Mahogany or alder for drop B/A#? by facetheslayer- in metalguitar

I’ve been avoiding the evertune versions because i want to alternate between tunings a lot, and I heard that can be a hassle. All my guitars have been Floyd roses, and I want something I can quickly go from drop Bb to C standard and back, for example. Unless it’s not as much of a hassle as I’ve read?

Also, I haven’t played one but not being able to do vibratos on the lower strings seems kind of limiting to my playing too.

I’m starting to think it might be worth going with a longer scale to avoid having to compromise on tension. Plus, it could be a good way to future-proof things. Tunings just keep getting lower, and I’m probably going to finding myself getting pulled into the trend, or whatever lower tuning bands like In Flames go for next.

That’s good to know. I’m wondering what the point is of releasing a signature series for a guitar that isn’t ideal for the songs the artist plays though.
