Frequently asked questions
Can a left-handed player use the Demon-8?
The product descriptions provided do not list a left-handed Demon-8 option. Only the Demon-6 is explicitly offered in left-handed configuration.
What is the main tonal difference between these guitars?
The Demon-8's 28" scale and 8-string configuration emphasize extended low-end clarity and articulation across a wider frequency range, while the Demon-6 FR LH focuses on high-output, aggressive tones suited to standard 6-string metal and hard rock.
Which has better tuning stability?
The Demon-8 uses a hardtail bridge with string-through body design for maximum sustain and tuning stability. The Demon-6 FR LH uses a Floyd Rose Special, which offers expressive vibrato but requires more maintenance for stable tuning.
Are the neck profiles the same?
Both guitars feature the same thin 'C' neck profile with identical measurements at the 1st and 12th frets (.787" and .866" respectively), ensuring comparable comfort and playability between the two models.
