      You'll have to let me know how that turns out. I have, possibly, the only neck Crazy 8 and it is good.

      I have one of those cheapy Washburn 7s that I threw some Dimarzios in. It sounds and plays much better than I expected, but I need to get a decent 7 string one of these days.

          I really don't have neck "preference", just a preference for the over feel of the instrument. Generally, I really like Jackson, Parker, Hamer, and a number of the different Peavey V-types (over the years). I guess the right Ibby has never landed in my hands. Even the original Jems and Universe 7s weren't my thing.

          I am thinking a Carvin would well enough for a seven. I have had one of their guitars before and they resonante a little differently and I would have to break out the router for a PATB style pup to fit, but it would be good enough.

            Well if you go with a Carvin ,you can let it made for a PATB...But you have to make the contract in Carvin shop.One of the guys in 7 string forum did it!
            Schecter is another choice!

                FINALLY, it's here!!!
                After all these months of patiently waiting it's finally in my hands!

                I'm so excited I've actually been hearing the namesake song in my head for the past 20 or so minutes!!!

                Now to call my tech and arrange when I'm gonna install it (my Strat is already in his hands for fret crowning/leveling).

                BTW, where do you think it'll shine more, on my MiM Strat (now SSS) or my bubinga Strat copy (made by the afore mentioned tech)?

                Here are the two siblings:
                (Click the thumbnails to see the full-sized photos)

                The Strat is a 2000 MiM Standard with Maple neck/fretboard, the Strat copy (from here on known as Marlin) is a 2006-2007 (made last Christmas) HSS SuperStrat(?) with Bubinga body, Hard Maple neck and a thick strip (thicker than production guitars) of dark Rosewood fingerboard.

                What do you think?

                  Talk is cheap...who plays extreme metal and has a Crazy 8 installed?

                  Looking for sound clips...don't care how good it is...just want to hear some insane metal with the crazy 8...

                  I bought one for my project Hamer Diablo (which is getting painted right now) and I can't wait any longer to hear it.

                  Tell me where!!!

                    Acsension,If it's too dark try dangling it from a pickup mount. Drilling pickups into the body totally boost the lows. In my superstrat some pickups are cool but in my Les Paul drilling to the body makes it real WOOF-y. The HM strat's setup for the two s/c p'ups to be drilled into the body. I have a Hot Rails neck in the neck and nothing in the bridge. I am going to modify the pickguard to make it dangle because it's just too dark. Aside from repeated drilling/dingling experiments I know it isn't the pickup. A hot rails neck in the neck of a Les Paul running straight into a 1meg pot is a MONSTER! I loved it and I'm going to do the same mod on my HM. The only exception I felt was cool was drilling an uncovered vintage Super 70 into the body ala EVH. It made my HM strat sound pretty close in EQ to my Les Paul which had the matching p'up (covered) dangling in the bridge. Those pickups are Icepick bright without the covers. I think that's why it sounded so good drilled into the bridge of the HM strat. Without the cover,Dangling in the BR of the Paul it was too bright...needed to put the cover back on. The morale of this story? Try dangling from a pickguard. I think you'll like the change better than what you have.

                      There is no such thing as "extreme" metal, just metal - pick your tempo:
