They have another one I think, looks much better

I think it looks nice, it would be cool to see someone here grab it.

Why doesn't Warmoth offer necks that are of a decent scale? 25 is too short, 28.5 is way too long.

i dont think the scale would bother me and besides if PRS uses that length then it should be fine.

It would WORK... but the question is, is it optimum? PRS uses that scale for 6-strings, and even then PRS guitars are not renowned for their bite or attack, or for clarity.

The problem comes with having that short scale with a 7. It just doesn't reproduce the low fundamentals really well. Sure, it would work, it just is not really the best scale length for a 7.

Zebrawood =

25 scale =

Anyone know if the actual PRS 7s are the same scale?

If their necks were 25.5" to 26.5", I'd own 6 by now. ok, maybe not 6, but you get the idea.

What is odd is that all of their guitar necks for 6's are 25.5 (with the exception of the baritone and short-scale stuff). Why they chose 25" for their standard 7 is just perplexing.

Put a capo on the second fret of a 28 5/8" scale neck and you've got a 25.5" scale guitar.

With the fret markers in the wrong places.

I wish i knew why they tooled up for making 7-string necks ONLY in the 25" scale.

The official reason they haven't introduced a 25.5" is, get this, they sell so few 25" and 28.5" seven string necks that they don't think it'd be cost-effective to introduce another scale option.
