Want a 26.5'' scale, Tune O Matic bridge and Duncans or 25.5'' scale, Hipshot-style bridge, and Dimarzios?
They're going to be extremely close quality wise. The SLS will also have a thinner neck.
i want hipshot,dimarzios but i want 26.5
The scale is the only thing that cannot be changed, so then I'd pick the SLS.
Lol. Even Alex Wade himself wanted that, iirc, but ESP refuses to make that scale.
That probably has something to do with having to re-tool the whole production line when they'd make a run of one model with a different scale.

I don't know if it was a production issue on their end. I mean, some of the higher-end SC's are made with a 27" neck and they were some of the first to be done so. Maybe ESP would much rather keep the bigger scale lengths to their higher-end models, since the AW is a mid-range axe.
EDIT: The SC-T models are 27", same stock and everything.
Dig your choice man, the AW-7 is a way classier guitar![]()
Since the discussion was based on 26.5" scales and not 27"...
I would say it's fair to assume that if Alex wanted a 27" scale he could have very easily gotten it. Are you forgetting that the SC-607B is in the same class as the AW-7?
I think it was a matter of ESP simply not wanting to deliver a 26.5" scale as was already mentioned.
Just a thought, of course.
