Frequently asked questions
Which guitar is better for metal?
Both excel at metal. The Omen Extreme-FR suits traditional metal with dynamic vibrato control and bright articulation. The Damien-7 suits modern metal, djent, and progressive styles where the seventh string and extreme low tunings are standard.
What's the key difference in bridge design?
The Omen uses a Floyd Rose Special vibrato system for pitch bending and effects, while the Damien-7 uses a fixed Hipshot bridge optimized for multiscale geometry. Floyd Rose requires more maintenance but offers expressive capabilities; the fixed bridge is set-and-forget with superior stability.
Can I play drop-G or lower tunings on the Omen?
The Omen is designed for standard to drop-D tuning ranges on a 6-string. The Damien-7 with its carbon fiber reinforcement and 27" scale on the low string is engineered specifically for extended low tunings and heavier string gauges.
Is the Damien-7 a B-Stock model?
Yes, the Damien-7 is B-Stock, meaning it may have minor cosmetic imperfections but full functionality and warranty. This typically offers a price reduction on otherwise new, professional-grade hardware.
