I noticed that a lot of brands are going with the FR special instead of the licenced lately on the newer models. This seems to be a good move for players. I have not played one but I hear they are good, and even if not, at least they are a direct swap for an OFR.

+1, although the headstock does seem a little bigger than it should be.

Why does everyone insist on using EMGs! Still, that Jackson is nice.

Seriously, that Soloist 7 looks sooo wrong...that headstock is just rediculous and those damn too small Inlays 
I´m liking the natural 6 String Version though.
The LTD MH417 is totally redundant, too. They should have made it 27" for some diversity.
At least Ibanez has delivered this year

^ Figures since almost nobody else did. Usually Ibanez is lacking with innovative and WANTED new guitars and colors. They did good this year though. I'm happy about that.
That soloist's headstock is ginormous and looks very dumb. Also the cutaway/neck ratio is off.

Would have liked Jackson to release some more production USA models. Not really big on the MG series.

I'm also hoping there's more to those companies than just these teasers. Really, really hope. Otherwise it's a huge disappointment. Nothing in the ESP/LTD line is new for sevens... though that Earvana nut option is nice...
The Jackson 7 looks like it has Down's syndrome.
Looks like Schecter and Ibanez rule the day for 7+ strings this year...

You could probably hit a hockey puck pretty well with that headstock. Yikes...bad.
Is it me or do the Schecters just seem bulky?
I'm an owner of 4 Schecters and have played them for roughly 10 years now, but this year I'll be switching brands. Just not excited about the Schecter line anymore. Black, red, white and the off blue and green... boring.

Guys, do you realize that this is BY FAR the best year ever for us sevenstringers?
Finally seven string guitars (and players) have ALL the due respect in the business. I'm happy.

It could be the LTD fanboy in me, but I don't think the MH-417 is redundant.
True, it's the same basic layout as the Viper-417 (25.5", EMG's, mahogany, etc), but LTD already have a 27" scale 7 string (SC-607B) and I can't see them introducing a new model (at least right away) as a baritone. Especially one that (likely) is cheaper and the same shape & color as the SC-607B.
As much as we love them, standard scale guitars are much more popular than baritones.
Maybe if the model sells quite well they might consider making a baritone version. In any case, it's great to see more 7's!

The headstock on the jackson is hideous.
