Skervesen Raptor 7FF Carved Top
If you're looking at this then you're aware of Skervesen Guitars & how incredible they are… If you aren't aware of them, just take a look at their Facebook page here - https://www.facebook.com/skervesenguitars. If nothing else, check that site out for some of the most drool-inducing guitar porn in existence!
Anyway, here she is… the finest guitar I've ever owned or played. A custom made Skervesen Raptor model 7-string w/ carved top, fanned frets (25.5 - 27 scale), and more. Here's the full specs:
Body - Swamp ash w/ burl poplar carved top - custom finish
Neck - 5 pc rosewood maple 18-20 radius
Fretboard - ebony
Frets - 24 stainless steel
Inlays - none, side fluorescent side dots only
Binding - natural w/ natural headstock & neck purfling
Bridge - ABM
Tuners - Hipshot locking
Straplock - Dunlop flush-mount
3-way switch, push-pull volume for neck pickup coil split
Pickups - BKP Aftermath bridge, Emerald neck
Hardshell Gator case
This guitar sounds & plays like a dream.. almost effortlessly. The pickup combination plus switching & coil-split provides a surprising number of tonal options to include a very nice "strat-neck-pup" bell tone that's addictive. The Aftermath pickup is perfect & not at all limited to higher gain applications (as so many believe it to be). Truly a fine piece of craftsmanship that I hate to part with. Never gigged, and never left my home studio (i.e. downstairs converted bedroom ;-)).
All in I have $3,200 + invested in this guitar & have had it less than a year. Barely even played unfortunately... Due to health & family issues, it must go along with the rest of my cherished gear. $2200.00 shipped & paypal'd No trades. PM if interested, and thanks for looking!
