    Every A7X fan here HAS to check out this band

    I’m a big fan of their guitar players. Their band gets a lot of undeserved hate. Every song off their self titled is spectacular.

    String Preference

    I use Ernie Ball super Slinkys cobalts on my schecter, Ernie Ball heavy bottoms on my Gibson. Love the way they feel. Always been an Ernie Ball person

    Writing leads

    Hey guys, I had a question on writing leads. Instead of just playing arpeggios, what are ways to develop outside the box leads? Would changing the chords to something like a Phrygian dominant, etc. or changing keys mid progression help? Also for solo writing, I know it should be a bunch of licks...

    How frequently should I be changing strings?

    Synyster Gates School Merch?

    I think a laser etched slide or etched guitar picks with Syns signature would be awesome. Also draw string bags would be great.

    How Did You Get Into A7X? Did The Music Help You Cope Ever?

    I’m younger, 18 to be exact. But basically I’ve played guitar since 7 and was never really that into it. Around 14 my guitar teacher had a heart attack and I’d figured I’d be done with guitar. But just before I figured I quit my friend showed me welcome to the family. I heard the guitar solo and...

    Decided after my Levels by Avicii guitar remix, I’d do one on Don’t Let Me Down by The Chainsmokers
