Why thanks, but if you touched the neck on this guitar you guys would be hurling in unison. It's razor sharp, it needs a good sanding haha.

I probably wouldn't, the last electric I've played was my neighbors uncared for sticky First Act strat copy. HORRIBLE intonation that can't be fixed because the neck is warped so I tuned it while fretted instead of open just so I could make half way decent chords.

Either way, no matter what I get I'm probably gunne be like "OMG THIS IS SO AMAZINGLY AWESOME TO PLAY!!!"

 

[Det Som Engang Var]

I use 12's in standard and drop d you pansies.

 

[JenniferGentle]

Pfft, I'm no pansy!

 

[Det Som Engang Var]

Not you Jen.

Fuck that piss! D drop C!

 

[Det Som Engang Var]

Might as well just use a 7 string then.

 

[Shpongled]

My band plays in drop C. You can do some really creative shit and make rad chords in drop tuning if you know what you're doing and don't just chug along the whole time.

 

[Det Som Engang Var]

True that. Really cool chords with drop tunings.

Is a pain in the ass in a standard tuning. But I kind of like doing it that way sometimes anyway.

Good luck with bending and vibrato.

 

[Cat5Messiah]

I seldom write anything in D drop C but like to play around with it. My songs are all written/rewritten in D but I'm thinking about doing some D drop C writing.

 

[Det Som Engang Var]

Good luck with bending and vibrato.

Heh, well it is harder to manage but I'm primarily a rythem guitarist so it doesn't matter. Thin strings just feel wrong to me and I like the thicker tone and stronger tension. Probably since I was a bassist originally.

I was just joking with you guys, I can see why most people wouldn't want to use 12's in standard.

 

[JenniferGentle]

I feel like a fag reading about your manly drop tunings. I think drop d is cool, but I usually just play in standard tuning on electric, or alter it for acoustic when doing finger picking styles and various adventures in the vein.

 

[doc_backmask]

FWIW, I have an SX bass (same company as Agile and Brice) and love it. Real easy to play. I also just picked up the Christian Olde Wolbers Jackson DK-7 and it kicks ass. And it's not too much more than the C7 Hellraiser.

 

[Calamitas1786]

I use .10 - .52 for tuning down one whole step to D. It's pretty much the perfect gauge for that tuning.

 

[JenniferGentle]

I feel the need to photograph and post pictures of my sexy guitars. Though my sexiest guitar is currently getting a fret job <3

 

[Det Som Engang Var]

These r mines. I want an Ibanez Iceman and custom Silverburst Les Paul one day though. I like the Schecter because it has the same binding as the C-7 Hellraiser, except on the neck too.

 

[JenniferGentle]

Nice! Sexy looking instruments there.

 

[Det Som Engang Var]

Post yours. <3
