Frequently asked questions
What's the main difference in string configuration?
The Demon-7 has seven strings for extended low range, while the Demon-6 LH has six strings in standard tuning. The seven-string is better for djent and progressive metal; the six-string suits traditional hard rock and metal.
Why do the scale lengths differ?
The Demon-7 uses a 26.5" scale to maintain tight articulation across seven strings, especially in the lower registers. The Demon-6 LH uses a standard 25.5" scale, which is typical for six-string instruments and provides balanced sustain and playability.
Are these guitars identical otherwise?
Both share the same body wood (basswood), active pickup platform (Schecter Diamond HB-105S), thin C-profile neck, and 24 X-Jumbo frets. The main differences are string count, scale length, fretboard radius (16" vs 14"), and left-hand orientation of the Demon-6 LH.
Which is better for beginners?
The Demon-6 LH is rated for beginner through advanced, while the Demon-7 starts at intermediate. A beginner left-handed player should choose the Demon-6 LH; a beginner right-handed player would need to look elsewhere or start with the Demon-6 right-handed version.
