Schecter KM-7 MK-III Artist Guitar Lagoon Fade B-Stock 0215
Description
Schecter KM-7 MK-III Artist Guitar Lagoon Fade B-Stock
The KM-7 MK-III delivers an exceptionally slim, ergonomic neck profile that translates to fast, comfortable tracking across all seven strings without compromising playability. Designed in collaboration with Keith Merrow, this instrument combines premium construction with versatile electronics engineered to capture both aggressive modern tones and articulate rhythm parts in the studio. The stunning Lagoon Fade finish with Poplar Burl top creates a visually striking modern aesthetic that photographs and films well.
Playability & Recording-Ready Construction
The 26.5" scale length and ultra-thin "C" neck profile (0.748" at the 1st fret, 0.787" at the 12th fret) enable fast, comfortable tracking across all seven strings during extended recording sessions. A 9-piece Wenge/Maple/Purple Heart neck with 2 Carbon Fiber Reinforcement Rods provides exceptional stability and tone transfer, while the 12"-16" compound radius ebony fretboard and 24 X-Jumbo stainless steel frets balance easy chording at lower positions with precision for lead work higher up the neck.
Electronics & Studio Versatility
Dual custom-voiced Lundgren M7 humbucking pickups capture aggressive, high-output bridge tones and smooth, articulate neck voicings, controlled via master volume, 3-way toggle, and mini-switch coil split for maximum tonal range across multiple takes without battery dependence. The swamp ash body with poplar burl top and neck-thru construction ensure clear, resonant tones with extended sustain that sits well in dense mixes.
