So..im probably ordering a Loomis FR later tonight...

Stealthtastic · 04-24-2008, 11:20 PM

Alright guys, dispel my fears, right now i own an Ibanez ARC300, (its a 6'er), and i have a massive fear of the Loomis having a neck way to big for me =(.

If anyone has tried the ARC300 as well as the Loomis can they let me know how the necks stack up against each other? Also is $899 a good price for one?

ohio_eric · 04-24-2008, 11:28 PM

$899 is about the going price for one. The neck isn't that big at all. I've seen a few Ibanez players play my Loomis and none have complained about the neck.

Get the hardtail!

Don't listen to the heretic! Get the FR. IF you need a hard tail you can always get a Tremol-No. Then it's like two guitars in one.

The Loomis is the only Schecter 7 without the baseball bat neck. It isn't Ibanez thin, but it is not huge. Far more Jackson like, with a nice round C profile.

I dont think you will be dissapointed if you get a loomis.

I love mine.And i think the brotherhood will agree..
allthough i see there may be a split forming...

F.R vs hardtail...

Yeah so im probably ordering from DCGL, and buying it for 999, good deal? It comes with a case so yea

budda · 04-25-2008, 12:22 AM

He didn't for mine it cost 90 dollars extra for the case. The site was confusing it had "priced less case" but it wasn't included just priced 10 dollars cheaper.

I checked at every Schecter dealer in Minnesota and no one had one.
