My little guitar operation didn’t end well. I went to re-wire it once again as per the previous blog entry on this subject and now it just won’t work. I’m probably going to give it another stab at a later when I don’t feel so demoralised about the whole thing.

It’s not all bad though. I’m planning on buying a new guitar. It’s gonna set me back a bit but I feel it’s going to be worth it. I intend on buying an LTD SC-607B. It’s the signature model of Stef Carpenter from the Deftones.

Cool stuff the guitar features includes:

7-string… The moment I got my last 7-string I couldn’t play a 6-string again, I like the feel of the bigger neck!
Mahogony body and Active EMG 81-7 pickups (Good sound out of the box!)
Baritone scale. The next is that little bit longer, which means more tension on the strings and thus makes it an ideal guitar to downtune on, which I do a lot.
Locking Tuners. Was going to get some of these for my other guitar, I like the idea of it NOT going out of tune while playing.

Here’s what it looks like:

SC-607B

The RRP is £1049, but I’ve managed to find a shop selling it for £860.
