This is my 27” 7 string kit build rom . Outfitted with 13-56’s & .80 strings, strap locks, tuning k***s, and some cheap as F**K h/o humbuckers from Amazon that sound so rugged. A budget build for sure, but insanely inspirational to play.
The new single // DISINTEGRATE // was written on this guitar, hear it’s low-tuned growl along with a couple of my favorite axes at TheCauldronOfDarkness.Bandcamp.com. (Link in bio!)
What are YOU riffing-out on??

Some more digital art here, could easily be an alternate album cover for GENESIS. If you’ve ready the album synopsis, it would make a lot of sense (link in bio!). Either way, it was fun to create, and pretty cool to look at.

My refinished 5 string, tuned to drop f sharp. The first bass I’ve ever owned, budget, no frills, gets the job done.
Up until recording , I hadn’t really put much thought into playing bass, let alone owning or recording one. I love a massive bass tone (who doesn’t???), and have been putting a lot more effort into achieving that.
I would like to reveal a little snippet of my new material, and may end up doing that, but until then, I promise that my upcoming ep will be sonically crushing-with enough bottom end to shake your fillings loose.

Hard to say which of these two refinished SGR C-7’s I like the most. Other than pickups, they are the same guitar; 2 model years apart.
Super budget friendly builds, and largely stock, but excellent tools to have at my disposal. Each with a different feel and sound.
The black 2012 model is equipped with 81/85-7’s and a 24v mod. The dark burst 2014 model is equipped with HIVE passives.
What pickups are YOU fu***ng with??

01/12/2021

Sup folks! Created some new artwork for fun, looks pretty epic.
Stoked to be inching closer towards recording the new ep. S**t is going to be wild; dark, beautiful, unrelenting.

This is my refinished 2012 SGR C-7. I picked this guitar up for under $200 used in a standard gloss black-not really my style. This was my first 7 string, a toe in the waters.
This guitar is from the ultimate economy line of Schecter, I don’t think they even make them anymore; yet the playability, feel, & quality of this guitar, I feel SH*TS on other more known brands at this same price point. Obviously, I have done work to this guitar, but even in stock form, I would pick a Schecter over anything else.
I used this guitar exclusively to write and record the entirety of ‘GENESIS’. Download now, link in bio 👆🏻👆🏻👆🏻
Few mods other than the complete refinish include: strap locks, HIVE pickups, strings 13-56+.070, stock electronics/hardware.

These are my picks of choice, the signature picks by .
Slightly larger than a standard Jazz III, 1.5mm thick, these picks feel great in the hand, the raised JP logos provide a ton of grip. These picks are made of Ultex, which gives these bad boys some pretty serious durability, as well as a few tonal benefits that I have found to be an integral part of my playing/sound.
It’s really hard to reach for anything else since discovering these picks, but I would love to try out the pro models and the Prodigy picks.
What picks are YOU playing?

04/08/2021

Just slapped this bad boy into my refinished C-7SGR, loaded with 707 & 81. Ready to RIP!!
Big pp if you know what this is.

Wanted to give a big shout out and thank you to Chrysthian of ONE MAN BANDS! He was kind enough to share my single and full album stream on his YouTube channel.

Do yourself a favor and go check out his channel, he posts nothing but solo projects just like The Cauldron of Darkness. There are a lot of talented, multi disciplined musicians out there putting in a lot of hard work. Awesome to see a channel that really focuses and and spotlights them. Killer.
