8-string electric guitars

8 pcs

— multistring musical instruments expand the range of a standard 6-string guitar by adding one lower and one higher string. They are especially popular in genres like progressive metal, djent, technical rock, and experimental music. The additional strings allow for deeper, heavier riffs and complex harmonic moves, combining bass and guitar parts.
Most often, 8-string guitars have an extended scale length (650–700 mm and above) for better tension of the lower strings and are equipped with active pickups, a fixed bridge, or a multi-scale (fan-fret) design.
