It's finally here, my custom Strictly 7 guitar.

The specs:

Seven strings on a 27.5" baritone bolt-on, rock maple neck.
Flame maple top on a northern ash body.
Bare Knuckle Aftermath pickups.
Sperzel locking tuners.
Hipshot bridge.
26 frets with a Custom inlay on the 12th fret.

I have a 3-way toggle (Bridge-Both-Neck), a kill switch toggle, one vol/tone.

I have had it for about a month now and have barely been able to put it down. It plays like a dream! I just can't wait to plug it up to my Duel Rec.:hbang:

Thanks man! It is actually trans black on top. The picture makes it look purple for some reason. I am going to take more pics this weekend possibly.

That is interesting, and beautiful at the same time! Probably sounds killer but how well does it play???

Congrats!

Thanks, man. I play it through a Mesa Dual Rec w/ Marshall 4/12 cab and it's a beast! With the BKP Aftermaths, every string rings out and can be heard. It's super crisp.

The neck of the guitar is thin and FAST. It plays like a dream. I can do chunky bar chords, lead, and single note prog riffs easily and accurately on the neck. The action makes it play like butter.

Cool V shape. That guitar looks like it is 50% pickups! Are you sure it isn't purple and you are just colorblind?

Not really a fan of V's in general but that one is pretty killer. Oh and the finish is awesome.

Happy NGD!
