Schecter Loomis-7 FR 7-String Electric Guitar with Floyd Rose

No longer available at zZounds
Go goth with this Jeff Loomis-approved 7-string. Metal cross inlays adorn the maple fretboard, while a pair of EMG 707 active humbuckers deliver meaty tone.

What's special about this item?

Feature: What it does:
Ash body Strong, snappy responsive tone
Floyd Rose Original locking tremolo Double-locks guitar in tune at nut and bridge
3-way pickup selector switch Wide tonal range: select neck, bridge, or both
Maple neck and fretboard Bright, even tone with long sustain

The extended scale Loomis 7-String features an arched ash body with a maple set-neck and makes other guitars tremble in its presence. The 26.5-inch scale length of this guitar allows for some of the meatiest, crunchiest tone around. Jeff Loomis knows that access to the upper frets is important, and so does Schecter, the Loomis 7-String utilizes Schecter's Ultra Access neck-joint to get the most out of your fingerboard. Other features include powerful EMG 707 pickups and an original Floyd Rose tremolo.

I was worried about the neck reviews,while it is large it is a comfortable playing neck.After playing the guitar going back to a six string left me with the feeling of only half a guitar. The volume pot on mine was bad and stuck in certain spots,but I replace those anyway so no big deal. It came tuned to standard,after tuning flat and resetting the bridge the Loomis model does exactly what I need it to do. Great overall purchase. I've seen a lot of reviews about how big the neck is and it's lack of access to the 24th fret.Give it a week or to and you'll adjust so for me it really doesn't seem like a big issue.
Sound
You can play anything on this guitar it will clean up when turning down the volume,so it doesn't have to be just foe metal.Really depends on your playing skill.
Features
For me the pickup switch is a little low,but everything works well together on this guitar.
Ease of Use
Plug it in and it's ready to go.Pretty simple design volume knob and pickup switch.
Quality
Better quality than guitars that cost twice as much.
Value
For the price range I think a case could come with the instrument.
