Jeff Loomis new sig is a........V!

[Double A]

All I can say is ewwww.

 

[degge]

I personally hate V's.. damnit

 

[xxxyyy]

Very very nice guitar, but please change the headstock... even though I could accept it. Finally something good after the Jackson archtop and Broderick's nightmare... And... thank God those edges are sharp, I HATE loose ones on Vs.

That kind of just doesn't look good at all. The body seems to small and the cutouts are lame.

 

[Syriel]

I have mixed feelings about it. I'd love to try it out, that's for sure.

Well, at the very least, its one more V for the ERG market.

 

[GSingleton]

yeah....not really digging it...the body looks really small too.

 

[ShadyDavey]

Prototype - I'm not lighting the pyres until it's 100% confirmed as is.

The concept works for me, needs a few things tidying up. A 6 with a Hipshot would go on the "must buy" list, a 7 with that styling and an OFR......not so much.

 

[r3tr0sp3ct1v3]

Aww I think a telecaster would of been better. Or singlecut as you people classify a tele rocking humbuckers. I think a loomise PT would of been amazing. This V is eh

 

[That_One_Person]

Looks goofy and not very Schecter-like imo. I think a round symmetrical V (gibson-style) would have been better.

 

[clark81]

Nice one.... I ve seen this body somewhere before.....

 

[cardinal]

Bernie Jr. must be proud that the Vixen has "inspired" so many other manufacturers.

 

[MetalBuddah]

Totally called that one!

 

[Spence]

the proportions are all wrong, and the black satin really doesnt go with the mcdonalds yellow, will need to play one when it comes out before i can make a proper judgement

 

[metalman_ltd]

I dont think it looks good at all. That may just be because I hate v's though.

 

[Valennic]

Key word here is PROTOTYPE guys. It's not the final design. There may be things he hates about it, so we'll see when the final unveiling comes.

 

[BabUShka]

it's quite a surprise for Schecter as it's more in line with something BCRich or Moser would make,


Schecter are also asking for opinions on the possibility of a Loomis 6 string model too so it seems like they've got a lot planned for him in 2012.

Well, im not surprised.. They've made the Synister gates signatur and Hellraiser V-shaped ++ other "special lookin" guitars.
I'd love to try the loomis 6 though.. Very happy with my Blackjack ATX, there will be more Schecters to my collection as soon as i get the money

 

[TimSE]

I was expecting to be very disapoint. but I approve! not going to get one but still i dig it

 

[daemon barbeque]

It might be a prototype but somebody was thinking that "it's good enough to build and give Loomis to try it", so If we don't complain, and especially Mr. Loomis himself, they will produce it as it is.

So, please get rid of the horns or make them nicer, put a nicer headstock on it and match it to the body.

And yess, do a Hipshot 6 string version.

Cheers.

 

[animalwithin]

Give me the origional Loomis any day!!!

 

[Spaceman_Spiff]

I think the V suits him well...He's an over-the-top shredder and he now has an over-the-top guitar.

I've never liked any of his music but I looove his old sig, because it was so tasteful and barebones.
