7, 8 and 9 String Guitars

Break the limits of a standard guitar and unleash the vast potential of an extended-range instrument. Once a niche choice, 7-string and 8-string guitars have become popular tools for modern guitarists, expanding creative possibilities across metal, progressive, and even jazz styles.
A 7-string guitar adds a low B string, perfect for heavy riffing and intricate chord voicings. Steve Vai and the guitarists of Periphery are known for their skilled use of 7-strings to create new, complex riffs and define their unique sounds. Meanwhile, 8-string guitars, favoured by bands like Meshuggah and Animals as Leaders, introduce even lower tunings, allowing for massive, ground-shaking tones. 
7 and 8 string guitars are renowned for their djent prowess, but their strengths apply to numerous genres where the additional range can transform your riffs with exciting new tonal possibilities. 
Brands like Schecter, Jackson, Chapman and Strandberg craft gorgeous extended-range instruments that push sonic boundaries. With stunning modern finishes and options including multiscale necks, a variety of pickup configurations and bold headless models, there is a 7 or 8 string guitar perfect for your sound and style.
