I think he was talking about taking a classical guitar which already has a wider neck and bridge, and squeezing 7 strings onto it. I don't think it's a good idea. It'd be too narrow for 7 nylon strings, and i don't think classical guitars are built to take the kind of string tension you'd get with steel strings. Classical guitars also tend to be shorter scale.
