Lmao very accurate

[@k33pstrumming39]

Wouldnt that mean that he's actually loosening up and relaxing the 7 string??? Its them 6 string guitars in standard tuning that would theoretically be under pressure. Downtuning actually makes the guitars squirt and ejaculate

To me ( a Fender Stratocaster 22 frets , floating tremolo hotrails pickups ) and 2 guitars ( Ibanez Universe and a Ibanez rg2228 Floyd Rose , Guys from Korn and Tony Macalpine pick that model for play with Floyd Rose for many people is insane use tremolo on a 8 strings guitar but the Floyd Keep on tuning and you make the guitar more versatile.
