Popped my 7 cherry today...

Yep, I hopped down to the local GC to scope out the selection - and what a selection it was: 2 7321s (neither of which were set up and buzzed like hell) and a C7 Hellraiser - actually tuned. So, after playing 'em I really can't decide which one felt better, the 7321 felt very fast and non-resistant, whereas the Schecter felt somewhat more substantial. When it comes to sixers I'm more of the thick neck kinda guy, I have two Artcore thinline hollowbodies, but I dunno... I think I'll have to play 'em a couple of dozen more times before I can tell.
All in all the curiosity is giving way for full-on lust, that low B made a rumbly in my tumbly that I'll not so soon forget.

Sound-wise, couldn't really tell thanks to the half dozen kids cranking the MGs and bringing teh bro0o0talz... next time I'm heading to the POD display, where headphones reign supreme...

The stock pickups in the 7321s are horrific, so the Hellraiser is almost guaranteed to sound better

Plus, you know, the Hellraiser is a Schecter. That's a big advantage over the 7321.

HR for the win!


Glory and praise to Thee, Satan, on high,
Where Thou didst reign, in Hell where Thou dost lie,
Vanquished, silent, dreaming eternally.
Grant that my soul some day rest close to Thee
Under the Tree of Knowledge which shall spread
Its branches like a Temple overhead.

LOL, the other day I was trying out the X3 and thank God I had ear buds in (Isolation ones that sound AMAZING!) because the kid across from me was wanking on some retarded shit and wasn't anywhere near being in tune.

And his mom was there, who I felt sorry for.
PODs FTW

Try to get there when all the little mongrels are in school it'll be better and you'll have some peace and quiet to give the guitars a thorough once over.

Unfortunately that time coincides with the time I spend at the dreaded dayjob
Besides, I almost prefer the salespeople being tied up with the kiddies, keeps 'em from asking me "So, when you takin' it home, broheim" every 2 minutes. I'm hoping to actually hear the guitars next time around, even if I have to bring my in-ears with me. All I can say for now is that I liked the feel of both guitars, as well as the feel of the additional string, I just don't know which one I liked better.... yet. But I finally know what you people are babbling on about!
