Fuck that. I love that it only has 22. The neck pickup sounds incredible on the high strings. I never used 23 or 24 anyway. I just didn't like soloing that high.

How many notes do you REALLY play that high, that you couldn't bend into?
F#.
Tremolo homie. F# ain't no thang.
I own an S7, too. I'm familiar with the lesser # of frets lol
I prefer 24 frets by far, but i love the S, so i can look past the lack of frets. It throws me off though, cause im so used to a 24 fret neck (haven't used a 21 or 22 fret neck regularly since my first guitar, like 5 years ago), when i do slides up to certain frets in certain songs, i always hit the 17th instead of the 19th fret on the S, whereas that NEVER happens on the UV
I can see that. Going from my RG7620 to the S7420 was no problem at all. I got used to it immediately. It just feels right. I'm glad I finally got one.

I'm seriously considering getting an s7320 and getting a 28" and something scale 24 fret neck made for it like Urkvlt did. Could get shit like a blank ebony fretboard and stuff too.
I'd be more of the mind to sand the body, fill in the neck cavity, paint it neon friggin yellow and put a 24 fret maple board on top of the current neck... if only i had the time/money.
Damn nice

I don't like soloing that high too. Anyway, my fingers are way too big for those small frets...
I never got that "it lacks 2 frets" argument, but hey, to each his own i guess.

Yeah, there's that too. My fingers are too big as well.

Hey Congrats Xero! I've had enough.... my GAS has hit a peak!!!! I can't take it anymore! I was thinking about buying a second Carvin but you know what? A member is going to sell me his S7420FMTT!!! Hell yeah, I'll post a picstory once we make it official! You helped me go over the top, I've seen too many of these now to resist! Damn you... and thank-you... all at the same time! 
Nice score. Congrats! 
Very cool, Nick.

Glad I could do it homes.
Thanks to everyone else. I fucking love this thing, it rules so hard.
I got a question for the other people with S7's. Which is which. I know mine is Twilight Blue, but there's another version (with the wave inlays), so is mine an S7420FMTW or S7420FMTT?
