New Custom Halo 8-String Brainphreak Guitar

Uploaded from my iphone.

I said I would upload a video with the new guitar I got on my birthday during my vacation from work. Well I lagged and now its the final day of my vacation and late at night. So I recorded this quick jam of me playing "it's only medicine" a song I wrote for my band "Strangling Marilyn" and using backing drums I programmed with ezdrummer. I would have taken another take or two but I realized it was after 9pm already and I think the neighbors will complain (they have before). So forgive the sloppy clothes, my dunlaps disease, and the lousy playing... and angry ending of slop. Ill probably remove this video soon enough haha. But there is the new guitar, and the first look at me on video since my back injury.

@crazyginger011 - Not this time haha. That is a spine :) It does look sort of phallic like at low res though :) Maybe that will be on the next model hahah

Does it go back and stay in tune when using the whambar? I like what Im reading about the halo 8.

[brainphreak]

@Giftedlion - yep, it works fine with the whammy bar, I wouldnt say you can abuse it like dimebag on this one because it doesnt have the locking mechanism for the strings, but the bridge returns to the correct location to keep it in tune just fine. I always fear it will be out of tune after I play one song where i use it a lot to make some crazy sounds with dives etc, so I tune it usually after that song, but 95% of the time it is perfectly in tune even after that. Tell them brainphreak sent ya!

I dig your music man! Sic guitar, I may get the Octavia 8... How do you like that bridge on your guitar?

[brainphreak]

@Giftedlion - The bridge is pretty awesome, you can either have it locked for a fixed bridge, or let it loose and use your whammy bar! Pretty cool considering a lot of bridges for the 8 string are only fixed. I had it locked in this video, but now days I am leaving it open so I can play around with it loose since my other 8's are all fixed.
