      Ola, PLEASE offer this guitar in a 7 string. I love my Ibanez M80M tone-wise, but I don't like the neck width at all with 8 strings. I want to go to a 7 string with roughly the same scale length as the M80M. If you offer this guitar in a 7 string, I promise to buy one. I want to keep my low F#, but with a longer scale 7 string. Plus, I'd love to have it to use on the new Inferion album and upcoming South American tour.

    I’ve always had a hard time understanding the Chaosphere tone; is it scooped? Or does it have a lot of mids? It’s honestly so hard to tell because there are ZERO sustained notes or chords on the album. The ENTIRE album. The pre-outro riff from NMCC you played has the longest notes on the whole record!

    • @OlaEnglund
      @OlaEnglund  2 года назад +261

      Also the bass is constant with the guitar almost all the time. So it’s like one entity rather than 2 guitars and a bass.

    • @BenEller
      @BenEller 2 года назад +134

      @@OlaEnglund absolutely. I’m trying to remember if there’s any parts where it’s just guitars playing without bass… I think the ending of Sane might be the only part, but the guitars are swapping off left and right in stereo, so it’s hard to even get a clear image of the tone!
