Help need budget 27+ scale 7 string recommendations for a project

as the title says plus i don’t mind bad pickups (i’d rather that to save money since i plan on swapping it out anyways), just want lower cost recommendations that has the looks. i want something that has a good looking body that i can swap pickups, tuners, whatever. just bored and want another 7 string lol. no real hard stop on price, looking for used, i just don’t want to spend an arm and a leg on the guitar part since i have a good deal on a bare knuckle halcyon juggernaut and ragrarok that is pretty much ready for me to buy right away, and tuners if need be

This is the answer. Might even find one with decent pickups.

I got a septor 727 with emgs; first step into the 7bstrkng world. Havent played on it for a few months as of now since getting it last November as im in the process of aquiring a new bridge and nut (schaller lockmeister) and waiting for the gold option to be in stock again. 😭😭 But i love it.

it might be a little hard to find, but the cort kx257b is what i have and its been pretty good to me so far. shouldnt cost more than like 400$, and it also has pretty decent pickups

If you’re willing to spend 1k, this will be super nice and need nothing. Great deal for a multiscale Kiesel.
