7-string amplification

i was wondering
i am getting ready to purchase a schecter c-7
i currently play a cort through a Fender FM212r 100W 2x12 combo. eventually i want a triple rec, but until then, does anyone have any good suggestions for how to amp the7-string without taking anything away from its sound or cutting bottom end?

there's no difference between a 6 and 7 string other than the obvious. if you don't want to cut the bottom end then don't cut it.

the biggest tip I can give you is get a CLEAR pickup, that B string can get really muddy unless your using the right pickup.

Ooo Ooo ooo!
Get the SD Invader 7 string version, thats SUPER clear. Perfect clearness without any mud AT ALL!

But basically, when you get the 7 string, fuck with the fucking knobs to get a fucking good fucking sound, you fuck ass.

Brilliant advice in the simplest of laymans terms. You are truly worthy of the name CannibalCorpse.

i love my 7-string, but i still have stock pickups, and they suprizingly arent bad for stock pickups, but they still get muddy on the top string, i i want to check out those SD pickups i have seen them around but i figured the blaze 7 or emg 707 were better, but i havnt been hearing to much good stuff about those ones.

Last time I checked, Musician's Friend was selling a blemished Warp 7 two twelve combo for 2-300$. But as I've heard, those are'nt even worth that much anyway

What are the odds after CC's posts? I already think CC is a genius. His korn-d00d posts were a brilliant imitation of a retarded teenager. The attention to AOL speak details and random teen angst were top notch IMHO.

P.S. Rapture, what mean "feghit"?
