The 7-String Hellraiser: An Extra String Goes a Long Way
You'll have more than enough tone to go around with that extra low B string. Seven-stringed axes are in a class of their own, and once you shoulder this baddie, you'll hear the advantage instantly. The slightly-longer-than-normal scale length of 26.5" will keep that low B string from causing any annoying string buzz, so you can focus more on playing without interruption.Two EMG Active 707tw Humbuckers
Your signal will show no mercy with a pair of EMG Active 707tw humbuckers on your side. Both of these pickups dish out some serious tonal mayhem by capturing all seven strings and crafting an output just dying to hit your amplifier. These monsters of tone also have a coil-split feature via your push/pull volume pots. No matter how low or how high you play, your tone simply will not be ignored.A Mahogany Body with Style
Mahogany bodies will yield a dark and somewhat menacing resonance by pushing on the lows… read more and mids. The quilted maple top will bring in a touch of high end to brighten things appropriately, and the abalone binding adds a modest touch of visual sophistication.Buttery Rosewood Fingerboard and Mahogany Neck
It's no easy task to get seven strings to fit on a neck and still yield a comfortable feel, but your C-7 Hellraiser's three-piece mahogany neck delivers beyond expectations. All 24 frets boast a tight and cozy action, and the super smooth rosewood fingerboard is addicting to the touch. Get your fingers ready for some ultra-fast shredding and let your hellraising performance begin!Features:

"Nasty guitar!"
Verified Customer

Worth the money; Solid instrument and sounds beautiful. Buy it.
Sound
Sounds great with the EMG active pups in it. The cleans are bright, smooth and clear, and the heavier tones are just as much so. The lows never sound muddy, even while I play in Drop G#. Coil-tapping the pickups creates a tone that's great for jazz or blues.
Features
With this guitar you're getting everything you asked for, and any versatile musician can take advantage of and enjoy most every feature this guitar offers.
Ease of Use
There's a slight learning curve to learning to be proficient with a seven string, but it's not too hard - Don't let it discourage you from getting one! Of course, I recommend you try a seven string before you buy one, to see if you like it.
Quality
Constructed flawlessly. It would last quite a few years, especially in the hands of a caring owner. Accidents do happen though, and I feel like this guitar can handle it.
Manufacturer Support
N/A. Haven't needed support.
The Wow Factor
EMG 707s and a beautiful finish all with seven strings. Very desirable.
Musical Background:
Playing guitar for 8 years
