One of the best-sounding 8strings on the market, nothing more to desire

This is awesome, I bought this guitar probably about when this video was made, but I've been loving it and decided to see what other people thought about it. This video made me love the instrument even more, and your riffs are awesome. Deftones is my favorite band and it's the main reason I decided to buy this beast, it's my first guitar that isn't 6 string. It's so much fun! But I learned even more about it today, thanks for the fantastic video. And thank you Stephen Carpenter for creating my favorite sounds in the world :)

that fucking riff in the beginning where you go from open F# to open chord, then D to B power chord with palm mutes is just AWESOME.

combined with the drums its sounds so heavy and rad 😤😤😤

I am an old 80s metal head (still young at 51), just bought the 607b tele model and I must say...the finish is crazy. I have owned Jackson American made Sl-2 and customs my whole life, but these guitars at these prices... They are equal to or better than those. Next will either be the purple 607 or that great video. I actually like it when someone lets you hear the guitar and does a good job of letting the guitar speak for herself....

Been seeing this sit in your room for awhile, waiting for this review and you did not dissapoint!

[guiltyguitarist]

Thank you for putting this in my sights. I just got ky first seven string and have been getting into music that uses an 8 string that I’ve been wanting to play but couldn’t because I didn’t own a seven or an 8. I’m in love with the way this sounds. It’s exactly the kind of tone profile I’ve been looking to achieve. Thank you for your knowledge on some of this stuff

[MangoOverload]

YASS! Sick riffs, sick tones, you're one of the best going right now man, you're making me awful tempted to get one for myself after being so impressed with the purple Stef 7

[adolfovaldez]

im here for the intro, that riff, awesome man

[kde]

Came for the guitar, stayed for the riffs. Gorgeous!

I own this axe and I love it. I’m not really a 8 string player, but this thing is so fun to play around on. The pickups are great and it growls like crazy.

[peterpwn]

such a well made review, thank you for your work, it was just what i needed, have a nice day :)

[vicente]

great video! the fishmans sound really articulate and have a lot of chord clarity!

[uroborosfirst]

Love anything video: the guitar, demo songs, sounds, tones, vibe! Thank you!!!

[scotttascarella]

OMG! This is amazing.!!Tone and the jams!!! This is the kind of stuff that inspires me. I have the green sc-20 and the purple 7

[TheAdventuresOfDnB]

You just sold me this guitar with your thick af riffs my dude

[metaljonesy]

Can't deny how sick that thing looks. ESP/LTD really are a benchmark with design and style

[Juurgen]

Man, you so fokin good at riff All the best bro!

[rflag]

Somone pleaaaase tell me how to play the three chords starting at 0:23

[artvsevishniy]

Man, what a fantastic review! Usually such videos are either hit or miss but I really enjoyed watching yours. Very well structured and catching. I'm huge fan of Deftones (and Stef) and played most of my life on the SC607b, so I completely understand your passion about these guitars and can literally feel your joy playing this beast. Since this model was released in red sparkle, I've been wanting to have it in my arsenal, so hopefully it'll happen rather sooner than later.
Last but not least and the most outstanding thing of this review is your riffs! Holy cow! They sound Defton-ish but with your obvious personal touch. In addition to this, guitar (as well as overall) tone is damn good. Looking forward to more reviews from ya!
P.S. I'd greatly appreciate if you could tell more about your bass in this video (tuning, tone, etc.) because I'm a bit puzzled how to track bass for an 8string guitar.
