ESP LTD M-1007B Baritone Guitar Charcoal Burst Satin B-Stock
Description
ESP LTD M-1007B Baritone Guitar Charcoal Burst Satin B-Stock
The M-1007B is a professional seven-string baritone engineered for extreme downtuning in the studio without sacrificing string tension or playability. Its extra-thin u-shaped maple neck and set-thru construction enable fast fretwork access and exceptional sustain across the full range, translating to articulate recordings and dense, defined low-end textures. The striking Charcoal Burst Satin finish with quilted maple top and bound headstock delivers visual presence in the studio while the tonal architecture performs as impressively as it appears.
Recording Architecture & Build
Set-thru construction combines the best of set-neck and neck-thru designs, anchoring the extra-thin u-shaped three-piece maple neck to an alder body with quilted maple top for maximum sustain and resonance—critical for capturing extended decay and harmonic complexity in tracking. The 27" baritone scale maintains optimal string tension across seven strings, delivering consistent pick attack and note definition during recording sessions. The bound Macassar ebony fingerboard with 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets and offset mother-of-pearl dot inlays provides both precision tracking comfort and tactile reference during longer takes.
Tone Shaping & Signal Path
Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker pickups offer dual-voiced tonal character via push-pull switching—the neck position uses Alnico magnets for organic, nuanced dynamics that sit well in fuller mixes, while the bridge Ceramic delivers high-output aggression for cut-through punch, both with Black Nickel covers for reduced noise in the signal chain. The Floyd Rose 1000SE double-locking tremolo and Grover tuners provide the tuning stability essential for baritone tracking and layering, while the 48mm locking nut ensures reliable string retention across all seven strings during extended sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean for this guitar?
B-Stock indicates this unit has minor cosmetic imperfections typical of showroom or returned inventory—purely superficial marks with zero impact on playability, tone, or structural integrity. The guitar carries full manufacturer warranty coverage and is functionally identical to a new instrument.
Is this baritone suitable for standard tuning, or is it only for extreme drops?
The 27-inch baritone scale is optimized for downtuned and extended-range work (metal, djent, drop tunings). While it can technically handle higher tunings, it is purpose-built for extreme low tunings where standard guitars lose tension and clarity.
What is the difference between the neck and bridge pickups?
The neck pickup uses Alnico magnets for organic, dynamic tones, while the bridge uses Ceramic magnets for high-output aggression. Both are Fishman Fluence Modern Humbuckers with a push-pull switch on the tone control to shape voicing.
How does set-thru construction differ from neck-thru or set-neck?
Set-thru combines the best qualities of both designs: the neck is anchored to the body (like a set-neck) for stability and sustain, while also providing enhanced access to higher frets and the extended playability of a neck-thru design.
What hardware and features keep this baritone in tune?
The Floyd Rose 1000SE double-locking tremolo, 48mm locking nut, and Grover tuners with black hardware work together to ensure reliable tuning stability across all seven strings—critical for baritone work.
