Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? You will not be unhappy with any thing, I highly recommend for a first seven string. Reliability How has it stood up over time? Very well in fact im going to buy the loomis c7 and keep it tuned a half step down and keep the other in standerd. General Your general opinion of this product. It is well made and pictures don't even compare to seeing it in your hands Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? It plays like a dream better than any seven string I've had before. The only limits on this guitar is the player behind it. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Very hot pickups but pull the coil tap and get that single coil sound. The 707 really bring the harmonics out, and they growl metal tones. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? Perfect, I got the white one and it looks even better in person. Action How was the action out of the box? Perfect staight from the box, tune it alittle do to weather changes and shipping and your ready to shred or well play any thing you want it will do.
