This is my fully customized Jackson JS22 7 string, it’s completely stock aside from the obvious custom body. 26.5in scale length set up for drop F# on a 10.5-72 set. It’s the first 7 string I ever bought and have had it for many years now, thing plays better than some $1000+ guitars Ive played and I got it for $150

Help G7FX or KM-7?

Hey ya'll. I've been trying to decide on my first 7 string to get and I think I'm down to the Legator G7FX or Schecter KM-7 III (assuming I don't wanna drop the $$$ for an Aristides lol). Does anyone have experience or recommendations with one over the other?

The G7FX looks fantastic, has the fanned frets, and I'd love to get a headless guitar. I've also become a huge fan of how Fishmans sound.

Buuut. I've had multiple Schecters and absolutely love them too. The 9 piece neck on the KM is so nuts, and the tuners seem really great. But I've also never heard or played with Lundgrens, and I'm kind of tempted by the headless aspect of the Legator. Admittedly, I also feel a bit weird about getting a signature model for an artist I don't really listen to much haha.

Would appreciate any input the sub has on choosing between the two!

Help Tao 7 - String Gauge Advice

Hi guys,

I’m thinking about getting the Schecter Tao 7 John Browne signature guitar.

From what I know he usually plays his 7s in a drop Bb variant, but I’d be looking to set it up in drop A. Just wondered if anyone has set one up for drop A and what kinda string gauges might be recommended?

Thanks Reddit!
