Have a great show, bub! Don't forget to take some vids, and then upload of YouTube!

Take pictures of your Gigantic Rig as well XD

eh... I thought Tham's and one of King Shah's were bought from SLC together for like RM1800 each?

I think the overseas one was Ritz's (or the Kamikaze that King Shah let him use)... it was mentioned in a Guitar Dan Bass interview I think...

But seriously, Calvin, try asking him to show you his "Jason Becker" thesis... Me and Teko haven't seen it but it's supposed to be damn brutal...

so hwo did practice go? all well? you should take come pratice clips =D

yea thnx for the info mate!

ic ic. . . coincidence =D rust!!! see your 1527 same or not. . . i doubt lar lolz. . .

Jason Becker thesis? WTF? wat dat? serrana with dual hand appregios? Mables Fatal Fable with double the original tempo? !??!?!?!?!

I think something very much influenced by Jason Becker. Sure must got lotsa melodic sweep arpeggios!

And I really don't think our 1527s are in serial, since mine is 2007... the year of the 7 FTW!

I am a Mike Portnoy fan and it's such a shame that I don't know that he has a tribute/replica kit. Well, it's not updated in mikeportnoy.com so I guess I'm forgiven

His latest monster kit, The Albino Monster looks pretty classy, but I still prefer his Siamese Monster in Live at Budokan 2004.

yess.. you're right, rust! i stand corrected.
this man knows his facts.
listen to him for he knows the TRUTH!

..and stuff like that.

Yes, and the TRUTH lies in the low B string....

And to bring things back on topic... IIRC Metalasia are using 7-strings now. Not sure what model though, Universe most likely....

Haven't heard of them doing any gigs recently... Would love see some 7-string harmonized metal shredding... their pix from their Korean gig looked damn cool...

...Silantra, bertanya si puteri... ke manakah, perginya...

yea. . . mines like a year 2 back. . . forgotten =.=

and zomg power wei. . . must see that becker stuff =D

hahah no biggie mate xD

but yea i think the Siamese rock. . . the albino is the set in Score right?


you can see them on Youtube =D

but surprisingly they shred well. . . i mean in a sense they don go all out ganas shit. . . its very much dual melody harmonization. . . very nice. .. but the youtube comments are ballz. .. them white ppl think they all that great and we Malaysians suck lmao

Yeah, well... can't say I really enjoyed the Silantra album though. The production was quite crappy and I didn't really like their melodies. If they wanna put Malay influence, masuklah melody macam rock kapak 80-an! ...ok, ok... those 80s rock kapak melodies were probably ripped off 80s J-rock and proto-Eurometal. I mean, I was listening to Helloween's "The Dark Ride" (2000) the other day and I swear the intro guitar melody could have been from an 80s Search song played by Hilary!

But I think they'd be an awesome band to see live... the drumming sounds quite power... wonder when they're gonna release a new album, though. I read somewhere that King Shah is now hosting some racer reality show on NTV7 or something... what the...

...and good luck trying to get Tham to show you his chops, he can be very very reluctant... we think he's a devout follower of Uncle Ben's maxim: "With great power comes great responsibility"

Yeah apparently I think Tham told us that King Shah saw the price in SLC first or something and quickly called Tham up to grab the Kamikaze. As cool as the guitar might sound, Tham actually kinda dislikes it. XD (well..the neck profile anyway).

One of his coolest guitars would be his Ibanez Randy Rhoads with the Forbidden Peg...lolz! SD Invader on the bridge and Dimarzio X2n on the NECK!

Err...Score? Another one of Portnoy's side projects? I have no interest in his side projects weh...except for Liquid Tension Experiment

He's using it in the normal Dream Theater tours.

Guys... back to the 7 String topic please........
There is a perfectly good general thread for guitars for you to use also.....

It's all Vbs' fault, he started it!

Ok, ok... let's talk 7-string stuff now... like... err... ...mmm... 7-STRINGS ROXXORZ FTW!!!!

...but seriously... erm, dunno if I've posted this before, but for lack of any other 7-string discussion material: EMGs don't fit into RG7s because those basket EMG techs actually house the pups in bass pickup casings... so some woodwork is required to make it fit... ...err, this sounds damn familiar, I probably posted it in the pickups thread... lolz...

ok, here's another shot... val's looking for a whammy-bar for his K-7. According to Jemsite, his bridge is a "LoPro "Double Edge" 7 with U-bar". Ok, I know that EdgePro7 and Edge7 Low Pro use the same whammy-bar- see http://www.jemsite.com/jem/trems.htm.

Anyone know if the "LoPro "Double Edge" 7 with U-bar" uses the same whammy-bar? And more importantly... where to get???

Now hopefully blacktrix won't shut us down!

lolz? giler power the guitar. . . whats the forbidden peg?

i nvr liked esp. . . ,ayb cause over priced here lar. . . they are good but not what i want

Score lar. . . the anniversary DT DVD/CD. . . with the philharmonic 1. . .


k k sorry boss!!

i think you posted d xD

and ermm you can get it off Bentley right? i'm sure they have em replacement stuff. . . all th same if i not mistaken. . . you ask bent to order the U-Bar AND the normal bar. . . =D

aiyaa... no need make so obvious I double post lar... I only trying to steer the topic back to 7 string so Mr Blacktrix won't shut us down! shhh shhh!!!

and get from Bentley? sure they won't rip us off? maybe say U-bar got to special order from US, wait until October maybe, pay RM300 shipping charge?

i don't think so. . . it depends. . . if they ask did you buy the guitar from them say YES! lolz. . . say last time or something lar. . .

if they think you bought from them then they charge you decent 1. . .xD

the normal bar should be standard price. . . only the U-Bar. . . not sure. . .
