Yeah I am thinking of buying it since I also want a PRS 6 string guitar and this Subzero is great for having an extra cheaper 7 string. I would switch out the bridge pickup on this one for another passive humbucker with higher output. Like a Seymour Duncan Nazgul, Duncan Invader or Duncan Black Winter. The Dimarzio Super Distortion 7 is also a great pickup that costs under 100$. I have played all these pickups on 6 stringed guitars, great for metal and other stuff too, all above mentioned sounds better than most active pickups in my opinion. If you want tips on what pickup to match any of them in the neck position I will be glad to help. You can always start with the pickup that comes with the guitar and feel it out, maybe you are happy with it as it is.
kapvr Hey man, how would you describe the thickness of the neck ? Is it like Ibanez Wizard 2 thin or thicker like maybe a Wizard 3 or ESP guitar neck ? Thanks in advance and keep on rocking in the the "free" world :)
@@kapvr Great stuff, I have an 8 string Schecter Demon with Duncan design pickups so this 7 string will be perfect for the price just to play some 7 string. I have never played a guitar with fanned frets before however. Did it take some time getting used to ?
@@kapvr OK, nice. I see however that you are sitting down playing more in a classical way with the guitar neck and head upwards, tilting the guitar up. I am playing sitting with the guitar neck and head out to the side, more in a horizontal angle, It looks like that might be a slightly more uncomfortable angle for the hand to play on fanned frets :/ I will need to go and try it, I am also looking at a Jackson JS22-7, It is cheap as your Subzero but with standard frets and 26.5" scale instead of many other 7 strings that have 25.5" scale (almost all of the Ibanez for instance) so that could be a good option aswell.
@@kapvr damn good to know 😂 got s D'darrio 8-string pack to account for the scale and couldn't wrap the steing round the nut. I'll change to those cheers.

Bang for a buck
This video made me buy the guitar

Well played!
Thanks for this! I've been thinking about getting one. Are these all stock guitar hardware and accessories in your recording?
@@yu6796 yes, its all stock
Brilliant
thanks for the vid dude. nice playing! how did you get the sound? Archetype Plugins? Kemper? Real Amp?
Archetype Fucking Gojira 🔥
@@kapvr Literally the best plugin. If only they could add the transpose knob it would be even better lol
@@kapvr Ever tried OTTO audio Eleven II II II II? Great amp sim for heavy stuff, replaced Gojira for me.
@@imcrazedandconfused yooo dude, i will try this
@@kapvr It's amazing, heavy af. And if you buy it, there are 50% coupon codes from several reviewers on YT.
THis guitar hold up since this video?
Hi. Great Playing dude. Could you tell me what gauge you use on that please
and tunings please
My question is, is it worth buying and paying to have set up and get new pick ups?

Yooo man! It has ibanez wizard neck vibe imo.

@@mathias6423 I was scared about fanned frets, but it was super easy to learn, something about 15 minutes

@@mathias6423 Subzero is the best. Multiscale, great unique look, and pickups are killer (+blocked-keys machine)
Getting this guitar soon. What guage strings did you use? I'm gonna use it for Drop G#
for drop g# i recommend 12-62 (for example ernie ball mammoth)

They did tune up and stay in tune fine but i just prefer thicker strings. Just need to lower the bridge pick up a bit. Also that's a 6-string pack?
@@ThatBlindGuy247 yeaa, maybe. But u know, that was just my recommendation.
I wanna sub but you at 666 right noew
