Frequently asked questions
What's the main playability difference between 6 and 7 strings?
The Demon-6 FR has a standard 6-string setup with tremolo for vibrato effects, while the Demon-7 adds a lower B string on a longer 26.5" scale designed specifically for that extended range. The 7-string requires different technique and is common in metal and progressive music.
Why does the Demon-7 have a longer scale length?
The 26.5" scale on the Demon-7 maintains proper string tension on the lower B string, preventing excessive looseness or the need for extremely heavy gauge strings. The Demon-6 FR uses a standard shorter scale appropriate for 6-string tuning.
Which has better tuning stability?
The Demon-7 LH has a hardtail bridge that locks tuning in place, making it better for drop tunings and aggressive playing. The Demon-6 FR's Floyd Rose tremolo is expressive and fun but requires more maintenance and tuning attention.
Are both equally good for metal?
Both excel at metal, but for different styles. The Demon-6 FR suits classic heavy metal, hard rock, and djent with vibrato options. The Demon-7 LH is purpose-built for progressive metal and extended-range styles that benefit from the lower B string and stable hardtail bridge.
