Metal guitarists seem to be largely unafflicted by guitarist conservatism. They're eager to play guitars with seven, eight or more strings, fanned frets and unusual pickups like Fishman Fluences or Lace Alumitones. They've embraced amp modelling and digital effects. They're the main buyers of headless guitars. They were the main buyers of Floyd Rose bridges back when they were exciting new technology and they're the main buyers of Evertune bridges today.
