Amazing guitar - Especially for the Price!

Sound	Okay, first off, this guitar was played through a solid state Marshall MGHDFX Half Stack. That said, i believe that this guitar need different pups. The vintage pups just don't have enough low end to support the 7th string. The neck is the most amazing neck I've ever played before, so that made shredding a breeze. I believe that if your a shredder, this is an amazing guitar for you. This was my first 7 stringer, and i was VERY pleased with it.
Action, Fit, & Finish	The action was actually very low, it only was adjusted a little bit. There were no flaws of workmanship (which is a very very good thing) and the finish was beautiful! I felt like i was looking out into space when i gazed at the sparkly black pearl finish.
Reliability & Durability	You can depend on this guitar, but if you intend on doing a lot of diving or fluttering with the tremolo, then get a 7620, this trem purely wont keep tune well through that kind of use.

Liked about it	THE NECK=AMAZING The finish was beautiful. Very reliable guitar.
Didn't like	I did not like the pickups. I did not like the inlays. I did not like the lo-trs tremolo.

Overall satisfaction:

4.0

Very good budget 7 string

Sound

This guitar is a monster. I've got mine tuned down a half step, and it gets really heavy. It isn't muddy as i would have thought. I currently have the stock pickups in it and there marvelous, i actually prefer them over seymour duncan blackouts.

For metal this guitar is great, but that isn't all its good for, that's just my style. The tremolo seems very decent for being a lower model ibby tremolo. The neck is actually from a 7620, which plays PHENOMENALLY, very very fast, frets are nicely done.

Liked about it	The neck and pickups are my favorite part, i never thought i could love stock pickups. These sound very very well for stockers. Everythings perfect, the highs mids and lows.. Very articulate.. The neck is about on par with my prestige ibanez.
Didn't like	The finish is really thin and chips easy.
