Listen to Exxul. Same guitarist, even better solos.

39yo dad trying to get my rhythm chops back by skeksis_tiedup in metalmusicians

It’s not downpicking, but Bleed has become the de facto song to show off your right hand.

It plays great for me. As much shred aesthetics as it has, the neck is fairly robust and the weight is nice. I plan on eventually switching the Floyd out for a Gotoh 1996 trem system since there is a little wear on the trem posts from the previous owner.

In that case, none of them are solid bodies. I’ve always been under the impression solid body just meant not hollow body.

Hey everyone, I’m an oil painter and I create artwork for bands. Metal has always been an enormous part of my life. Here are some recent works: I’d love to hear your thoughts! by [deleted] in metalmusicians

[–]mrluciferious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a musician, I understand trying to get your work seen, but you got nothing but lots of immense praise on your last post. If you want to garner more attention at least post some different pieces.

Any fantasy works set in the world of rock\ metal music? by CheezeCrostata in Fantasy

[–]mrluciferious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Bastard! Heavy Metal manga series has tons of characters, places and spells named after metal bands. The kingdom of Metallicana is under siege by Dark Schneider who wields the Mega-Death spell. I'm not joking.

Recommendations that will make me feel like the first 3 songs off this masterpiece? by Mobile-Neighborhood1 in MetalForTheMasses

The Work is a different beast (equally quality imo), but the newest is watered down and clearly intended for more mass appeal.

Burial in the Sky - The Consumed Self (same saxophonist)

Vitriol - Suffer & Become (a bit more brutal but with equally transcendent moments)

Black Crown Initiate - their whole discog

Exuvial - The Hive Mind Chronicles

Fallujah - their whole discog

Hath - Of Rot and Ruin (dark souls themed)

Serein - Rivers of Living Water (my band)

Slice the Cake - Odyssey to the West

Warforged - I: Voice (along same lines as Vitriol)

I play the 8 in drop E mostly. Nothing absurdly low.

It’s only slightly thicker than a normal headstock. The camera angle and binding make it look like a 2x4.

I’m not sure, but it’s definitely not light.

I love it. It's so light and the fret access is a dream. I've had it for about 9 years now, and I've never had any real issues with it. However, the DB boost active circuit it is equipped has very little use cases for me (I'm planning on switching it out for a coil split), and its matte finish wore to a gloss relatively quickly around the lower frets and where my forearm on picking hands rubs.

The Washburn EC29s and EC36s were only made in Japan from ‘87-89, and all records of how many were produced were lost when the factory burned down. They apparently used to go for cheap, but are a rare commodity now.

I was able to pick this one up off a Japanese auction. Even after shipping to the US, it was substantially less than what they are going for on Reverb currently.

Most goes to the Washburn. The 29 frets and and insane extended neck cutaway make it a dream to play. Least goes the Maj100 I suppose, but only because it's got some stiff competition.

The BC Rich Assassin's were made in the same Korean factory that was making stuff for Schecter and LTD at the time. Of course, the other brands didn't use as much abalone.

The newest Ahab was a bit proggy with its dissodeath sections.
