Rondo really need to update their site so it doesn't look like a 90s GeoCities page.

I curse my stupid loving left-handedness. I love my Baritone guitars and I wish I could have more than two. My next guitar is probably gonna be a 7 or 8 string Agile.

Rugoberta Munchu posted:It's just a 7 string guitar with a slightly longer scale so the B string doesn't sound so blah. I have a 30" baritone tuned B-B because I prefer the tension that the longer scale provides as well as the option of restringing it like a Bass VI. Almost anyone who gets a baritone is going to downtune it. Or, at least, that’s my bias given what I’ve seen.

Just downtune a regular 6 string, there's not many issues and you really don't ever need to go below B standard as anything else is a muddy garbled mess.

You have to do some serious EQing and mastering wizardry to get a coherent tone out of super low tuned stuff. If you just want to hold power chords for 8minutes at a time for each song then sure go for it but anything else is kinda wasted as it gets absorbed into the bass, snare, and kick frequencies.

I had a Ltd baritone for awhile, but then I realized I preferred the same tunings on a 25.5 inch scale guitar. Sounded crisper and less muddy. I generally never need to go lower than drop A. The dude that bought my baritone from me had it set up with some lighter gauge strings to drop c# and I wish I would have thought of that cause it sounded really good.

Yeah, I downtune the poo poo out of some of my guitars. The only BR00TAL extremes are:
... I mean, I guess. We play really mellow post-rock for the most part. I know this is gonna sound ridiculous, but I kinda wish that I was in more than 3 bands right now. Is that weird?

Super low tuned guitars are sweet. Basses with a bunch of strings are sweet. Normal guitars are sweet. Music is cool

Are expensive as gently caress pickups stupid guitar poo poo? Every now and again I think "hey I should replace my guitar's pickups" and then start listening to samples of Seymour Duncan and bareknuckle and stuff. Apart from really bad pickups though I can never hear anything that justifies upgrading the already good pickups. I'm beginning to think there's a lot of smoke and mirrors with pickups. "These ones sound clearer and more full maaaan." I am suspect.

Some are very overpriced but high end pickups are one of the best upgrades you can do for your sound.

Everybody swears up and down that Blackouts are soooo much better than EMGs but I honestly can't really hear the difference. I'm actually thinking of converting my EC-1000 to passives but I haven't decided which ones yet.

For high gain: good pickups are mandatory. That being said, a good pickup is like $80-$100 not $200+ each

Every now and again I think "hey I should replace my guitar's pickups" and then start listening to samples of Seymour Duncan and bareknuckle and stuff. Personally I think they’re good up to a point, I’m an enormous fan of ceramic warpigs as a high gain bridge pickup but they’re at a premium price compared to say, a Seymour Duncan distortion which does 75% as good a job for way cheaper. Metal players place far too much emphasis on them, I feel like they have far more of an effect playing clean/slightly overdriven. You can pry my Lace Dirty Heshers from my cold dead hands though.

The DiMarzio  TONE ZONE and air Norton pickups that Ibanez are using these days sound like poo poo. The old V7 and 8s they used to have were much nicer.
