This is what I wanted to learn, 8 string on the way and ditching that flabby F# switching for a high A... So my lowest will be B (or C or maybe A... but the 7th). I want to orchestrate so that it blends and enhances what can be accomplished by a 6 string rather than sit on the lower string (might on occasion but not as a general rule)
Excellent stuff!!

[williamlewis]

Great video as always from you
I'm a bass player who doubles on guitar and I have two seven strings a Jackson custom shop Broderick and an Ibanez prestige upper cut
Two other things that you may want to show people on a seven string
One is tuning down to drop a or in your case drop B with the monster power cords that you can get
Second that when you shift you can cover three octaves on the neck within seven frets which is very cool
7 strings get a bad rap and they shouldn't
Keep the lessons coming please
