Jeff Loomis sig pics !

Fender has coated ones and uncoated ones, usually all tinted necks are coated but there are some satin uncoated ones.

I love plain maple necks and plain maple fretboards, it's crazy...and the one in that pic is kinda dark...might just be the light but it kinda looks coated, since the body is that vampyra satin finish or whatever I'd imagine the neck would be satin which is the best thing on earth

Heavy ass hell man!

I like the color, and with that maple fretboard it's so hot!

 

[Freddie]

I'm buying one of these. Specially now that I've remained 7less once again... Is ash a heavy wood by any chance? Say, heavier than mahogany...?

 

[Emperoff]

Swap Ash is lighter than mahogany, regular ash is heavier but I don't know hum much it actually is compared to mahogany

 

[Kagami]

My H-207 is like 8.5 pounds, but its spec was just listed as "ash."

Try this - pick up a strat. Then, pick up a les paul.




Actually, I'm mostly kidding - I believe ash is lighter, but I don;t know by how much.

Great looking guitar.....MMMmmm but i have seen custom schecters like this before.......

My I still hate schecter headstocks.......

Congrates to Loomis this will be a weapon in his hands....hope they make a a inlay-less model pure maple rules:

Ash + 707's????
won't that be bright as hell?

No.

1) Ash isn't that bright. It's punchy and present but it's not super bright or harsh.

2) EMG 707s have a lot of attack but theyre fairly beefy sounding, not that bright. Hope I don't get flamed, but its my opinion most guitars with EMGs in it sound about the same anyways. Very minimal differences. I've had EMGs in mahogany, basswood, alder, etc... all sounds about the same.. just subtle differences.

hmm?the hellraiser 7
I have now (all mahogany) is already bright as hell thru my 5150.
I am going to need to play one of these when they come out.

You use other guitars through it? Usually people complain about guitars being "bright" because one of their other guitars is really dark and they have the EQ set up for that...

 

[kmanick]

No ,actually my other guitars sound great, I have to "re -EQ" when I use the Hellraiser..
Same with my B-52 I have to cut the highs a bit on that amp as well
with the Hellraiser.

 

[Jeff]

aww thanks

I think he meant me.

Its awesome to see a maple board on a 7.

 

[Ancestor]

I'm sold. I used to like rosewood or ebony for a fretboard, but then I realized that I couldn't see a damn thing on stage. The maple is perfect. Inlays, EMGs, scale length, trem... this guitar is over the top. Loomis is my new hero.

I was cruisin around on myspace, and i went to Loomis' profile. I checked his pics and guess what i found there...

 

[Michael]

OMG, that's purty.

 

[Kagami]

Are those 7-string Vs? That one we've been ogling must be the prototype.

 

[Ryan]

Appears to be. That looks like a 7 string EMG on it so yah
