  • It's nearly been a year since I did the "Proof that drop D is heavy" video so I figured it was about time to do another one. What better way to do it than with a new guitar!
    I got this Ibanez AZ2402 in Prussian Blue secondhand in Tokyo for a really good price. Insanely stoked with it. It sounds unreal and plays even better!
    I also picked up the SoldanoX from Neural DSP in their birthday sale and it is pairing super well with this guitar!
    Guitar: Ibanez AZ2402
    Tones: Neural DSP SoldanoX
    Bass: Sandberg Cali w/Neural DSP Parallax
    Drums: RS Drums Fairview

      Cheers! I'm glad you dig it! Yeah that section was pretty annoying to get down haha. The down picking is demanding enough but there are some pretty awkward changes throughout that made learning it a real pain.

    Have a question please, is the guitar easy to switch tunings? From standard to drop D for example, does it stay in tune for gigs or its a pain? Thanks and congrats again

    • @itsMEADOWS
      @itsMEADOWS  Месяц назад

      Cheers man!
      No, it has a floating bridge so you can't switch tunings unless you block that off with a tremel-no or something similar. Same as any floating bridge guitar. I just have it set in drop D and it stays there. Stays in tune super well! Really happy with how stable it is for gigs and recording! 🙂

    Imagine this riff in drop g tho.
    Would objectively be heavier. Just my thoughts.
    Badass clip either way tho.

    • @itsMEADOWS
      @itsMEADOWS  3 месяца назад

      I actually don't think it would be heavier, I think it would just be heavy in a different way. I actually did a video called "Proof that drop D is heavy" about a year ago and so many people asked for it to be dropped down lower so I then did it in F# as well to compare. The riff got lower and was heavy in that sense, but it lost so much of what made it cool and heavy in drop D in the first place, because it was written to be played higher and have more note definition amidst all the chaos. Someone put it as not being heavier necessarily, but that it became "more thunderous", which I agree with. I do think the middle Meshuggah-type section would just straight up be heavier though, that would sound sick lower. Either way, it's fun discussing this stuff! Thanks man!

    Drop D and C are still heavy, becase you can tell the notes one from another still.
