Haha:) It's funny to see how much people love the name, Attila which is absolutely a common name in Hungary just like John in the States. It's still metal though:)

kaznie_NL13th July 2010Haha, cool Loomis type guitar man
Sick riff 
prety damn hard >< Great to have you on board!- Attila Voros13th July 2010
This schecter 7 string is a customized Jeff Loomis guitar. What we did was make a little better acces for reaching the higher frets easier, customized the neck for more like a thinner but still fat "'v-type" neck, and of course the paint job. At the end even Jeff didn't recognize it:)
Lately I changed the factory EMG pickups for passive Artec pickups!
Please, feel free to ask anything about the guitar!
Cheerz!

- My notes
Dear GMC fellows,
This is the first Nevermore song/riff I picked to show You here at GMC. The intro riffs are off the first song of the new record, The Obsidian Conspiracy. The song is probably one of the most „nevermorish” song of the record so it is also a good example to show Jeff’s extraordinary guitar and songwriting style. The song is tuned a half step down on a seven string (as usually). The notes are: Bb-Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb
Enjoy it!
