Would you trust this seller?

I'm thinking of getting a guitar with 7 strings, 27 frets, and a floyd. I found this inexpensive one at DHGate.

I know it's probably really low-quality. I'm thinking that after I buy it, I'm going to make a lot of changes (replace the pickups, scallop the fingerboard, give it a setup, etc.)

Looks to be a Chinese copy of some sort. I'd stay far away personally.

 

[Alex Kenivel]

Yeah, def. not

Stay away get A agile or maybe a 29 fret washburn

Noooooooo

Buy something else used. LTD/Schecter/Ibanez etc.

Hell if it will keep you from buying that I'll sell you my LTD Viper 407 in great condition for $300 I have 3 other 7's I'm keeping lol.

Dumping a ton of cash into that thing is not a good idea imho. The cost plus all the parts you mentioned, assuming you do all the work yourself, well you can do WAY better my friend...
