Amen to that. Here's hoping now that Ibby has started making 24 fret 6 stringers in the S series that a future S7 will get the same treatment. A 24 fret S7 would be teh sex. If the S7420 had had 24 frets I might not have had the baritone neck made, but hey, no regrets there at all. The S series body is just THAT good.It's actually the only complained i have against the S7 is the 22 frets. It beats the RG1527 in every other category, including cost.
