they are re-introduced for 2010.

oh my: tempting

I'm in the market for a fixed bridge power guitar.
Up until now I was torn between the new RGA7 and the XPT707FX since I had already given up hope on finding a fixed bridge loomis.

However, the RGA7 seems a bit cheap and the Xiphos is a bit extreme and doesnt have active pickups, although I hear good things about the playability

It would just be a backup/alternate tunings guitar so I can afford to try something new and since I've always played Ibanez I wouldn't mind something else for a change. Can't wait to try one.

All that now needs to happen is to loose those cross inlays and we'd have a serious killer. Let's just hope the price doesn't go up ala Ibanez for the new finish.

amen.

I started another thread about this being shown at Musikmesse (with a new pic) here http://www.sevenstring.org/forum/sevenstring-guitars/113975-new-black-loomis-new-pic.html

Now that the Loomis is in a choice of two colours and two types of bridge it really seems like Schecter are putting their weight behind Jeff and giving him a major push as iirc this is the most choice they've given in any of their previous and current sig models which is pretty cool considering the fact that it's a 7 and not a 6 string and typical Strat/LP shape.

I quite like the inlays.. however a blank board with a big cross covering the 11th to 13th would be BADASS imo.

and they do make left-handed Loomis guitars to the person above who said they'd like it.

Very nice. I still prefer the red one only because you can see the grain of the wood in it.
