Schecter: Loomis signature or Hellraiser?!

I would take the Loomis cuz I prefer maple fretboards to rosewood ones, but I know both guitars are great so it all comes to what you prefer. Also IIRC the Hellraiser has a more interesting set of pups, so you should try both if you have the opportunity.

If I scrape up $1000+ this summer these are some guitars I might look into, if I decide to buy new:
LTD H-1007FR
Ibanez RG1527M
BC Rich Steve Smyth 7
Jackson SLAT3-7 Gun Metal
LTD SC-608B (if I want an 8)
I'm still very unsure of what I want though...

Where we're going we don't need neck pickups.
Looking into another 6 string and so far I have my choices narrowed down to:
The choice between these two is mostly a matter of if anyone has seen these in person, which finish looks nicer? the third one is a whole different guitar altogether...
or:
or:
^ the floyded version.

I'm aware of this.
But they both get positive reviews, and i've seen a couple people who have said the premiums play nearly as well as a high end prestige.

I haven't had the chance to try the premiums yet, but this guy's an ibanez freak turned esp convert, and here's what he says:

Hello everyone, I'm new to the forums, I wanted to get my first 7 string Ibanez without paying much. I have an RG 350 DX.
1) Are these 2 any good?
2) Are they better or worse than the RG 350DX?
3) What's the difference between the 7320 and 7321?
4) IF they are the same except for the tremelo, is it worth the extra price? (I have a tremolo in my 350DX)
Thank you in advance

Its up to you whether you want a trem or not. They're practically the same, just a trem and a non-trem. Don't expect the trem on it to be a High Quality one tho. With a pickup change tho they're really nice guitars.
Oh, and they're definitely better than your RG.

I would not pay full price for a 7321, seem kinda pricey for what you get. Scour your local CL and try to find a 7621/7421/7321 in that order.
How so? They're all 3xx series MII RGs.
This. Take the 7 out of the model number and you're left with a 3xx series. I didn't even know they made a 7320, haha. One thing to consider is whether or not you want your tremolo failing on you when you're buying cheaper Ibanez guitars.

I played a 7320 at the gearfest a while ago, it was pretty sick, although I can get a RG7620 for that price.....

Actually my RG 350 DX is pretty solid. The tremolo isn't giving me any problems. I just want to know if the 7321 will deliver less than the RG 350 DX. If it were exactly the same, but with an extra string, I would be okay with that. I just want to make sure that the 350 DX isn't better than the 7321. Just to see if it's worth the money.
What is up with the 7421 and the 7621? I can't find them on the Ibanez site. How much do they cost?

I like the wizard II a bit better than the wizard II-7 just because I find the shape feels better as a 6 string shape, but this is me being a nit picky asshole more than anything
The 7421 and 7621 are discontinued models (the 7620/7621 is now the 1527). I would pay 200-300 dollars for a 7421 and $500 for a 7620 although thats really dependant on condition.

Everyone keeps saying that
But these that guitar was discontinued in 2002. Is it possible for me to get a new one? Used is not an option for me. Stealthdjentstic

The 1527 is the new version of the 7620 although its MIK (IIRC).

For some reason, I feel like the strings are a bit looser with a tremelo. I have played on a Squier (no tremolo) and the strings felt really tight, I don't want that. Is the Gibraltar bridge any good?
