I'm in the market for a new guitar and i want to go extended range. The most i can do is about $500. I don't mind buying used, but i want something with a thin neck, i can't stand the neck on my Schecter 6 string I'm trying to sell. My Jackson v has one of the loveliest necks I've ever played, however. Not w fan of trems. I would prefer to stay away from Schecter, but i would like to know what you guys think would be a good choice for my price range? Don't worry about the transition period between 6 and 7 or 8 because i already have played both quite a bit, i just don't own one. I think a good 7 would be the Jackson JS22-7 maple fretboard or the Dean C750X as they would allow for modifications because the price is low. For an 8 string im thinking maybe the Ibanez RG8 or BC Rich Villain Escape 8. I havent looked into much used though. What do you guys think?
