This guitar made me a 7-string convert. I own a USA Jackson SL1, which I thought would be the ultimate guitar....it was like $1500 brand new. I find myself trying to think of reasons to play it anymore. I honestly like the neck and fretboard better on the 7321, aside from having the B string.
That being said, what kind of mods do you guys recommend? I'm thinking in terms of replacing the bridge and pickups. Or would I be better off upgrading to a higher end ibanez model? Even though I like the fretboard, some of the frets seem kind of sharp on the edges...theres definitely a large craftmanship gap between this and my jackson...but theres an even larger price gap.
Also, I've always played on 9s in standard tuning, so I'm using 9-52 right now. I think the B and E and possibly the A string seem too low on tension. Any recommendations? I've read a number of threads on string gauge on here, but I also hear that different 7s respond differently to different string gauges.
Thanks in advance
