Guitarist you most want to see pick up a 7

[AborteD]

Mine would be Mikael Akerfeldt or Marc Rizzo. Speaking of Rizzo has anyone else heard Colossal Myopia?

I have seen a live video where Rizzo was playing a 7620, with Soulfly or Cavalera Conspiracy I guess.

 

[Nightside]

Steve Vai

 

[The Somberlain]

Steve Vai

Uh, he was one of the first guitarists to use a 7

For me:
Robert Fripp
Company Segundo (RIP)
Ali Farka Toure (RIP)

Well, only if I could bering back world music guitarists from the dead...

 

[The Honorable]

John Abernathy from Conducting From the Grave.

Akerfeltd, hands down, no second thoughts.

According to Wiki ...." Rizzo, as of 2009, is endorsed by B C Rich. A signature 7 string Stealth model has been built for him and made available for to the public as an import model in 2010".

 

[Andromalia]

Patrick Rondat...I love this guys tone.......all Peavey Gear and ESP Custom Signature Models....

Just to nitpick he's an Ibanez endorsee with a signature model now.

Randy rhoads...too bad it'll never happen

Hey Crushing Anvil, is that Rizzo 7 yours? If so what is it like? I have been toying with the idea of getting one...but I dont have the liberty of being near a store that would stock one to try out.

 

[ShadyDavey]

Shame he hated 7 strings.

You saw through my cunning plan!

Michael Schenker - Melodic soloing on a mahogany V through a screaming Marshall?

Yes please!

When is the last time anyone has seen him playing a 7?

That music video he did with Orianthi, that Jemini distortion pedal video, and there was a clip on YouTube of him writing new material and he was playing a Universe.

I'm used to Ibanez frets, so the smaller ones on this B.C. Rich irk me a little, there's neck dive and the jack placement is retarded....but I look metal as fuck when I play it

plays very nicely...I swear ebony makes you play smoother

If the aforementioned problems didn't exist it would be a rediculously amazing guitar.

Original Floyd Rose, EMG 81-7/707, Mahogany body...

I'm thinking of switching to passives and putting mounting rings on them but not sure if that would look retarded

Why does it seem like I've heard this conversation before?

 

[Sjusovaren]

After seeing what he did with Drop D, I'd love to see what Adrian Smith could come up with using a seven-string.

If it's anything like the 6 string stealth (which it is!), expect it to neck dive worse than any guitar you've ever owned.

That's actually food for thought - another one of my youthful influences

Mastodon should use 7 strings tbh, as they tune D standard and add a low A for some songs, would be easier to use a 7 string in A standard.
