteriousDSF]

SEXY DEEEEEEP TONE!! deep E?

[DeadSuspect]

I tuned the 8th string from F# to F (half a step down) and the other string a half step up =)

[mysteriousDSF]

@DeadSuspect I'd suggest you to tune the second string down to Bb. Power chords are quite too raspy deep down to play groovy riffs, but they are awesome to play from B and up, and it would give you a comfortable opportunity to do that. You can still play deep power chords and even darker chords (for example if you pick 0 on the F and 1 on the Bb string, or just a simple fourth like 0-0 on F and Bb string). still, if I had a 8-string, I think I'd tune the first string on deep E, and the 2nd on A.

[DeadSuspect]

@mysteriousDSF

well I did tried that but I always come back to that droped tuning that I refered before, I feel confortable with it plus I love the sound :D But thanks anyways for your kind words and advice bro! ;)

[mysteriousDSF]

@DeadSuspect it's kuw :)

[Ganstersextreme1]

what is the program that you use you?

[DeadSuspect]

@Ganstersextreme1

for audio? cubase 5

for video editing my cousin used premiere

[Ganstersextreme1]

@DeadSuspect tenks bro

[BioGeometric066]

I have to say, i think you could use i little bit more gain, but you're extremely clean in your playing.

Beautiful guitar, man.

[DeadSuspect]

@BioGeometric066

you know what I think you're right, but there's also something that I noticed that have made a huge difference during the sound at this moment which was the change of strings... I changed the string gauges specially on my 8th string I was using a bass guitar string a 70 I guess, totally weared off, Now Im using an 80, and it sounds AWESOME! believe me bro, the low end sounds better with more clarity and not to mention the bite :P

Thanks for the kind words! =)

[ThePlaguedRaven]

I write clean stuff just like that all the time. ^.^

[DeadSuspect]

@prophetninja depends on the wood you chose, how many pieces of wood, specs...

[shagfish]

Sorry ahead of time if you've already been asked this: Is that a 28"/25" neck? Also does playing scales on the multiscale take alot of getting use to? I mean since the stretch from lower pitched strings to the higher would decrease. I'm trying to figure if I wanna get an Agile 28" or mulitscale 28"/25 more like this one.

[ShamanPolish]

Whats the scale lenght's on that? From what to what?

[GabroeZombie]

what equipment did you use for sound recording? :) oh, and if you don't mind the part from 3:03 goes straight to my phone as a new ringtone :)

[DeadSuspect]

@GabroeZombie

oh no prob bro ;)I'm using the Alesis IO2express audio interface now =) I used v-amp2 for amp simulation, cubase 5, superior drummer 2.0. with the metalheads library, =)

[GabroeZombie]

@DeadSuspect I'm really new with the whole recording and sound modelling thing. Perhaps we could exchange IM's? I would appreciate some tips and tricks :) btw new ringtone kills :)

[DevilRebel1997]

Ta muito bom David :) Abraços

[teamtroduzco]

[DeadSuspect]

You can order one for yourself =) my cousin is the one that makes 'em =) we'll try and build a website for this "custom shop"
