Something a little different this time, picked up a seven string acoustic-electric from MF since the price was right. Got it in last night and spent a little time with it and was quite impressed for what I paid ($199).
The action and intonation were both great, I just had to tune it up and off I went. Tuning was noticeably pleasant as well, I didn't have to fight the tuners to get the notes right where I wanted them, just nice and smooth. I've yet to plug it in to test the pickup, but acoustically it sounds great. I'm excited to be able to play some seven string jams unplugged and have it as an option for future recording as well.
I'll update with a few pics soon. I tried to take a couple real quick last night but my phone was dead and the battery is on the fritz, charged it for like 20 minutes and it just died right as I took the first pic. I'm not sure how long they'll be on sale though, so I figured I'd go ahead and post my thoughts in case other folks had an eye out for a seven string acoustic on the cheap. Here's a stock pic for now:
