Conklin 7 on ebay

[feedoscillate]

Go into the electrics and type in conklin, seller might be bulshitting, but if it's real the price looks decent.

I apologize, I suffer from technologis ineptitudiness, and some of the symptoms include:

Inability to post links w/more than 40 characters
Lack of picture uploading abilities
Aversion to digital recording software
Dry mouth and explosive diarrhea

Is it the red one, cause I saw one under 7 string guitars, but the picture looked fake and his feedback was suspect...

 

[feedoscillate]

Yup, that's the one, I think it's probably fake too, otherwise I'd jump all over it.

 

[Naren]

I thought you were talking about the yellow one...

This one? That's just an old stock picture, it might be legit. I'd grab it if it were 100 bucks (or even 75) cheaper.

It might be worth about that with Bartolinis in it, but they need a bit of work to be a really good guitar. The stock trem is crap tbh. I'm halfway through upgrading my one, got a Floyd 7 in there now

 

[jacksonplayer]

I wouldn't pay more than about $250 for one of those. I've played several--they sound horrible and the ones I've tried had badly need fret-leveling.

 

[jim777]

Really? Up until now I've heard nothing but good about these Groove Tools 7s. I guess I'll wait to get my hands on one before I get one.

 

[jacksonplayer]

That's definitely what I recommend, unless you can get one cheap. The neck has a very nice shape, and I suspect it would be very playable with some fret dressing. Problem is, the body is made out of some really cheapo kinda wood, and it shows in the sound--thin and shrill. Even unplugged, the guitar just doesn't sound that great. I think you can do a lot better than this for $350--an Ibanez RG7420 or 7620 would be way better.

 

[Doctor J]

Thin? Mine has more low end than my C7. The body is made out of Cherry.

 

[jacksonplayer]

I've played several and didn't find that to be case, but maybe that was just my old, tired ears at work. If they had made it out of mahogany, that would have rocked.

 

[Doctor J]

Bah, everybody has mahogany these days, we can't all sound the same

 

[Rayne Mann]

Trust me, Cherry is a good tonewood, and nowhere near as cheap as Basswood.

 

[jacksonplayer]

Bah, everybody has mahogany these days, we can't all sound the same

And yet, so many of us do...
