Yup - just finished building myself a 7-channel breakout box for my Raven which now has 7 single-string pickups installed.

I've yet to string it up and try it though, as I'm flooded with teaching & playing gigs at the moment. It's a bit frustrating when you just don't have enough hours in the day to get everything done, but the teaching & playing is really enjoyable all the same so I have no right to complain.

it's an age old question, but one i'm still thinking about almost daily.

this video is basically the reason i want one:



does anyone know of a headless 7 trem yet?

Hi, is it possible to buy that kind of guitar somewhere ? Who made that one ?

Actually, I'm looking for a 7-string headless guitar, but this is pretty hard to find one...

Generally, 7-string and 8-string guitars are rare... :(

It's my own design. I'll be getting shop space latter this year to start building more models like that one.

Great video. I love those Steinbergers :metal:

As for the trem, did you see this link?
There really wasn't a bridge / hardware for one unless someone had some stuff custom milled before this came along:

would only be roughly $400 US for a 7 string hardtail set shipped to North america.. (the headless bridge on the first page)

That is damn tempting, and making me think of a headless guitar.. but I must not! Other things are more important =[

Strandberg is also doing a couple of 7 and 8 string neck throughs using this design in the near future that will probably be for sale
