I’ve had this guitar for 5 years and use it for recording many different styles like metal, hardcore, indie and Lo-Fi. I have a few things to say about it.
There’s a couple small downsides. The tone pot doesn’t feel too solid, and apparently that’s a fairly common issue because of the push pull, but it’s also an easy upgrade. I also find that, mostly due to the neck through design, it does need a truss rod adjustment about twice a year, at least in Canada where we have real winters.
Other than that, this is literally my favourite guitar I’ve ever played. If I could only have one guitar and price wasn’t a factor, I’d still get this one. It’s insanely well built, super high quality and just feels like a very finely tuned machine.
I’ve heard some people don’t like the pickups, but I think they’re fantastic, especially for high gain, it’s just a preference some people have I guess. Also, in split coil mode, these things are AMAZING for cleans. Usually split coil pickups sound kinda weak and anemic. These don’t at all, they are much closer to a proper fender single coil than any other split I’ve tried.
All in all, very versatile, sounds great at everything, plays better than most custom shop guitars I’ve tried and has similar build quality. I can’t recommend this thing enough!
Not only are you thorough, but you also shred! Gonna get this guitar soon, thank you for the review!
Yup.. definitely buying that one because of you.
I bought one of these in the skyburst finish a year ago and I love it. These things sound amazing!
This guitar in that blue finish is on my wishlist.
Found the orange finish version in used condition in my guitar store and tried it out and fell in love.
Albeit, the price is more attractive for the used one in orange, but im longing for a blue one to be in contrast of my hellraiser's red quilted maple top.
The neck does not go through the body
Deftonesss aaa
ill forever be deadset on active pickups i cant stand the hollow scratchyness passives have, it sounds so unprofessional
Tuning 7 string multi scale in B standard is such a sin
Thanks for this! I'm getting one as a backup for my RGMS7. It's coming next week m/
I just played one today. Having not really got on with 7 strings in the past, I realised that the fanned frets make all the difference. Absolute beast of a guitar.
Yo I recognized that aaron Marshall solo sick
1 more week until mine gets here!!
This guitar is just a fucking beast. My absolute go to for everything and my absolute favorite instrument I own
Hey! Great vid but you never mentioned if the guitar has neck dive or not? So does it?
I Have The Schecter Reaper-6 FR-S Satin Charcoal Burst Floyd Rose 1500 Trem With Neck Sustainiac Pups W Bridge Diamond Decimator Humbuckers..But I Find The Schecter Reaper 7 *Multiscale*
Quite Interesting..Thx For Sharing..
What's the weight of this guitar?
awful sound. what are u using?
Bought of these back in January and have not regretted it at all, such a beautiful instrument and it plays so well.
For those considering this guitar.
I’ve owned Aristides, Kiesel, Strandberg and Abasi’s
This guitar stacks up to Kiesels and Strandys I’ve had. If you make simple upgrades like locking tuners, steel frets, and pups, you have yourself an exceptionally well made “mid range” guitar.
I’m actually baffled how little known this guitar is with how well designed it is. If it weren’t for the nickel frets I’d say it’s a steal for the price.
Anyhow, highly recommend this guitar!
Solid review, great production value and sound. Keep it up!
B string? You mean a G string? ????
Nice review. Convinced me to get this over an ibanez iron label
I've got the lefty version.. great guitar. I did change the tuners for locking type though. Nothing wrong with the originals but just prefer locking types for quicker string changes.
to me seems unlogical such tilt around 1st fret . it breaks the brain and fingers to play cords . i guess.
i ordered mine a year ago itll be in april 20th, cant wait . shes gorgeous.
Update my dude, i just got it yesterday finally only took one year but being lefty they basically had to make a new one for me.
So far shes great. What vst do you like to use for your gain tones?
That thing does shred!
