Might be fun to try a 7 string guitar. I've never played one before. I'm an intermediate player (quite far from experienced but definitely not a novice) and a 7 string could be fun for improvising. Has anyone here played one before?

Half of my guitars were 7 strings for a bit there.
They're pretty nice, depending on the pickups.
From memory it's only an extra 6 notes or something, but dropping it down to a gives you nearly an octave or something more, and you can play a bunch more chords.
But, it's pretty good. If you play jazz, or other forms of clean stuff, and not metal, you can use the lower strings for bass like notes. There's a few really good jazz or blues or something players that use 7, 8 and 9 string guitars for it. Gets some really nice sounds.
I personally juse use them for drop b stuff, plus any 7 string songs I've learned (since one of my favourite bands uses 7 strings now)
