Modded Squier Stagemaster 7

[Hallski]

A few months ago I bought a used Stagemaster 7, with the plans of modding it a bit. Finally got it finished and I've gotta say, this thing is a beast!

All the electronics were redone, and it now has Fastback Custom Beard Comber 7 pickups. 3 way switch with push-push pots on both the volume and tone. Tone splits the bridge, and the volume splits the neck.

Nice. I wish Fender would start making 7's again.

 

[Hallski]

definitely! They could totally enter the market and find success, I'd think.

Awesome man. My local GC had a used blue one for sale. Not a bad playing guitar. I bet yours sounds and plays a lot better now than it did stock.

Sleek. I love Stagemasters

Me too, it would be cool if they tried to get back into the market, they'd be successful I'd say.

For sure. For the cost, it's a great playing guitar and definitely nicer upgraded.

Nice man!

Thanks dude!

Thanks man, I dig them too. I've always read about them but now I'm a believer in their quality! I'd love to get a few more

My very first 7-string was this model, and I still use it to this day! Definitely an excellent guitar, in my opinion. Happy NGD!

If they just brought out the standard american or mexican strats that are exactly the same as they are today, only with seven strings, I think they would make a killing.

I find reverse headstocks better for tuning (feels more natural).

The showmaster is definitely one of the better affordable 7 string guitars out there. If only Fender made a higher spec version. Now that would really grab our attention.
