Agile Interceptor comes with ebony fretboard. But for it's price, god knows what kind of ebony it is!

Actually, what's the tonal characteristic of ebony fretboards anyway?

...and which friggin' standard production line 7-string comes with ebony anyway?

im sure ebony is pretty similar in tone etc, but it doesnt get dirty and its BLACK tongue.gif

didnt you just answer your own question with the agile?

Hehe... I won't really consider the Agile as a standard 7-string... not because it's MIC but because it's 27" scale...

How's the maintenance like for ebony fretboards?

Everdying, you were saying that ebony is similar in tone to maple?

So, despite the utter darkness of its colour, it's a bright wood? biggrin.gif

Any thoughts on the Schecter C-7?

Might be compelled to take it back home from the States next year..........

And from the looks of it, I can pop in a pair of EMG-707 in there!

Why don't you go for the Jeff Loomis signatuer instead? It comes default with 707s and the neck profile is a thin-C IIRC... rclxms.gif

The site is kinda funny. You got a whole bunch of inlay options but they say "NO SHARKFIN INLAYS"! laugh.gif

...and there's always the Vigier Excalibur!

Unfortunately both guitars are hideously expensive! cry.gif

What the...!? Oh my...?!
I don't think even SX would endorse me mou but here's a question to all of you. If SX were to endorse you guitars, and pay you say, RM50,000 a year, would you do it? You must play the SX in all your gigs/concerts/recordings and you must promote the guitar as well in the meantime (sing nice things about it).

You are not allowed to play any other guitar of your choice, well except maybe at home when no one's looking.  tongue.gif
*
Wouldn't mind... with the RM50k I'd secretly buy a kickash custom shop 7, a dozen kickass p/ups, a Krankenstein etc....

and ask SX to make me a custom 7-string with maple fretboard, 27 frets, EMG81-7/707 p/ups (coz pretty much everything sounds the same with EMGs) and play it for exactly one year.

Then, adios SX! brows.gif

Argh, custom KXK SII-7 with Maple fretboard.... can die or not.... cry.gif

You know what the really really sick thing is about KXK options? They can make 27-fret 7-strings.

'course, it'll probably cost like RM8-9k... shocking.gif

Argh... here's another one... with ebony fretboard... check out the joint on that thing!

probably the same weight or a bit lighter.

Ok la...maybe I should rephrase the question again! You are endorsed by SX but you're no Class A endorsee, just I don't know maybe Class B or Class C, whereby you are not allowed to custom make your own SX guitar, and you are to use whatever production model there is.

Where got such good deal one?! Custom shop SX until it plays like an ESP/Caparison?!!
mad.gif

Eleh, like that... just take whatever friggin' guitar they force you to play and tahan for one year. Small price to pay for RM50k mou....

unless you mean that you can only get SX stuff up to RM50k... then die mou. Open shop and sell off later mou... laugh.gif

Mr Blacktrix, where there's a will there's a way. Don't splurge on other gear there and use the cash to upgrade to Seventh, err... First Class mou! rclxms.gif




/sigh. After seeing all the custom pix of KXK and seeing all the options available, the J-Custom looks sooooo production line. sad.gif

if 2k USD, you got quite a lot of choices. I think you can get the Jeff Loomis for that price range.

beatmasta, the KXK default fingerboard is ebony. can change to maple FOC... leng mou...

eh, EQ yer pinky on left or right hand busted? don't worry, can still play with 3 fingers mou... get a 27 fret neck and don't play anything below 10th fret mou! thumbup.gif

Anyway, I just saw Chris Broderick's Betcha Can't Play This 8-finger tapping vid... his guitar looked soooo cool... I'm sure EQ and Beatmasta would agree.... brows.gif

...the playing was friggin' sick. I always thought that it would be some low-gain or clean tone playing. But he use quite medium to slightly hi-gain setting and still quite clean. I like the way his left hand would quickly mute the rest of the strings when he taps with his right hand.
