Great interview! Really like Andy's personality, he seems very down to earth and completely genuine.

Great interview, Andy’s awesome, real genuine & humble guy- met him during last tour stateside - great explanations on Evertune too!

26:00 evertune discussion

Awesome interview!

strongest eyebrows in the game

I had the same experience trying out an out of tune guitar with an Evertune bridge, put it down and bought it from the shop where it was in tune. Thanks this is the best guitar video I’ve seen on KZread in years. Subbed!

It’s a shame when that happens :( Thanks though, and welcome to the club!

Great interview

I love me some Andy James interviews and I've binged a lot of 'em, but this might be my favourite

great interview

Great interview and now signing up to Andy James instagram. Cheers

I had one and YES they work great.I set mine for std tuning but dropped the low E to D when needed and then back again pretty quickly. When I did open G I would drop the A to G and leave all others alone. Most open G stuff I played used 4 strings anyway.

Man, when you hear Andy James play, and see him covered in black clothes and tattoos - you do NOT expect that voice to come out of him... 🤣

19:29 ,,thank me later..!!

A plus side to all of this is that I was able to get an inexpensive Evertune Andy James LTD 7-string! I'm just amazed every time I pick it up and it really is completely in tune. Also happy that Kiesel now offers Evertunes as well. I have an old Carvin Bolt that I love and I really want to get a new Kiesel.

Oh for sure! Evertune had some great deals on the ESPs a few months back - hope more people jumped on them.

man i've seen him live in 2012 with sacred mothertongue as supportband for hellyeah. i didn't know who these guys were, i was there for hellyeah, but when i heard him play i knew "shit, this guy is better than every other guitarplayer in this building tonight!" i havn't looked further into SMT until like 2016 when i found a video of him playing a song called "warmarch" on the YT channel Jamtrack central. blew my mind!

Anyone know what the bass plugin for Kontakt is that Andy mentioned?

30:19 hahaha oh my :D

I want an evertune so much and the next "metal" type of guitar I'm gonna buy will definitively have one. A Solar might be a good choice I think but I never could try one and there are not so many of them out there. They are sold out pretty quick, at least the models I like are.

Ltd are affordable.....ive never tried an evertune.......if the tuning/intonation is like the videos i have seen.. ..its a no brainer

This vid has convinced me to try an evertune. If I like it enough I'll get a guitar with one. I've always been skeptical because of the whole wood route thing and loss of low end, but the counter points Levi and Andy had are completely valid too

Levi what is that tool that you both have in the video for adjusting the Evertune?

Ken Jones a 4mm hex key/Allen key will do it too.

Wqtching this in 2023, it's amusing that the bass Evertune has "been worked on for a while" and "probably soon", and yet... ;)

Waiting for the Andy james talks leaving kiesel interview soon.

New album?!?

Green Jelly did a video only album years ago. Originally they were named Green Jell-O. They got famous and Jell-O sued them to change their name. Their first release was "Little Pigs, Little Pigs". KZread it or Google it.

Robert Whitham TOOL played with those guys and Maynard did some backing vocals for them at the loft they all rehearsed at 👍

As an old timer, all I hear when Andy James talks is the same accent as Nigel Tufnel from This is Spinal Tap.

Very good dialogue. Personal experience with 7 and 8 strings is same as you describe in 29:55 - 30:12 that the low end goes sharp and just cuts right into the ear. I had to put 8 string guitar set on the 7 string guitar (13 - 74 gauge) in order to have the 7th string more stable and get rid off that unstable sound, but for many musicians they don't want to play on such fat cables and looking/prefer for thinner solutions and that's where Evertune bridge offers the solution. It's good to hear that you cover that ground and talk about evertune bridge, 7 and 8 string guitars by giving honesty and clarity for people who are not aware or are newcomers. ESP Guitars: Bobby Lynge (Fit for a King) on the E-II Horizon NT-7 EverTune (This Bobby Lynge describes as well the same issue without evertune and with evertune). Stay strong lads and keep grinding. :) Cheers.

Highly highly agree. Used to be a huge ESP fan, still kind of am, but now all they're about is profit.

Yeah. I lost some respect for them after they increased the price quotes of their Custom Shop by 200% and because they're only reserving the "ESP" name for the really expensive guitars.

Pundit07 yea I don’t understand why only the really expensive ones say ESP. I have two LTD’s that are amazing quality. Should say ESP.

I’m Skwid Too Because ESP wised up and realized that their name is highly prized so they are charging a very high premium for it now. I don't agree with it but I understand it.

He's 40 now how the fuck does he look so young?!?!?!?1

I love evertune, seriously convenient when you don’t have to tune every 5-10 minutes.
