This is a rundown of the new Schecter model for 2008, the C-7 Blackjack ATX. This is a 7 string that features Seymour Duncan's new Blackout pickups. I give a brief review and do a demo of this guitar with distorted and clean tones. I also compare it to my Schecter Loomis to try and get a feel of Blackouts vs. EMGz.

  • do you find your fingers often hit the knobs when using the high E and B?

    looking into the 8 string

  • @buttholesurfer101 Not really because I usually make a fist of sorts while playing. I prefer a one knob layout though like the Loomis has.

  • you think that 660.85 USA dollars is a good price for a used one?

  • @GooliLoLVideos Maybe if its a year or less old. Otherwise $500-$600 sounds reasonable.

  • @DarkKnight369 Hey man, I know you already talked about this in one of the top comments, but can you get as heavy of a tone out of the Blackouts as you can with say, an EMG 81-7? I'm looking at this guitar, but I'm concerned I won't be able to get the same searing, heavily distorted tones that you can get out of the 81-7.

  • @IPlayGuitarAndStuff1 I haven't played the 81-7. My experience with the 81 on the 6 strings was that it was thin and week. I always put the 85 in the bridge. For A tuning and lower I might have a different opinion on that.

    It really depends what you consider heavy though. The blackouts have more of a lower midrange roar. They sounded more full and heavy compared to the 707s.

  • @Sim2428 Because you touch yourself at night.

  • Why does everyone make demo with what appears to be a cellphone cam or something with the same audio quality?

  • I just ordered the Walnut Satin version of this 7 string. Can't wait!

  • that is a beautiful instrument my friend

  • @fuel126 I am assuming you mean 707's sine the 808's are the 8 string model. I prefer the Blackouts to the EMG 707's. I had the 707's in my Loomis and swapped them for the blackouts.

    The hellraiser is a great guitar. Personally I like the loomis the best because it has the brightest tone woods out of the available Schecter 7 string lineup.

  • Would you recommend this or the Hellraiser? Also, how do the Blackouts compare to 808s?
