7 String Parker, korina body and neck all jet black with RMC saddles and 2 custom Humbuckers. Trem, RS Guitarworks PRS High Gain electronics upgrade kit. Neutrik Locking Jack and DIN-8 Midi Jack.

Since parker will never make a seven, id like another Alembic 7.
Id do a Korina or Maple/Mahogany Body
The same 7 piece purpleheart/maple/ebony neck w/ maple fretboard
Maybe a 28 Scale if not then a regular 25.5
Conical Fretboard Radius
Stainless Frets
Nickel hardware
2 Passive Humbuckers maybe ludgren or something in that vein.
Titanium Trem (skyway/kahler/hipshot?) If not Trem then wrap around prs style bridge
Graphite Nut
Sperzel or Steinberger Tuners

This as neck-thru with an OFR tremolo with piezo saddles. Though I'm not sure about the pickups, either Bare Knuckle or DiMarzio's.

Yeah, but I had photoshop what I couldn't get done in V-RG. I have more 7's and 8's in the 6-string mockups thread.

A Carvin 7x7 with the following changes:

--a Non-rounded body option
-- the tremolo, pickups, and neck sunk into the body so that he strings are flush with the surface of the top.
-- 25 frets and a 26 or 27 inch scale.

Mine would have to be a Schecter Avenger body style.

26.5" Scale neck
Hard Ash body
5 piece neck thru (Maple with Mahogany stripes) with a birdseye maple board.
Clear blue gloss finish
BK Nailbomb in the bridge, and a cold sweat in the neck.
Locking tune-o-matic bridge with string-thru.
White binding.
Small pearl pentacle between the pickups.
Coil tapped.
Only a volume knob (push-pull) and a 3-way switch.

I can't really describe the body cause it's stuck in my head and I can't fucking draw.

Maybe I'll figure out how to use this cad program some day :lol:

This might be crazy, but here it goes...

This paint:

On an RG1527:

Equipped with a Bare Knuckle Nailbomb pickup in the bridge:

and

A Bare Knuckle Cold Sweat in the neck:

That is my dream seven-string right now.

Question: Is the Neck removable from the Rg 1527? (which would enable body painting by a swirl painter)

Edit: answered my question, yes, the neck is bolted on. this project would roughly cost me $2000. Its actually very reassuring.

An Ibanez S7 with 24 frets, EMG after burner, some new pickups, a Black and really dark red paintjob that still shows the grain, plus the awsome looking skull on matt bachands ibanez sig exactly where it is on his sig except on my guitar in in dark red.

My dream guitar would look exactly like this:
rg8427f-2s.jpg


Except it would be blue. Although I love this orange colour on the RG8427F that I have now.
interceptorpro25blueflame5.jpg


The specs would be the same as the RG8427F except it would have a DiMarzio DS7 in the bridge position and a piezo pickup set in a ZR-7 bridge.

Body: Mahogany w/Maple Top
Neck: Maple/Wenge w/Rosewood Fretboard, Ultra Bolt-On Neck w/VelveTouch Finish
Scale: 25.5"
Pickups: B: DS7 N: AN7
Bridge: ZR-7

If anyone can photoshop this dream machine I would be very appreciative. :D

Well I quite like the first act guitar (just in appearence) that Brents Hinds has.
I'd have that bodyshape but not by First Act, with these specs:

Body - Mahogany
Neck - Some dense wood, don't know what exactly
Fretboard - Ebony
Scale - 25.5
Pickups - A single bridge EMG707
Hardware - all gold - gotoh tuners with the TonePros bridge like the Loomis 7
Inlay - An aztec snake around teh 12th fret, and R.A.W o the 24th
Finish - Tealburst
