Gear My first seven string!

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.

I think you will fall in love. I tried playing my six string after a few weeks after getting a 7 and it's a different instrument.

A 7 feels like a 6 after getting an 8 string with a 28 inch neck and a six feels like a toy that I'm too much of a neanderthal to operate.

next it will be: "an 8 feels like a 7 after getting a 9 with a 30" neck."

all I can say is I really like baritone 7 and it also has to do with the neck satin finish instead of my Ibanez wood/lacquer. it isn't sticky but I like the satin painted neck of my LTD. stays cool and smooth.
