zZounds Gear Experts Say...
An unorthodox metal monster, this guitar features an added 7th string, a reverse headstock, and an outlandish body style. It also features a 5-piece Wizard II 7 thru-neck.
Overview
Those who practice the art of Chaos magic believe that "Nothing is True and Everything is Permitted." Shapes can be shifted, rules can be broken and radical thoughts are the norm. This way of thinking might also apply to Ibanez's X Series. In 2008, we've got the first ever neck-thru Iceman models with reverse headstocks to boot and the new 7-string Xiphos has a 5-piece Wizard II 7 thru-neck.
Wicked Iceman and Xiphos tones powered by DiMarzio's D-Activator pickups. New 7-string Xiphos XPT707FXGCM in Grey Chameleon finish.

Go play it in the store if you are not sure about it. For me its just the right guitar, i was looking for.
Sound
This is the best 7 string i`ve ever played. The sound is just AMAZING. At first when i bought this monster i thought of changing the pickups to Dimarzio PAF, but after few days of playing i changed my mind completly. The D-Activators are really nice sounding pickups afterall.
Features
Shape is really nice. When playing sitting is just so easy to go up and down the fretboard. But the problem comes when you stand up ... the neck of the guitar just overweightes the body and as a result you get to really have to hold on to it. But for me not a big of an issue ... just takes a bit of time to get used to.
Ease of Use
Hmmm .. i think this guitar would be capable to do any style of music ... from Korn to bluesy stuff.
Quality
The best MII guitar quality-wise.
Value
Deffenatly worth money.
