Dude- fuck yeah

[@karterestill]

This video is 4 years old, and I still come back to it every now and again, because I still can't believe these absolute works of art exist. Keith picked the best company to flesh out his vision. In my opinion these are hands down the best guitars ever made in ALL Variations. Thank you Keith!

[@RabeaMassaad]

These are beautiful man, congratulations!

Show us a video of your guitar playing dumbfuck

[@gordonpowell4292]

@Science Fiction tough guy over here. U stupid fuck.

[@obundoben82]

@Science Fiction Lmao he's better than you'll ever be

[@rickfeith6372]

Bea is a madman

[@55Ignis]

@@rickfeith6372 I have a Damien Elite 7 so I'd probably put Keith's pickups in it before buying his signature guitars. I'm not good enough to be worthy of playing his anyway.,

[@NickScott86]

You thanked the KM owners at the end, but we need to be thanking you too. Thanks for speccing out such great instruments and for shaking things up! 🤘

[@fromthistexasbreath]

Pretty awesome having watched you go from bald and playing Agiles years ago, to long hair and super boutique style USA Schecters with your name on it. You deserve it!

[@danieljones1782]

Picked up a MK II a couple months ago and it still puts a smile on my face every time I pick it up. Hands down one of the best guitars Ive ever played

[@55Ignis]

Closest I have to that is the Damien Elite 7 from years ago. similar body style ad sounds great

[@obicross]

i've had KM7 mk1, and its one of the best production 7 string i've ever played. i'm stoked to try this one when it hit the stores!

[@joeyvpoisonfree]

khoirus sobri I fully agree

[@syzygy2464]

i remember for years, schecter hellraisers being kind of a meme and butt of a lot of jokes in the guitar community but I've been playing schecters for years, even the cheap ones play well and are dependable. as i've stepped up the models I've owned over the years I've never been disappointed. My neck step up is definitely going to be one of these and I'm really looking forward to it.

[@777666hxc]

I love my hellraiser solo 🤘🏽 I’ve modded mine to the nine!! Still feels great after 10 plus years

[@Hippo007]

PLEASE bring Conquering Dystopia back!!! Keith Merrow = BEAST

[@TobyKBTY]

When the KM 1 came out, I was still a student dreaming about owning a "real" guitar. The MKII came out and blew my mind, and I just graduated at the time. Now the MKIII is out and I gotta tell you...it feels like a sign. I've bee working at my first job for a couple of years now and I'm proud to tell you that I'm gonna buy this one pretty soon. It's been a long time coming, but I can't wait to own the sig of my favorite youtube metal guitarist! Thank you as well, Keith for the inspiration!

[@williamanderson9714]

I LOVE how they changed the headstock for this model.

[@cloudrun654]

I think they would see more sales if they used this headstock on their 3x3 guitars.

[@toemasmeems]

@@cloudrun654 which 3x3? they have a few I have one that is the traditional c1 headstock, I’m not crazy about the tempest and worse yet the S. Gates one the km7 has the best one IMO

[@adamgreen8358]

Own one of the first releases of this guitar and it’s without question the best 7 I’ve ever played out of many high end custom builds and great offerings from other prominent builders. Plays like a dream and sounds phenomenal. Quite easy on the eyes too.

[@KeithMerrow]

I'm really glad to hear that!

[@ToxicxEternity]

congrats on the guitar Keith! Had the pleasure of playing a version of it at NAMM with the new sig Fluence and it sounded / played amazingly. \m/

[@johndargoczi]

Schecter is just stepping up their game a lot recently, I'm really excited about all their new guitars, especially the C-1 SLS Elite, and these KM models... freakin' beasts :)

[@tiffanyg4091]

Just received mine last week.. I have now found my favorite guitar. I'm sure that I will be using this for years to come. Great build. Awesome pickups. Thankyou Keith. Thankyou Schecter. Thankyou Fishman.

[@Emoboijeffrey]

Really miss seeing your videos. So exciting all the new stuff coming!

[@silentwhisperstudios7808]

I can see the love & passion that you guy's. Put into everything you do. 👍

[@PrismaticCS]

My god dude, I've been subscribed to you ever since 2011 and watching this video... the first thing that comes to mind is how fucking far you've gone. I remember when you first started talking about your gear on KZbin. Holy shit man.. you're the best. Absolutely zero competition. Keep rocking on man!

[@Babs42]

I'll never get used to seeing you with hair ;).

[@Mee0tchy]

This is amazing. As soon as I caught wind of this project I started saving up, and now I'm stoked beyond belief. The vision put into designing this axe is incredibly impressive. Not to mention how awesome Keith has been to his fans and customers throughout the process. This will be a lifer. To quote Wayne..."It will be mine. Oh yes, it will be mine."

[@msi1985]

This was definitely a cool video to watch. My guitar was not assembled in the United States, but I still appreciate my KM7 MK3 to the moon and back! It has been years since I was this inspired to pick an instrument

[@satch72]

Damn man, I'm so excited for you, proud of you, and inspired by you. Looks like I'll be getting an import MKIII towards the end of the year.

[@JhOtheGuitarist]

The channel is ressurrected! 🤘🏾

[@caiuswolf7725]

Just ordered my MKIII artist in crimson blue I am so stoked to try it out.

[@michaelprb5077]

Ive bought the Km3 Tbb 7 String and its my favorite of all the axes I´ve ever had in my life... thx Keith for the awesome job !!!!!

[@EladZalman]

I bought the KM-7 MK-II on Mar 25, 2018, after I had the first model for 2 years. I love it! thanks, Keith for great guitars!

[@anders5000odense]

So beautiful! Been following your journey from the beginning. Insane! congratulations.

[@SmashAtoms]

I just ordered the MK-III Toxic Green and I can’t wait to get it!

[@niclastname]

I just got my KM6 MkI a month ago and love it! I like some of the changes spec-wise to the MKII but I just love the look of the MKI so much. And it sounds fantastic too!

[@saltysteel3996]

And thank you Keith Merrow for the great music that you produce. It'll never die! \m/,

[@MonkeyFencing]

Congrats Keith! Awesome guitars. All the Best to you and Schecter! God bless.

[@DustieWaggoner]

Your tone in this video is the best you've ever sounded. It's been awesome to watch your gear transcend to this level of badassery.

[@francois-josephguillaume3853]

Loved to see the whole documentary, thx for sharing guys

[@Guithulhu]

Kieth Merrow, god of badass metal mood music. I'm old as fuck, heard so many guitarists, and think Keith's music is hands down THE coolest shit. I'll even repeat songs when listening and that is RARE. Keep up the awesomeness, Keith.

[@MikaTarkela]

The guitar sounds killer! Thank you for creating something awesome for guitarists all over the world!

[@marcoahonavarro3060]

We miss you dude! nice to see you again.

[@vatsalpatel6955]

So good to see you after long time your music is a big inspiration for me and your signature guitars are just phenomenal 🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@MajorDook1]

I love the neck joint on that bolt on. Looks awesome!

[@allboutthemojo]

These guys love their work, and that is the secret to making quality. Schecter is on my to buy list now

[@narshadda]

Wow finally!!! I love my KM1 can't wait to add this beast to the collection! Congrats Keith

[@PearlHarbor138]

Welcome back Keith!

[@iguessillsuffer]

Just want to say I'm enjoying this guitar. Picked one up not to long ago. My first ever high end guitar. Slowly getting acclimated to it because its been a while since I've played a 7 string. Thank you for designing a great guitar along with Schecter and Fishman.

[@glubglub2131]

Saving my pennies. 2021 will be the year I claim this beast.

[@toemasmeems]

Same man, I might get the hybrid though I already have a Standard and it’s the best 7 I’ve played besides a Strandberg. Are you saving for the hybrid or the Artist?

[@Metalltool]

Those necks look incredible! You can feel the quality just by looking at it! Killer guitars

[@skycaptain141]

I want a import version. Cant afford the custom shop. SO happy when he said there will be an import.

[@InternetLoveMachine]

Seeing the Schecter guitarbuilding process compared to some other well known brands... man, just quality. Just bought a C1 SLS Elite and looking forward to getting it!!!

[@lamerjkee]

Awesome! You`re back!)

[@alaspoorjordan]

Gorgeous. Can't wait to check out the import version!

[@davidlamothe8586]

Man I would LOVE to work at their custom shop, seems like they're really enjoying themselves and working there

[@R2R3Lockingnut]

That's a bad ass guitar man! Welcome back and good to see you again Keith 🤘🎸🎵🎶👍

[@Bumchampion420]

Youre the homie man! Saw your band conquering dystopia with Animals as leaders and Chon in Jax FL few years back. Top show ive ever seen. Thanks for the experience bro. Inspiration

[@rolandlemus203]

VERY COOL process and vid! Learned a lot, thanks!

[@yellowdudewithedibleshorts]

My KM7 mk1 is by far the best guitar I own. And I own a bunch of good ones.. Is awesome to see how this beautiful axe is evolving

[@everrest8830]

Thank you Keith! The KM7 MKII is my favorite instrument even over my prestige ibanez. The stainless steel frets, neck curvature, and hipshot just make the instrument unstoppable. Oh and the natural finish is amazing! I'm proud to own your signature and if anyone here is second guessing get one, all I have to say is stop what you're doing and get one now because you will not be disappointed

[@ominousbloodline]

So true mate! I've played quite a few guitars...including USA made and high end ones. Believe it or not ...one of my all time favourite guitars in terms of feel and sound is the schecter KM II ( Korean made). Insanely well built and so easy to play!! Now I need this USA custom Shop guitar 😍😍

[@Double_0_7_Strings]

Friends of mine have kms and I’m so jealous lol. Unbelievable quality. I’m definitely sticking around for the production models of these to come!

[@AllTheRamenOnTheSky]

I've been wanting a KM since the first iteration and this only increases that desire.

[@jorgelsgomes9754]

Incredible guitar. Congratulations to you all.

[@jameskidwell5427]

Own a KM6 MK III. Love it! Excellent guitar. 😊

[@ccchicken8889]

It's been cool watching your journey Keith. I remember finding out about you and chatting a bit on Sevenstring.org years ago. It was really cool to see that there was an "underground" guy that was just fucking amazing. And now to see everything you've grown into, well it's inspiring and just brings a smile. The MKIII is sick!! Keep it up man, and I know we all can't wait to hear your next music project!

[@dirtybeehive1848]

killer vid amazing watching the process of a great product look forward to new vids.

[@J-MLindeMusic]

Awesome video, great editing...seeing the process was really interesting! And those guitars look pretty damn neat as well. ;)

[@turbowizard8325]

That MKIII Studio is BEAUTIFUL!!

[@adrianomuricy6488]

I own a km7 MK1 and I've been browsing for a 6 string for a while. Couldn't find anything that had all the features not even for 2 times the price. Bottom line, I'm getting a km6 mk2. Congrats, man. They are incredible

[@mrk4510]

Love that dark fretboard. Beautiful instrument

[@podgemurray4377]

Started with the classic starter pack guitar and amp combo, few years later, teenage me got a Schecter telecaster dark brown burst with a black pickguard. ( xmas gift) few years later when I was knee deep embedded into the metal, another Schecter, this time a Hellraiser, seemed like the appropriate choice for a Jeff Loomis fan boy. Doubled my happiness with a 7 string Hellraiser 7 years later, and now tomorrow, I have arriving to my gaff, a KM MIII Schechter in blue/red burst. Within the next 10 years, I will have a custom shop Schecter and that is a guarantee. I love these guitars, every one of them I have ever played is quality. Even the cheap ones I've come across in my travels. Delighted to have discovered these guitars early, seems to have bled a lot of 'guitar bullshit' out of my life even If I didn't realize it at the time. XD

[@DavidValles]

This is art in it's truest form. Beautiful guitar.

[@jeffarab4947]

I played one of these models at guitar center encino ca now I'm not a schector lover but the sound and feel is good played thru a line 6 amp and was solid good paasives pups real good model good job man

[@hieih8]

Damn !! This is a masterpiece for sure! Loved it!

[@masonengelken7465]

This video makes me proud to own a KM-7 MkII. I might be picking up a MkIII now, too...

[@jasoncrump1886]

I got the km6 mkii and getting ready to get me a mkiii soon. Appreciate ya Keith.

[@clugokillscluco]

Sup Keith! We need a new Morning Coffee with Keith Merrow. Sick guitar and congratulations on all of your success!

[@scottwentworth9290]

I have to say you knocked it out of the park with this guitar. I have owned quite a few guitars through the years and current have about 9, which include mostly signature models. I picked up the MKII when I saw that lambo blue, just had to have it. But this MKIII is absolutely killer, on another level and I find it hard to put it down. The tone, feel and playability is outstanding. I’m am sure my other guitars are feeling lonely and hate you for birthing this perfect creation. Great job man.

[@KeithMerrow]

That's awesome dude, I'm stoked you like it.

[@KadintheGuitarDude]

Finally got my hands on one of these a little while ago and it's so sick. Been wanting the KM for so long they came out with the MK3 by the time I was ready 😂

[@podhd500metal4]

Wow I haven't checked your channel for a while, and now your hair..wow!

[@presoonjames438]

Good progress Kieth and you're extremely lucky as a musician

[@Locoandchooch]

That’s definitely a sweet signature fiddle. Looks great Keith.

[@just.some.dud3]

Badass, Keith! Super stoked for you, the new guitars look killer. :)

[@Frickles1787]

Omg these look fantastic, huge fan of the all of these the mkI II and III's. Cmon lefties :P

[@DoktrDub]

Dude you produce some of the best schecter guitars available on the market, definitely grabbing one of these at some point!

[@obicross]

damn, even the choice for the voicing for the pickups man. your taste evolved. so glad you went with mid gain, vintage brown sound, and split coil sound. Allows for more versatility and more expressive playing, definitely! Great job keith!

[@IanVase]

Those are killer!!! I was in a band called Straight Line Stitch (playing drums) a while back and we went to the Schecter shop/office and met some of those cats and they were really cool and nice. Definitely an experience i'll never forget. We went to Ibanez the same day but I got some pretty cool pics of the place. Happy for ya for all the success you are having! You definitely deserve it man!

[@ricardofigueroa6754]

Keith this was fucking awesome man! much love homie and can't wait to see what the future has! Just ordered a Mkii Natural this week, cannot wait !

[@HansAaraas]

These are definitely top notch. Best guitars I've seen from Schecter

[@Adam1349]

Can't say I've ever wanted a Schecter or a 7 string, but I definitely want this one. Great job on the guitar! Also, the new album is fantastic!

[@tommytorres5825]

Beautiful guitar man. It will take me a long time, but I'm saving up for one.

[@MrFlavai]

Buenisima totalmente!!!! Felicitaciones,saludos desde Argentina!! Keith!!!!!

[@Slormer]

Vicious dude, I'm still saving up for a white MK1. Pain in the ass getting them in Canada!

[@raytorvalds3699]

That is so badass and well deserved. Congrats mr. Merrow !! Now I have another guitar to chase. ffing gas.

[@orphanuprising]

Loved that guitar when I played it.

[@danielcarey2179]

Damn these videos! They caused me to buy both USA models. Awesome guitars!

[@leobargianni377]

that's so good man! i'm reeaally happy for that achievement of yours! they must be a dream to play and i'm sure they sound even better then they look! you also said that a more affordable model is coming later on, i'm looking forward to that too, maybe it will be more suited for my ability and pockets :3

[@DANTHETUBEMAN]

you guys have made some great guitars.

[@j-fquevillon8134]

Top quality video prod., top quality guitar, great song!! What's better than that :) Good job Keith!

[@furlong08857]

Schecter in my opinion are really a great guitars, Stay in tune, sound and feel great to play. they also keep up with the age of what players want buy using the new and old Influences. I played with my friends KM7 and really it has a great feel to it. High quality and a great price

[@Chris_Brah]

You really need to post more often Keith, we miss you bro!

[@rbergan]

I'm waiting on your new Fishman sig pickups, can't wait to try them out!

[@thane_snipes]

Always excited to see what you do next Keith, and I gotta say, that purple MKIII looks fucking tremendous. Its looks only beaten by its sound. If I could afford to go out and buy a guitar right now, I'm damn well certain what I'd get. Congrats and keep it up my man!

[@Nyarlah]

Great video and guitar ! And I need to get those tunes !
