Thanks for the advice i want the guitar even more. I've played a 6 string model but want to try a 7 because 7 strings are just great, I have an Ibanez RG1527 Prestige but the music man is just nuts. The only thing I'm worried about though is the unfinished neck, i know it feels amazing its just the maintenance i hear that must be done and that the neck could become damaged or warped or something if I dont take proper care of it
