yo bro..

when you buy a 7 string.it is most likely you are going to be changing your tuning once in a while thats why i don't recoment a 7 stringer with a floyd

-ibanez out...

i don't really like the idea of LTD because most of the time they supply agathis ..

LTD out

Grassroots seem to be the best.it is made in Japan isn't it ?

anyway..why don't you try this

http://www.music123.com/Schecter-C7-Blackjack-Electric-Guitar-i128513.music

this would cost around 2k+...you get a seymour duncan JB/59 set..
awesome deal

you can try to call ironwood (they are still the distributors) for it or the guitar store ..

if not i would recoment you to go singapore

dude, ko ader universe?!!! wah... ehem, yg 7321 tu xnak tolak kat aku ker... Very Happy

x silap aku RG7321 tu rm1800-2200 gak lah... xder beza sgt, and its korean made, with 5 piece maple neck...

ok so, kalo nak dibandingkan drp segi spec, aku rasa viper tu mmg menang besar, kalah RG1527.... the RG pun standard tuner gotoh x silap aku, i read about it kat mana ntah, 2006 nyer prestige sumer pakai tuners gotoh... but viper comes with stock EMG pups... hm2...

do i need a trem...? soalan nie pun bermain di fikiran aku...


Aiyoo...aku x pernah ade gitar2 tu, aku pernah main je, hehe. Tp dulu aku main pon mcm gitar tu aku yg punyer, dpt belasah kaw2, huhu... Razz

Specs mmg la viper menang besar, pickups dah la EMGs, obviously hardware lain pon high end gak tu. But u'd also pay the price for that. Gotoh tuners on Ibanez is not that bad, personally i dont think it can get any better, esp with the locking tuners & all. Schecters r great axes dude, the one gapster suggested is a great model. Maybe its withing ur budget, kalo ade kat sini, tp kalo kena order through the store or kat internet, kena consider shipping & taxes gak la...

Cheers... Cool

Hey fazrul kalo hang nak 7 string yang murah sket hang cari la kat Doremi ade BC Rich Virgin 7 sebijik... Harga baru RM1,550 tapi pakai fixed bridge la... pickup switch die pon toggle je, takde yg blade switch...

Aku nye 7 string aku cadang tahun depan aku angkat LTD sebijik... Kat GuitarCollection One Utama ade jual sebijik harga RM3,290 jek...

Tapi kalo hang nak yg dalam list tuh aku rekomen hang amik LTD tu la... Lagi berbaloi dari amik Ibanez. Sebab ape:

LTD pakai Licensed Floyd Rose, Ibanez pakai Ibanez nye whammy bar... Tak berapa sedap bagi aku... hehe... Lagipon itu hari aku test yg LTD tuh feel die best gak, yg Ibanez tuh aku tak try lagi sebab ade sesetengah staff kat Bentley yang kedekut taknak bagi test... Very Happy

whoa2, stop jap, first of all, the LTD viper407 does NOT come with agathis body, its mahogany. kalo low end nyer mmg la agathis, but the one aku list nie body mahogany, so...

second, grassroot is NOT japan made, its korean, dan kualiti dier x cun mana, harga plak mahal... why? aku dah tgk dedua gtr, and IMO, grassroot < ibanez RG1527.

but grassroot nyer sound not bad lah... cumer hardware dan finish jer g aku x berkenan... 2 cents.

thanks buddy!

tapi aku x brape minat dgn design BC rich... kalo aku minat, dah lama aku sambar kat DoReMi tu, rm1500 jerk kan? aku lebih kat bentuk ala2 strat... super strat...

the one i've listed xder whammy bar, stop tailpiece jerk... from what i heard, ibanez whammy bar isnt that bad, its pretty great actually...

but still, the LTD sure is a bargain... dgn features dier sumer... 50/50 lah antara LTD dgn RG tuh... hehehe

hm, kat mana ko try LTD seven strings tuh...? aku check kat kedai, xder pun viper 407 tuh... ko try LTD ker, grasroot?

kekekekek, ko kene dress up smart skit bila p bentley, baru diorg bagi try, heehehehe. cumer ko chat dgn staff melayu kat bentley, diorg mungkin boleh bagi try... Very Happy

i duno.i got a friend in jamtank who owns a grassroot 6 stringer ( horizon copy) it was MIJ ..around Rm2.7 i think..maybe some is MIJ some MIK..i duno..

anyway the Viper is 4k++ ?
yeah actually the specs looks cool..where is it made ah ?
( no offense but..i think i would rather a MIA for RM4k (non 7 stringla) ) Very Happy

hm, maybe grassroot ader byk edition like ibanez's... the one i tried out is a korean made. member ko punyer tu neck thru eh? rase penah jumper kat GC...

but still, eventho the grassroot nyer kuality IMO bad, but neck feel, berat dan sound dier sedap...

i think i'm being left out after 20 hours not loging in Razz

mcm perli aku je "no BCRs"... hehehe

bg aku... i prefer the LTD MH. though it may be made from an agathis, if the sound's good, why bother what it's made of (except when you're planning to change the PUs of coz). tp aku mmg xsuke blade switch tuh

schecter pon ok gak, though i never tested one before, tapi bro ridzi pakai gitar schecter die dulu aku dgr ok gak.

skrg ni bnyk gitar diorg xkasi try dah... mcm dulu jackson yg tergantung tu aku rilek je angkat try... tp skrg diorg dh letak "no testing" la plak...

which 7's u want to buy is your choice bro, but make sure you know where to get the strings. bentley ade jual 10-56 guage, tapi kalau 7th tu nk tebal skit bleh beli 0.10 set ngan extra 0.58. 58 is the thickest they sell in bentley. kat doremi diorg jual d'adario, but 0.52 is way too thin for the 7th is you tune it to B. kalau guage lain plak diorg xjual...
