MGR/Arnold « Ibanez K-7 »
Published on 03/10/02 at 15:00I bought this baby at the local music store Hermes Music. They did not have in stock, so I ordered it. I gave a payment of $100 bucks, and paid the rest when she got in. I paid a total of $1,000 dollars.
The guitar is built like a tank. The sustain through the body is emaculate and beautiful!! The mahogany construction on the body is rick and full. It is a bit heavy, but not uncomfortable!! The whole thing is factory-tuned one whole step down from the standard 7-string tuning. The low to high strings, A-D-G-C-F-A-D. That's really useful for when useing this type of tuning, the notes cut through like razors!! The U-bar is a sinch to use, very usefull when it comes to making your own quick little bends here and there. It also comes with a wammy-bar which is also awesome! The predominant thing I enjoy about this Guitar is the pickups, the Dimarzio Paf 7's. The sound that comes out of these baby's really attacks the senses and leaves you speakless!! The clean is bright and warm. The distortion is tight and aggressive!! oh, and let's not for get the tremolo system. It allows the bridge to be palmed to get tremolo effects without plaming the fine tuning!! Stays in tune like no other!!
There's really nothing that I don't like, except for the fact that it has one knob. The volume knob, I like haveing the other tone knob. I like to muffle my sound alittle to get more warmer sounds. But over all this guitar really suite's me very well.
The contruction on the K-7 is absolutely prestige!! Like I said, built like a tank. Everything is tight and made for aggresive playing!!
The K-7 is a beautiful instrument!! Its wood gives you SWEET sustain, its pickups make your notes as sharp as razors!! Its unique style is very audible!!
