<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">My SC90 has the TOM bridge, but it's a low-profile Gotoh so it sits lower as Carvin necks are straight and have no neck tilt. Their Floyds would sit at the same height since they're recessed. Actually, the SC90 is the only guitar available from Carvin with all four bridge options (TOM, hardtail, Wilkinson, Floyd). It would be really cool, though, if they offered the 7-strings with TOM bridges. Too bad they don't have tilted back necks, as I like the bridge to be a little higher off the body, but it's still not that big of a deal, and they play great!

Re: good 7-string?

I did a while back, but I've changed hosts since then, and they weren't very good, anyway - live shots from a distance w/a digital camera.

Division has been SO messed up (we're looking for a drummer again, our practice space got shut down by the Fire Marshal, our album got delayed again after ProgArts sold us to MetalAges, etc.) that I've never managed to get any good pictures. I keep promising myself that I'll do that, but, you know, things come up...

So I'll promise again to do it. See you in Hot 'Lanta? I'm auuming you're working the show again...

Re: good 7-string?

Yep - I fly in Thurs for the pre show (party a little) then work my ass off for Glenn for 2 days... but I plan on trying to hang a bit more this year (depending on which bands brought their own crews)... so - you and I (and anyone else from this board ) need to ghave a few brews bro!
