@permian11 Slipknot downtunes and they have very few songs with imaginitive guitar-work. Paul Gilbert doesn't and he's great. In example, downtuning seems to just get people stuck in the open note loop.
@superstriker00 That doesn't mean downtuning = generic blah. It means Slipknot and most popular metal bands = generic blah. Bands like Periphery and Animals as Leaders = creative win.
@LWRCftw grestches today are still good .. but the company started to branch out and make cheaper guitars so that they would sell more .. so they are still making AWSOME guitars such as country gentlemen , wight falcon but these guitars will cost you!
@ascalia If you don't like Phil talking, just go away and don't watch. You don't have to be a dick, and how do you know everybody knows all the facts about the guitar?
Awesome vid guys! If those dearmonds are reading that low though, theres probably something wrong with them? Those old dearmonds have been known to read up to 15kish! Still, cool sounding gittar!
everyone see that white firebird in the back left? how was that finished and where could i find that color? was it originally white and faded to cream?
