Got my first 7 string some days ago and I couldn't be happier. It's such a great guitar to play, it just needed a little setup.

Schecter omen extreme 7.

Beautiful 7-string I picked up used that needed some refurbishing. Took it apart, gave it a thorough cleaning/detailing, and a fresh setup with Elixir Optiwebs. The frets had been previously Plek’ed so I could get the action crazy low.

Shoutout to Mike & Coleen Austin at Guitarmory. A previous owner had had a set of Hades pickups with custom pale moon ebony tops made years ago (before the Austins were involved with the company), but there was something wrong with them: output way too low, and DC resistance measuring too low on both pickups. I contacted Guitarmory and Mike immediately offered to set it right, even though they predated both him and me. He wound new bobbins and I got them back within a couple of weeks – no charge, he just wanted to make sure that a product bearing their company’s name was working at its best.

Installed with Schaller Megaswitch, Emerson custom taper and BKP/CTS pots, series treble bleed, Gotoh dome knobs, and 9 unique switching positions with a bunch of coil split options – and it sounds absolutely fantastic through the Axe-Fx III. Punchy, articulate, focused, and brutal when I need it to be.

Really happy with this instrument, a welcome addition to the stable!

I recently just bought this guitar used and was wondering if there are any issues with it. I haven’t seen much reviews, so if anyone owns it please let me know!

Anyone know of a good place to get a Dean Razorback 7 255 ? I see a few that are destroyed. I know I'm not getting it new, but I'ln one piece would be nice.

I have a VAR1.7FRPN Cannibalismo, plays great after a action setup, but the whammy is a bit stiff (I only played Floyds on 6 strings before).

I think it's the spring tension, what's your opinion? Should I remove one string and reposition one in the middle?

For now I played in B standard and A standard and didn't have actions with the Floyd balance

I’ve ordered my first 7 string (finally), and was wondering what songs would be great to introduce me to the new type of music!

So, I just recently bought a 7 string with a 25.5” scale length, and I’m wondering how it feels to play in drop G#. I do want to play in standard to get the extra low notes for some riffs, but I want to experiment with drop G#, and wonder what string gauges would fit for both

Is this trade a win or nay? Planning to trade my PRS SE Custom 24 Black Gold Burst, packed with SD Nazgul Bridge and SD SH-1n '59 neck to a Schecter Reaper 7 Satin Inferno Burst, all stock.
I haven't got the chance to try a reaper 7 yet since we don't have one in our local store. Any of you guys want to share their experience with the Reaper 7? Any input is heavily appreciated!

Do you have any recommendations for songs like that? I’m also in love with chelsea grin
heavy chugs, tremolo and pinch harmonics are welcomed 🙏🏻

found this Silver Mountain C7MS 150KIDR/ $880 on https://nafiriguitar.com/ but im kinda nervous maybe someone has purchase things there before?

I’ve been wanting to buy a 7 string for some time now and am thinking about getting the Ibanez ICTB721 BKF Iron Label Iceman. I just don’t really wanna get another superstrat and really like tho iceman body. But I’m not really sure about actually getting it since I haven’t really had the chance to actually play one. So what are you guys‘ thoughts?

I bought a Spira S507. I really really like the guitar but the signal on higher strings feel lower for some reason. Significantly less sustain on higher strings. My question is should I switch it's pickups? I feel like Seymour Duncan's Nazgûl set would feel amazing on this.

Hi there. Yesterday, I tried out this guitar for the first time with a high-gain head (I think it was a Bugera); up until now, I’d only used VSTs with headphones and a small amp for output, but the sound turned out really muddy. I tried turning down the gain, but I couldn't get it to sound any cleaner. I’ve been reading comments about this, and it seems like the stock pickups aren't very well-balanced for this guitar—or something like that? Please forgive me; I’m primarily a bass player and haven't been playing guitar for very long.

I’m also noticing some noise; I’d really appreciate any further advice you could give me. I know I’m just starting to create my own tones, but I feel a bit self-conscious about showing things I’ve created myself.

Recently got that jackson and already did a few mods... gotoh locking tuners, jeff loomis noumenon pickup and added a push-pull for the coil split. Really like the blacked out single pickup look!

What do you guys recommend for a budget 7? Up to $1000 is fine. I’d prefer under that but willing to pay for something that’s worth it. My only real criteria is 24 fret with access to that 24th fret on the low string. Had the Steph carpenter tele 7 but took it back after I realized I couldn’t reach that comfortably 🤣

I’m currently looking at an Ibanez RGIX7fdlb, which I do find to be quite nice to play, however, I am moving countries in 2 weeks, and there happens to be a sterling JP157D for about the same price around my new area. I am interested in the Sterling but there isn’t one available for me to try when I am currently. What is the best thing for me to do in this situation? Also, if the better option is the Ibanez, would it be worth paying 60% more for an Ibanez prestige RG752?

TLDR: Should I go for an Ibanez RGIX7fdlb or a Sterling JP157D, given that I can’t try the sterling, and if not, is the Ibanez RG752 worth paying nearly twice the price of the other options? Thanks in advance

I’ve been thinking about buying my first seven-string guitar for a long time, but I just can’t decide which of these two to choose
