Not quite semi hollow, chambered means (it's in the name) that there are a bunch of chambers in the body :)
It does sounds similar to a hollowbody, but not quite as extreme. It's a more open, airy sound for lack of better words

Ya, I get what you mean and I can definitely hear it. I've always wanted a guitar with that type of sounds. Now I guess I know what I need. A chambered guitar!

I'd love to see/hear more clips of your guitar, and maybe a video of your thoughts and a type of walkthrough of it. I'll be getting a fanned 7 from Vic soon as well and am always looking for more info on it.

Fucking gorgeous guitar. Sounds amazing too. Maybe I missed it in the thread, but how much did this cost? I'm considering buying a quality 7 string by the year end, this one would definitely be an option if I could get my hands on one. Killer chops btw.

I don't think I would be able to play that guitar. It's so beautiful I'd be afraid that it would get scratched if I ever took it out of the case.

I don't think I'll ever be able to properly articulate how gorgeous that guitar is. It looks stunning and sounds just as mad. Seriously jealous of your newest piece of gear, may it serve you well for many years. :D

Love the expressions:metal:! It adds character to your playing. The tone is addicting to listen too for sure, and the chambered body does add a lot of openness in a good way. I'm seriously considering a similar spec'd guitar from Vik. This one is amazing, but I don't know your other build might top it!
