Here's a recent video some of you may find interesting of a guitar I built several years ago for a local artist named Lucas Haneman. The six middle strings are standard tuning and there's a low B and high A string bottom and top. It's the high A string that makes it really tricky to play.

I take it Lucas is vision challenged? Great player, and the guitar sounds good.

That's the kind of 8 string I would prefer to play instead of 2 downtuned strings like the djent boys.

Yes, Lucas is vision impaired.
