I have an Agile 9-string (see sig) and I love it. I had an Ibanez Prestige RG2027XVV, a Schecter 8-string, and several other Ibanezes - all with custom DiMarzio pickups. I made the decision to sell them all within a week of getting the Agile. Honestly, for the price I paid, I was expecting something horrific. When I opened the case, my jaw hit the ground. It's better looking than my old USRG30TP. More, it plays really nicely. And, the pickups (Cepheus) sound great - and this is coming from someone who had aftermarket pickups on all of the his guitars.
I got the 28" scale model of the Interceptor. Pretty sweet, you can downtune as much as you want and no flubbyness, I tried the 7th string all the way to E and still sounds tight. I use .10 on my strings too, although if you are not going to go that low I don't think beyond 25,5 is necessary, cause the guitar is BIG.Thanks for the comments.
For a 7 string, what scale would you recomand, concidering im into modern fast thin necks.
Ooo didnt see you have answered.
Thanks.
Went through a couple 7 string phases. I'm like you; love hearing others play them, but I fall on my face when it comes to navigating the damn fretboard of it. I still can't believe how much having one extra string threw me off. I'd get vertigo looking at all the strings on the neck.I just "discovered" Animals as Leaders this weekend (heard of them, never heard them) and I've got a sudden spike in interest for a 7+ string guitar. This is actually comical because I can barely play 6 strings. Anyway - cool guitar and really nice playing.
