![]() ![]() | New Guitar Dilemna So I've got a decision to make here really soon. Either I keep my original track and pre-order the Agile 8 string, or order a Gary Kramer F1 7 string. Pics of the Kramer in question: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I'm just trying to figure out if I'd ever even get the use out of 36 frets or not. The whole design intrigues me, but I just don't know if I ever got rid of it if I'd get screwed on the resale (probably would). I'll only have a 72 hour approval period if I do decide to order it. Whatchu guys think? Oh, and it's only a couple hundred bucks difference between the two. ![]() I'm about as cool as a fart in a space helmet. ![]() |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | those kramers look insanely comfortable, and pretty cool imo. I personally wouldnt use the 36 frets, but i could use up to 27 or so comfortably, and that thing is just disgustingly awful. Whats gonna help you with what you want to do more, the frets/comfort, or the 8 string?

![]() | Seriously, just go with the 8 string. Having an 8 string is like the benefits of moving to a 7 from a 6 allover again. Remember how good all those extra notes at the bottom, and the greater range in single positions felt when you were no longer limited like you were on a 6? Getting an 8 is like that feeling all over again. They really are truly bloody great! Besides, that 7 looks like some crappy bannana contraption, and when was the last time you saw people actually able to play the upper register? Michael Manring has a 36 "fret" bass (although not really since its fretless) but even he admits that other than sliding up to single notes, the upper register gets little to no use, since even on a bass it's just too fiddly to actually play. |
