USED Vik Guitars Duality 7 String Electric Guitar "Riptide" Denim Faded Blue Burst

Just in @ Guitar Brando, a very rare and exquisite Vike Duality 7 string guitar. Loaded with absolutely everything + the kitchen sink, this is a truly remarkable build by nearly every metric.

Using only the absolute best available master grade tone woods for this guitar, it has become more than the sum of its parts. Beginning with the hand-selected black limba body and wide pattern quilt maple top, this Duality was given a deep blue fade/glow burst to accentuate the natural grain patterns. The roasted curly maple neck was given a dark slab ebony fretboard and body-matched figured maple block inlays installed.

If you were thinking this is all just show, this Duality 7 was also built with premium go-fast hardware and electronics. Instrumental SFTY-4 (neck 7 bridge) with custom wound single coil middle pickup provide all the modern tones and articulation you could ever want. The electronics wiring is a simple 5 way switch with a single volume knob (provided by Gotoh). Original Floyd Rose (double locking) is set nice and balanced and the trem arm has been upgraded to the OFR push-in style bar.

Strap locks are Dunlop recessed and add to the sleek look of the guitar. Additionally, frets 21-24 have been scalloped for additional access/playability. This particular guitar is a single-owner guitar, only played at home. No damage or marks on the body/neck, but there are 2 hairline cracks in the ebony fretboard on the higher frets (which are barely visible and do not affect playability).
