Thats what i exactly do... if i remove one which would be better i cant adjust the tremolo to line up with the body... and if i try to move the screws i cant... because they are too much screwed inside the body... There must be a sollution. I asked today Rusty on his forum and he said he uses 3 springs... i dont get itI run 4 springs in the back of mine and I only play in Eb.
Mybe but i cant take it every time when i will change the strings... But the point is that the cavity in the back isnt too long like on some Ibanezes or Jacksons when i compared. On them you can screw the screws in the back much more. Rusty uses A# tuning if im right with 9 gauge strings and the top is 60 i think... thats more logical to use only 3 springs with lower tension. Or maybe if in standard tuning its enough to buy a dadario 7 string set with a 54top string... i try it later But i just can only recomend to every one to try this beast out... playing on it is soooo easy. When i played on the Hellraiser it felt like the sound would be sealed in a shell (thats because my white hellraiser had a such thick finish and bindings all over) now the sound resonates so much that the guitar quakes when i hit the low string. Really i cant find words for it how great is this... maybe even better than the RC7G with the xeno finish.Looks great - that's definitely the RC7 I would want. Regarding the set-up - Rusty also mentioned that you should probably take it to a tech to get set-up properly....good advice man

Mahogany > Xeno for me at least
As far as the trem setup, it looks as if you're going to have to make a choice between 9's with a .60 in Bb tuning and 3 springs, or your 10's and 4.....or standard tuning....or putting in higher tension tremolo springs?
There are plenty of solutions, I'm sure you'll be ok.

Congrats man.
Those extra pics are much appreciated too, cheers
Thumbs up for almost everything...
Except the bodyshape. Oh god... The horns looks funky, and the rest of the body is somewhat odd...
But not my guitar, and the rest is friggin hot, so all's good.
I would totally envy you, if the body shape didn't ruin it for me. XD
