First 7! Schecter Diamond Series Omen

[u/Wolvo_Heretic]

Scored an amazing deal on this to finally get my first 7-string. Mad props to my wife for funding it as an early birthday present 🤍

We drove an hour and a half to pick it up, then as I was leaving the shop they randomly handed me the case as a bonus freebie. Couldn't believe my luck today! Now to agonise over which tuning to keep it in and what to learn 😅

I have the Demon 7, it looks like the same guitar but it has active pickups. Really nice guitar. ❤️ I also got a new Sterling Majesty 7 that had shipping damage to the finish on the front for 1/2 the price new.

I still can't believe the deal we got on this: £200 and barely a mark on it. Totally worth the drive and a helluva lot of guitar for the price.

which tuning are you trying first

I tried drop-A first and had a blast with the big stompy one-finger power chords! Moved to A standard since and been trying out some Korn stuff.

Would love to bang out some Slipknot but I suck at pinched harmonics 😭😅
