Hi all,

I am thinking of parting with my pre-finished Pit Bull Guitar – EXG-7A – Transparent Honey... looks awesome!

I also installed a Entwhistle Dark Star Pick up in the bridge.

I paid $350 for it not long ago... there is nothing wrong with it just don't play it now I have a couple of nice Schecters.

In great condition - would take $100. Also added some Cobalt Ernie Ball heavy gauge strings to it.

This is the beast here: https://www.pitbullguitars.com/shop/7-string-guitars/exg-7ath-7-string-electric-guitar-transparent-honey/

I also posted what it sounds like here: https://soundcloud.com/user-940579060 (this was before I installed the new pickup).

Cheers, Paul.

Yeah, doesn't seem to make sense but I saw one at a jam session a few months ago and they are like a 6 string bass in that the fret board is wider and you have the option for 2 strings thicker and lower in tone than the low E where some of the tones do crossover to the higher Bass register - for example the 8th string could be tuned to G and therefore same pitch as G on a Bass however being a shorter scale the string will be thicker than a typical 0.45 or 0.50 long scale 34" Bass string. It was a Schecter and sounded quite dark, probably what a baritone may sound like, and not my cuppa tea but would suit anyone into death metal type stuff.

Haha yes I know... might just stick to the 7 string if no one is interested... I went and saw Meshuggah last week and felt inspired! Man they are brutal live!

I picked up an MMM-1 Ibanez baritone (28.5" Scale) off Flea Bay, definitely dark and angry when played dirty. Clean it up and it sounds rather brooding and soulworn. Great fun to thrash.

cheers Paul for the carpark deal at Kosmic Music store ! Sounds great the axe, need to play with the setup, lower the bridge etc. With the drop A tune still found the strings had too much tension for bending, so might experiment with some lower tunings.

Here's a quick sound demo I recorded. Will get a better one once the axe is setup better

I was wondering where you stashed the balaclava 'cause at that price you almost stole it haha.

Agree that once you have sorted the setup and preferred tuning it should be easier to play a recognisable tune.

I find it hard to play a guitar at all if it hasn't got a decent action.
