Just Some Guy without a Mustache He was saying that he is now playing bass. Then he was just kidding. So that’s the joke. April fool’s day everyone with Nik Nocturnal.
Wouldnt that mean that he's actually loosening up and relaxing the 7 string??? Its them 6 string guitars in standard tuning that would theoretically be under pressure. Downtuning actually makes the guitars squirt and ejaculate
Nik: *bought an 8 strings Me: *"Northlane, Animals as Leaders, and Meshuggah cover coming out soon guys"* Andrew Baena: "so finally you figured out there's 8 strings out there, Nik"
@@FabulousKilljoy lol I followed through with what I said last night. Left the house a bit earlier. Just didn't do an at home workout that literally everyone is doing.
I'm sorry do I hear a song hopefully soon with this awesome riff on 2:34 or is it a an acoustic cover for a song if so WHERE that was stone cold badass riff now I want that guitar 😍
It would be cool to have lesson videos for the 8 string like you have done in the past with 6. Like transposing music and scales and modes to extended range, that'd be sick. Amazing guitar man, thanks for the awesome vids!
To me ( a Fender Stratocaster 22 frets , floating tremolo hotrails pickups ) and 2 guitars ( Ibanez Universe and a Ibanez rg2228 Floyd Rose , Guys from Korn and Tony Macalpine pick that model for play with Floyd Rose for many people is insane use tremolo on a 8 strings guitar but the Floyd Keep on tuning and you make the guitar more versatile. Sounds great .
You bastard!!! I just bought my first 7 string, 2 days later you leave me behind like I don't exist!!!! My feels! I feel... I feel.... I feel like I want that guitar!
I also bought an 8 string fairly recently, and seeing you take to it like a duck to water makes me both VERY motivated and also simultaneously demotivating.
Dude!! You have to make that clean part of the video where you just rip a beautiful clean tone melody on an 8 string into a song. Pleaseeeee. I need it. I need to have it on my playlist.
Wait, this was made on April 1st. Maybe this was an April Fools joke and that Nik didn't actually get an 8 string and that Andrew Baena just let Nik borrow one of his 8 strings for this April Fools joke.
Aristides is amazing, the best guitars I've owned/own PRS/Mayones/Jackson USA and my Aristides just has something unique going on with it. Their recent telecaster models look great too, super true to vintage teles in modern form
That's really an amazing guitar, you style of playing really goes amazingly well with an 8. That floppy 8th string remembered me that I have to buy a 9-80 set for my 8string tho.
*Leave a LIKE on the video so I can finally reach the brown note*
you better play a cover of Jukai and Origin of Escape on that thing.
HYPE
Time for some Spirtbox covers
Time for that Northlane Talking Heads cover?
The brown note is a low G on a bass guitar. 3rd fret on the E string.
Watch out Andrew Baena we got another djenty boi here
Nivan Sharma who do you think was always telling him to get an 8 string?
fuck dude beat me to it, wanted to say andrew probably talked him into it 🤣
Andrew is safe, he has a 9 string
Gotta battle my dude Baena
Nivan shama that's racist
Low tuned collabs a'comin'
inb4 "heaviest riffs : Double Drop D"
About time 😂
Yes
@@kfury1527 It'll probably be "Heaviest Riffs that I couldn't play without an 8 String" lol
@@XLRider2 Probably lol
If this is an April Fools joke, it's not funny
Because Nik is no joke when it comes to making good music.
If it had a floyd rose then I think it would be an April fool's joke.

found you again
Nik to Schecter 7 string: "You can rest easy now, the time of torment is over."
Connor McInerney he's been tuning his schecter cruelty low, now there is a beast to save it
Lmao very accurate

Krate mitchell true
We gotta see a drop Z heaviest riffs now
🤣
MrMyopinionsmatter it’s heavy
@MrMyopinionsmatter is very heavy

Incoming Monday
Nik: *bought an 8 strings
Me: *"Northlane, Animals as Leaders, and Meshuggah cover coming out soon guys"*
Andrew Baena: "so finally you figured out there's 8 strings out there, Nik"
Aha def gotta get Meshuggah out sometime
Execot northlane dont use 8 string 🤣
I legitimately thought you were gonna pull out a ukulele and say April fools
Omg

@@jasonlovesmusicreacting882 I'm not doing one so :P
@@FabulousKilljoy lol so what did you think of new Trivium and are are you a fan of Dance Gavin Dance?
I remember Matt Heafy got a guitar like that one year ago but his had a badass chameleon finish front and back. Beautiful guitars they make.
Its the brand aristedes or smthin like that
My buddy here in Iowa sent him one recently, I got to check it out before he shipped. Theyre amazing guitars.
@@xHRVSTRx you're friends with Paul?
@@bigboichris5743 Aristides.... Greatest guitars ever made
he's got a fleet of them now
Beautiful guitar. That clean section was sexy. Would like to hear some of that style in the future. Or a tutorial on the chords being used.
Rosember Morales hell yeah dude I wanna learn how to play that style. Tabs to start? It’s so sick!
Thank you!
absolutely !!
@@NikNocturnal hi man. Say pls - its F# standart tuning??I buy 8 string today - iys so hard,i need your tuning))
@@TECH-lp3edits a E or F standard or smth like that, its more common to see E standard
2:34 This sounds so good!!!
It has some Opeth vibes 💙
Glad you like it!
@@NikNocturnal Keep the great work up 💙
@@NikNocturnal what song was it man PLEASE BRO I NEED IT BRO PLEAAASEE
My God, I want a guitar like that!😍
This is cool, I've been thinking of getting an Aristides or an 8 String!
I don't even have a 7 String though!
when you get an 8 string you also get a 7 string
@@DarkPeter Literally that was my thought process going into it lmao. Ended up getting a 7 tho cus the 8 I wanted was sold out
@@chronooo. tune F# standard and youve got the best of both worlds
Get a 7 I thought that same thing when you have an 8 you have a 7 but they are completely different instruments
@@DarkPeter get a 9 have all three
Now it's time to cover polyphia - look but don't touch🔥🔥
I remembered it was April fools today and was suspicious but this is better than any joke
Imagine how he felt going to the door to get it. "Postie best not be playing an April fools on me"
Now Heaviest riffs EAEADGBE
yes
What a beautiful tuning
what string gauges for this tune?
@@firashfurqan9204 I don't know but i know Rings Of Saturn used that tuning
@@firashfurqan9204 i use my 8 string in that alot. I use 80 to 11
Even this 8string looks smaller on you than a 6string on me hahaha 😂😂😂 amazing sound here
Тебе до него ещё учиться и учиться! Бери пример с этого парня!
I'm sorry do I hear a song hopefully soon with this awesome riff on 2:34 or is it a an acoustic cover for a song if so WHERE that was stone cold badass riff now I want that guitar 😍

Hey man good to see you’re doing good in isolation
Heaviest Riffs: Double Drop D
Monday
Love that vicious low growl of an 8-string guitar. I haven’t found the courage to buy one or even try to play one yet
some OG After the Burial covers now?
It would be cool to have lesson videos for the 8 string like you have done in the past with 6. Like transposing music and scales and modes to extended range, that'd be sick. Amazing guitar man, thanks for the awesome vids!
OOO DAT SOUND THICCC.
Aha thanks fam!
Great now show Jared Dines how to play it properly
Northlane coverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Taling Headssssssssss nowwwwwwwwwwwwww
So we can finally have a house tour and see all your guitars?
Finally someone who shows how an 8 sounds clean. Most just metalcore it up
Now you can finally cover that northlane song😂
Malachi Deal you mean talking heads?
@@blender3935 yeah lol
Real happy for you Nik! I'm excited to see what else you write on that 8 string guitar!
Expected this to be an April fools joke tbh
J-S He probably just rented this guitar for the video and is all just a joke
Cryptic probably
So did I
Dood the clean tone is delightful!!!
This is the first time IMO your guitar tone has sounded super tight & wasn’t flubby in the gain structure. Congrats on the new sick rig!
Love the Matte black and all black hardware also the frets at both ends of necks angle in.
Nice! Now you can cover Northlane's Alien
Hell yes
To me ( a Fender Stratocaster 22 frets , floating tremolo hotrails pickups ) and 2 guitars ( Ibanez Universe and a Ibanez rg2228 Floyd Rose , Guys from Korn and Tony Macalpine pick that model for play with Floyd Rose for many people is insane use tremolo on a 8 strings guitar but the Floyd Keep on tuning and you make the guitar more versatile.
Sounds great .
I love how your headstock resembles your artwork. It's so evil 😈
You bastard!!! I just bought my first 7 string, 2 days later you leave me behind like I don't exist!!!! My feels! I feel... I feel.... I feel like I want that guitar!
That clean section sounded almost exactly like an acoustic guitar. Awesome.
That clean lick was sick lol
You deserve so much more recognition you’re an amazing guitarist
yo the change from the chords on 0:45 to that pentatonic lick is so smooth
2:34 that clean section.. So awesome !
Looking forward to some McChuggah, I mean, Meshuggah covers! Pretty please?
Nice. Aristides rocks
Aristides! Nice!
I also bought an 8 string fairly recently, and seeing you take to it like a duck to water makes me both VERY motivated and also simultaneously demotivating.
It sounds really good especially on clean sound.
Congratulations my man.. Always wanted u to have it
Dude!! You have to make that clean part of the video where you just rip a beautiful clean tone melody on an 8 string into a song. Pleaseeeee. I need it. I need to have it on my playlist.
Fuck yeh! U can now do dethcore 8 string Fall Out Boy covers... what a time to be alive!
I fucking love your new aristides. It's so stealthy looking
Yes! 8 string! After the Burial, Aspiration cover please!!
Wait, this was made on April 1st. Maybe this was an April Fools joke and that Nik didn't actually get an 8 string and that Andrew Baena just let Nik borrow one of his 8 strings for this April Fools joke.
How could it be Andrew's tho, it's not G R E E N
That would be an expensive April Fools joke
God, What a gorgeous piece
I got a Schecter Omen 8 yesterday, safe to say it's gunna take some getting used to
So purdy, I want itttt! Also make a metal mixing video like your structure video plzzzzz
The sounds is sooooo HUGE! damn man!
That little chordy progression thang was dope lil feller! Glad to hear more out of an 8 string than the typical 000000100100.
The exact guitar I'd get if I had a lil mo cash to lay down, awesome choice dude
This has single handedly convinced me to buy an Aristides . Getting the headless raw tone 8-string .
And a fkn Aristides too! Congratulations man!
The cleans sounds awesome 🤤
You can now make Rings of Saturn cover! Can't wait to see that!
Very nice! I wish I could afford one of these. I love the orange 070 I saw on their Instagram page.
dude that last riffing section was freaking CRISP!
Yes nik!!! Aristides is awesome!
Aristides is amazing, the best guitars I've owned/own PRS/Mayones/Jackson USA and my Aristides just has something unique going on with it. Their recent telecaster models look great too, super true to vintage teles in modern form
I've been waiting for this. Saw it on the Aristides Instagram page and I was excited lol. Luckily it's not an april fools joke...I think.
dude that clean riff you did was fucking sic!
Saw it on the Aristides page, it's a true beauty! Make the best out of it! 🌈❤🙌
“This guitar looks like a fuckin’ sports car” *smashed like button.
So pumped you've joined the family boiiii
Sounds so nice & looks nice.
I come back every now and then for that clean section, gawd daym Nik. And that groovy ass intro as well.
…..Aaaaaaaand he rips a banger, right out of the box
They make some of the dopest guitars around. Im pumped to see some 8 string content too, my ormsby hype 8 shows up tomorrow and I can’t wait!! 🤘🏿
This vid convinced me to order one! Got my 080rs in orange coming!!!
That clean sound is amazing, I thought that it must have piezo.
I wanna do the exact same setup with your knobs and headstock except no inlays, different body and hardware colors.
Finally! An 8-string! Welcome to the fold, bro!
Congrats man,aristides is one of my two favorite brands,happy you have one,it's just mindblowing
Wow I never heard of this brand. I always wanted an 8 string myself. Might check them out when this virus shit is over
They're insanely expensive though.
Yay!
That thing is gorgeous.
Get ready for some Doom and Meshuggah requests
Jared Dines: I’m Djent god
Stevie T: No I’m Djent god
**Nik Nocturnal has entered the chat**
Can't wait to see Rings of Saturn and IA covers
Congrats! You should do a Mick Gordon cover using your 8 string (maybe BFG Edition or Rip & Tear?) :
Sounds amazing
I love your guitar tone, Aaaahhh!!!! and the guitar of course :D
Nice guitar. Great sound
That's really an amazing guitar, you style of playing really goes amazingly well with an 8. That floppy 8th string remembered me that I have to buy a 9-80 set for my 8string tho.
Aristides are absolute bomb 😍
Yess
"Why? How? What?" Is it Ninga Bridge reference?
does anyone know if the riff at 2:35 is from a song?? it sounds amazing
Such a nice guitar... Looking forward to some 8 string vids now!
