ESP LTD JR-608QM Javier Reyes Signatur 8-strängad gitarr

Allmänt

LTD's JR-608QM is an 8-string electric guitar with a rather luxurious look. For one, its Mystique body features a remarkably stylish Quilted Maple top and several bits gold-coloured hardware. Additionally, the JR-608QM is equipped with a duo of Reyes' signature DiMarzio humbuckers. Moreover, this is a long-scale guitar - a baritone model with a scale length of 27 inches to compensate for the extremely low B and F# strings. It is an incredibly impressive instrument for guitarists who'd like to dive deep into the abysmal depths of metal.

JR-608QM: Javier Reyes

Javier Reyes experiments away in the progressive metal band Animals as Leaders. Together with Tosin Abasi, he's responsible for their roaring guitar sound - quickly swapping over his 7-string for an 8-string guitar. Influenced by classical music, Javier uses his electric guitar as some sort of piano, giving him an incredibly wide range. It is small wonder then that he chose for 8-string signature models, of which the ESP LTD JR-608QM is the most striking. What's more, this guitar has a sustain-enhancing neck-through-body construction.
