don't think he will ditch his Serpent Ash signature series (after all, he's more or less infected by Serpent Ash's out-of-this-world-shredding-machine to listen to power metal), just add another Serpentarius signature series into his arsenal of thin and light axes laugh.gif  laugh.gif

Bridge slanted should still be ok for in tune I guess... probably it will affect your intonation and string height though. What happened lah? I thought (to borrow from Rossie) Bent-WTF-ley set it up for you? whistling.gif

...but wei, some of the prices for LTDs in Guitar Collection are quite high. And to be honest, the construction looks comparable to mid-range MIJ Ibanez... well, looks lah, I've never tested before... biggrin.gif

They must have just fallen down and died. It's pretty amazing.

right now they only got a sig 7 string and a viper 7 string iirc

Sad thing about ESP is that their 7-string standard models aren't very prominent... heck, I couldn't even find a standard ESP 7-string on the US site...

Even Ibanez has very limited 7-string models, maybe 4-5 models in the entry-level to mid-range level and like what, 4 high end models (Universe, Apex, and 2 J-Customs)... sad.gif

So.... how was Kiko? thumbup.gif
*
Nice avatar+sig... brows.gif


It was a very entertaining clinic. His playing was really really good... clean, with feel, and some pretty scary looking 2-handed tapping going on!

EQ was like interrogating the poor guy about composition, bossa scales (err... what the...) and Kiko was like not answering the question at all.

EQ: "How to learn bossa?"
Kiko: "...<mumble><mumble><mumble>... you have to come to the Rio de Janeiro and live here for 20 years... sorry, there are no tricks."
EQ: "What the...? Oh my...! WILL SOMEBODY PLEASE TELL ME WTF TO PLAY BOSSA???"
Kiko: "HARAM! THE BOSSA IS FTW!!"

whistling.gif

...and at one part he kutuk all rock players...

Kiko: "For bossa, you have to learn all these chords... <plays all kinds of weird looking chords>.. but for the rock, you just learn one chord <shows the power chord> ...and you can play all the songs." doh.gif

...and when somebody asked him to show his "warm-up" routine... he started doing the 1234 chromatic exercises... but showing all the dynamics (loud, soft, palm-muted), suddenly got string-skipping! ...and all the while Kiko was talking to the audience. And his tempo remained consistent throughout (EQ was keeping track tongue.gif )... notworthy.gif

i've never thought of doing those chromatic exercises before this laugh.gif

...I damn jealous everytime I see pros do chromatics... cry.gif

It's one of those annoying exercises that can generate interesting debates... almost on the level of "Feel" vs "Technique".

I think that Kiko made a damn good point when he said that chromatics help you train your "muscular memory" (muscle-memory lah t!u... tongue.gif ).

But that said... chromatics is... so... ...friggin'... boring! I guess that's why he is a "musician" and not a "the rock star"... tongue.gif

the "musicians" are willing to spend an entire hour doing chromatics... ....well, and hearing their mothers complain at the same time... laugh.gif

I liked the 2nd last question :

"Er Encik Kiko, can you show us how to Temple of Hate? From the intro all the way to the SWEEPING?'
'Ape Sweeping Sweeping'?

rclxms.gif

The guy actually asked "...from the intro all the way to the SWEEPING THING."
His neighbour "...woi, apa nie SWEEPING THING!"

...the funny thing is Kiko didn't do any sweeping, just some tapping IIRC at the ending... smile.gif

so kiko is better than herman?anyways i've been browsing thru looking for the older model rg7420 n seems ibanez pull those out too damn.just left prestige models nowadays on their brochures.i wonder why they stop these models when those prestige so expensive to afford
*
Wei... cannot compare Herman to Kiko lah... Kiko's technique and all is like miles above Herman... and he doesn't hide behind alcohol! tongue.gif

The only standard RG7 now is the 7321 which is fixed bridge... and the 1527 isn't that expensive, in fact the retail price is lower than the old 7620. But overall, guess there isn't much demand for 7-strings to justify so many models. Heck, even Ibby's 6-strings are more geared towards the entry-level market than anything else... sad.gif

There was a guy who was selling a 7420 a few months back... I was tempted to get it but he said it was reserved for some friend. Good thing that I didn't get it though... the 7420 is nowhere near the 7620/1527... biggrin.gif

...you thinking of getting yet another 7-string, Beastmasta? ...get J-custom mou... icon_idea.gif

instead... why don't you slap the PAF7 into the neck, since it's more commonly used there anyway... and get a brut@l bridge pup! rclxms.gif
