Can’t believe we’re almost at 10k subs since Christmas you guys are amazing! RUclips is super random but you lot liking, subbing and sharing these videos is absolutely awesome so thank you all soo much!
Such a milestone! And sooo well deserved ❤️ These videos are not only funny af but also have really useful tips and amazing playing 👌 looking forward to seeing you grow!
I haven't been subscribed to you for that long, but I love you content and man, you're a really good guitarist. Keep up the good content bro 👍You definitly deserve the 10k
I want to get a single scale 8 string, use the same gauge strings for every string and tune them all the same. That way I can tell people I use every string ; D
I know this was a joke but that might actually be gnarly as fuck dude. I would rarely use them all but barring three of them in unison would sound huge.
Got my first 8-string back in July and it's been super fun to play around with. The big thing I got it for (at first) was to play Haken songs, but I find it's pretty fun to write with. Even if I just use the low string for a quick 01 breakdown and the rest like a 7-string, it's fun to have all those options available. It is weird though, as I play bass too, to have a guitar that can easily go as low as my 4-string basses
The only bad thing about Haken is the way they pronounce Haken, I mean come on it’s based on the german word Haken meaning hook but they pronounce it American style despite Haken being an English band
@@atutahi Is it based on the german word? I thought it was a made up name from a fictional character Richard Henshall came up with in high school. Besides, it's their band name, I think they can pronounce it however they want
Just found your channel about a month ago. I love these short videos. like a lot. but I'd also love to see long-form/serious content as well. You seem like a knowledgable and fun guy and I want to listen to you longer than a minute at a time haha
I just discovered your videos last week and I must say they have helped me put a smile on my face as of late. Life has been rough recently and your videos have helped me out some pep back in myself. Thanks Bud
I was expecting something, I don't know why I wasn't expecting mick gordon. Literally the only reason I want an 8 string lmao. Well, and some songs from issues
Congrats on getting 10k (soon) been here sense about 2k just gotta say man you're doing amazing, your videos are so good and with really high quality! can't wait to see how far you go
@Coloron yea it's still the same instrument Just with an extra string All the theory regarding the 6 strings stays the same It all just depends what feels right and most fun to use :) Knock yourself out and have the time of your life
That's what I was thinking about doing. Not 8 because that's too much. But 7 seems nice. I'm a mediocre bass player so I enjoy low notes more than I should. So if I improve enough and have the dedication I'll reward myself with a guitar.
Damn that is honestly the hardest choice, I’m playing an Ormsby here, similar to a strandberg but with an Aristides style neck which is best of both worlds imo
@@atutahi you got some pretty mad guitars, would love to see review/demo vids. Thinking of making my own channel so just know you’ve inspired me my friend good luck x
I've noticed you guitars are all quite unique and beautiful ones. Is there a chance you could showcase them in a video or even just post a list with their names so I could go check them out. Cheers!
I have 8 eight strings and i play mostly funk and techno with them and yes i make sure to use all the strings. Its not just doom music or djent haha i never play djent no disrespect to the genre of it tho
@@atutahi i use super thick strings my last two are an 84 and 105 gauge i use them to play bass lines i do play metal but i usually tune down the first 6 very low as well good vid tho
Cheers for the engagement bro! If you didn’t find what you’re looking for here try watching some more videos on the channel and comment to let me know how you felt about them
I won't comment on playing the BFG Division wrong... I bought my 8 string because of Batushka. Then I re-discovered Obscure Sphinx and that kind of playing is what I do with mine the most.

@@germaneggxx thanks! Haha it’s actually nuts
you deserve every single subscriber you're getting your videos are awesome
@@lucyfer_the_bat much appreciated brother
I haven't been subscribed to you for that long, but I love you content and man, you're a really good guitarist. Keep up the good content bro 👍You definitly deserve the 10k
I wanna buy an 8 string guitar sooo badly but my parents think I'll turn into a drug addict if I get too many guitars lmao
Hahaha keep buying guitars and there’s no way you’ll be able to afford drugs
@@atutahi See, this is why I subscribe to people like you, geniuses!
An 8 string will make you too STRUNG OUT
Ok I'm leaving
Wait until you hear about 9 strings
@@TheRandomSpectatorthere’s also 10 strings out there, albeit more rare
The best part is that Mick played a 9-string on the Doom 2016 soundtrack. So even more caveman
Imagine not utilising a full 8 of 9 strings… a man can dream
Didn't he only use the top 8 though? He bought the Hell raised C-9 because it was cheaper than the C-8 he wanted.
@@justinvzu01 He played some songs in D#1 (Half a step from standard tuning, but like...octave lower, lol), which is closer to 9 string than an 8, tbh
ANIMALS AS LEADERS??!? Amazing, and also love that one string riff meme haha, mick gordon kills it, and so do you! Love these videos
Love to see some woven web slipped in there
I want to get a single scale 8 string, use the same gauge strings for every string and tune them all the same. That way I can tell people I use every string ; D
Based af
I know this was a joke but that might actually be gnarly as fuck dude. I would rarely use them all but barring three of them in unison would sound huge.
I'm actually straight up gonna try this. I mess with weird tunings a lot. You easily get half the credit for making this happen.
@@FlashRayLaser i need to see this. upload a video lol
@@static7985 there's an EEEEEEEE tuning vid on Pete Cottrell's channel, its pretty sick
This is quickly becoming my new favorite channel. I laugh so hard at every video. Keep ‘em coming! 🙏🏻
Thank you! Will do
We need some mememongers to fill in after Kmac
@@kajetanmalinowski892 whatever happened to that memelord?
The algorithm strikes again! I'm still chuckling at this, good job.
Cheers mate thanks for checking out the vid!
BFG song makes everything better - and I knew where this was going XD
Haha cheers!
Omg 🤣🤣🤣 when he appeared out of nowhere, I’m dying
Spawned in lol
so much power at my screen

I think that it meaning hook in German is just a coincidence.
I can't get enough of these skits. Super underrated channel man. Keep them coming.
Thanks mate!
These videos are such great quality! Super underrated
Glad you think so! Cheers
That was super tight! Great production - respect!
Much appreciated! Thanks
Bro just took me straight into doom with that riff 😂🫶
Haha mick Gordon’s work in that game is unbelievable
Haha - lost it when u've held on the shelf and wiggeling back and forth XD
Haha glad you enjoyed it!

Working on a longer video right now!
That caveman jam made me spit my drink out. Flipping hilarious
Hahaha
good shit dude, first video ive seen of yours and def wont be the last ❤
Going from Zanarkand to this! I’ve truly enjoyed the evolution! Keep it up 😁
The journey never ends!
I was expecting to get hit with a "dangit, can't do any of that" from the student and he gets us with the trusty 035. This is a pleasant surprise.
Haha I do try to change it up now and then
that song hits different 😮💨😤
It’s honestly a work of pure genius
like an absolute caveman hahahahaha! that closing caveman riff was sick tho!
Haha caveman riffs are the best
I just discovered your videos last week and I must say they have helped me put a smile on my face as of late. Life has been rough recently and your videos have helped me out some pep back in myself. Thanks Bud
Thanks buddy welcome aboard! Glad to hear you’re enjoying the vids!
I was expecting something, I don't know why I wasn't expecting mick gordon.
Literally the only reason I want an 8 string lmao. Well, and some songs from issues
Haha to be fair issues are amazing!
Come on, Mick was the oblivious choice for the student. :D
Teach naturally might prefer AAL, like all guitar teachers do! ;-)
the grabing of the rack got me HAHAHHA
You look like you have an amazing time making these skits, keep up the great work!!
Just casually playing AAL 😳
Haha I’d never even heard of 8 string guitars before AAL
Congrats on getting 10k (soon) been here sense about 2k just gotta say man you're doing amazing, your videos are so good and with really high quality! can't wait to see how far you go
You absolute legend!
OMG I died when that track cued. Mick set the standard with that one.
Very cool video, man. Funny stuff and sick playing.
Cheers!
I absolutely love this channel so much, amazing skills and great comedy, what more do you need?
Thanks soo much! We need more POWER
This delivered exactly what I was hoping for. Thank you
Lol got that mick Gordon hitter. I was expecting bleed. 😂
Hahaha it was a toss up between the two
My God. Right in the truth balls. 😂
i was expecting something like that. Doom swag for life
1:24 awesome, that is the best part of the woven web by animals as leaders
I feel like still making this joke in 2023 is like the equivalent of asking a grown man "Why did the chicken cross the road?"
one of my friends recently got a 7 string as her first electric. she's been having so much fun with it
Whoa nice one! Starting out on 7 is awesome
@@atutahi can I do that? I mean, I really want to switch my cheap guitar to better one. Also I found one I really really like that has 7 strings :D
@Coloron yea it's still the same instrument
Just with an extra string
All the theory regarding the 6 strings stays the same
It all just depends what feels right and most fun to use :)
Knock yourself out and have the time of your life
That's what I was thinking about doing. Not 8 because that's too much. But 7 seems nice. I'm a mediocre bass player so I enjoy low notes more than I should. So if I improve enough and have the dedication I'll reward myself with a guitar.
BFG division is so sick
Agreed!
Yo that riff was gnarly though 🤣👍
Haha cheers
I am the one that clicked the like... and it crossed into the 2k range... epic
Nice!
Also note worthy, Mik Gordon recorded this one string riff with a Mayones.
Why would you tempt me like this, papa?
My bad buddy
10/10 cinematography for the shakycam
Peter Jackson couldn't have done it better
both the 8 string and the internet were invented so this could be made and shared
Man I love ya....this was amazing!
Hahaha thanks glad you enjoyed the vid!
Might honestly be satisfied playing that single string riff, kind of sick lol
Haha it is tbh
played a strandberg boden 8 and I loved how it felt but it cost a lot. Looking forward to getting either a strandberg or an aristides H/08 though
Damn that is honestly the hardest choice, I’m playing an Ormsby here, similar to a strandberg but with an Aristides style neck which is best of both worlds imo
Mate, this is so good!
Sitting here now, with orange soda out'a both me nostrils and table full of it as well.
Hahaha awesome cheers buddy glad you enjoyed the video!
Jesús Cristo! What's the song at the end?? That synth sounds fuckin sick! Please someone tell me 😮
You just had to flex that AAL there
Hahaha it’s a great lick!
sounds about right
Regular ol' caveman activities
Hit string no fret hit string 1st fret
When I see an eight-strings I think Meshuggah, when I see a seven-strings I think Korn.
That animals as leaders riff made me subscribe 🎉
thanks buddy!
Was waiting for Doom and it’s been delivered. Yes. Thank you internet
I love this so much. Also why I haven't bought a 7 or gawd forbid.. an 8 string.
yup. pretty much.
Doom music shakes my soul
waiting for my ormsby too
Nice one! What model you go for?
This is all too true.
God I love the doom sound track. Which one?.. Yes.
Agreed!
Just give me an 8 string and watch.
Haha if I could I would!
Is that the fucking Scooby doo: Mystery Incorporated theme??
Where'd you get the Michigan State sweater and are you a fan?? I went to school there :)
This is a pretty reenactment of what happened with me. ‘Cept I bust out Mick Gordon day 01
8 strings can change your creativity if you love it
To bad I can only like this video once but every time I see it I wanna hit that like button!!! That ending !!!
Demonstrating = Jam time 👌
Hehe gotta get those jams in
Time to smash out some binary!
(0 and 1's only)
Exactly what I did with mine!
What was that first demonstration riff you played thats gorgeous
Slow dancing in a burning room by John Mayer
Oh my god man I shouldn’t be laughing this hard at 7am
Hahaha
I have the same sized hands I've had since I was 12 so anything beyond 6 strings is beyond comprehension!
Haha if you can play a 6 you can play an 8, regardless of hand size
nice videos my dude
Cheers mate! Much appreciated
This reminds me how I treated my 7 string like a 4 playing only the wound strings
Tell me why that slapped so hard
Love the skits but would be cool to see some more serious vids as well.
Agreed some more serious videos in the pipeline
@@atutahi you got some pretty mad guitars, would love to see review/demo vids. Thinking of making my own channel so just know you’ve inspired me my friend good luck x
Or he becomes a djent God and hits you with the full catch 33 album from meshuggah 😵💫
Haha beast mode
When the doom music starts to play …
Exactly
I've noticed you guitars are all quite unique and beautiful ones. Is there a chance you could showcase them in a video or even just post a list with their names so I could go check them out. Cheers!
Sure thing mate I’ll put a gear video in the pipeline
yoo big props for woven web lol
Haha the real reason I own an 8 string
The fact that he just played Woven Web that easily...
Awesome videos and love the accent
Thanks!
KIWI DJENT (kiwi djent)
That is the only right answer-
Hilarious yet true 🤣
i only want to get an 8 string so i can play cod zombies easter egg songs lmao
My 7 string has a 76 gauge on it, last time I jammed on a 8 with a thinner lower F# String it felt like a acoustic. WTF am I doing...
Dude this one had me dying XD ...
Haha yuss
I have 8 eight strings and i play mostly funk and techno with them and yes i make sure to use all the strings. Its not just doom music or djent haha i never play djent no disrespect to the genre of it tho
Nice one! I find it difficult to play funk on the extended range guitars because the low strings mess up my funk strum haha
@@atutahi i use super thick strings my last two are an 84 and 105 gauge i use them to play bass lines i do play metal but i usually tune down the first 6 very low as well good vid tho
As a student who just bought an 8 string I can definitely relate
What's the name of this song 0:15 ??
What was that first progression you played 😭
Slow Dancing in a Burning Room
Whats the name of the song from 0:16 - 0:22?
Not the first time i heart that song in your videos.
Slow dancing in a burning room
Every guitar video is the same nowadays, way to be original dude
Cheers for the engagement bro! If you didn’t find what you’re looking for here try watching some more videos on the channel and comment to let me know how you felt about them
Bfg Division ftw lmao
I won't comment on playing the BFG Division wrong...
