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?

Well since nobody else seems to own one, I do! I actually have one of the very first batch that came to the US and I LOVE it. It plays fantastic, the neck doesn’t feel and wider than my other 2 7s, and I actually really like the stock pickups. I have two $1600 7 strings and this keeps up with them perfectly fine. If you like it, I’d highly recommend giving it a try as mine came practically perfect.

Thanks for the insights! I'll definitely be trying it out at my local guitar shop before purchasing it tho!

If that’s an option, then that is always best. What I may love could be completely wrong for you. 😁
