Seems like a baritone vs 7 string in person death match are in order. I wonder how my wife would feel about having 2 guitars show up at the house at the same time?
On some forum she be posting a NSD thread.
Baritone, 7 string or 7 string baritone?

My vote- 25.5" 7 string with 10's, with a heavy bottom.
I've been playing my EBMM JR Cutlass a lot, which I've now had for 6 months, and I'm totally used it. If I can start playing a 7 at 61, anybody can.

No comparison to the baseball bats of old. They're not Ibanez thin, but some of them (like the one I posted) is damn close.I saw that Munky sig and was very intrigued. I did wonder how my normal palm resting/muting techniques would go with that thing in the way thoughI was looking Solar's Amazon store yesterday
Ordering from them direct right now would SUCK because "extra fees"
...and my on the spectrum about fret markers problem
The original Schecter I had decades ago that Drew talked about in whatever other thread that was was a HUGE turnoff. I really have to get past that. They do sell on Amazon as wellI am cool with Esp LTD as well at this point? I'd like something that would be ready to play out of the box if possible.

A half step drop down using a pitch shifter would be so unnoticeable too!And LB riffs on a 6 string and have it be close enough to C# standard to not be that big of a deal for the singer

This is what I got but black, and cheaper for some reason: https://www.sweetwater.com/store/de...-1007-ht-baritone-electric-guitar-black-blast

Ones I currently like that I haven't posted:
Baritone 6 26.5 scale:
Baritone 6 27 scale:
26.5 scale 7 (that's probably $1k+ after "special fees" with no fretmarkers and no returns AKA I'm not getting it)

One of my favorite aspects of these ESPs is the truss rod wheel.

Only thing I don't necessarily like is the headstock. If I am being picky (which I obviously am
)

I kinda felt the same way but it’s grown on me tbh. Just like a variation of a Strat headstock and I like that the strings don’t angle off after the nut.Only thing I don't necessarily like is the headstock. If I am being picky (which I obviously am
You should be picky at that price point

I loathe Fishman's as well. So much criteria to keep from buying things

The Fishman’s will probably go eventually. I figure I can make almost enough to throw in a set of SD’s.I loathe Fishman's as well. So much criteria to keep from buying things

The XS100 comes tomorrow. I'm going to see how 3 semitones does. If it's good; drop B can be the new low on 6 in A440 running drop D physical tuning. Which will cover most nu metal with a little transposing on the Korn stuff.

It is. Like; precariously so. If it was the same $ as the more metal looking ESP (with EMGs); I would have pulled the Amazon trigger on it. It was 3 bills more and this is already a crap shoot as is so None More Black edition it is
