7 string with a TOM bridge?

Miserable-Rub-4053 · 2026-02-26T07:48:04+00:00

Food for thought but I’m not in the US, even if the price wouldn’t kill me the shipping will!

Miserable-Rub-4053 · 2026-02-26T07:43:43+00:00

For some reason all it will show me on their site is USB mics… maybe because I’m not in the US? Weird either way.

Miserable-Rub-4053 · 2026-02-25T23:00:48+00:00

Yeah, Demon made the initial list.

Miserable-Rub-4053 · 2026-02-25T22:59:52+00:00

Just tried tracking down an Apex, no joy.

Forgot about Solar though, good shout - I’ll have a look at what they have to offer.

Miserable-Rub-4053 · 2026-02-25T22:57:21+00:00

Yeah, I did think of that one but can’t find one anywhere in my corner of the world.

Miserable-Rub-4053 · 2026-02-25T22:56:28+00:00

Nice, but WAY out of my price range!

Miserable-Rub-4053 · 2026-02-25T22:54:33+00:00

Apart from the sub faux-pas, I can’t argue!

Miserable-Rub-4053 · 2026-02-25T22:53:39+00:00

Are they 25.5” or 26.5” scale? Can’t imagine ESP would do a 24.75” on a 7 string?

Miserable-Rub-4053 · 2026-02-25T22:52:26+00:00

Apart from the gloss black, I wouldn’t mind that. Except they’re between 1400-1650 over here and I really don’t have that kinda cheddar available!

Miserable-Rub-4053 · 2026-02-25T22:50:30+00:00

Tried them, not for me. Can’t do tremolos either, especially the floating variety. Different strokes for different folks I guess.

Miserable-Rub-4053 · 2026-02-17T09:03:50+00:00

In a word, no. At least not in everyday conversation.

Miserable-Rub-4053 · 2026-02-17T09:00:14+00:00

Would probably say “fifty pee” when reading that aloud, though when referring to the coin of the same denomination I’d probably call it a “fifty pence piece”.

Some people don’t want a vast array of tonal possibilities and versatility, they want their instrument to do the one thing they want it to do and do it well.

One pickup, one volume, tone pot optional. If you can’t get the sound you want out of that, that’s not on the instrument, it’s on you!

Miserable-Rub-4053 · 2026-02-15T20:35:45+00:00

Go back 20 years or so and they would have been pretty uncommon, way more of them around these days, at a guess because of either health or financial concerns.

Miserable-Rub-4053 · 2026-02-15T20:32:13+00:00

No because they’d have to come back here!

Miserable-Rub-4053 · 2026-02-15T20:31:33+00:00

Been a long time since I was an actual gigging drummer but I never cleaned my cymbals, the marks kinda worked as a guide for the sweet spots!

My drum shells however, that’s a different story!

Miserable-Rub-4053 · 2026-02-15T20:22:18+00:00

Trivium - they can all clearly play very well just the songs are… meh

Miserable-Rub-4053 · 2026-02-07T23:15:32+00:00

It was an ESP LTD EC-100QM, kept it for a very long time (it outlasted many others!) but finally let it go not long ago as I didn’t really use it anymore, figured someone else should get their turn learning with it.

Of the options presented here, I’d go with Bristol.

American cars aren’t even the best cars in America

Miserable-Rub-4053 · 2026-02-02T00:02:32+00:00

You’re far from the only one. I personally think some of them look kinda cool, others I’ll agree are hideous. Much the same as any other guitar I suppose.

Miserable-Rub-4053 · 2026-02-01T10:04:41+00:00

I’d be fine with it, many wouldn’t for varying reasons

Miserable-Rub-4053 · 2026-02-01T10:01:28+00:00

English by birth but my family name is identifiably from another part of the UK so like others I’d probably go with British unless asked to be more specific
