The 7-string guitar that started it all! Today we're looking at the Ibanez Universe UV777P, made in Japan in 1999. Although the over-the-top styling may turn away some, this guitar has a ton to offer, especially at the price. With it's normal 25.5" scale and super-thin neck, this is a great guitar for players looking to purchase their first 7-string.

Check out Phillip McKnight's excellent video for more background on the history of the Ibanez 7 String: [ Ссылка ]

There is also a VERY detailed video on Steve Vai's Universe guitars on Craven's channel. For example, I learned Blaze II pickups are the same as Blaze pickups :) [ Ссылка ]

The signal chain was AxeFX2 (USA Lead,Friedman BE, FAS Lead, USA Clean) with the Horizon Devices Precision Drive pedal. This guitar really benefited from the extra attack of the Precision Drive..a bit muddy without. Check out the pedal here: [ Ссылка ]
