"Only guitar I'd ever need"
Verified Customer

I don't usually like signature products because they're built to other people specifications but this guitar is built for the metal player in mind mick tompson is a smart guy and a great musician most people do not give him the credit he deserves but this guitar feels like a custom shop what's basically it is to pick ups are high out put but have passive qualities I love Floyd Rose style bridges but do not ever need a tremolo this bridge give your the feel of a Floyd rose with the locking and fine tuners but with out the extra hole in the guitar and the Benifits of a locked down bridge. If you play dropped tunings this is your guitar custom shop and custom case for a more then reasonable price.

"My most favorite guitar yet"
I will keep this guitar forever and ever. I love it.
Sound
This is the best guitar I have owned so far. I have had RG's, 777's, les pauls...this guitar is awesome. I love the fixed bridge, it never gets out of tune. The look and feel are excellent. I feel so comfortable playing this guitar I just can't put it down. From the neck to the sound this guitar has it all. I don't even miss the tremolo.
Features
The playability is fantastic if that can be considered a feature. I suppose I would have to say the neck is my favorite feature but the whole thing as a package can't be beat. I had every feature in mind as my own invention when I went looking for a guitar then found this and was amazed that everything I wanted to create in a guitar was already done.
Ease of Use
It is way to easy to get a good sound on this guitar. I plugged it in and I was done. I did not have to modify anything.
Quality
Another great Ibanez product. I have tried leaving Ibanez just see what else is out there and I always come back.
Value
Worth every penny although I did pay less than this price. Knowing how good this guitar is I would pay this price if I could not get it for less elsewhere.
Manufacturer Support
Did not need any
The Wow Factor
Plenty of sex appeal. I have the black with blank fret board. This thing caught my eye right away.

"If you drop tune and chug heavy riffs keep reading"
Verified Customer
zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
Sound
The sounds that you get out of this guitar are amazing. There is no need for a tone knob as Mick Thompson dialed this thing in perfectly. The active emg's produce the heaviest sounds and are the only way to go for metal and hardcore genre's.
Features
Whoever wrote the review that said this thing has a floyd rose is a retard. It has a fixed edge bridge with the fine tuners and locks up top. Tremolos are junk for metal and hardcore you don't need it. This is one of the only guitars that has standard drop B tuning and stays in tune.
Ease of Use
plug and play
Quality
This is basically a custom shop guitar. Once you pick it up you wont put it down.
Value
This is a custom signature guitar with a custom case for a standard price. Worth at least $2000.00
Manufacturer Support
Ibanez is number 1 in customer satisfaction. But they don't break so you'll never need it.
The Wow Factor
Blood red, mahogany body neck through design active emg's reverse headstock and the words SEVEN engraved in the neck. nuff said

"Best axe for metal"
Verified Customer
zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
This guitar has tons and tons of sustain. Tones are right in par with any metal. Action is tight and low. If you want a metal grinding guitar then don't procrastinate and buy it.
Sound
Any amp this guitar plays through is one time.
Features
It's simple and straight forward. The fixed bridge feels great without the hassel of retuning as with a Floyd rose.
Ease of Use
Out of The box and away you go.
Quality
As with any other high end ibanez. Top notch.
Value
Well worth the $$$$.
Manufacturer Support
Didn't need any.
The Wow Factor
The pictures of this guitar don't do it any justice.
Musical Background:
Playing professinally for 29 years
