Whale fart king.
With a maple board.
Got it yesterday. RG2228MWH Prestige...these are brand new.
I need to tweak the intonation a bit, but this thing is really nice. I'm not using it for chugs so far, just piano style clean tapping, and I really love it. I have a chapman stick, but the tuning/string orientation never really vibed with me, and I like tapping on this better.
Thinking about getting another one for metal, and removing all the strings except for the low F#, and all the frets but the first 4.

Same interval relationship.
F#/B/E/A/D/G/B/E
Though, the chord piano tapping thing is generally done (by Tosin and others) in EAEADGBE. I may set it up that way. Haven't decided yet.

Ok, thanks. F#? Fuck, do the low frequencies make you want to crap your pants? Seems like that would move your inards around.

It's seriously like the lower register of a piano, big, tight, harmonically rich. :love:

I bet it sounds killer. The lowest octave on a piano is my favorite. I love hearing the freqs' warble.

Lol.
The N7 is small.
The Ibby is HUGE, but not as big as the M8M I babysat for a bit. Nor is it as big as the Devy.

Yeah, I'm just playing. I figured the N7 was pretty small, given my limited experience with the N24. I do remember how big the Devy was. I hadn't seen that one in any of your clips for a while. I mean I knew you still HAD it, because you'd probably sooner get rid of your car than that thing.
I actually don't have it at the moment...it's back at Peavey. I'll have it again soon.

I know you're actually using all of them, Loop, but I don't get people that get an 8, then use only the 3 low strings

Nice. Never played a 7, much less an 8, like Ibanez recently got an RG2550Z. Congrats
