I came really close to getting a UV, one of the multicolored ones signed by Steve Vai. It was for sale used at a decent price, but I couldn't get the cash together fast enough, so I ended up with an RG7620VK. Bought it off the shelf at Guitar Center. It took a lot of work to get the guitar back in working order, since the dummies that worked there at the time had the trem at a 34 degree angle and the little saddle blocks were in upside-down and backwards, even though it was supposed to be brand new. (It was made the same year I bought it).

Now it's a decent guitar, but it's definately been worn over the years. Not much meat left in the frets around the 9th-15th, and the trem is worn out. I played that thing as my main guitar from 1996-2002 or so. I haven't played it for awhile now, because it's in need of some TLC.

My first seven was a RG7420 Black Pearl. I bought it new when they first came out. I still have it but, the trem blows ass. So I'm gonna swap the neck to a 7620 body I have. I love that neck, it feels better than any of my other sevens, even the prestige neck on my 1527.

One of those cheap AX7whatevers, in that horrible green color. I hated just about everything about that guitar, and sold it three weeks later when I bought the Stars Soloist.

I borrowed an RG7420 for like 7 months, and i've borrowed tons of others for short bouts of time but i've clearly had to give them back.
Then in august i bought an S7320. which still hasnt come in
so i guess my RG7620 is the first one i actually owned and was in my possesion

My first seven is my rg7321. bought it at a steal, the shop was selling it at 50% discount. loved the neck width 'cos it was soooo comfy and wondered why i didnt buy sevens earlier.

My first seven was some piece-of-shit J&D that was simply marked "SEVEN STRING GUITAR!!!!!" on the wall, lowered from $1200 to $700 to $350 due to no-one in my tiny town knowing who Korn was and therefore not caring Words could not describe how poor an instrument this thing was. It was my first guitar, too, so it jacked up my learning process for a hell of a long time. I kinda made up for it with my second guitar, a UVMC I scored for $875, but I knew even less than I do now and, because it was ugly and sounded like shit through my Peavey Bandit () I took to it with a bastard file, scraped the paint off down to the wood and still managed to shift it for $1K. Since then I've owned a DR7, a 7321 and the 007 Elite I own now. Either the AG07 or the S7320 are next. Huzzah.
