Schecter Whore
Thats the vid im listening to on YouTube at the moment.
The ATX is darker and tighter sounding, the Loomis is brighter but a little looser sounding in the video.
How heavy is the ATX compaired to the Loomis??? Can/has anyone weigh/weighed one???
Well this thread inspired me to crank my rig up and give each a whirl to really nail the differences. The blackouts and the ATX are just more crushing. Its got a heavier sound, for lack of a better descriptor. I think someone on here said it best, the blackouts are more metal.

Both guitars are pretty different tonally. I prefer playing on the ATX because it seems more of the low end details come through, where on the Loomis, just the higher stuff shines through. The best way I can describe it is that the Loomis with 707's seems to produce a more higher ranger 80's and 90's metal tone, where the ATX is more bone crushing and made for today's brutal metal. Of course, both axes can do anything well, but for me the ATX is the winner.
I really think the Loomis is going to slay when I put 2 blackout neck p'ups in. The thing will be an absolute monster, and I may have a hard time deciding. Although feel wise, like I have said before, the ATX is just more at home for me.
As far as weight goes, the ATX is a little lighter I think. I don't think there is much of a difference. I believe my Schecter C-1 Jolly Roger weighs more than both guitars do.
Are the frets any different between the two?
As far as what? Type of frets, spacing, etc? They seem identical to me, the only difference is the fretboard feel, since one is ebony, and one is sealed maple.
