Your first 7 was?

What was your first 7? Did you like it? How was it for you?

I liked my first 7 and still do. There are alot of nice 7s on here. -too many to choose from but I feel a guitar has to be special to that person too. Like my arctic white RG 7620. I feel that since I kept it and still have it, it is special.

I bought this guitar brand new in May 1998. It's been through alot with me and it's very sentimental. Which makes me believe that for a first 7, perfect!

In 2002, I had the guitar refinished in arctic white~















I decided to get it refinished again because it got beat up quite a bit.

Jackson DR7 was nice at the time - but never got it set up properly and I couldn't do shit myself so I sold it. Im sure with some EMGs in there that thing would have been killer.

tis a wonderful RG you have, Shawn.

My first (and only) 7 is my C7 blackjack. I like how it only ran me $270 shipped . I still need to get a case for it though . This guitar fits me like a glove - very comfy neck, similar to my les paul. the weight and size make it feel very solid, which i prefer in a guitar. The SD's in here give me a wide range of tones, and i enjoy that i can get a single-coil tone out of this guitar!

right now im trying to set it up to eliminate some fretting out and fret buzz, but it looks like i'll be takin 'er in soon enough

3 cheers for free gear!

My first was an RG7620. It was FANTASTIC, I'm an idiot for selling it.

It would have been 2005/6, with my Rg7420. Still have it, love it to bits, and I'll never ever sell it.

The neck on it is the best I have EVER played, and really doesn't compare to any of the seven's I have played since by any manufacturer.

my first seven was a B.C. Rich Warlock 7 USA. great guitar, got a lot of recording and live use out of it for a few years. eventually i ended up prefering superstrat like sevens and the warlock wasn't getting much play anymore. i ended up selling it a few months back to Fox Zero who seems to love it, and it's actually his first seven as well.

Mine was a Rg7620 in royal blue. I bought it brand new when the 7620's came out and still have it. I love that thing to death.

Sad to say it but it was a Dean Avalance 7. i seriously owned it for like 2 weeks before i was like "wow this guitar is a piece of shit" and took it back. the woods were all crap, the pickups sounded like ass, and it didnt even play well. i should have known better for a $200 guitar, even if it was used. i kinda forgot about 7s for a while after that till i got into a rut and went to the local Guitar Center and picked up a 7321. it played a lot better despite the fact that i hate Wizard and Wizard 2 necks, but i couldn't see putting $200 of work into a $400 guitar to make it sound good. :-( hopefully Mr. Sherman and i get some thing worked out soon. i just have to call him when he is around.
