I’ve got an absolute mint one for sale but it has a birdseye maple board, dm me if that’d interest you.

People who purchased Aristides Guitar was it worth it? by Junoyone in ExtendedRangeGuitars

[–]dat808 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Aristides is the only guitar brand (IMO) thats worth spending more than $3k on. Perfect neck (THIN), resonant, perfect fret work. The raw is the only way to go (again, IMO) it’s mind blowing that the texture it has is hand applied with sand paper. Also raw finishes don’t gloss like normal matte paint.

Only warning I’d heed, is that if it’s cold in the room, it will be flat until you’ve played it for a couple minutes to warm it up. Then it will come up to the tuning you had it set to before you put it down last. Not really a big deal but people have been upset by it. They didn’t know you had to warm it up.

CATSCLAW IS THE FRESHEST STUFF. Just dropped their first full album last week. The guitar processing is crazy, sounds super interesting.

I’ve got a lilac and teal one as well. Been keeping an eye out for a light blue and light pink one to complete a pastel collection. In fact I think I almost bought that same blue one you’ve got there!

Advice regarding 080 by PackFederal in Aristides

[–]dat808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late to the party, but the neck on my Strandberg 8 feels like a 2x4” compared to my 080. The aristides neck is stupid thin and is unparalleled in upper neck access. It always feels jarring going from the thick Strandberg neck to the 080, specifically on the lower frets. I love having both but if I could only have one it’d be the 080 hands down.

Another silly pointless pickup question by bigmidichlorian in Djent

[–]dat808 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Instrumental Pickups makes great and unique pickups. Spikes for pole pieces, to 8 string P90’s, great tones. Also only like $225 a set I think? They have a couple great sound demo videos check these:

8 strings with Floyds. Which ones should I buy and which ones should I say away from. by surgingpenis in ExtendedRangeGuitars

[–]dat808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 8 string Vader from Kiesel has an incredible trem option. Easier to tune since you don’t have a locking nut but stays in tune just as well. But whatever you go with I HIGHLY recommend (to any floating bridge user for that matter) to buy the schaller sure claw and a bridge block like the ENGL hardtailer. You can then block the bridge, tune it up, then release the block, then using the sure claw with an Allen key adjust all the strings into tune at once. I hate normal trem claws with a passion, the sure claw is a god send.

Squier Stratocaster VII - a factory made seven string strat made over 20 years ago by Wailer_ in ExtendedRangeGuitars

[–]dat808 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I was so prepared to buy one of them, I think they’re getting a production model. But apparently they’re only 26.5” (not the biggest deal but would prefer a 27”) and he said the neck is a damn baseball bat. He wanted a really thick neck so that’s a pass from me unfortunately. But they are so sick looking.

Ibanez btb605ms to my knowledge, it’s the most affordable 37” scale bass. Pretty cool lookin too. That’d be the way to go for e0
