![]() | N. ****ing. G. D. (lots of big pictures) So, if you saw my thread when I first joined here you'll know I purchased my first seven on e-bay last week. And it arrived today, in all it's FedEx splendor! I was at school and no one was home to sign for it, but apparently they make a habit of leaving $500 guitars on a porch for anyone to take ![]() Keep in mind my photography skills range from "simian" to "infant", so bear with me ![]() ****load of packing material: ![]() Gig bag: ![]() *epic music* ![]() Specs: RG7321 25.5" scale length Fixed bridge DiMarzio pickups: Air Norton 7 (neck) Blaze Custom (bridge) -kicks all kinds of ass ![]() FretFX LED's - side of fingerboard Petrucci vinyl decals ![]() The decals are alright. They're not professional, of course, but what more do you expect from stickers? (glorified stickers ) One of them has a bubble in it and the green face cuts in on the pickup cavity a bit (they're made for a six-string) but I'd rather have this than boring ol' black.![]() My personal favorite picture somehow despite my photography skills it turned out decent.![]() The light generator. Runs on AAAs ( ) and you can sorta see the yellow line on the edge of the fretboard. Basically a clear rubbery material that houses the LED's. There're two settings: high and low.![]() I went to the darkest room in my house (bathroom :P) and turned the lights on high to show off how bright they are. ![]() And finally, an out-of-focus shot of me with my new baby you can sorta see my room.![]() In summary, she plays amazingly. I feel much more comfortable on the seven neck than my sixes, though it's a little too thin and flat for me. The lights and decals just serve to make it unique and wonderful. DiMarzio pickups sound great: there's just enough contrast between the neck and bridge to give a variety of tones without one overshadowing the other. The only flaw I've noticed is a bubble in one of the decals and some buzzing around the 22nd fret. Overall it's a great purchase: she might just become my main guitar ![]() |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Interesting, it's got the blade switch instead of the Dimarzio Part #EP1111. Is that a standard IBBY JPM, or an RG7620 that's had the Jemsite applique' put on it? EDIT: Duhhhh, just noticed the back of the headstock saying 7321 & the string thru non-trem bridge. |
