    GS-7Q On order

    Super exited !!! Can’t wait to get my hands on this. It will be my first time building a guitar, I have modified guitars but never anything this in depth so I’m nervous haha. This will be my first 7 string so I’m super excited. I will make sure to keep the thread updated with progress as the build develops

    I'm doing the 6 sting version of this right now, would have been tempted by the 7 string if it had been available at the time. It's a pretty nice kit, not without a few issues but I've been able to work though them so far. Looking forward to seeing your similar build.

    Just read through your thread YIKES the delivery company looks like they threw the box about, the soldering iron and wet cloth trick has worked amazingly though ! I’d never have thought to do that . It was the 7 string that gave me the push to get one as I’ve wanted a 7 for years and thought this may be a cheaper alternative and I can make something mine shipping cost uk VAT and import fees later I have now paid for a schector hell raiser haha
