| Not bad. Not sure I'd get one myself if I had the need of such a beast but, not bad.
Any particular reason / logic for getting another one? Especially one without a tremolo arm?! Would have thought that was standard for you B.
I like the simple selector switch and knobs seem more out the way which should be good? Not very keen on the "open-threading" string style of those types past the bridge and into the body. Then again I've never played one like that for ages so, perhaps it does something physically? | |

Then again I've never played one like that for ages so, perhaps it does something physically? Basically I needed a better spare 7 string to use for live. One that is easier to tune quickly (without having to faff around with a Floyd Rose bridge) I chose this ESP as it was my good Friend Mick Brush's (Magic Kingdom drummer/ Ex Orbeth) knowing what condition it was in. I 'm also not a fan of the open-threading string set up but for ease of use it's perfect. As for the trem I'll be using gauge 56 strings on this one so way more string bending. TBH it plays amazingly! the neck is so sweet! Believe it or not I think I can make it sound better that the pUniverse! The Seymour Duncan's also sing like crazy! Will be using this guitar on 'Mentalist' for sure! \m/\m/ | |
