As far as strings... Dean Markley Blue Steels are the best strings I've ever used. I've been using them exclusively for years. The latest set I got though I bought because no local shops had the string guages I wanted so I went with D'Addario's which I don't really like. Don't get me wrong, I love D'Addario strings for my bass as their metallic clanky sound is nice and clicky for slap bass. I've just always disliked the metal clang they have for electric guitar use.

I work at GC (for the next 3 days, anyway) and we've got one used Schecter, and 4 different sets of 7 string strings. Basically only two different gauges though.
But we can order anything from anyone that we care, i.e. the 11-60 set GHS makes, anything Dean Markley, etc.
So if they completely dismiss you, it's because yes, they are lazy pricks.I for one get all excited about talking about all things seven string, so those particular customers are always referred to me
