Real Name: Steve Main Seven: COW7, SC207 Rig: Laney VC50+BM Thanked: 21
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | The SC207 is a pretty decent 7. I don't like it as much as my COW 7 but it's still good and the pickups are fairly decent. Very comfortable to play looks pretty cool. I got mine for about £450ish but I've seen them recently for £340 "Thank you boob lady!" - Homer Simpson, the Simpsons Movie |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | James, you should take a look at this eBay store: eBay Store - STRINGS AND THINGS GUITAR WHOLESALE: GUITARS, CASES The shipping is free worldwide on the Schecters, and I didn't pay any customs taxes for my Loomis when I ordererd there, and a friend also told me he didn't pay anything too. You will surely score one for cheap there ![]() |

![]() ![]() | Well, like everyone else said, I would go for a C-7 Hellraiser, preferrably in Black Cherry. The ATX would be sick too, but the neck is thicker than a C-7. |

![]() I've played my Gryphon, a Hellraiser, and a Blackjack... No difference in the neck. (Besides the fact my gryphon is bolt on and has a satin neck.) Ignorance is not bliss. Ignorance only hides the truth. And the longer that truth has to hide, the more it stings when it makes itself known. http://www.sevenstring.org/forum/gen...ml#post1166807 Buy my sunglasses! | |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I think blackjacks are better because they have binding, preference is the difference. All schecters are basically the same quality. |

![]() | HellRaisers have the abalone binding and EMG-TWs (tappable EMGs) while the BlackJacks have Duncan Blackouts and more traditional multi-ply binding. I really like the Black Cherry quilt finish you can get on Hellraisers. |

Hellraisers: All mahogany (maple top on the BCH), EMG 707-TW pickups, abalone headstock and body (no neck ) binding and inlays.Blackjack: Mahogany with maple neck, traditional binding, Duncan JB/Jazz pickups Blackjack ATX: Mahogany with maple neck and ebony board, aged binding and Duncan Blackout pickups. That should help, don't know about the blackjacks, but the neck on the Loomis is different from the Hellraisers. If I were you, I'd take the aged black ATX. Cheaper than a Hellraiser and if their finish is as smooth as the satin on the Loomis, it will be damn nice ![]() | |
