Hedras Ramos Premieres "Eucalyptus" Playthrough Video
Once again, we’ve gotten together with seven- and eight-string prog-metal guitarist Hedras Ramos to premiere an exclusive new video. This time, it’s a down-and-dirty playthrough clip for “Eucalyptus,” another track off his latest album, 2017’s The Impressionist.
“In this clip I’m using my new Cort KX500MS,” Ramos says. “It’s a new model they released this year—their first seven-string multi-scale guitar. I’m loving the multi-scale; it makes complete sense to me. It feels like the frets move with your hand, as if they’re breathing with you. The guitar is tuned a half-step down, and the seventh string is tuned to Ab for ‘Eucalyptus’.”
We posted our first story about Ramos seven years ago, when we identified him as a prodigy—and certainly someone to look out for in the future. Ramos has made major strides since 2011, catching the eyes and ears of scores of top guitarists and media outlets; he was chosen by Axl Rose to open for Guns N’ Roses in Guatemala—and he’s opened for White Cross, Kansas, Die Toten Hosen and many others.
