I use it for about 1 month Schecter C7 Hellraiser on in neck and bridge, and I love.
Unfortunately I could test only a few microphones before, but I already know a lot EMG, and I admit that I like. Usually, I am rather Di Marzio for 7 strings, but I must say that the 707 really surprised me.
This is version 7 of 85 strings, thus set, I already felt close to fall on a good pti his warm, well rounded, and it is! I use it especially clean and admit that the sound is ... MOUAHA! great! I love it! Warm, round, a good presence in the low but it does not become viroulent, to vibrate while the walls of the room, and he does not neglect the midrange and treble. Very good microphone handle.
Then in the bridge position, the, it becomes more difficult ... The probe is just well rounded, although warm, and sometimes, in heavy distortion, you would like a big fat flapping palm mute well, which sent, and 707 is a little too warm for that, so the distortion tends to lose potato ... which is pretty bad, but my time is a very good handle microphones! and I would change if I find a 81 / 7 a reasonable price, otherwise I keep it and it goes very well!

Otherwise, I forget to mention the 707 handle distortion for solos: ben good is nothing more to say before: very good, perfectly transcribes everything that wants to have, and the solos are with extra! I enjoy playing Nervemore from Dream Theater, or other groups where a 7-string is required, and have a blast!

frankly, I was very Di Marzio for 7-string before, but now, EMG / Di Marzio, the two balance my heart ^ ^

(I put that light 9 for the lack of potatoes in large easel disto)
