On the plus side let me give you the background on how it came about.....driving to pick up some wiring for a fixture from a vendor when low and behold in a garage sale sitting on a stand I saw this out of the corner of my eye.....

Talked the women down from 140.00 to 120.00 making this the cheapest and most badass 7 String I have ever bought.....if you look hard enough they are out there
Dude - are you kidding me? That is worse than stealing candy from a baby....worse even That is a killer story. Good things happen to those who wait. Have fun and enjoy!

S guitars are nice (can't play them sitting down though - the teeny sides cut off circulation to my legs) Great find!

That is something I definetly might consider let me sit on this for a few days or so and get a feel for it as I have played a few of these, and this one has some super special mojo to it and feels nicer than it probably should hahaha.....new pics in a minute or two when they finish uploading

Wow what a a score!!
The one thing that never looks right to me with these is that the high E string looks dangerously close to the edge of the fret board.
any problems with it pulling off while your playing?

I play ridiculously low action and even shredding and ripping the whammy havent had a problem at all today...I had the fortunate expierience of learning how to set up a tremolo from one of the best luthiers in the business who showed me a few "secrets" to get that low action throughout the neck without problems when really abusing the bar.....

It comes from the height of the pins and putting them in so the trem sits slightly at an angle and isnt quite even with the action being ever so slightly higher on the lower string (think one or two turns higher)

Doesnt seem like much but really works with my style.....play around on it and PM me if you have difficulty with it
