They use custom 8-string Ibanez.... Dino Cazares (ex Fear factory, Asesino, Brujeria) got one a while back too...

Meshuggah originally got their 8-strings from Nevborn, the Sleipner XL model.
www.nevbornguitars.com

They also have Ibanez 8-strings of a similar design.



Tuning?

Meshuggah used Bb on 7-strings, so they basically got it extended with a lower F, another perfect 4th down. Some may argue that you should get a higher string or a lower string a perfect 3rd down, so it reflects the higher strings of the guitar. The Sleipner I model by Nevborn features a higher string.

I remember Rusty playing on an 8-string like that a couple of years back at a clinic.
