Need opinions on my next 7

nitelightboy · 02-03-2006, 09:28 AM

Ok, so now that I'm going through a minor depression, I feel it's time to purchase another 7 sting to make me feel better. I'm having some trouble deciding though. I'm looking at a few options.

1. New Ibanez RG1527
2. Used Ibanez 7620 or 7420
3. Schecter Hellraiser C-7
4. Schecter Damien 7

Of course stock pups would most likely be modded and what not. I prefer fixed bridges to locking trems, but am considering having one 7 string that locks. Also, I've alsways been an Ibanez guy, but have played some Schecter 6 strings and have liked them, but can't find a store or any buddies with their 7 strings. Another reason I'm considering the Schecter's is the extended scale on them, they're both 26.5". And I've wondered about 7 string EMG's, the HellRaiser has them and the Damien can just swap them in without routing......

I dunno. Everytime I lean one way, something grabs me that pulls me neutral again. I play metal, mainly rhythm. I'm learning lead and trying hard to get my shred up to par with some of the fools here.

Why are you going through a depression? Buying a new guitar is a mighty expensive way to make yourself feel better!

nitelightboy · 02-03-2006, 09:53 AM

Yeah, but I'm like a chick like that. Whenever I feel down I have to buy something, so I think I should buy another 7

Plus I want to take pictures of me opening a box to put on here, I'm jealous thta I really haven't been able to do that with a new(er) guitar

You know what I'm going to say.

I'm going to be a Hellraiser fanboi for the next 6 months.

So:

"Yo, get the Hellraiser!".

You're no help

I've really been considering the HellRaiser, just so I'd have an excuse to go raise hell.

I do the exact same thing whenever I get screwed over by a girl. The last one cost me a PWH, lol - the CST could arguably be her fault, too, but it was really more that I wanted it.

Do the Hellraiser. Why? Sexy quilted top, gorgeous finish, XL-scale goodness, and besides I'm going to own one before the year is out, too, so then you can be nearly as cool as your moderators.

Although, if you like floating trems, a 1527 is tough to beat...

The Dark Wolf · 02-03-2006, 10:27 AM

I think a piezo-ified Hellraiser may be in my future, too. I've been lusting for EMG's for too long.

I'd say the HR, NLB. Heh... good one, BTW. Go rasie some hell, heh.

I have a radical idea. The door swings both ways, we could reverse the particle flow through the gate. We'll cross the streams.
