I don't know if it's just that exact guitar for sale but the tone of the fretboard is a bit light, more like a rosewood. It's made in Korea also, which I can't c comment on.. but I have a RR24 made in Indonesia and it's horrible compared to the Japanese made RR24. The neck wood really throws me...

Here's the full track and lyric video! I've been pouring my heart and soul into this EP, and this first track probably the most Laiho inspired. Little laihoisms everywhere, but probably the intermission and solo are the most COB inspired. Would love it for everyone to take a listen!

Yo, been a long time since I've been on this forum .. glad to see it's still around! I made a band and EP and I will be releasing the first song "Heretic" next Friday the 26th. Alexi is probably my biggest guitar influence, especially for leads and atmosphere and such, so I figured you guys...

Sounds to me like they knew Alexi was going to pass imminently and the other members wanted to retain the rights after he was gone. Alexi probably wanted to rock out as COB until his last days but new members would cause legal issues for years to come?

It's probably as close as you can get with that gear. But nothing accurately achieves Alexi's tone except the lee jackson preamp, imo.

I kinda like Payback. It's a fun, unmistakably Laiho song that should be fun to play.

Just watched the video and you may very well be right.

The song is decent. All of the riffs have potential but it doesn't add up somehow. Glad they released it though.

Not available in US yet for Spotify.

Cocktail of painkillers, opioids, and insomnia medication? Is that supposed to mean suicide?

I don't know who's right or wrong, and honestly I don't even care.... but, I always felt it was strange and maybe inappropriate how Kim had total disregard for Alexi's new wife in her statements since Alexi's death.

Man I had a sinking feeling this might happen after seeing him in the last tour. My biggest influence. RIP.

The breaking of bones doesn't necessarily have to be the direct cause of his sloppiness. It just coincidentally started around that time. Maybe he got used to not playing every day and hasn't really kept up with practice since then. Maybe he decided looking cool and keeping the guitar lower was...

Literally every concert before Alexi broke his arm, around the time of AYDY I think, the solos were played well.
