OLD ELIXIR vs NEW TRIVIUM STRINGS | SATURDAY RIFFS 7
Welcome back to Saturday Riffs! This week, I’m diving into a showdown that every guitarist can relate to: old vs. new strings. 🎸 I’m putting my trusty old Elixir strings head-to-head with a fresh set of Trivium strings to see how they stack up when it comes to tone, playability, and overall vibe.
You’ll hear a fresh riff I wrote this week to really put both sets to the test.
As always, the tabs for this week’s riff are available on my Patreon for those who want to learn and play along. So whether you’re here for string comparisons, metal riffs, or some riff-writing inspiration, there’s something for you in this one.

Просмотров 57День назад
Welcome to Saturday Riffs! This week, I’m diving into something I had a ton of fun putting together: a riff-packed combo of choruses and breakdowns. If you’re into metal guitar, you’ll definitely want to stick around for these grooves. 🎸 Every Saturday, I share what I’ve been writing during the week, and this one’s all about blending big, melodic choruses with heavy, headbang-worthy breakdowns....

      Not sure if you checked it out but if you do you can hear during my runs that I control the string noise with my right and left hand , depending on what technique I'm trying to do. Keep working on it. Hit me up if you want ,with any questions
