New Guitar Day!
(thelemmy.club)
Finally managed to get my hands on my dream guitar. Upgrading from a 7 to an 8 string is a bit weird but easier than a 6 to a 7. Some specs for those interested:
- Skeversen Shoggie 8
- 26-28" 5-piece pau ferro & wenge neck, flame maple fretboard
- European ash body, flame maple top wood
- Bare Knuckle Juggernaut in the Bridge, BKP Cold Sweat in the Neck
- Skervesen's "World Domination Mod" AKA coil split and "acoustic" switch
That's a lovely-looking instrument. How is it to play?
