That's kinda the point of endorsement deals, isn't it? The guy has a worldwide audience via his YT channel and can dial the shit out of that tone. Yeah, the guy knows how to dial in his tone for sure. Throw them together at random and you have the worthless subsubsubgenre known in idiot circles as 'djent'.Īnyway, this amp sounds pretty good but it's definitely nothing i haven't heard before.
Take three ingredients: syncopated slapping chugga jigga wugga on the 9th string, a random sweep on the high register now and again, and a very melodic and emotional section with clean vocals. Most of these guitarists are very technically proficient, well-versed in music theory and can pull off ten-finger tapping quite easily, but their phrasing is shit, their ideas are generic and they can't write music worth a damn.
I have nothing against extended range guitars but against the guys who play these things. Seriously, though, how many different riffs and distorted tones can actually work with 7 and 8-strings, especially in a Metal context? Maybe if people spent more time on the music itself instead of chasing amps and strings and worrying about who makes a better 15-string guitar with a low-J for ultra-crushing sub-sonic br00tz, they might have something worth listening to than just more jigga-jugga.AMEN to that.
