    Honestly didn't imagine I'd be seeing one for sale, but sure look at that!

    I'd nearly consider buying it myself, but seeing as I'm after ordering my BC Rich custom, doesn't look like an option.
    Oh well.

    It doesnt have to be low - there are more possibilities with 7 and 8 strings than just downtuning.

    Maybe because he can't swap to a bass mid-song? Kinda would've been the obvious thought.

    F*ck if I had money, I'd buy it.
    Can't imagine how much of a ballache it would be to play though. Could my fingers reach the two extra things? I wonder...

    Friggin' awesome piece of kit though. I'd rather have a rosewood or ebony fretboard though. The maple really puts me off.

    Oh well in THAT case, I must abandon any things of ever having a guitar with more than six strings. Just because Mustaine said so. You know, lets make guitars with more than six strings illeagal! Because, Mustaine doesn't think there's need. I guess Dream Theater, Morbid Angel, and loads of other bands will have to abandon their guitars, and re-write all their songs... Just because Mustaine thinks you don't need more than six strings.

    For christ sakes... :rolleyes:
