NGD! My first 7 string, and I still can't believe....

[karpathion]

..I bought I freakin' PRS.

I went to every shop in town, played every 7 string in stock, and this one hit the spot! It looks, feels, and sound amazing!

It's one of the new SE-7's. From my understanding, it's PRS's first factory run 7 string.

If you had told me yesterday that I would have a PRS sitting in my studio today, I would have laughed you right out of my house. I'm impressed, this is a very nice guitar.

Yeah, that should work.

What's the neck profile like?

Just a bit fatter in the middle than the Ibbys. Width is about the same.

Ooooo veddy nice! I was wondering how those played.

Congrats dude!

The width of the neck is something to get used to, but other than that, it's like playing around in silk sheets, " or a very aroused female."
It's very nice.

Dayum these PRS 7s are sexy looking things, congrats bro!
I was a bit skeptical of the 25 inch scale but it seems that many owners have said it does the job just fine for B standard and even Bb standard.

I was thinking the same thing at first. 27" scale "should", work much better. But, hey, if it feels good do it!.. It feels good!

Afterthought: The transition from 6 to 7 strings isn't that hard. It still feels right... You just have to adjust for that b. Once you figure it out, it's gravy!

More than likely, an SH-5. It's what I use in everything these days.

If I were to get a 7 string, I would use an SH-5
I would also lean towards an SE since I love the SE one I have so much.
Never knew they put birds on any SE
