Now THAT'S a neat concept!

looks cool and kinda rare, but I have to say I didnt really get where exactly that 7th string (its only a resonating string, right?) runs... its nowhere visible in any of the pictures. can someone enlighten me on how exactly those work?

It doesn't have one of the strings on there, looks like its been used as a 6 stringer, but its a 7 string, just look at the board and the top right tuner.

hmmm, thats right, the board looks pretty wide for 6 strings but that bridge looks like it only has 6 holes, too? or am I just too blind? (well, I know I am, but still...)

It looks like someone replaced the bridge and nut with a 6-string version. I'd check with the seller to see if he has the original parts, since I bet they're impossible to come by.

was thinking something along those lines. looks like there is lots of space between the fretboards edge and the lowest string so I thought it MIGHT be a 7-string nut (no good pic of the nut there) and a 6-string bridge or something.

the guitar is kinda cool though. its something pretty unusual at the very least as far as 7s go

Pretty cool.
