gw_guitars Posted November 4, 2003 Report Posted November 4, 2003 Found this site by accident Thought I let you know I kinda like the guitars, strange but somehow nice Welcome to Warr Guitars Gerard Quote
gw_guitars Posted November 4, 2003 Author Report Posted November 4, 2003 Yeah, I did. Nice music. Wonder how they play those instruments. There was a classical guitarist by the name of Narcisso Yepes, who had a classical guitar with 10 strings. I often wondered how it would be to play on such an instrument. Probably difficult, very difficult Gerard Quote
YDoesGodMockMeSo Posted November 5, 2003 Report Posted November 5, 2003 don't the fellows from meshugga play their 8string guitars/ Quote
Devon Headen Posted November 5, 2003 Report Posted November 5, 2003 I've seen a classical guitarist that used 8-strings. I'd give the site, but we just reformatted, so I don't have it...he did flight of the bumble bees..that was interesting Quote
daveq Posted November 5, 2003 Report Posted November 5, 2003 Looks very interesting. They claim to have the best tone in the world. How many times have you heard that claim? I think their claim to fame would be more in the lines of innovation and creativity but I guess every builder has to say that they've got the best tone. Everybody's worried about their tone. Tone, tone, tone!!! It's driving me mad!!!!! Quote
erikbojerik Posted November 6, 2003 Report Posted November 6, 2003 Wonder how they play those instruments. The Chapman Stick, reinvented. You play it mainly by tapping/slapping the strings with as many fingers as you dare (think "hammer-on"), as well as the usual technique. Tony Levin was the master... Quote
Drak Posted November 6, 2003 Report Posted November 6, 2003 Thanks Erik. I'm gonna go slap on 'Discipline' right now! Quote
westhemann Posted November 6, 2003 Report Posted November 6, 2003 Wonder how they play those instruments. The Chapman Stick, reinvented. You play it mainly by tapping/slapping the strings with as many fingers as you dare (think "hammer-on"), as well as the usual technique. Tony Levin was the master... the thing that really impresses me is the ability to play a clean rythm and a distorted lead on the same instrument at the same time.i love that video on the chapman site Quote
