Getting a 7 string today

it has a emg 707 active set. the pickups are in bass housing so i don't think i can change them if i wanted to

That looks like a pretty decent guitar. I have a mahogany Ibanez 7-string with a hard-tail bridge and it's the only guitar I own now. It takes a little adjustment but now I can't play a regular six-string without it feeling like a toy.

Hardly a "phase". I've had mine for years. I don't have it to play "heavy" because I really don't care for heavy music. I like being able to pull out piano-style chords on the thing and cool inversions.dan wrote:i went through the 7 string phase just like everyone else did about 4 years ago, i still own mine, but guitars have 6 strings

Yeah, I hate that shit, what's the point if you only use three strings? Just tune down.dan wrote:well if you can play it thats cool, there have been many guitarists only using them for the first 3 strings and image.
i have seen some awesome 7 string players, Steve Vai rules, 11 string basses look interesting.
i
I tune mine to outrageous open tunings and use traditional chord grips to play weird chords.

that is a beautiful fucking guitar
I play a 6 string detuned two and a half steps with the low string dropped to A. I love tuning down like that because we play a lot of single note riffs, but I miss having the higher range for leads. I've been seriously considering trying a 7 string, but I can't afford to at this point.

My next step is to get a 7 string with a floyd on it.

I have an LTD H-207 in transparent black, I'd like to replace the pickups with some SD 7-string Customs or Invaders, but it's a killer player with great tonal possibilities with the right pickups...

Korn sounds like shit. I almost use no bass on the seven at all. No need to.
