It was only a couple of weeks ago that I posted about Periphery’s Misha Mansoor receiving his new Daemoness Cimmerian which by the way was a Lagoon Burst 7 String. Meanwhile Misha, who owns a fair few tasty guitars already, had another blue guitar in the works from the Jackson Custom Shop which as you can see is also a 7 string.

Here’s a close up of the carved top body:

And a close up of the 12th fret Periphery logo inlay:

The guitar has Misha’s favourite combination of a Basswood body and Bolt-on Maple neck, Misha had this to say about the guitar over at sevenstring.org:

“The guitar has a ton of attack, and when it comes to rhythm tones, it sits somewhere in between the pissed off sound of the Daemoness and the purry warm chords of Nolly’s ViK. The guitar actually surprised me with how big the low mids were, as i was expecting it to sound a bit thinner, but i think the fact that the body is so thick on the instrument allows for it to have those frequencies, and that really makes it sound big on chords!”

“I have only one qualm with the guitar, because of the thick body and the fact that i didn’t specify what kind of heel i wanted (i am usually not picky) the heel on the guitar is absolutely massive and square, and it makes the access to the highest frets a bit awkward. I told Jackson that and they said they had noticed the heel was a bit on the huge side themselves, and that once im done with the album recording sessions they would be happy to contour it for me!”
