Bought a Hellraiser 7 today

[Inearthed]

Hellraiser 7 is on my list for guitars I will eventually pick up. How'd you pull it off at $600?? Good price, if you ask me.

Thank you, Mr. Postwh0ring to get over 100!

no way!

Schecter 7-strings rock! I've got a 007 Elite (the H/S version instead of the H/H) and I really dig it. I got it last year from MF for $519.99. They normally go for $599.99, but I found it on another site and they matched the price. The Duncan Design pups it came with weren't bad sounding, just a little weak in the gain department, so I changed them to a Duncan Custom in the bridge and DiMarzio Blaze single in the neck. It sounds awesome now.

Congrats, Nick! Enjoy the new axe.

if you grow tired of it you can give it to me! Remember I said it first!

[kmanick]

no hellraisers in Sweden?

[Thoraby]

They cost about 1300$ new here. I refuse to pay that much for a guitar.

Congrats, that's a nice guitar! How do you like the longer scale? Does the low B sound better than on your m-207? I had an Ibanez 7-string with the shorter 25,5" scale, and the sound of the low B was a little disapointing.

They cost about 1300$ new here.

Same here. I'll probably score a 7-string Hellraiser from eBay, it's cheaper even with the taxes and shipping. The recent Nevermore gig I went to got me gassing for a 7-string, and the Hellraiser 7 seemed to do it's job pretty nicely in the hands of Jeff Loomis

[kmanick]

when you saw Nevermore was Jeff playing a hellraiser with a floyd on it?
I've seen some clips with him playing one and I hope they release it as the "Loomis" model soon.
I want it and I want it now

The floyded hellraiser is just a standard guitar with an ofr-7 on it I think, he currently is playing a standard hr live though. I'd expect a NAMM announcement of the Loomis sig, cant wait!

[ExodusAttack]

IIRC, Loomis played both the standard HR and the floyd rose equipped one, so he definitely has one with a floyd. And yeah, a seven string Hellraiser with a floyd would probably sell like hot cakes. I prefer a tune-o-matic though.

Congrats Nick! On the guitar and your girl, she's a cutie. Mine turns two in November (terrible twos coming soon...). That looks like a sweet guitar but I'm not familiar with it so I checked the specs on MF. Nice! Mahogany, XJ frets, real EMGs, etc. After thinking about a 7 for a while you've really jumped in, you've already got 2 and want a custom GMW. I still have my Washburn 7 but have hardly touched it in the last year or more. I bought it 2 1/2 years ago to bash out some nu-metal crap like Korn, POD, System,etc. but I just don't play that stuff anymore (unless I'm having an off day -lol).
