Enter to win an Ibanez RG8: http://bit.ly/MeshuggahRG8
Premier Guitar’s Perry Bean hung out with Meshuggah’s tech, Kent Eriksson, who walks through the bone-crushing, cabinet-free rigs of Fredrik Thordendal, Mårten Hagström, and Dick Lövgren, the three Viking warriors of the extreme prog-metal apocalypse.
Fredrik Thordendal’s newest addition to his arsenal is this 2016 Ibanez LACS (Los Angeles Custom Shop) Stoneman with three Lundgren M8 pickups and a push/pull coil-split option. This Stoneman, like all of Thordendal’s axes, is strung with DR Tight Fit (.009-.072) strings and is tuned F–Bb–Eb–Ab–Db–Gb–Bb–Eb.
Hagström’s main guitar is his Ibanez LACS M8M with an alder body and one mighty Lundgren M8 pickup. This one is tuned a half-step down with a foam mute and strung with DR Tight Fit .009-.070) strings.

I kinda lost my shit when I was watching Meshuggah live, and during their set Dick came to the stage with this bass at 5:48. I thought they would’ve played Bleed. At that moment they didn’t, but they played it on the encore.
I will make use of dick’s bass tone thank you
“The clean channels, they don’t use.”
If Ibanez ever updates the Fredrik Thordendal model to have that custom ABM bridge I'd get one
interesting… Ibanez signature model for Thordendal ( FTM33 ) have 2 pickups and 27 inch scale
What is the purpose of the bent frets?
Meshuggah är världens bästa band!
Such a frustrating interviewer.
The Stryker bass is pretty bad arse…
The way the dude scoffs when he asks if their setup is similar in the studio ????
i like how "the god that failed" just randomly plays here and there
Fredrik Thordendal speaking about his 3 pickups Stoneman : “a test really… Never used the middle pickup (or neck for that matter) on any song or recordings yet”
I assume the 29.4” scale is brutal after a while. Great for the studio, but interesting to note that they’re gigging with 28” and 27” guitars now
7:49 "this is the bleed bass" goddamn…thats metal af
hey that's Perry!
At 13:25 Fredrik denies all allegations of using methamphetamine to improve his performance on stage
"Do you play 8 strings??" Can't believe you just asked that loll
2:49 yet another Swedish invention for PewDiePie to be prideful of. ????????????
6:28
You should fire your cameramen. When the tech points to the neck, he is focusing on the body. I've noticed this in a couple of your videos.
"The sustain, listen! it goes on for ever…"
does frederick share the cab IR?
8:18 I love this interviewer! The way he hit ken the tech with his own “yea yea yea” had me dying haha every time ken said yea yea yea throughout the interview I was distracted lol 8:18
Did he just say swamp ass body????? jk…
1:38 gosh that gray m2m looks so sick. I would wont in glossy gray tho!
"They don't change guitar hopefully…… I'm the greatest"????
Interviewer sucked.
a fixed bridge with a locking nut and fine tuners?? Wild!
Right everyone. It’s a 333k views. We can’t watch this anymore.
"just for Dick"
giggity
2:28
I prefer purchasing one of those over a surfboard.
