Great coverage and love your enthusiasm. The only thing I would have liked to have seen was some low B in your playing. Have you got any other videos that might cover this? I noted you mentioned how it's not like a traditional 7 string - I tried a Schecter Keith Merrow Legacy 7 recently and it instantly felt like home. Super light and slim body (probably close to Ibanez S range) and the neck was buttery smooth. Definitely keen to see what one of these feels like. Beautiful looks on this one, similar vibes to my frozen ocean RG in my profile pick and mine also has Fishman, birdseye maple and stainless steel frets 🤘🤘

That’s awesome of you mate, thanks so much. It means a ton to me! So, I am a trem fan, I definitely prefer to have one but for drop tuning it would be a pain in the ass, definitely. I personally would favour a fixed bridge over the rich lite board if I was changing tunings a lot or even going from standard to drop because even that change in tension puts the whole thing out of whack easily on the strandberg trem. More so than others it seems. I hope that helps and you get something that suits you, thanks again! 🤘

Once you go Strandberg you can't go back! It's funny how some people find Richlite a dealbreaker. It makes for a more stable neck and better playing experience, but when Ola first announced the Richlite incorporation it generated controversy. To each their own I guess. I think you would find the Boden Metal NX7 the perfect match. I'm aiming for that model to complement the buttery warm sounding Fusion I have.

I recently tried this guitar and i have to say that i am disappointed. I like the weight and the size of the guitar, but some design features aren't as thought out as i want them to be. The cutaway at the bottom of the guitar that's supposed to make playing in the classical position while having the guitar on only one leg does not work without further support. The guitar is too small under your struming hand to securely lock the guitar in place and a little head dive issue makes this way of holding the guitar exhausting. I tried not to throw the guitar on the flor and started sitting in a very tight and uncomfortable mannor. The next issue i found is, that the tuners feel really bad. I think that some sort of tool to give you a little more leverage to turn the tuners would solve this. And now my biggest problem with this guitar. The endure neck is not for everyone. I couldn't propperly play in the higher frets because i don't place my thumb the same way the next profile is guiding me to. That's such a dealbreaker. It's like relearning to walk. All my musclememory was useless just because the neck did not allow me to place my thumb the way i wanted to. I just wish there was a strandberg, that had a conventional neckprofile, a little longer body to tuck under your arm and smoother tuners.
