Doom1200 Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Ok. Last week, my Fender Strat crapped out on me. So I went out and picked up an Ibanez RG7321 7-String. After playing it for awhile, it hit me like a brick that I can no longer play 6-String songs. #-o So. Here's my problem. I only know of 2(maybe 3, read on)bands that use 7-Strings. And they are: Slipknot Demon Hunter Mastodon(I think they do. Can someone confirm this for me please?) So, basically, I was wondering if you guys knew of any good bands that use 7-Strings. It'd be greatly appreciated. Thanks! \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart_G Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Devin Townsend uses a 7 string guitar. Look up either Strapping Young Lad for more metal songs or The Devin Townsend Band or just his name for more mellow songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldphishies Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Joe Satriani and Steve Vai for a few songs...

wakka102 Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Korn and Limp Bizkit, 2 of my favorite bands (Korn being my favorite of all time) I'd kill for a 7 string but I don't want to spend the money on one right now. You can also play Evanescence and Staind on one, they use very detuned chords. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
