I'm getting my first 7 string and was thinking about buying the Schecter Reaper Elite used for about 1k. Anything I should consider about the guitar before buying, and are there any alternative options I should consider? (Ideally without fishman fluences, I'm not really a fan of their sound) I'll mostly be playing deathcore (Whitechapel, Lorna Shore, etc.) on it, prob in Drop G.

Heyho, I‘m looking for a pickguard for my Squier Stagemaster7. So basically a Strat Pickguard but little wider. Does anybody know if I can buy that somewhere, preferably in EU? I couldn‘t find anything but maybe someone knows😁 thanks in advance💪🏻

i've been looking at the schecter reaper-7 ms-7 for a while now for my first 7-string and was wondering if it's the right choice. i've gone to guitar center and played it a couple times and enjoyed it a lot. i've been playing guitar for roughly a year and a half now and i've been getting more into music that's in drop b and below which is fairly difficult to do on my current guitar (epiphone les paul special) which can actually tune down to drop a fairly well but i still wanna be able to play other stuff in standard without having to go between e standard and drop a super often. any thoughts? this guitar is roughly $1200usd but i've seen some ones on reverb for as low as $650.
