    As I watched you hack away at that neck with Gimli's axe, I heard Treebeard's voice in my head saying "Now, don't be hasty, Master Adair..."

    Artisanally excellent, but I feel like this was a seriously missed opportunity to just make a 7-string instead of the free floating "7th ring"

    • @adairguitars
      @adairguitars  2 года назад +4

      I was very tempted to do that, but I knew I wouldn’t play it much as a seven string. Had to go for long term playing for me in the end. 👍

      Thanks Tim, I try to do each build series a bit different to keep things interesting. Unfortunately not my own music. For this series it’s royalty free music that I think fits the theme. I’m keen to get stuck into the body now. 👍
