UTILIZATION

It plays very easily (although for exceeding the 21th box must extend the fingers, but nothing insurmountable), the handling is very fast.
THERE IS nothing to say about the form that saw it's pretty standard that side by side against weight j I was surprised that she was lighter than my Ibanez RG 507.
His side is the top c, c is a 7 string so should not EXPECT to the finesse.
S big sound gets very easily.

SOUNDS

I bought the J to the metal, it fulfills its role.
I play on a mesa boogie 2 * 90 + a + marshall JMP1 output 2 baffles and a Marshall 1912 POD XT LIVE (j at the base which should already have for the big sound, finally, in my opinion ...)
But I have tried it on the small combo 50W and its rendering is really good especially in saturation. I will can be a small problem with the sound clear, but since I bought it for the saturation I do not plainds.

OVERALL OPINION

I have the last month and frankly I enjoy the change from 6 to 7 string s is done without problem. It responds to everything I was looking for.
It s not easy to buy a 7 string because rare are the stores that have them but in the same price range I have tried the j Ibanez RG 7321 but might as well say that c is not the same category at the finish and sound (because for 100 euros more différencede the sound and look is great, I had not tried that the seller was already talking about me I changed the pickups c is to say ...).
I hesitated to buy the schecter 007 blackjack, but I had not mattres 400 euros more, and in this price range (around 600 euros) there are only the most damien 7.De I would add that I did not want to Floyd c is too restrictive of the cost model available is very limited, apart from schecter 7 strings or many are not floyd.
Looking back I do it again exactly the same choice, I'm a big fan of my guitar, I n cons for not exclude the possibility of the EMG active in a while to gain potato.
If you want a 7 string with an exellent value for money (around 600euros) go ahead you found it.

And presto, a small copy paste the site Schecter.

Nothing to add, except that the look is impressive grave! The inlay bat designated a bit like those in Las Vegas Parano beginners trs is original and gives a pronounced personality guitar.

We are halfway between a class and look trs carrment aggressive look, is it may be giving this cot diabolical guitar

UTILIZATION

As my 7-string Premire, j'apprhendais just the passage of a handle 6 strings a handle 7-string. But it is clear that the issue matrise Schecter and provides a handle barely wider than a 6 string and go as fast qu'agrable. So at the CHAC dernire frtes is very easy.

I had the opportunity to test an Ibanez that did not let me feel as good because even if the handle silent trs end (as always with Ibanez). he silent wider (mean height) than the Schecter.

Finally note that the ergonomics and balance are exemplary of the guitar, the guitar is a vritable pen.

SOUNDS

Damien is the name given to the human son of Satan in the classic "The Omen" (another model of Schecter by the way ...) dating from 1976. Schecter Announces then the color with a guitar the personality mystrieuse mid-class and middle-aggressive, half-rock and half metal, half-human half-and inhuman in short, DEFINITIONS evil!

Who opt for a pickup EMG81-7 on the day of purchase of Damien7, I could not give a full review of the passive EMGs Hills home on the guitar. All I can say is that I was surprised enjoyable, they drool a little more beautiful that the assets, they are nevertheless good for mics trs origins.

However, once mounted in assets, Damien you return straight to his dear father! The guitar is terrible, a real prdateur that will satisfy fans of prog at its edge until the death of a fan that spot. Sustain infernal, the palm mute and harmonics dmoniaques occult, no doubt, an EMG Arveiller bte that lay dormant in the abyss.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for this week dernire and pure evil incarnate adj composed several devastating child. This guitar inspires me, takes full possession of me when she is in my hands and I can not do without.

With the exprience I would do 100 times this choice because the report qualitprix is ​​unbeatable. Few guitars in this range have a REALLY me, the one Damien7 DGIG will almost palpable, both in its look than its sound.
