[@ggaarreenn]

once i got to the solo lead clips i was quite impressed by your lead playing. I know thats not your main style but the tapping was beautiful and perfectly in time. I’m impressed!

[@TheBanana93]

second that man I was impressed he has clearly been practising!

[@thatonetyeguy2330]

Been playing 5 years and I still have trouble with lead playing (forget writing a solo) it requires a whole different discipline of skills compared to rhythm, riffs and chords. It's easy enough to write good riffs. Good leads are a mystery to me. I know a lot of minor/major and all the modes in different 3 note per string scale shapes, but knowing the scales.. even knowing the theory only goes so far. Writing good melodies is something you can only do with experience. Melodies and leads are also kind of a mystery to music theorist.

[@CZitoMusic]

Such a sick guitar. The clarity is insane for a 9 string. Other 9 strings I hear usually sound muddy because of how low it is. But this sounds so clear!

[@KadeKalka]

Omg this thing sounds insane! I'm a huge fan of the two output jacks, that's such a cool idea.

[@alexj0126]

This is probably my favorite demo mix I have heard you do. The clean tapping section at the beginning and end where fantastic and where a great contrast to chugs.

[@stephen6488]

Bro that's my favorite demo you've done so far,hits right in the feels

[@FuzzImp]

There’s only one absolute unit and it’s my man’s Andrew Baena

[@d3th_2_all]

The demo mix sold me. This guitar is officially god tier. The double output jack is cool af as well

[@ZenonShandro]

A total beast. Sounds amazing and really makes me think about the benefits of these new materials and construction styles. Keep up the good work being a beacon and driving force bringing us these awesome demonstrations, Andrew.

[@davids2629]

Make the demo a song or instrumental please. I wanna add it to my Spotify playlist.

[@BaenaCarcosa]

The song is called MU, you can find it on my 2019 solo album on all streaming platforms (just sounds a bit diff since it was recorded a few years ago)

[@davids2629]

@@BaenaCarcosa Got it on my playlist, thanks man.

[@Taquitos95]

That demo riff is so sweet! HUGE After The Burial vibes! This is so sweet!

[@SGDrummer7]

2:20 part sounded super After The Burial-ish to me

[@BaenaCarcosa]

This song was def me doing my best ATB impersonation haha

[@RanterInShades]

That was the coolest solo I've ever seen you play.

[@TheCadegoodspeed45]

Niiiiice! Big boy baena crushing the erg demo game once again! They need to give you a green one! 👊💚

[@hevy_metal]

Sounds haunting on the clean sound! Great sounds =)

[@xMIRAKx]

As amazing as it sounds, I think I will stick to 8 strings. I was partial to the red raw finish, but now I'm convinced. Red body and black freeboard are the way to go for my next Aristedes order.

[@stevenhammerle]

You have some of the best 9 string tone I've ever heard! 👌

[@existentialopal721]

1:22 sounds kinda like something I’d hear in a song by Jeff hughell… specifically this one solo from one of his songs known as brief lapse of clarity (I believe)

[@Treggify]

BAENA WITH THE TAPPING?! So cool dude!

[@materedai4158]

Wasn't ready for that tappy intro but I'm amazed

[@jasonday8334]

That’s a dope guitar, fire riffs🤘🔥

[@lucascerbasi4518]

The low end on that sounds soooo good

[@zakmiller1224]

That was one beautiful ass mix my guy 🔥

[@dontcallmemarty2177]

Completely SHREDS @ 6:15!

[@nj1255]

With it being a 9-string they could easily have made it a 31" on the bass side for better string tension. 9-string guitars are already deep into bass territory so it would be logical to have the same scale length as a short-scale bass.

[@TheGunmac10]

It still has to be a 9 string guitar not a 4 string bass. I do agree more scale lenght would be good but I play 10s and some people play 9 gauge strings or even 8s. If you make fanfret reasonable with 31 inch bass you would have 28 inch trebble and that could be too much for some people in terms of tension

[@nj1255]

@@TheGunmac10 The classical baritone scale length for 6-string guitar is 30" so I don't see 31" being too big of a stretch, especially for 9- and 10-string guitars. I've only ever played one eight string guitar, a Ibanez M80 which has a 29.5"(?) scale length, and it still feels a bit slack on the low F# even with a 9-80 set. I'm a bassist though, so I'm used to high string tension 😄 My friend who owns the M80 just received his Per Nilsson signature Strandberg so I'm hoping that I'll get to play that one soon as well 😀

[@davidpeebles1858]

I've got an H/08 and this video made me want to get an H/09.

[@williampeckham9838]

That's is an amazing instrument. Can't believe it sounds so good without wood.

[@julianulrichdrums2345]

Looks a bit like a strandberg. Awesome sound🔥

[@user-xs4rm1ti8f]

This is sick dude

[@Subbieman650]

That windbreaker though!

[@eitanmetcalf6198]

Nicely done man. Any chance of you using a 9-string now for future material?

[@BaenaCarcosa]

I've done a few 9 string songs over the years so probably!

[@ZXChrisR14]

Bro so glad you played MU. Love that song!!!

[@belugaprincessofficial]

That clean riff at 0:58 and 2:34 was one of the most beautiful riffs I've ever heard, what an insane guitar, unfortunately it's *slightly* out of my budget

[@DMNDBEATZ]

Mother of pearl inlays ? Great playing and video !

[@sirbonple]

god now i need a 9 string

[@martyjaay]

I owned an h/06 and sold it for the reasons mentioned. Killer guitar but just didn't think the hardware was quite there yet. I adore my 060rs however, i can restring and play a gig in 5 mins haha

[@x.eternal.x9150]

What a beast!!

[@sp00g37]

The demo really made me think of Abandoned By Bears

[@imagesandwords4327]

The lowest string sounded beautiful on clean channel. When distortion kicked in, the low end fell away and I could no longer hear anything very low at all.

[@harveymckinlay913]

You feeling okay bro? I noticed you used nearly all the strings? I'm here if you need to talk..... Hahahaha na fukn love it mate 🤘

[@doodlebooble8702]

The tone fucks! What plugin did you use for rhythm tone?

[@shitfacetrololo]

We need an A Wolf Amongst Ravens cover with this guitar

[@existentialopal721]

1:25 damn

[@existentialopal721]

2:12 c# major breakdown I like

[@iw8623]

Does anyone have some basic setup tips to make the best of the low end? I have a tam10, Is a compressor the missing key to get the low end to stick out clean? And then compressor and noise gate for distortion?

[@NeoGarlick]

i really want to know how it feels play a guitar like that

[@thethoughtsexpansionpodcas9562]

clean thall beginning

[@vancemarini2479]

really got the bluetooth guitar🤩🤩

[@bastian4260]

If richlite is made out of paper and resin, why shouldn't it be wood? Paper's made out of wood

[@BaenaCarcosa]

Saw this comment coming haha

[@n7warlock22]

Richlite doesn't contract like wood tho when it's dry so don't have to worry about those pesky frets sprouting lol

[@bastian4260]

@@n7warlock22 I know, but it's technically still 70% wood

[@athmaid]

By that logic I must be a banana then, I share 60% of my genome with those after all! Man, paper is paper, wood is wood. They share some characteristics in terms of chemical composition obviously but that's about it. Wood fibers run mostly parallel, in paper it's all over the place, which makes getting it that thin possible. Composite materials like richlite are way more stable when it comes to thermal expansion/contraction. Any carpenter can tell you how much wood moves in comparison even when roasted or torrefied

[@finnancahill2644]

@@bastian4260 you are 70% water but it’s not like I go around drinking humans out of bottles

[@9hk38f]

How do you reach, around a neck like this?

[@neoconnor4395]

Aristides vs Strandberg: go!

[@masonsmall6474]

What tuning is this?

[@pewpiter]

So was Pascal saying the new tuning peg will be able to just swap out for an existing bridge, or at least that's their plan? I LOVE my H/08 and it's the biggest pain point for me as well. Hate having to strip part of the winding just to fit the 8th string in. Everything else is everything I wanted it to be and more.

[@BaenaCarcosa]

Yeah that’s the plan, the bridge stays the same but you just swap out the “tuning pegs” and locking saddle, if that makes sense

[@pewpiter]

@@BaenaCarcosa can't wait Aristides is always on it.
