Was just looking around and it appears that SweetWater USA has the RG3727FZ! Really amazing that they were able to get those European market RG 7 strings and sell them here. Props to them. Flame top, Edge Zero 7 w/ ZPS, Mahogany (or it it basswood? Sweet water has both listed on their specs...
Sounds about right; a lot of people don't seem to care for trems anymore. I am a bit disappointed that the S5570Q does not have a 7 string variant though -- even with the LoPro Edge, I would still buy it. I just love that purple \ grey quilt top, and I've been dying to get an S series Prestige...
As much as I would fkn LOVE to see that as a production model, Ibanez still wouldn't be able to sell it in the USA due to the ZR2 bridge patent issue :( I think that's why they have scaled back the tremolo models to almost none on the Prestige lineup, especially 7 strings. The Edge Zero is...
Those are some great pics...unfortunately, it looks much better in the dark video than it does in the light ^_^ Looks too plain and boring...no binding and ugly headstock..oh well LTD EC-407 ftw i suppose...Thin-U neck, great binding, nice looking headstock... Just my opinion here but...
Cool, I may get some of the x's and try them out ^_^ Yeah, I really think the snakebyte is probably the best explorer-like guitar made today...it's got such a sweet look all over, and really stands out as being unique with the curves \ hooks plus the carve...I just wish it didn't cost so much...
For the price that the snakebytes go for, they should at least add a trem option and have neck binding ^_^ It's definitely one of, if not the best explorer-like guitars, but they jack the price up on it just because it's got hettfields name on it. I've played one and I was considering getting...
You're so lucky to be able to get the 4 knob ESP full thickness - it's such a beautiful guitar. I don't believe they're allowed to sell them in the USA but I could be wrong. Anyways, I absolutely LOVE it, along with the Snakebyte and the washburn too. I kinda wish they had a 7 string...
ARGH, I finally got around to installing the floyd upgrades brass block today -- had to take everything apart (scary for newb like me) -- and when I finally got it on and all the saddles back in place, I realized the tremol-no small clamp doesn't fit. BOLLOCKS! Gotta get the large clamp :(...
I bought the one tremol-no recommended for the edge pro -- the small clamp type. I just want to be able to access the two thumb screws and the deep C without unscrewing the tremolo cavity plate -- so you basically have to cut out a section of the cavity plate. I cut it out square -- but in the...
I'm so mad at myself -- I installed my tremol-no yesterday and then went to modify the cavity plate -- and totally screwed it up. Anyone know where I can get one that's pre modified -- in other words has a bigger hole so I can access the tremol-no thumb screws? Apparently I suck with a dremel...
Thanks for the suggestions, I'll check them out. The refinish looks BEAUTIFUL...wow.... Tell me about it...I got mine from a site that has a 5 payment plan with no interest...that was the only way I could afford it. Jebus knows I don't need another f'n credit card either, so I'm glad I...
Totally agree. I was considering the royal blue, but I think the galaxy white with maple fretboard is more distinctive and just looks amazing. My shitty camera does not do it justice: BTW, I just ordered some cool stuff :D I got the tremol-no small clamp, and I got a Brass Big...
My christmas present was the 1527 galaxy white -- I love it. I originally bought a Schecter Damien 7 elite FR and I hated it...returned it and decided to get this instead. So much better quality -- and the neck is perfect. Set me back a lot more than I was hoping on spending but it was worth...
Thanks -- I've just been reading some other threads and I may just exchange it for a Hellraiser C7 or C7 FR...a little bit more money but I think it may be better quality...I got 45 days to decide though so I'm gonna try this for a bit. The one large knot spot on the neck is def. noticable, but...
Is this normal or are they considered defects? Forgive me if this is a stupid question but I've never had a guitar with an unfinished neck before...my tele is neck thru and laquered. ImageShack Album - 3 images Forgive me for the crappy pics -- camera and lighting both are not good. I'll...
Hey sorry to hijack your thread but -- I'm also from Buffalo :) I saw this when I was going to post my intro thread...heh! I just got my first seven string today. It's a Schecter Damien 7 Elite FR. My main rig is a fender tele custom HH special (Fender Products: Special Edition Custom...
