Yeah, I'm not exactly out there looking for 7 stringers. I go commute to Cortland 3 days a week, most of my time has gone to school so a band hasn't even crossed my mind. You'd think Syracuse would be crawling with 7 string players, but the big metal scene up here is hxc and that doesn't offer much in the 7 string department haha

im from Horseheads, but since im at college, i live in Alfred.... i dont actually live in Horseheads anymore, i live in a small town right outside of Watkins Glen called Burdett... its about 1.5 hours from Syracuse... im really suprised you havent been able to find other 7 string guitarists in a city like syracuse

Hey dude, whereabouts in Upstate NY are you? I'm in the Syracuse area and only know one other person that plays 7s (literally met him a week ago haha)
