Looking for some good 7 and/or 8 string guitar slingers. I've been enjoying Deftones, Animals as Leaders, Periphery, and a little Mushuggah (they give me ear fatigue pretty quickly, lol).

Any recommendations? :rawk:

Charlie Hunter. The man sounds like a three piece combo.

Give Intervals a spin. Instrumental jazzy heavies. Both their EPs can be found on youtube :thu:

I think I've posted this album in every 7-string thread, so I'll post it here as well. :lol:

Yeah, I'm a fanboy.

Definitely check out Textures. I love their stuff. One of the few modern metal bands that I listen to a lot.

HOLD ME.

Next one you need to get is Chimp Spanner's "All Roads Lead Here"... so badass. It's like Megaman is playing heavy jazz in space.

Keith Merrow's stuff.

Nevermore/Jeff Loomis.
