Anybody know about how much these go for? You have to have them custom made by first act, so I am sure it's not cheap. Anybody played one? Just looking for info before I pull the trigger. Thanks.
 
Originally made for Matt Pike from High on Fire. It's a 9 string paired guitar, not a 9 string extended range. Meaning, it's a 6 string, with the G, B, and high E strings doubled like a 12-string. Gives you the 12-string sound without losing the low end tightness of a 6-string for rhythm playing.
 
Agreed

I remember first seeing a 9 string like this a few years back when the fucking champs played here, was another mean band packed full of riffs
 
Nick from Daughters had a sick one too. I imagine the extra friction for Daughters riffs would make them impossible on a 9-string.

As far as price is concerned, I think there was one for sale on eBay recently for about $2k. I suspect a new one is probably a bit more.
