So, to begin with, what you see is a blue Agile Interceptor Pro, and an Ibanez RG170 that I restomodded (I Floyd Rose swapped the RG, the Agile is 100% stock except for the pickups).
Initially, they were very reliable guitars, but both of them have started to have this problem where their...
I wanted to make this thread because I recently saw a raptor 7 on reverb that looks very nice
I can't afford it now but maybe in the future I might consider getting it if I ever want to commit financial suicide
In general I was wondering what people's experiences with the brand are like and...

Hey all,
A while back I released an alpha version of an Android app to calculate string tension based on your criteria (string type, scale, note, etc..). My ambition is to make it as intuitive as possible, and in time abstract the "science" behind it away as much as possible and...
I'm having my Agile 9 string multiscale setup and the tech and I are stumped. The high E string (and High b to some extent) aren't making contact with the roller, and instead are resting on the multiscale extenders of the kahler. We can't seem to raise the roller up without drastically changing...
Hi all,
I typically tune to EBEADGBE, and I've been experimenting with a .90 on the low E. I love the snappier tension, but I'm getting a lot of rattle at the bridge and nut and it sounds noticeably less bright than the rest of the strings. Are these problems normal for a string this size, or...
Hi guys, I might be able to secure my first ever 7 string - an Ibanez RGIR27BE Walnut Finish. The guitar is with EMGs, Tremolo and a Killswitch. My question is, can you swap the Killswitch for a Tone Knob ? If I manage to get the guitar, I want to install Fishman Moderns in it and since the...
Hey everyone,
So I've had my SVN for about two months and absolutely adore it. However, the largest string that the bridge will accept is around a .64, whereas I prefer a .68 or above. Are there any drop in saddles or replacement bridges that will accept a larger string? Thanks!
What's up guys!?
I'm not a 7-string owner yet but I'm looking at investing in a Schecter Keith Merrow KM-7 MK-III (Toxic Smoke Green)
If you have experience with these or have a different suggestion, please comment below!
Thanks, all! \m/
Hi all!
I need your help. I gave my sevenstring Jackson Pro HT7 (26.5" scale) to techs for adjustments. I asked them to propose a string set for a drop F# tuning (Deftones fan here). They put 6-string set of 11s and a 65 for the thickest string. But this one string sounds really bad, like a...
Hi fellas.
I'm having a small issue with my guitar, there are some days where the strings just go a tiny bit up because of temperture change or whatever, just a normal guitar thing. I tune down the string to standard pitch, the problem is, if I try bending the string right after this tuning...
Hello everybody! I would like to share with you all my latest video, about the Mercuriall SS-11X VST Plugin. I used my 7 string custom Jackson.
Please let me know what you think of it!
I'm looking for true impressions!
Hi everyone.
First of all, :imnew: but i want to share a table i made in order to pick the set you might need for the tuning you want.
You'll find string set recommandations for:
- 24.75" neck
- 25.5" neck
- 26.5" neck
- tuning going from E standard to Drop F.
You can find the table here...

Hello sevenstring fanatics
I've been looking to install a Tremol-no in my 7 String Majesty. Do any of you guys have experience with that? I'd love to hear what you have to say about it.
I think it needs the Pin-Type tremol-no, but will it also work for the 7 string bridge?
Sorry if this...
Brief & Accurate Description of gear/guitar:
Selling my EMG 808x soapbar set in mint condition. They came out of my Strandberg which I upgraded the pickups to a 57/66 set. I'm including the wiring packs that came with my upgraded pickup set when I bought them. They are in like new condition and...
Hi everyone ! I'm proud to show you the result of my hard work on my RG8 ! I really like this guitar, it's well made, the stock playability is good, but it looks and sounds really boring. So I decided to turn it into an 8-string that could be used in every kind of project (other than metal)...
So today I picked up an ISP Decimator G-String (the original one, not the II.)
Got it for free so I can't complain, seems to do a decent job of eliminating preamp gain-induced hiss. The problem is, using the Decimator in the loop results in a noticeable drop in volume vs having nothing in the...
True Believers and Floyd Rose Fanatics! The new episode of This is Why You Suck is just for you! Ever wanted to rip your hair out while trying to change tunings or string gauges on your tremolo-equipped guitar? Boy do i ever have a cool trick for you. Using my method, you'll be able to change...
Ive been playing my 7 string in drop C (GCGCFAD). I plan on keeping this tuning for a while, so Im gonna go get my guitar setup properly for this tuning this week.
My guitars scale length is 26.5".
Any recommendations on string gauges? Im specifically looking for recommendations for the...
TL;DR
Don't buy any guitar with the zero point system in it if you want to use any string gauge lower or higher than the stock 10-58.
Several months ago I bought an Ibanez RG927QM that came with the Edge Zero II bridge featuring the Zero Point System (ZPS3Fe). Basically what the system is...
