Would love to see your approach to chords and tapping in riffs
Yeah, the tapping at 9:24 is really sick !
YES PLEASE
Just seeing this video but I agree with all of these people! Please make🤟
Can someone tell me what song/artist is that from?
Listening and learning Monuments songs may also help to get an idea of that "low tuned guitar with an aditional high string"
My e high e string broke recently, and I don't even care, lol!
that tone and that guitar is pure bliss man
Lithium pickups??
Im 37 and played six string since i was 13. Im on day 8 of playing my new schecter 7 string. Its videos like this that i really appreciate. Thankyou!
How do you like it?
36 and just got a 7 string
I’m 37, been playing 6 string since about 13, and purchased a 7 string back in the late 90s due to the korn craze but didn’t understand any of the scales etc and it was more confusing then anything, now about a month or so I just purchased a schecter 7 string, so sweet and slightly less confusing then the first time round
That frigginnnm tonnneeeeeee is so goooodddddddd
I think some of it is he is a good guitar player with a good ear.
Well yea him and rebea are my favorite guitarist Oo and mark Holcomb and also tosin
The day Rabea's video came out, it was on my YT recommended feed (had never seen one of his videos before). I watched it, and was so randomly inspired that as soon as the video was over, I got out of bed, drove to Guitar Center, and bought a 7-string hahaha XD.
I've been wanting to write this album I've been thinking up for several years, and after hearing him play in that video, I thought "Wow... I *really* feel like a 7-string would help me produce the music/sound I desire for my music...!". I suck at guitar, and have never applied the time and effort it takes to "obtain an intermediate level". However, having this guitar now is *awesome*. I *LOVE* the depth that comes from the extra string. It gives a normal chord so much more life/power/passion, I feel.
Anyway... thanks for the vid!! Like I said, I suck at guitar and have lots to learn, so anything 7-string related would be awesome.
Sometimes, all it takes is a little "creative nudge". For example, you highlighting a chord you really like the sound of 5:50 , and other chords/progressions you played... For me, my brain is like "Woah! That's really awesome! I never thought of trying something like that!". And now I'm grabbing my guitar, and experimenting with brand new things, opening a door to a-whole-nother creative realm haha. Don't feel bad if you "didn't provide much" 9:58 because, like I said, you did a LOT for me just by saying and doing the simplest things! I think the video was very helpful, and absolutely not a waste of my time that I value so much.
Have a great day! :D
I grew up on Fear Factory and Korn, a week after playing 6 string l sold my playstation 3 at the time for a used RG7321 and it felt so much more natural to me and how l always imagined metal guitar in my mind, that low deep-end growl and the way it felt in my hands (huge hands, huge build l am 6'4''), ever since then, l've also learnt to love 6 string a lot but the 7 will always be my main, especially with the "bassist approach" to it, reaching lower notes on a standard tuning quicker with vertical movement rather than horizontally.
I started playing guitar around 11-14 ish and stopped until last year 2021 and picked up a 7 string instead of a normal 6 and found it to be no different felt very natural and didn’t even have to think just tuned it played it and was like why do people over complicate extended range guitars?
@@guitar_goes_brrrr8237 ya, ok sure
Drop G# is my preferred tuning as well! Good choice.
Scarred Protector ya I like that one as well, but I also like drop A# and right now I’m digging drop F#
I play this kind of stuff in a# standard. Idk why but its really hard for me to get used to drop tunings🤔
It sounds too muddy
Firstly the Kiesel is sounding SICK!
I commented on Rabea's video yesterday basically saying the exact same thing - Tuning on 7 string has made a massive difference in how easy it was for me to transition from 6 string. Great point you made about treating 7 string as a low tuned guitar with an extra high string instead of an extra low string - that's exactly my thought process too.
Once you start thinking about it that way it all starts to make sense.
Looking forward to more updates on the guitar build too
Finally! Another modern djent/metal player who idolizes Rabea! Great to see your approach to 7-string, been a 7-string player for about 3 years now and I can never go back.
Bro your tone in this video is simply amazing. sounds so good man.
One of these days ill figure out a similar tone. Just awesome.
never could get into the vanquish shape until this vid! every part of that thing is an absolute knockout 👌
Interesting to know your approach to writing stuff! It made me realise that I've never tried to analyse my approach.
Your approach is very cool and you explained it well i think many people would be inspired from it , would love to see more :D
Thanks for the video! Absolutely amazing tones and that guitar is absolutely killer! Hope to see you around Luxembourg!
Actually this Guitar originated in Russia hence the name "Russian Guitar" & yeah that Drop Ab Tuning is also great for playing Van Eps Music. Bucky Pizzarelli used the 7 String Guitar as a Jazz Guitar which really rocked.
I played a 7 string for nearly 20 years and after developing carpal tunnel in my hands a six string just feels more comfortable in my hands plus as a bonus now I can really play the hell out of a six string now after all that time on a 7, lol.
i actually got a kiesel 7 string with a hipshot kiesel trem efter watching one of your demos on that guitar. i sold all my other stuff to get it, and its really the best buy i ever done in my life.
I love the versatility that comes with a 7 string guitar. It opens up a whole new world. The only problem with me and a 7 string is I have fairly small hands and short fingers, so I'm just trying to adapt to make it more comfortable to play. Slowly but surely.
This made a ton of sense (you asked yourself several times)! Very interesting for me (and honest), about your approach with the root string and going from there, because I do pretty much the same though I got no educational background like you did.
They way you explained this worked very well for me. Cheers
Thanks so much man! Really useful video, Awesome tone and I would really like to hear more about how you approach writing melodies (that are so heavy!!). Peace
I got an 8 string a couple of years ago and when I don't play it for a few days, it still feels very alien to me, it's definitely a jump in to the deep end.
awesome video bro, we have common influences and it's always outstanding to listen shared thoughts and pov's about music... keep it up :D
Nice explanations. Off topic, but I didn't really like the Vanquish so much until I saw yours. Somehow the color really makes that guitar work for me. Awesome!
What you are talking about is actually very easy for me to understand I actually feel like it's quite simple in a way because it's very similar to how I play in that you never treat the seventh string as just the seventh string you start from there and then progress
The way you talked and described was easy to follow. Continue what you're doing!
Thank you for being such an inspiration for me. Your Videos are so fun to watch and they make me pick up my guitar and Djam around.
Could you do more 'No Ostriches' stuff?
i played one just like it in the same color but with gold hardware... greatest guitar ive ever played hands down. my life will not be complete until i own one.
I want to replace my neck position pick up on my esp h207 with something that will get me as close to the classic strat nexk/middle position tone... Any suggestions??
how u write breakdowns or u r idea behind it ...i wanna know
Its actually nice to hear these tips without theory in mind. Im not great at theory either bc im self taught like most guitarist.
We share the common inspiration from Rabea, brother. But seriously...your style and tone are an inspiration to myself and certainly others.
I really enjoy the melodic elements of your play-style. It's not just "chug, chug, chug, widdly diddly, shred shred, look how fast I can play."
It's beautiful in all the best ways. Maybe you could touch on how you approach that in a future video? I personally feel there aren't enough
guitarists in the "djent" scene playing melodies that you can sing/hum. That's the stuff that really gets stuck in my head.
I’ve been on 6 for 30 years , huge fear factory fan . Jus picked up a Jackson 7 string 2 days ago and with my huge hands oddly I’ve never felt more comfortable and happy in drop A .
Hey man, late to your channel but thanks for this! I would like to see a video of how you prepare a song, moving through finding the chords and riffs. I love those videos :D
Ok, you gained a sub now. I would for you to explain more about your tuning and approach note by note how you create the chords (?) I hope this makes sense lol. I am new to the genre and will really love to create something with my new 7 string. Also, would love to see you programing your drums. Thanks!
Would love to see you playing Periphery's new single, Blood Eagle. You are an amazing player and your playing style has encouraged me a lot in playing guitar and to keep learning. Keep up the good work :)
why would you think a modern metal player cares about the top string hahah, we literally just go 0-0-0-0-0-0-0
I wouldn't say that to sa more like...000100020001110013111000.
Maybe throw a 12 in there randomly too!
It's all about riffs
Would like string for string tuning you use in this video. Just recently got my 7 string and tuning is a huge issue for me
Absolutely awesome 👍👍
Your tone is very nice and Love your play style.
Good Video was helpfull for me. go on for more Videos like this !
Greetings from Germany!
Do a whole series on this. Show some of the chord shapes and voicings you use. Love your channel m8!
hey maybe you can do a smal video series on how to get from one single riff to an arrangement. especially the part where you play your first idea and then try to find other parts for the song. There are soo many videos about how to record and how to get the heavy sound, but nearly all of them didn't show how they find / create their songparts (with errors during this process included)
cheers
Very interesting vid, thanks, what do you think about drop A on 7 strings guitars?
This is awesome! Great info!
Questuion - since this video was about Drop A# tuning what about standard B tuning on the 7th string, as many new to 7 string will probably start with?
How do you come up with your chord progressions and chord voicings?
I see some similar stuff in your playing as in my too, rabea is such an influence for me too!
This was a very good video man, I'm definitely going to try out these tips!
YES!! This is why I started following!!
ive always approached a 7 string as a low tuned 6 string with an additional high string as i tune my 6 string guitars as low as f# aswell
I think overall your explanation was pretty good. And can you do a video on the tone you used for this video and how you got it? Because it's amazing lol
I bought an 8 string because I really loved tony danza. The EBEBEF#BE tuning was an amazing way to get used to the whole situation
Very interesting take and very good playing!
What mode do you start in and your tuning your video was very helpful and opened my eyes to a few things thanks
Great explanation, I have a very similar approach as well but don’t worry about forgetting theory until you need it
I would love to see a video explaining your go-to patterns, shapes and ideas in this tuning. It sounds so much like erra.. why is that? I know they use the same tuning but what gives them that sound? Thanks!!!
Thats a great idea i am thinking about having a custom schecter 7 string guitar made soon my very first ever over 700.00 guitar
ever.. THANK YOU VERY YOUR APPROCH
What is your high E tuned too? I wanna try that technique out to switch it up but idk what I should tune it up too
The tone on yours sounds badass
More views than subscribers means you hit a nerve there. Very underrated UA-camr in general.
Hey! I love your videos and your playing. Could you make a video on your approach to downtuning? Like string gauges and and scale length etc? I love your playing and would appreciate your thoughts and opinions!
I have a Zeus multi 7, but this really makes me want to check out a Vanquish.
That was very interesting! A video on picking, muting and accenting would be really nice
What scales are your favorites? I have the black grimmoire for six strings but haven't gotten into it yet. I also just picked up my first 7 string guitar, and how you explained it is how I've been going about things in this first week so far.
Killer Kiesel guitar and amazing playing. Keep it up.
Love the Erra/Kadinja/Novelists riffs
Hey man, love your videos. Please do a right hand technique video. Cheers
Hey man so I've been really diving deep into the 7 string for months now. Basically i've been writing progressions using a scale and then making sure the progression lines up with that scale. And the tuning im using is standard with dop A on the B string. But theres a couple things that are baffling me a bit. 1.) If Im playing say a Prog-ish bar chord that I would normally play on a 6 string and then bar with the extra string does it change what chord im playing since the root note of the chord has changed? I suppose its just two A strings instead of one but my lack of theory makes it confusing haha. 2.) If you're playing a drop tuning where ALL your strings are tuned down, does that mean you have to play the scales you know in standard tuning differently? Thanks :)
Rabea is so underrated
I just bought my first 7 string today. I was buying guitar after guitar, and I was never happy with any of them. But when I started playing it, I instantly felt at home and started writing my first song. I’ll never go back to 6 string again that I can foresee.
Great video! What would the equivalent of dadgad be on a 7 string?
Is the tuning d# eadgbe
I love Rabea Cool dude😎😎 great work man!
Awesome video and thank you for sharing your tips.💙💙
I love that guitar
Been playing guitar for about 30 years and looking at getting my first 7 string. Ibanez has some really cool series to look at. I have watched reviews of them all and seems to either be really good or extremely bad. The demo videos show a well made guitar. Probably going to GC 🤮 to try them out. If I find one I like then I will order it from Sweetwater.
Love you melodies,what's your tuning?
Hey , man! What strings gauge you used? Thx for vid!
Daamnnnn you powered my motivation
Thanks man
Very nice, thanks for these infos!!
Very Cool! Just got a Jackson 7. What did you tune your Guitar to in this vid?
Awesome video! I'm looking for 7 string guitar lately and being used to play a baritone 6 string guitar, I always think of 7 strings as having an extra high string instead of an extra bass string.
But it's not
What's your signal chain?
What scale is that pattern you play at 4:40? And then move it around? Sounds awesome
what were you using for the tone in this vid?
inspiring chugg !! keep shreddin - it can djent!
Nice tone!!!!
What is the color of Guitar?
I got your point with your style. it makes sense. I hear some bea's influence. Thanks for sharing! :)
Ok so it's the same approach I take except infinitely better. GG!
What string gauge do you use on this guitar?
Big Rabea fan here, too :) So influential for me...
there is a way to tune that makes the high string the addition, you treat the 4th string like the s3rd
What are using in your signal chain? I absolutely love the tone!
What are you using to get that tone?
I’m also interested in open tunings.
As a songwriter and i would say decent guitar player is it better/easier to start with rythm or a melody? Ive had trouble evolving my riffs into what i want and i was curious where the best place to start is? Like riffs, melodies, lyrics?
Niko Matthee I think in this genre it's mostly with the rhythm, that's what I do very often. It happens that I've found a cool lead part and then I look for a rhythm sometimes. And about lyrics, I have no idea since I'm quite bad at that😅
please??? how to get that tone!!!!??? AHHH
What you can say about multiscale guitar? Is it worth to buy? What is better? 27 scale guitar or 27 multiscale?) in your opinion
Gremlin #Dream Arts I would say they make life a bit easier if you have a longer scale, like 27" for instance! However I think the fan (the angle at the first fret) should not be too extreme, otherwise it misses the point of being for ergonomic.
The multiscale is technically "better", but it comes down to taste and hand size. I do perfectly fine on my 27" Ibanez RGA8 aswell without missing multiscale
@@MilianMalivukMusic thank you for reply, no i get the idea better.
