this is actually the predecessor of the current esp vp-sl7. only difference is the string-thru-body. i will be all over it if she came with an ebony fretboard. so question is, should i be getting it?

WOW.

"Let me put Meshuggah's heaviness into perspective for you. Periphery's music is like having life altering sex with the hottest girl you've ever seen, their music IS that stimulating. Meshuggah's music is like being strapped to a chair, unable to move with your eyes taped open, and watching your entire family get run over by a tank, their music IS that powerful." - Some dude at youtube.

iirc, all viper sl7 have a bolt-on neck. i am thinking that a set neck in a offset sg-style body may not have the necessary support for the extra tension of a 7 with a 27" scale as opposed to a bolt-on. of course i may be wrong, but it seems like that is the most logical reason.

fwiw, even their m-7 has a bolt-on neck.
