ESP STEF T-7/BARI/BLK/FLUENCE REV Seven-String Baritone Guitar
The STEF T-7/BARI captures articulate, controlled low-end frequencies across its extended 27" baritone scale, equipped with a comfortable Thin U neck contour and 24 extra-jumbo frets that support precision tracking and consistent intonation during tracking sessions. Built on a neck-thru-body construction, this seven-string maintains excellent sustain and tonal coherence for layered production work while remaining well-balanced for extended recording runs. The black finish and professional hardware setup mark this as a serious instrument designed for modern metal and extended-range production applications.
Playability & Construction
The 27" baritone scale neck-thru design provides superior sustain and body resonance for dense, punchy rhythm tracking, while the alder body with three-piece maple neck offers a proven tonal foundation that sits predictably in dense mixes. The ebony fingerboard with 305mm radius and side-dot position markers accommodates precise fingering for studio takes, and the 47mm graphite nut ensures reliable tuning stability across all seven strings throughout multi-hour sessions.
Tone & Recording Performance
Equipped with Fishman Fluence® SRC Signature pickups and active electronics, this guitar delivers articulate, modern voicing with responsive dynamics across the extended frequency range required for baritone applications. The Vol/Tone/3-Way Switch layout provides straightforward tonal control for quick palette adjustments between takes, while Sperzel locking tuners and a TonePros locking TOM bridge with string-thru-body design guarantee solid intonation and hardware reliability across your session.
