8 string guitar but one octave lower

Thought G#0 was the limit...
Downtuning the Ibanez M80M to F#0, a whole octave lower than the standard F# on 8 strings guitars. It has turned into something else.
Still using D'addario NYXL0980 strings.

Guitar: Ibanez M80M Meshuggah Signature - Neural DSP Archetype Nolly
Bass: Impact Studios Avalanche + Neural DSP Parallax
Drums: GGD Modern and Massive

Now THIS is detuning done right, how can it be flubby yet clear at the same time

Maybe djent has ruined my taste in music, but this is actually kind of cool

[VirgoKing]

Damn this is lower than my credit score. So sick as always! 😂🤣

[XDrummerXKid]

I've been watching your m80m videos and I got to say that you give that godly guitar the justice it deserves, very nice!

[ethankuczynski]

Love it! Need some full songs in this tunning now.

[ZEUSINCARNATE]

That sounds colossal bro!!! Finally got my m80m and one bro you where right!!! It is a monstrosity!! Hahah love it. Haven’t touched my 7 string sense I got it lol

Did you tune the entire guitar down the octave or did you just drop the low string? Sounds really cool!

[cmguitarmusic]

Sick tone. I play 8 string too, but never tried that. Now that I think about it though, it sounds just like my 4 string p bass through a boss ds1. Could have accomplished the same thing with that setup, but it looks half as cool that way with only 4 strings hehe. I wanna build a djent stick now

I think we've reached to low. Sounds like a dubstep bassline nonetheless still a pretty sick vid you posted

[Lectwar]

Humanities last breath would like to know your location

[fettjonjr]

This rules. I mainly listen to bands with just bass so this just sounds like bass to me.

[somerandomdragon]

This is why i think 11 string guitars should exist. Eb0 standard for everyone! Or drop C#0 of course. ;)

[trndkiller]

Are you using a drop pedal? Sounds insane!

[ALEXANDERSTOEV]

Wouldn't mind 1 or 2 or 5 more vids like this 👀

[attomicrooster]

I’ll be curious to listen to this in drop E

[Kwamelion]

these riffs are getting ignorant in the best way

[Burnt_Gerbil]

Well now it’s just elephant farts. I’ll stick to normal 8-string pitch. 😆

[Bill_Saunders_Music]

What’s the point of having 8 strings, you didn’t play 5 of them!

[Tru_lie]

So.. one octave lower on an 8-string bass... Is that just normal bass?

[AngirasDarbha]

How do you even handle that low a tension?
