@WyldeBass Its gorgeous. He has the riffs to match though
-
Schaffer is to rythym guitar what Steve Harris is to bass. Incredible and sooooo precise.
-
Just found out he uses heavy strings, gauged 13-56! I bow to his greatness.
-
he is the ultimate rhythm guitarist
-
Hard 2 believe jon is rythem guitar
-
@sinanrotterdam I believe its standard Eb (E flat, EbAbDbGbBbEb). Pretty much Iced Earth's regular tuning
-
Nice to see Jon is a Patriot!
-

@Cymbaline713 Yes he does and Hetfield is good too. But not even close to Jon Schaffer. Iced Earth rocks.
