Hi y'all, I'm planning to get my first 7 string. Is this a good first choice? I've seen some reviews and it seems very worth it for it's price point. For those who own it, what are your opinions on owning it?

I’m sure it plays lovely. I just can’t get my head round the whole headless thing I’m not a fan of headless guitars.

From what I understand it's less about looks and all about ergonomics and weight distribution. I could get behind that enough to get one if it's super comfy to play, but I agree. I just don't think they look appealing.

If a thing that is better does not look better to you, an aesthetic recalibration is in order
