Title: Warpig -detuned Death Metal from the icy North
Post by: Drac on May 11, 2006, 11:14:14 AM
Howdy-
Been a while since I have posted any soundclips, so here ye go...

The Guitars are my work-
 My mate playing  his Librium 'ChupaCabra'  27" Baritones
w/ custom Warpigs: ceramic mags, uncovered
amp:Mesa Recto Recording,2x90

I play leads in this project : abusing my precious Librium 'Vorpal Blade Vee', fit with a Warpig Alnico, camo covered 4 wire to series parallel- I use this switch for transitions between lead/rhythm tones...love it.
rig:Zvex theMachine/WahProbe,Triaxis,G-force,2x90

The Tune is called 'Loathe,Scorn,Detest'-taken from a demo we tracked in Feb.2006-Band is Downlord,from Copenhagen,Dk.
it's racing along-tuned down to 'A'-

Fun project-Throatman is my best mate, Dave Ingram:sang with Boltthrower for 6 years after fronting Benediction for 8-super guy, and powerful mouthpiece!
Drummer is Reno Killerich:danish death metal drumgod-ex Dimmu Borgir/OldMansChild-we would be recording with him now, but he's touring Europe with HateEternal-good for him!-& our loss.

enjoy, and let me know what ye think. Also if ye have problemos trying to download/play it- many thanks!

cheers from Drac

Awesome stuff Drac. Really liked the tune. I didn't realise that was a drummer! I didnt read the description very carefully. Really good lead work as well from yourself, and obviously brilliant tone. The two tones work very well together and are very clear, especially for drop A. Any tips on keeping it that defined while tuned so low?

Nice one!
Title: Sharpness detuned...
Post by: Drac on May 11, 2006, 03:58:04 PM
Fresh Strings...

Heavy ones...
'56,'52,'46,'36,'26,'16-  
keep the string tension up-
heavier strings '60-'70 baritone strings start sounding like bass strings- no snap-

Back the Warpigs down a little so they're in the zone-

setup guitars different for low tuning-

more compensation,  as lower pitched strings bend wildly sharp EASY
shim the nut a hair,to eliminate fret buzz
dead flat Fingerboard + 1/8-1/4  turn of  the truss rod
-minimal relief


cheers for the kind words-Drac

Blimey Drac-that was bloody good. Not my sort of music ( I am more a Val Doonican fan*) but extremely well played - as JP would say, f@*king hails.


*note:this is a joke-I don't really like Val Doonican- I far prefer Roger Whittaker- especially his death metal period (the album:  My wife knitted my cardigan from dead virgin's hair and the heavy accordian on  "psycopathic nun")

Hey!

Sorry for reviving such an old thread, but my long research on Warpigs led me here. Other forum members actually recommend looking for Drac's clips for reference on detuned stuff on Warpigs.

Well, I am building a baritone telecaster and I would like some suggestions on most suitable body woods to match a maple neck/rosewood fretboard. I am putting a ceramic Warpig on it and I was hoping I could tune down to Ab. Since you got some experience with this kind of setup, I'd love to hear your thoughts.

PS: I love Bolt Thrower, Benediction and Panzerchrist. AWESOME clip!

This sounds great! Always cool to hear Dave Ingram, love both Benediction and Bolt Thrower :)
