First time poster here and if it gets tossed I apologize. I’m a brand new owner of a Schecter KM7 mk iii standard and it is my favorite guitar and it feels like it actually gonna stay on my collection (been through 10 guitars this year on my search for the best 7) I love missing my guitars but...
NGD!
Aristides 070
This thing is killer, hipshot hardware and fishman fluence modern pickups.
For those who aren't familiar with Aristides, there's no wood on this guitar at all, it's made of a composite of materials and filled with a material called Arium that makes it sonically amazing...
So after years of wanting, waiting and ogling the Ibanez RGD range I FINALLY managed to pick up one up basically for nothing. I say that because the asking price was $400AUD. I had an Ibanez ARZ307 that was simply sitting there not being played anymore because I found the body to small for me...
So, a few days ago I received this beauty, the Schecter KM-7!
Really excited with this one. A long time ago that I don't like Schecters, however this one caught my attention, primarily because of the specs and also because it's the signature model from Keith Merrow, an awesome guitarist...
I know, I know, this topic has been discussed far too many times over several different threads, but I wasn't able to get an exact answer without speculation!
I decided to go ahead and take the plunge after comparing my measurements of my older Ibanez fixed bridge and those of the Hipshot...
As title states I have a 7620 neck and want to carve me up a body to accompany.
Details are still in the works with planning and all but I'm looking to use a fixed bridge as I don't wank to much on the floyd these days.
Hipshot is the brand I'm specifcally looking at.
My question is this...
Soon I will have a 7 string custom made guitar. I would like it to have an EBMM JP7 tremolo, but that is not possible. So I am thinking about going with hipshot.
How does the US contour tremolo compare to the EBMM JP7 tremolo in terms of action, finish, durability, return to pitch accuracy...
After months of waiting, it has arrived!...
