I spent the first minute wondering what was wrong with the sound, but then I saw that the MySpace sound was muted xD

Sweet Guitar. I have a Dean EVO and just love it!

How do 7 strings work? The 7th string is generally tuned to 'B' right? Do you have to think about playing in any special way to accomodate the new string?

Yeah your doing great on this ax.

Always exciting to have a new one isn't it?

Enjoy playing it

Yeah, the standard tuning is BEADGBE, But it play it BbEbAbDbGbBbEb so the strings are a bit more loose, Making it easier to bend the strings, since there a bit heavier than the normal gauge for a 6. I play it almost the same as 6, The only thing I had to change was learning to realize that when Im playing on the low B, Its not the same chord as when I was playing on low E on a 6 string, therefore i had to change leads and solos and such to fit the new chord progression.

Other than that, It felt quite natural to me smile.gif

It is very good mate. I couldn't hear the guitar to loudly tho, but I think you played it nicely. Well done! smile.gif

Yeah, you can hear the string better than my guitar, Looks like ill have to play a bit louder next time.

There is this guy, He is a local vendor but he buys second hand and factory direct and sells guitars for dirth cheap. He sold me this one for only $215, Cause the headstock has a tiny scratch on it, and he fixed the scratch so you only see it if you know its there. He has a Dean Hardtail on layaway for me as well that im gonna be pickin up soon as well smile.gif
