Rondo Agile 30" 8 string custom Interceptor Clean tones

[pearljaime2]

Where did you find strings that long? Finding a high E for it wasn't easy, right?

@pearljaime2 There's a guy by the name of Gary Goodman that has a couple companies that help with this. garrygoodman[dot]com/octave4pl­us[dot]com[dot]htm Octave4Plus and Second String Music. Check them out... super awesome people, you can order each string custom length. Super quality too!

[pearljaime2]

@woocifer Thanks a bunch.

Nice playing and clean tone. What gauge is your F# at 30"? .080? Can you tune it to E without getting buzz?

[woocifer]

@EtherealEntity6 I'm not quite sure what the string gauge was because it was what it came with strung. I recently put on some .70s and they've done the trick. Tuning the F# up to an E would probably warp the living hell out of my neck haha I wouldn't want to try it...

[EtherealEntity6]

@woocifer

Haha thanks :) I actually meant down to drop E - the tuning I plan to use at 30". Wondered what gauge this was because it sounds a lot tighter and better than most I have seen.

[HighVoltagexx]

@woocifer I think he meant down two steps to an E, Tosin Abasi style.

@woocifer I think he means tuning the F# down a whole step to E not up, and yes you can, the band Meshuggah tunes down to E with an 8 string on some songs. Check out their album Obzen to hear what I mean,

@woocifer oh yea how has your custom agile interceptor done for you, I noticed that your videos of it was posted a while ago so I was wandering how the guitar has handled in the long run, also what are the specs on yours ?

[BigEthan391]

dude that sounds good I like hearing 8 strings played clean.

[woocifer]

@BigEthan391 Yeah man it's really full bodied... too bad I don't know how to play anything properly so it sounds even better...hahaha

[proggod876]

dude, where did you find that on rondo music

i cant find one with a regular headstock? (i dont like the reversed)

tell me the name please :)

[woocifer]

@proggod876 It's actually a custom model. I just chose which headstock I wanted when I got it made and bam they put it on. It really should be in the custom order form about Reverse and Normal Headstock

[proggod876]

@woocifer is the custom shop on the rondo music site?

[TheGospelGuitarist]

You could write and play the bass parts and the guitar parts multainiously! Actually, sounds nice.

[OndskapensHersker]

That low sting sounds REALLY awesome clean!

you should experiment more with your Gearbox, i used like 3 months on only experimenting and now it sounds (at least in my opinion) fucking amazing!

[woocifer]

@OndskapensHersker I wish I had the time dude... plus the setup here is not the best... when I get my own place with my own space(rhyming is stupid) then I will set stuff up nice and accessible.
