It's common to a lot of people that play 7-strings that once you pick a sixers afterward, it feels like a toy, like it's missing something.
If i take myself as an example, the main reason why i play a seven is because it feels way more natural to me. My hands feels at home. On a 6-strings, my fingers are goin' 2 inches overboard...
I won't even get into the extended range... I'll let Drew explain since i'm more of a rhythm player! 
It's rarely only about goin' chugga-chugga on the 3 low strings, you know?  |
ya I get ya ... my hands are lil bitch hands though, I couldnt get my hands wrapped around it and it just felt akward
its kinda funny cuz in this time Rondo never got back to me about a 7 Hornet ... I would've bought it anyway but they just never did ... so I took it as a sign that Im a 6er :P
