TheDeafElectrician's Multiscale 7 Build

i have been in a gear metamorphosis for my recent memory.

sold all my tube amps,all my pedals,all of my multi fx,all of my axes except for the collectibles(well,even some of the collectibles).

to go with the sad but imminent future in modeling/pc based gear.

with that i decided to make the jump to 7 string Multiscale guitars.

the thing that always hindered me from purchasing one was the lack of a floating tremolo.

so i designed one.i wish i could show you the pics but i cant risk this idea being stolen by the interweberz.

also,against my better judgement i WILL post a mockup of the guitar i designed.





Specs:

Mahogany tone block/Alder wings chambered
Rosewood neck/ebony fingerboard
25.5-27 scale length
SS jumbo frets
4 string scallop on frets 13-27
Fiber Optic inlays
Piezo/both/Mag 3-way rotary
6-way rotary pickup selector
Bare Knuckle Pickups
jem style jack
Sperzel locking tuners

this build will take place from now until December,so it will be slow.
But,i will keep it updated.

Any ideas as far as specs or wild/unique features are welcomed.

tell me what you think.

HAHA!! Success.

the trem test went exactly as planned.

i decided to go with a purpleheart/carbon fiber neck.

ill post pics when the neck gets built some time next week.

i wish you the best for this invention
but i still cant understand why you sold all your equipment including your tube amps....

i sold my custom Carvin V3 brand new for 350

and a mts3200 and all four of their cabs for small sums.

modeling is the future bro.

well you could give me some gear and i could give you some software then hehe

actually,if you could find an standalone midi automation program,i would be in your debt forever.

i have got a RARE Esp LTD M-207 7 string guitar which has 7 strings with a floating bridge, with a EMG 81-7 pickup on the bridge and a EMG afterburner 20db switch, plays nice but i mostly use my schecter limited C8 8 string guitar mainly

i wish i could get into the shecters,but sadly they leave a bad taste in my mouth for some unknown reason.

those C8s are the shit though.

an 8 will most likely be my next build.

1 low 1 high.

i dont think i could ever do the 2 low strings.just too metal for me.:breakingbeerbottleoverrandomguyshead:

It's looking great dude

btw i can do guitar mockups if people are interested.

thursday ill be back in the shop.

i will be gluing the carbon fiber/purple heart neck together and i will also be joining the 3 piece body:Mahogany tone block with oak wings.

still need to decide on a hardware color.thinking antiqued black.

any suggestions are welcomed.
