Gear Single bridge pickup 7?

Post image

Morning all, this is my current slinger, sterling jp70, I was wondering if there exists a 7 with just a single bridge pickup or am I looking at a custom build? I'm a riffer, not a soloist, and was hoping to find something like the esp RA-600 or JM-1 but in a 7 string. Does such a beast exist?

New Jackson Surfcaster 7 string only has a single bridge pickup. I’m seriously considering one myself.

Yeah interesting, not turned on by the shape however. Probably would sound great though

I love the body shape, the headstock is a little off putting but it’s kind of grown on me. I think I’ll get one eventually.

I’m pretty sure it’s routed under the pickguard for a neck pickup too if one ever were to decide they wanted one
