There I was thinking that an 11 string would have some super low strings :P

Cool video

i think that it is pointless. its just like a mirrored guitar stuck on to a normal guitar. in the video he barly uses them. i think if you want something like you should buy a chapman stick.

yeah, it's a novelty.

But what brand is that? If it's a custom shop i like to have an 8 string

That's Goncalo Pereira, there is a thread here about him, he doesn't usually play a 11-string as far as I know...

it looks like its a EBGDAEADGBE like kinda a mirror effect thingy, so like 10-13-17-26-36-46-36-26-17-13-10 on standard, pretty sweet though, nice tapping

man if u could redo that nut n the bridge a lil bit, u could get a 4 string bass, then a 7 string into that. that would be freakin sweet. i would def. buy that if i had the money.
