    Dare I say....Please do a joint venture with Keith. I can only imagine the riffs that would come out of that collaboration.

      Yes! Remember when I found Keith online and he was still using Agile guitars and riffing like noone else. This video is so strange but awesome at the same time!

    To be honest, I watch these videos for the riffs. If you look back at a lot of these kinds of videos from before the new album was released, he would play a LOT of the riffs that made it on the album. Most memorable being playing the main riff from What the Dead Men Say on his signature fret wrap video.

    This certainly is my dream hardtail 7 string (well...realistically attainable dream, excluding crazy price custom shop stuff). Just looks like it will be absolutely perfect for me. I love the feel of the slim neck on my Reaper-6, the resonance from the set neck construction, and just the overall feel is incredible for a £600 guitar. The first decent guitar I ever got and has really set me on to Schecter. Everything points towards the KM7 III Artist having all of these great aspects and taking it to the next level.
    The Fishman pickups are a big draw to the KM7 Artist too. It seems like Keith has chosen a perfect variety of pickup tones - an aggressive metal voicing, a classic voicing and a dedicated single coil voicing too. The single coil mode sounded particularly great in this demo. I have the Fluence Moderns in a Cort 7 string which is my stopgap hardtail 7 whilst I save for the KM7 so I've already experienced just how impressive these pickups are. The Cort is a multiscale which I'm finding quite tricky to get used to for playing chords on the lower frets. TBH I think 26.5" would be the best compromise..yet another tick in the box for the KM7!
    I can see Shecter has some USA production KM models too...they seem to be quite rare! Doesn't really seem like you get anything more specs wise though, although there does seem to be a stunning finish exclusive to the USA model.
