My Xiphos 7-string (High Res Pics Galore, Be Patient)

My Ibanez XPT707 came yesterday. It's a really sweet guitar, a lot better than I thought it would be. It plays and sounds really nice, and I love the way it looks in person. Another nice touch is it's relatively light-weight. Excellent fretwork, no flaws. I'm not too sold on the bridge yet, but we'll see.

On to the pics...

I Really Like Ibanez Seven String Guitars

Origanally posted by Variant - Pulled from the river Styx, the mighty black oar of doom in hand! I certainly would not call this particular guitar an "axe" more like a club. Whereas Noodles' KxK would run through an emo, spilling his insides for a quick death, this blunt mace would bludgeon the unfortunate effeminate soul, breaking bones, bruising muscle, and causing internal bleeding to lead only to a slow, painful death

Is it neck heavy when playing standing up? Looks like the strap buttons are in the same place as the 6er.


Still, looks nice. Definitely better than the Ibanez shots of it.

It's not too bad, I could play it at shows as is with no issues whatsoever. It's definitely perfect sitting down though.

I already have a set of Blackouts on hand if I want to swap, which I probably will. It sounds goos as is so far, but I won't get to give it the VHT test until tomorrow.

Yeah I didn't even notice my cat was sitting there at first
