I heavily prefer tuning a 6 string to standard over drop, besides that drop c on a 6 string has a good sound to it and needs to happen sometimes. If I'm playing my 7 or 8 string though, that thing is drop tuned 98% of the time cuz...that's the point right?? Having standard and drop all at once
@@kirehj_sm idk someone liked my comment actually so apparently somebody cared. In fact you cared enough to let me know that allegedly nobody cares. Judging from your comment, you didn't even actually read mine either.
Paula's face at 0:38 is pure gold, Bradley's attempted sweeps devolving into just 1-0-1 goodness, Nik's appropriate disgust at it being in standard. Every reaction is so perfect hah.
3:08 this is why I don't touch a 9-string.. Bradley wants to shred and sweep but the force behind the guitar always drives his fingers downwards to a 0-1-0 madness
Love how rudy would probably be the first to absolutely rinse a 9 string player yet he came up with some solid riffs and didn't just low note it up, respect 🤘
A. 9 String guitar video in 9 minutes. Clever ;) B. I got to play the same Ibanez model at my local store for the first time few days ago!! It was fun!
It's crazy, the most musical moments from musician mansion is behind the scenes or side content ahah. Great way for discovering you all talented persons tho, really appriciate Jared's idea
4:09 laser sounds! i think at that point all guitar equipment just high pass the fundamental so hard (maybe even it's octave) and it just becomes a wall of noise
Ive got that exact 9 sting with bare knuckles in it. I think it can be pretty fun to play. Every single fret has come loose on the high string side so it literally demands you to play the low C#
The amount of distortion sometimes sounds like guitar pro RSE. This is funny as hell and all these guitarists are great in their own right. Love the content, bro.
Amazing reactions! I honestly have no idea how Drewsif was able to play what he did o.o Also curious as to what they would of thought if it was an H/09
I have an Ibanez RGMS8 multi-scale 8 string, and you absolutely cannot attack it in any kind of aggressive way, especially on the lower strings. Power chords on the lower strings are also pretty much a no-no. I'm lucky I have creepy long fingers (that's what I've been told, I am 6'4") so it's not really that difficult for me to reach anything.
Id have so much fun with a 9 string. I like the gnarly and almost inaudible lowest string combined with the contrast of higher notes. Im surprised most people just roasted it instead of getting creative :p
you gotta admit for most people 9 strings is really jarring considering a good chunk of them only play 6-7 strings with the odd 8 string player, and not being able to gravitate towards the strings you use most (and considering that some people can just be overwhelmed by two many options) i think it’s perfectly reasonable for them to be just roasting it
I enjoyed this a lot more than I expected, cheers all! Btw I would never have any idea what the hell to do with a guitar like that, I’ll just stick to bass I guess lol
I'd have asked for a clean tone so I could get oriented on what I was actually playing. That low string is tuned so low it just sounds like mud with distortion and the gain up to 11. It probably has a pretty nice tone on clean.
How about adding a high A string to 9-string guitar instead of going low low? Notice that 1) all the bridge intonations must be then redefined, 2) scale length (I assume it is very long) causes significant problems for high notes. String thickness has to be appr. 0.000001
I want a 9 string or at least 7 string so bad. I would have no problem adapting to it. Apparently just playing shred metal makes you incapable of evolving your playing routine.
My 10 strings in a custom tuning - ADADADF(#)ADF(#) for basically super big open D tunings, I have a whale of a time with it when it gets picked up but these days I largely play a 4 string Hurdy Gurdy - how times change haha

3:40 I love how Nik's only concern is ''awh it's standard, wtf''
Man’s like “if it ain’t drop, it ain’t enough” 😂
i also like how he could even tell what hes playing XD
Solo drops
hold up, im a famous guitarist?
In my heart you are
Only because Arab Dad doesn’t want to play. #TeamSmoozie
Fake modesty is cringe
No Rudy. Now go clean up your room.
No.
love that nick was the only one that had any idea what he was doing 😂 his new album is all in 9 string tuning he was in his element
3:41 tho 😂
That was until he realised it's in standard. The corekid mind cannot comprehend standard tuning
@@dahliasmiles7122somehow I didn't even thought that anyone will tune 9 string to standard
@@dahliasmiles7122Yeah, when I get anything in standard tuning it's like I've never played guitar before.
Rudy still did pretty good.

that moment completely solidified my love for paula lmao
Nik saying "Oh standard tuning..." killed me
it is weird its not in a dropped tuning; its not like you are going to be running melodic scales that low especially with that tone.
LOL, drewsif still in century egg recovery...
Was looking for that
Of course Nik was the only one who made it sound somewhat coherent lol.
Some “cheated” by shredding higher up
Jimena did a cool tapping part too
Gotta love the Meshuggah - Obsidian reference at 4:59 💎🔥
legitimately a sick track hahaha
at first i thought he was referencing mind’s mirrors but yeah it’s definitely obsidian
@@sukkaesooopspoun9466 you can tell by the sneaky bend on the first fret
@@ItsDrewsif and also the fact that it’s tuned to an audible pitch (debatable)
Damn I didn't even realize it. Now I feel terrible cause I'm a big Shuggah fan.
I love how Nik was able to tell that the guitar was in standard tuning as if the bottom note is even discernible
Good God, Drewsif has created a damn masterpiece
The feedback he achieved with that low C# is ridiculous
@@ericwright1985 like someone sliding a razor across a crowbar, slowly - pretty nice

As much as he's joking... It does kinda sounds like Mind's Mirror
@@Gatapotata It's Obsidian, final track on Nothing.
Sophie and Nik playing Smoke on The Water back to back was hiliarious

I want one so bad 😭
A mansion?

3:00 that run was low key fire
The content from this whole collab has been 🔥 so far.
Jimena actually had an interesting take on playing it that didn't resort to thalling lol
Love how Nik went down the right route and went THALL with it
This video just sums up the first week of me going from a 6 sting to an 8 string guitar.
that guitar tone is wild
I love it and hate it simultaneously
@@Return2TheLivingSame
gain, unlimited gainnnnnnn
Hmmm. Wild...
I would have used the word "ass". 🤣
@@Easy_Skanking what do you think is a good guitar tone amigo
A. 9 String guitar video in 9 minutes. Clever ;)
B. I got to play the same Ibanez model at my local store for the first time few days ago!! It was fun!
Drewsif has access to such a woefully dark part of his own psyche 💀
This was fun. Reminds me of nearly every time a guitarist plays my bass.
Actually true lol
Andrew’s composing the opening notes to an orchestral piece about time. Genius.
Drewsif playing just single notes over and over is comedy gold
Baena is milking musician mansion better than Jared Dines himself lol
Yep, making contet about *music*
I've enjoyed baenas MM vids way more than the actual thing. I'm here for music!
And he should. It’s good content.
I honestly don't think milking is the right word cause usually when it's used, the outcome tends to be tiresome, bad or worse but not his vids.
@@ludens1472 I definitely didn't mean to use it in a bad way, since English is not my mother tongue I apologize for misunderstanding.

Thank you Nik, for coming through as THE ONE who riffs hard af 🔥🔥
4:09 laser sounds!
i think at that point all guitar equipment just high pass the fundamental so hard (maybe even it's octave) and it just becomes a wall of noise
Congratulations to your Musicians Mansion!
I’m currently working on 8 string!
And Thanks for this 9 string video!
🙏🤘🥲🫂🥲👍🙌
Nik just casually making the next vildhjarta album at 3:33
Fun fact, even with the 9 string in standard tuning, you're STILL not playing lower than Black Tongue.
(At least on Nadir.)
I need Kmac at the next retreat, i would love to see him work with other creators.
This just made me fully appreciate how masterfully clean the riff is for Neo Seoul.
Rudy cracks me up, his no filter goes great with his no nonsense personality, it's so funny
4:08 unironically kind of a sick sound
7:50 Nik gets it
Drewsif is a whole ass mood. I'm glad to be from Maryland knowing this treasure resides here.
Awww bradlys response was so wholesome & genuine in his accent I just do that
Nik: : "Aaagh Standard wtf"
Exactly my reaction everytime i took random guitars at random places lol
Ive got that exact 9 sting with bare knuckles in it. I think it can be pretty fun to play. Every single fret has come loose on the high string side so it literally demands you to play the low C#
I love everyone being confused except Nik and he still thought it was stupid.
I noticed a long enough moment where he was, clearly.
3:59 cool space invaders sounds
Nik going "oh it's standard" lol
1:42 is gold
The amount of distortion sometimes sounds like guitar pro RSE. This is funny as hell and all these guitarists are great in their own right. Love the content, bro.
i just got myself an RG9PB about a week ago
its like learning a new instrument
Nik: Breakdowns
Drewsif: Breaks down
Loving these videos!!
i love how paula is a lefty too, the most im ever doing is an 8 string but since i have a helix i only use my 7 with 9-80 gauge strings
Classic at 3:00 . Crazy shredding
"What is the tuning?"
Paula's face in this thumbnail is something that belongs to a museum!
I respect Nick actually trying to play it as its supposed to.
Drewsif shredding like that was super unexpected
Funniest thing about this is youtube cc not being able to decide if Drewsif's Meshuggah song is music, applause, or foreign.
I love paula’s reaction,just priceless❤️
Amazing reactions! I honestly have no idea how Drewsif was able to play what he did o.o Also curious as to what they would of thought if it was an H/09
Drewsif is a whole mood
1:00 You don't even hear a well-defined note at the first ~0-1-2 fret but this: "X-X-X-X". Pick attack + highgain amp/plugin + undefined pitch.
Andrew, I’ve been watching you since 2013 and when you put together galactic Pegasus to see you still killing it
Need some of this content in the show. Excellent video
Nick (with disgust): "Oh, it's in standard, what the fu...?"
😂
Andrew should’ve been in Graystone.
5:40 felt like a Sunn O show
The dude that just plays the high e string 🤣
Lol I felt lost playing a 7 string. Couldn't imagine how a 9 string feels.
Nik's like "it's like I'm holding a tree" hahaha you are holding a branch😂
I love heavy crunchy riffs like everyone else but more doesn’t always mean better.
Like obviously Bradley and Nick are gonna kill it!

“0” who???

Can smb help me pls?😂
0:37
Paula be like:
*"I'm taking this bad boy home!"*
Drewsif was actually playing Obsidian by Meshuggah I believe 💀
Understanding the low interval limit in person.
It shows that if some are not doing a cover or scales run rhythm stuff falls apart. Make it groove!
I want a 9 string or at least 7 string so bad. I would have no problem adapting to it. Apparently just playing shred metal makes you incapable of evolving your playing routine.
