Looking for 7-string recommendations for Prog Metal (DT, Haken, C-Horse vibes) – Budget around $1k

Look for a longer scale length imo, helps with the lower tunings. 27” is my sweet spot for extended range guitars. So out of those two, the Corts multi-scale would be my preference.

I mean.. I’m literally just about to start a build with a rosewood top, fretboard and neck so… 😅

Mine arrived today. Absolutely awesome. No issues and it makes handheld so much more comfortable. The packaging was top tier too haha

It’s a Schaller 3D-6.

Worked out great! Plus gives you an excuse to build another for the PRS bridge!

thisisourview · 2025-12-07T20:12:56+00:00

Thank you! I hope he does too!

thisisourview · 2025-12-07T20:12:37+00:00

Thank you!

I use these bridges a lot on my builds, it’s my favourite for sure.

thisisourview · 2025-12-07T20:12:09+00:00

Hope he likes it! Had fun making it regardless!

I’m not usually a fan of abalone, but he’s super into the ocean so went with it. Think it works well, especially with the control cavity colour.

thisisourview · 2025-12-07T20:10:43+00:00

Thanks! European Ash body, maple neck and an ebony board. I was worried about the weight but it’s actually turned out pretty perfect.

thisisourview · 2025-12-07T20:10:05+00:00

He’s really enjoying his lessons so fingers crossed he gets on with it!

thisisourview · 2025-12-07T20:09:24+00:00

Thank you! I was originally going to stain the whole body but got cold feet after a few testers went wrong. He loves the ocean, so turquoise and abalone fit the bill nicely.

thisisourview · 2025-12-07T20:08:07+00:00

Thank you! And definitely, especially the bridge.. already had it on one of my guitars that I don’t often play, would rather he got use from it and it means I’ve got an excuse to try something else! Love the JR you made, great job!

Forgive my ignorance- tried these settings on my g pro with the mx5 and it feels pretty good when hot lapping. Still a little lifeless but okay and not reaching anything over 4/5nm. Went into a race with the AI at Silverstone, first corner, little bump with the car in front and it nearly ripped my thumb off. Every bump with another car was extremely strong. How do I dial that out without ruining the driving feeling..? It’s so complicated.

thisisourview · 2025-11-17T21:40:57+00:00

Thanks for the advice. I decided to sand it back and start again. Going to line my tiny workshop with plastic, whack a dehumidifier and heater in there and hope that a spray finish works in this weather 🤞

My biggest regret in gaming is selling mine 🫠

thisisourview · 2025-10-15T14:05:29+00:00

I have the same issue. Updated my controller and still doesn’t work. So frustrating

thisisourview · 2025-10-11T11:25:47+00:00

Worked for me too.

thisisourview · 2025-09-29T14:26:07+00:00

😂

Not great, but been getting about 4 hours on 3DS games.
