Yeah, don't get me wrong. I'm not talking about the quality of the instrument or anything, I'm talking about what they actually sell for in good condition.
I wish I could find them at those prices. Haven't seen one for under $300, even in good condition. I remember being real worried my RR7R was going to suck, but I was pleasantly surprised when I got it.

If this were a Kelly or Warrior, I would have bought it and fixed it.

The neck single coil pickup is like a Fender jazz bass pickup with a hot-rail along the top; it gives a strong fruity blues/classic rock tone and is very nearly as powerful as the humbucker, and to be honest its tone is more full and meaningful than the humbucker, though the bucker is a useful counterpoint to the single coil job.

How can tone be "Fruity" and "meaningful"?

Please, somebody, tell me.

But really, this is just a horror show. Egads

Really? I used to have a DR-7, and I only paid like $170 for it.

Fruity in sound terms means full & rich while meaningful means clear/precise. They are odd adjectives to use for describing a guitar but not near as odd as thinking people with big hands find standard 6 strings clumsy.

Why did he think putting a mug shot of him as the default picture would attract people?

Sadly that's not the primary question here, though...

If he has done this many times before... does this mean people are actually buying these for those prices?!
Do not underestimate how ignorant about instruments some people are.

Seller notes:

“The guitar generally is close to new condition... the only defects will be things you think might have been done differently in the customisation!”

"... the only defects will be things you think might have been done differently in the customisation!”

"customisation”

You know, I'm going to be honest, if someone made a 7 string with the neck width of an 8 string, I'd be all over it. I feel like this could be cool if the fucking guy actually did a good job. Maybe made his own instead.

Because when playing chords and arpeggiating them, I do end up muting strings that I don't want muted because of my big hands.

All that bring said, this is a trainwreck. . . . .
