The video is a playthrough of his song "My Heart is of the North" where he is playing on his custom Aristides.

"I’m using a six-string in drop-D and eight-strings, but mostly I’m using two Ibanez RGD seven-strings: a custom and factory model. They are longer scale and built for lower tunings," says Ihsahn, in this interview with Guitar World, which includes this photo of Ihsahn with one of his RGD seven-strings.

"Apart from that, my main sound is from my Blackstar heads. I have the Series One 200, and I have the 100-watt Artisan head, which sounds like a vintage Plexi. They’re very low noise and have great clarity. My ideal guitar sound is not just a wall of distortion but rather one that you can still hear the attack of the strings, even with heavy gain. So I’ve found a combination of those two amps works well," says Ihsahn, in this interview with Guitar World.
