mid range guitar(NO TREM)

[regal cloud]

I've been looking around the market and i found this amazing deal on a schecter banshee elite 6 but unfortunatley it was sold. I am now stuck between the C1 InK BOMB and the Solar a2.6 Canibalismo+.
I am mainly looking to play nu metal, thrash, hard rock and maybe even dabble into some deathcore with this guitar. please help

I might as well mention that the ink bomb is a little out of my price range by about £100 but hypothetically it goes on sale for that much less amount what should i do

[pine wharf]

deathcore and thrash on the same guitar?

youll probably need a 7 string

because having drop g and e standard on one 6 string is a bit challenging

but if im picking between the 2 im taking schecter inkbomb

[regal cloud]

maybe not that low. I was thinking a little stuff from all shall perish hence why i said dabble. but its defo not the main thing i will be playing

[flint galleon]

Bro you don’t have to go that low for deathcore

[flint galleon]

Imo the schecter cause I like active pickups and prefer Tom bridge

Also cause I don’t like solar super strat

[pine wharf]

i look at stuff like whitechapel when i think deathcore

but maybe im wrong and some stuff that i put in metalcore are actually deathcore

[pine wharf]

oh, so drop b.

youll be more or less fine with a set of like 1252s or 1148s

[pine wharf]

same i like their other stuff and weird stuff

[flint galleon]

Ngl I have my Ltd eclipse in drop B with 10-52 lol

[pine wharf]

i used to play drop b with 1148s on a 25.5

its not that bad

even tho id rather have 1260 for perm drop b

I have a 6 string with a low 74 string ... It's tuned in drop D on the first 5 strings and has a low E for the 6th ( one octave down from standard)

[pine wharf]

hold on, drop D on first 5?

isnt that just like the same as standard

🤨

so you have standard tuning with low E down oct

[narrow escarp]

nein ... it';s drop D without the high E

[pine wharf]

ah EEADGB?

with E1 and E2

[narrow escarp]

so E DGBE

[pine wharf]

🤨

[narrow escarp]

eeh ... wait ... E-D-A-D-G-B

[pine wharf]

oh thats pretty cool

got it from this video

had a GIO lying around that I did not use

[regal cloud]

Is there anything actually wrong with it or like problems I should maybe know about?

[flint galleon]

I just don’t like how it looks lol

[regal cloud]

Ahh right

Do you have any vague idea when Schecter gets sales?

[flint galleon]

Nope

[pliant vale]

have you checked out the reaper-6? should be around your budget

or sunset-6 extreme

[regal cloud]

I don’t really like how the reaper 6 looks like

[regal cloud]

I had a look at it and it does look very nice, the neck is a bit bright imo but it’s not much of an issue, why do you think it’s better to get that over ink bomb or solar a2.6+?

[pliant vale]

it's just another option for you to consider, personally i avoid toms though

[regal cloud]

Wym by toms?

[pliant vale]

it's a bridge type, the ink bomb has a tom

[flint galleon]

Why they are the best lol

[pliant vale]

i don't like how they feel and having to angle a screwdriver under strings to intonate

regular hardtails are just better
