What's up fellow 7-stringers. I just got a new LACS 7 for the upcoming US Vai tour. Thought you might be interested in seeing it. Hope to see you on tour.

Wow, I think that makes up for that striped eysoar you had before.

Meh, i love the finish on the body but im not too sure about the neck yet :P

Im sure it plays awesome tho, congrats on getting yet another.

Dave, what's up with the lack of locking nut? Aren't you afraid of the strings coming off the nut when doing a massive dive?

Aside from that, I totally dig the looks of it!

I saw that over at sevenstring.org - that's gorgeous.

I'm not a whammy bar gymnast so not many dive bombs for me. But I have abused the guitar plenty and it stays in tune perfectly. Plus, a standard nut is just less to deal with and I think a guitar sounds better without them (less metal on steel contact = warmer tone). Think LP, Strat, etc.

hi dave,
this is pretty cool
i love the neck, maple fretboard 7strings, and its a S series, those are comfortable to play while standing up compare to rg body

NickCormier · #8 08-29-2007, 12:26 PM

Very awesome Dave

Theres not enough maple fretboard 7s out there.

love the body, although im not entirely sure about the neck! if theres one thing your LACS all have in common it is that they're quite distinctive though, so good to see you kept that up.

dont ding her on tour!

DavejWeiner · #10 08-29-2007, 08:09 PM

Thanks guys. She's a killer player. Hopefully Ibanez will get more like this out soon.

im sorry but it look's like someone took a S and pooped on it, I'm sure it plays nice but eh, wow I'm afraid to touch the thing plus a ZR 7? eh...

Hey Dave I'll see you at the Grove on the 9th and at the Wiltern on the 11th of September, I'll be backstage on the 9th at the Grove. Hope to see you there, maybe we can talk Ibanez if you don't mind

September 28 at Starland in Sayreville who's meeting me there??? I will be there front row (getting there 3 hours early). Maybe Dave can get me back stage so I can get a closer look haha. Don't make me wear a bright pink shirt (not like I have one) lol.

I like the lack of locking nut, as its probably a good change. IM curious but did you get this ideal from tony mcalpine? His carvins come stock like this too dont they? I have an old les paul with a kahler tremolo, i removed the locking nut, and installed sperzel locking tuners..........awesome tone actually, the kahler leaves something to be desired, were it a floyd i would be perfectly content with that guitar.
