My Chris Woods RGA7 is finally complete!
I finally got around to finishing the custom Christopher Woods RGA7 body I bought a few months back!

This was my first time finishing a guitar body, and it turned out pretty good, though I couldve done a better job staining it. It plays and sounds fantastic though!


Just ignore the little smear where I didnt get enough stain






RGA121 + RG7621 = RGA7621FM

The reflections on your 7621 give it the coolest looking finish I've ever seend.

Looks great dude. How much did it set you back?

And why have you decided to put the Drop Sonic in the other way round on the 6 string?

EdgeCrusher is a jewel in the rough
The body was $250 and I used the parts from a RG7621 that I bought on Ebay for $250, and the pickups were $130, so $630 total. Not bad at all for a custom mahogany/maple 7 string!

I switched around the D Sonic in the 6'er because its tuned to drop D, and it was just a bit too bright the other way. It sounds good that way for B or C, but not for anything higher. It sounds perfect in the 7's though, even on the high strings, so the 6 and 7 string versions must be just a little different.

I actually ripped the DS6 and AN6 from my RG570FM, so its out of commision untill I come up with the cash for new pickups for that. I think im going to switch it up and go with the Tone Zone/Blue Velvet/Humbucker from Hell for that one. Then I'll be set!
