well infact 1st caparison was roughly $1400 where as my first ran was $2000

from what I hear now rans are around $3000 for something along the lines of my old ones, also the main thing that pissed me pff about ran, I asked for a certain paint job, when I got the guitar it was a printjob......wasnt impressed.

Once I played the cap the RAN's went, simple as.

And we can add the DEAN RAZORBACK 7, but yes, this is not a pure V style...

Jackson actually made a production 7 sting RR in the 98' and 99'. They were priced at about $500 if I remember right. I know I wanted one but by the time I was really to order they had stopped making them.

Except for that model there hasn't been many production 7 string V's.

ah right, I remember seeing one, that makes a whole of 2 production modells that I know of.
yea well, I much prefer symetrical Vs to RRs anyways (I DO own a 6-string RR though cause they are still cool. its not a jackson though)

that site refuses to show me anything lol but I think I know the guitar in question. its actually an ESP (most probably a custom). its a V and looks quite similar to the RAN Invader:

I'd be inclined to agree. Nergal was only playing ESP when I saw them in London a couple of months ago.
