what is it with lot of brands moving production to indonesia? Is it cheaper there? Is Indonesia becoming a new Korea? Just as Korea became new Japan few years ago?
Ok, I really liked the review. Was hoping to see the Walnut top, I'm putting a gorgeous figured Claro Walnut top on one (and possibly two, if a potential buyer decides for that instead of a figured Redwood) of my first nine builds,, and I"d love to see what PRS does with walnut. One thing that would have been really cool, is that since you played a djent-ish rhythm guitar at the beginning of the review, if you would have played a more traditional metal, or thrash metal, or maybe just a little variation in the subgenre of metal, to get a better sense of how that guitar, and specifically those pickups, lend themselves to other sub genres that potential customers might want to hear. Like you said, there aren't a lot of guitars on the market that have those pickups loaded, so it's very difficult to ever try them out. And being one of the most expensive aftermarket pickups Seymour Duncan, offers, people who want to try them before they buy them usually. Just a thought. Otherwise, a good review video.
You're becoming my favorite RUclips guitar channel.... I dig the honesty. I understand the companies pay your bills but you're not afraid to admit you're concerns. It's awesome! Would love to see more content
Duuuude, that lead hit me up more than a drunk step Father. I love that you're getting better And better in guitar, and being a better creator. I think that you should be in the Jared Dines shred collab this year.
I ordered mine about the same time you uploaded this video , the first one came in damaged in shipping so sent it back and ordered a replacement , then covid hit and I just got it the other day but thanks to this video and the very few other that were available I was able to patiently wait it out but I've probably watched this video 30 or 40 times just living vicariously through you so thank you for making this one , love your channel it's gotten me through many a night at work keep up the good work brother 💪
This demo song rocks! I must admit that most of the time the demo songs aren't really my style but sometimes you blow me away. This was one of those moments \m/
very nice take on the periphery vibe. been a long time subscriber.of the channel, but just recently started feeling like I want one of these reeeeeaaaaal bad so I came back to watch and honestly you did a good job catching what people want to hear from this guitar so thanks for selling me on this 2 years in the future 😅
I love how you said it's like a 3-hour drive from the nut to the first threat that's funny as s*** like I said I'm shocked by the extra large scale really never seen one in person except around like a base
I bought the six string version used recently. I like it a lot. I was a tiny bit worried when you complained about the neck radius but I used to have an Ibanez RGA32 and that had a wizard 2 neck I believe. This neck is actually less flat so I cannot relate. I really love this guitar. I will replace the nut and maybe eventually upgrade the tuners, saddles, and upgrade the pots but only the nut is really a priority.
@@seanstiller7202 I love it, feels great to play and it is a well built instrument. The Alpha Omega pickups are also just fantastic. Has great low end clarity which was my biggest complaint about less expensive 7 string models.
@@seanstiller7202 Its a plain stock nut, but I've had no issues. Still when I can actually go to a music store again I may replace it with a graphite one now that I think about it. I still haven't actually gotten it properly set up by a guitar tech since the pandemic hit.
hunter, I really dig this track you laid down dude, killer riffage as always brother! my holcomb svn should be here a day or so after xmas, happy holidays dude!
I have a Supro Hampton and Huntington III that were both built in Indonesia and they are great! Just as good as any US built guitar in that price range. Awesome review!
Killer demo riff. Don’t listen to any of these fucking boomers saying you need to get better for 20 years. You’re a killer player and a great content creator. Keep doing what you’re doing and don’t get discouraged
E# is F and has been written in as an accidental to raise the pitch a semitone and lower the pitch a semitone with an E natural accidental in a run or something to creat dissonance or another harmonic effect when played over the other parts of the composition. So not an official note because it's really is F but it sorta exists, I've seen it in a piece
Fretboard radius should feel the exact same in terms of curvature on a guitar regardless of the string count. The circle that the radius represent is still a 40” diameter circle, so going from a 6 to 7 shouldn’t have a noticeable change other than making the fretboard wider. 20” = 20”.
After trying out Custom 24’s and also older SE models it’s hard to not notice the difference in playability and finish quality so I’m still skeptical. But I really love that satin natural.
Only downside of prs guitars is still no option for SS frets. Thats always confused me, they make such high end instruments. It would be awesome if they started offering that on their more expensive models
I doubt they ever will ive seen videos of paul talking about how he hates the tone of ss frets. I have no opinion on the matter i will play anything with strings on it 😂😂
I was going to wait 6 months for the Walnut Satin, until I heard this axe has a flatter neck. I went with the regular PRS SE SVN, found a mint one used for $659 as my first 7 string. Love, love the guitar, and that is coming from a high end American Strat Plus, which just isn't for a Dream Theater fanboy like me. And not just for metal. I like the HW on the Holcomb better, but I can't seem to care that much.
Honestly everything you said in the review is about what I figured you would say. Haven't played one yet but I think I'll likely agree with it. I did notice when you look on the prs website the other seven string is no longer there. So I'm wondering if the Holcomb is now the only one they offer for 2020. As always great vid. Sound wise I'm in complete agreement about the pick ups. They seem much better suited for extended range.
I still can't get over how different the tops are on these. I actually don't like the top on this particular one agufish has, but I really lucked out with the one I managed to get hold of. It's much denser, with much more of a quilt to it; if that makes any sense..
That was a really good review! Did you say it was made at Cort’s factory? It would be super cool if you could do a review of the black Cort KX500MS. I’m really curious about how it compares to the Holcomb one. I think it looks dope and is one of the most affordable multi scale seven strings.
Hey... Nice video and some killer riffs out there... One quick question... How do you connect the 120 watt 6505 to a torpedo which only takes up-to 100 watts?
I really agree with you I think it's awesome talk for its money I've ever played one but playing I played many and I got friends a have PRS has and I agree with what you're saying
Great review! How do you like the PUPs? I recently installed Bare Knuckle Jugs in my Jackson HT7 and they're amazing so I'm honestly hesitant to get a metal-oriented guitar without them. Would love to know how you think the Alpha/Omega compares to other high-end PUPs
i just got one of these a few days ago and i guess they went back to the shitty plastic nuts. the slots are cut way to deep and they overall just look so lazily done. getting a graphtech schecter 7 nut as its close to the same nut specs
OK, but when's the 8-string coming out?? 😂 😂
Yea,but Harley Benton has you covered bro
Yeah, but when is the Harley Benton Agufish Signature coming out?? 😂🤘🎸
Okay Ill order a nother tshirt to fund your harley Benton 21 string, Just couse I want you to outdjent Stevie T and Jared LoL

We see that signature Harley Benton dude!! STAHP TEASING USSSS
I think it will be available next year, I hope so at least, maybe in june.
When are you gonna do an album, your creativity with riff writing is freaking amazing. You should do a collab or something.
Duuuude, that lead hit me up more than a drunk step Father. I love that you're getting better And better in guitar, and being a better creator.

That intro song was 100% djenty goodness. 10 out of 10.
Holy shit that key change in the demo track... wow Hunter we need an album!
@Agufish just found you last week, Love the channel my dude. Keep up the good work !!
Wow, this is definitely my favorite song you've put together. This one was amazing, Hunter!
The original SE Holcomb was the first video I've seen from you, holy shit how time flies
The Holcomb burst looks infinitely better than the satin natural finish in my opinion
No comparison.
In person the satin is much much better than the pictures, but yeah, I do love that burst.
The satin wears out quickly if you play a lot and becomes dirty looking. Burst gang
This demo song rocks! I must admit that most of the time the demo songs aren't really my style but sometimes you blow me away. This was one of those moments \m/
A 7 String fender strat is all I need
Rodrigo Díaz 7 String Tele Deluxe
Rodrigo Díaz 7 string jazzmaster
Rodrigo Díaz bruh you fucked up my mind in ways that nobody else has:(
Kiesel makes one, and occasionally Agile does.
Jackson made one for Josh Smith of northlane
Wow your playing has gotten better. I'm proud of you!
The 20" radius is god damn amazing if you play technical stuff like 90 % of Periphery's songs.
I didn’t like it I liked my JP70 radii more but I probably wouldn’t mind it if I got used to it
Damn that track was dope dude, can't wait to see how good you are once you play as long as Ray.
very nice take on the periphery vibe. been a long time subscriber.of the channel, but just recently started feeling like I want one of these reeeeeaaaaal bad so I came back to watch and honestly you did a good job catching what people want to hear from this guitar so thanks for selling me on this 2 years in the future 😅
I see you channelled your inner Periphery for this demo, sounds great man! Good review, I'll have to consider this one for my 7 string slot
Your riffs just keep getting better and better \,,/
That intro is my favorite one so far. Excellent job friend👌🏼
Damn Hunter,That riff is a Banger all the way around...."and you know this mannn!!!" 👍😜thanks for the great content as always.
That intro song was amazing

I do miss the fat dumper on that Gibraltar bridge tho...that's about it. Everything else I like better on the PRS.
I just ordered the Walnut Satin version on Friday from my local store. I can't wait to get my hands on it.
What are your thoughts after playing it for a while? I want one but am having issues finding one to try
@@seanstiller7202 I love it, feels great to play and it is a well built instrument. The Alpha Omega pickups are also just fantastic. Has great low end clarity which was my biggest complaint about less expensive 7 string models.
@@cirick1696 any issues with the nut?

Someones playing in Drop A and boy does it sound amazing
ironically misha's import jackson sig has a 20" fretboard radius
i haven't even watched this video but i enjoy your reviews. here is a thumbs up *winks*
When are we getting the agufish nevermore cover? I mean, you have a seven string right there! 😅😂
Great, hunter, samurai, and davie new uploads again. Good day
I'm probably alone on this but the walnut natural wood finish seems really boring.
Agreed
I have mixed feelings. The heavy gloss rubs me the wrong way though
Just bought mine today! Love it!
Killer demo riff. Don’t listen to any of these fucking boomers saying you need to get better for 20 years. You’re a killer player and a great content creator. Keep doing what you’re doing and don’t get discouraged
3 hour drive between the nut and first fret 🤣 . You should try the 27.5” scale on my shuriken baritone.

I need that purple Harley Benton sc in my life please hurry up and let thoman sell them
lmfao "Yeah it's like a fuckin 3 hour drive from the nut back to 3rd." I died
That demo track was godlike.
I just got my SVN last week... Needless to say I've picked up my 6 string twice since.
The demo is insane!
Only downside of prs guitars is still no option for SS frets. Thats always confused me, they make such high end instruments. It would be awesome if they started offering that on their more expensive models
Its because paul reed smith hates them and refuses to out it on their guitars
I doubt they ever will ive seen videos of paul talking about how he hates the tone of ss frets. I have no opinion on the matter i will play anything with strings on it 😂😂

I've been a strat player for like 15 years but man oh man do PRS kick ass.
Would love to give the Mark Holcolm SVN a go one day.
I'm really tempted to get the walnut version.
That is really really nice surprised to see something bigger than a 25 and 1/2 scale though thought I'd like it granted I'm in the EMG fan all day
very helpful, thanks fam
If my life means anything I can die happy knowing I started the brisket burst name 😂. Hopefully I can swing the seven this year.
Lmao "3 hour drive from the nut to the first fret" Priceless👍
1:25 cleans at 1:45
What are your thoughts on Motley Crue coming out of retirement?
Which guitar do you like KM7 MKiii Artist or PRS SVN Mark Holcomb?
My wife and I are going on vacation in January, we're heading to the 12th fret of a 28" scale baritone.
Honestly everything you said in the review is about what I figured you would say. Haven't played one yet but I think I'll likely agree with it. I did notice when you look on the prs website the other seven string is no longer there. So I'm wondering if the Holcomb is now the only one they offer for 2020. As always great vid. Sound wise I'm in complete agreement about the pick ups. They seem much better suited for extended range.
What do you think about the Japanese Fender Swingers?
DUDE YOU HAVE TO REVIEW THE BOSS KATANA MK2!!!!!!!!
Hi, can you please inform when your Signature Harley Benton will be available for purchase? Thanks in advance
That natural satin 🤙
My order date got moved to 2nd week of January :(
Walnut satin, pls come to me soon.
I still can't get over how different the tops are on these. I actually don't like the top on this particular one agufish has, but I really lucked out with the one I managed to get hold of. It's much denser, with much more of a quilt to it; if that makes any sense..
As an owner of one of these, I'd tell ya to get one b4 they run out.
That was a really good review! Did you say it was made at Cort’s factory? It would be super cool if you could do a review of the black Cort KX500MS. I’m really curious about how it compares to the Holcomb one. I think it looks dope and is one of the most affordable multi scale seven strings.
I pre ordered the natural wood finish last week 👍
How does it play man? I’m considering ordering one without trying it first.
Whats that fret wrap like pin on the headstock? Is that a different kind of fret wrap?
Not sure if I could bond with the bridge. I am used to seven string floyds giving my palm a home base.
hey Agufish. love your videos! but you should probably clean of the dust on the guitar when you do close up shots on the guitar :P
If u can check out the deryck whibley Squier telecaster plz
I think it would be cool If you went back to the 6 string and gave us an updated opinion, concidering that you like modern guitars more?
Djenty + Jazzy = PRS SE Mark Holcomb
Hey... Nice video and some killer riffs out there... One quick question... How do you connect the 120 watt 6505 to a torpedo which only takes up-to 100 watts?
Why are there no demos using the jet city head?
Talking about hyped up guitar with your Hb in the background... I see what you did there.
Please review the schecter reaper MS-7. I know it really isn't your kind of guitar, but that guitar deserves more hype.
your dog is most metal dog I ever seen
Why I watch this when I've had one for 23 days shy off a year, idfk
Hello just a question...can the 64 string hold drop A tuning on this guitar? Or you need thicker strings?
Hey Agu i have a holcomb 6 now and a gretsch g5622. Im torn between grabbing a prs mt15 stack or a laney ironheart stack. Any opinions on the pair?
Does the guitar come shipped in Drop G#? Can’t find any info anywhere but the Holcomb 6 came shipped in Drop C..
How would this hold up in a slightly higher tuning? Like C standard with an added high F string.
Could you take a look a max cavalera signature?
the dog digs the 7 string for sure.
How does it compare to the regular SVN?
I really agree with you I think it's awesome talk for its money I've ever played one but playing I played many and I got friends a have PRS has and I agree with what you're saying
What material are the frets made of??
Great review! How do you like the PUPs? I recently installed Bare Knuckle Jugs in my Jackson HT7 and they're amazing so I'm honestly hesitant to get a metal-oriented guitar without them. Would love to know how you think the Alpha/Omega compares to other high-end PUPs
Does it have the same tuning issues that the 6 had?
I have it and it doesn’t seem to have tuning issues don’t have the 6 though
how does it compare to a harley benton?
How do these compare with like a schecter elite sls c1 ?
i just got one of these a few days ago and i guess they went back to the shitty plastic nuts. the slots are cut way to deep and they overall just look so lazily done. getting a graphtech schecter 7 nut as its close to the same nut specs
I know Periphery but still didn’t know who Mark was!!
Graph Techs are infused with PTFE, not graphite.
but there is such a thing as E#... it"s the seventh note in the F# major scale.
Nice guitar
someone tab that 1:39 chord out for me please
Please review the LTD Ben Burnley Baritone!!!!!!!!!!
