Well i can only comment on the Hellraiser. I owened one the neck was a touch thick some dont like that i didnt mind it as i have big hands. What led me to getting rid of it though was actually the scale 26.5. It actually started to wear on my hands after awhile and would mess up me going to my regular scale 6's. I did like the EMGs and i had put Blackouts in it before i got rid of it that i liked also.
Its up to you in the end. I myself am considering the Xiphos for my next 7
