The Most VERSATILE GUITAR I Own || Skervesen Raptor 6 Demo/Review

[@TheJayKnight]

Hell yeah dude. That thing not only looks killer, but sounds even better. I'm gonna have to get a crack at that guitar. :D

[@ZackSeifMusic]

I’d be more than happy to let you check it out! There is some really cool circuitry inside.

[@PaweKalicki]

On the backplate you have the name of the man who designed the Viper Headstock in this model. I also have a Raptor from this anniversary series, great guitar.

[@ZackSeifMusic]

Yes! I’m friends with one of the USA employees at Skervesen and he pointed that out to me when I got the guitar. It’s pretty cool!

[@GrootGuitar]

Love the candid insight/perspective on such quality guitars! A Skervesen Raptor was my dream guitar for nearly 10 years until got my hands on an Ormsby Hype Machine. Glad to see someone as yourself repping such an amazing instrument. 🤘🦖

[@ZackSeifMusic]

I sincerely appreciate it! Hope you get to play one in the future. Simply incredible instruments.

[@ReflectorExe]

i know nothing about guitars except how bad ass they are in music , but you made that really interesting and awesome Great review ! and keep commenting on youtube thats how i found you lol !

[@ZackSeifMusic]

I sincerely appreciate it!!

[@thomasgendron3875]

duuude i want one ahah, asked them if they’d do a truss rod heel adjustment on a raptor and they said not yet, they told me they’ll release a skerv with a truss rod wheel adjustment model soon but not on the raptor yet, guess i’ll have to wait ahah, but they seem super good

[@ZackSeifMusic]

Truss rod wheels are a game changer! Love that my EBMM guitars have them.

[@jackodonnell7971]

Awesome

[@ZackSeifMusic]

@@jackodonnell7971 thanks Jack!!

[@tommyg2112]

Thats a great pickup combination...

[@ZackSeifMusic]

Absolutely agree! Very clean and clear.

[@setok.7134]

Great video! How’s the guitar neck? I noticed nut width is slightly larger than 43mm, which makes me think it will match ESP Extra thin U and Wizard neck?

[@ZackSeifMusic]

I ended up selling it because I found the neck to be too wide for my liking. Sounded and looked perfect, but the neck needs to work. Wizard is thinner and the U feels a bit nicer personally.

[@Boomheyyou]

I love my raptor 7 ntb I actually would say I liked the world domination mod more than an actual piezo

[@arunbissoon4630]

Sounds like a real jack of all trades guitar

[@ritupabankotoky]

nice Guitar.

[@ZackSeifMusic]

Thank you very much!

[@dilbophagginz]

I would have definitely just put new pickups in that Blackmachine B6 but you do you lol

[@ZackSeifMusic]

It would've been pickups, wiring, and hardware. I have specific needs and preferences for my main band and I would've gutted the guitar to make it work best for what I need live. It was a better choice to leave as is otherwise it would've killed the resale.

[@Boomheyyou]

And yes, I have a guitar with a piezo to compare to it it’s an Aristdes 060r but don’t give me wrong. Nothing wrong with a.piezo

[@gingerjam2192]

That’s not a flame maple fretboard, not flame but ‘maille’ (in french, I don’t know the right word in english, is it mesh?)

[@omgukilledkenny101]

Could anyone tell me if this has a regular poplar burl top or high grade? Good god this is sick

[@OfArgento]

Definitely a 4a+ top, no question

[@Guitar-Geek]

Serious concern in terms of versatility - no middle single detected.

[@ZackSeifMusic]

It has all the options that I personally need! Never was much of a strat player or triple hum player myself, but I still get the appropriate split tones that I need on tour and in studio😁

[@tarkgundogdu8940]

The necks are very thick. As an Ibanez and a Schecter fan, these guitars are NOT for shredders!

[@ZackSeifMusic]

I disliked the neck, and that's the ONLY reason I sold it. It's very wide.

[@SteveRozzano]

How would this neck compare to a jackson RR24 or esp/ltd

[@tarkgundogdu8940]

​@@SteveRozzanothat Jackson has a shredder neck but the shape of the guitar may cause some trouble to access the treble frets. ESP/ltd have different necks on different models, but generally super strat models have thinner necks which are better for shredding.
