I think it looks absolutely gorgeous, but as has been previously mentioned, it is pure folly to have a 24.45 scale 7 string. That low B is going to be way too flabby to sound even halfway decent. I have no idea what monkey they have thinking these things up, but they need to learn a thing or two about string tensions. Shame, Gibson used to be good, and I dare say they used to know how to build guitars.
