The review would be a lot better if your microphone were closer to the amplifier and further away from the guitar. It's hard to get a good picture of the sound when i hear the sound from the plectrum all the time.

@patwotrik i completl agre with you mate but theres only so much you can do with a webcam buddy,

[buttholesurfer101]

have you played higher end 8 strings? does this guitar feel cheap in comparison, as if this guitar is like the Squier of Schecters?

[twittheshred]

@buttholesurfer101 In short, no it doesn't. I have also played a Schecter damien elite which feals practicaly exsactly the same.

Is the neck as thick as some schecters? Ive heard some horror stories over schecter necks,but thats probably from the die hard ibanez players with those paper thin wizards,haha.

[twittheshred]

@rockerdude29 I havn't played to many schecters but i recon over half the time it's just fan boy bashing. the neck on this isn't as small as i il'd like but it's pretty much flat and very playable.

What amp/effect are you using?

[TheSuperblackmetal]

Wow, you made me want this guitar. xD

[trentnmiller]

I watch this allot just for the Inspector Gadget part, and as the lower post said getting an omen 8 and gonna put 808x's into it, that and maybe the 19:1 locking tuners from the atx c-8. Only on the Ramen diet saving for it part atm though.

Thanks man, my Omen should be arriving soon :)

[rockerdude29]

@assbutt102 Ive heard awesome stuff about D activators,Im getting some for an Ibanez 7 string as soon as I get it.I think if I get this Omen 8,Im either getting 808Xs or D activators.

@rockerdude29 yeah dude, i highly recommend em if emgs or bare knuckle are out of someones price range, they tighten up the low end a lot and the bridge pick up is mint on clean stuff
