ESP LTD JS-7B Jack Simmons Baritone Guitar Black

ESP LTD JS-7B Jack Simmons Baritone Guitar Black

The JS-7B is a neck-through baritone engineered to capture extended-range heaviness with clarity and sustain. The 27" scale length and thin U-contoured neck provide balanced feel across the wider fingerboard, translating to articulate tracking through high-gain processing and keeping complex riffs locked in your mix. A single high-output Fishman humbucker with multi-voice switching gives you three distinct tonal characters—modern, passive, and vintage-inspired—accessible mid-session via push-pull control, maximizing creative flexibility without swapping instruments.

Construction & Tone Development

Neck-through-body construction fuses mahogany body wings and a three-piece maple neck into a single solid unit, maximizing sustain and harmonic clarity for recording. Every string vibration translates into focused, defined tone that cuts through dense mixes and remains tight under compression and EQ. The Macassar ebony fingerboard with 400mm radius and 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets delivers a fast, responsive surface for precise articulation during tracking sessions, while diamond-shaped pearloid position marker inlays aid quick navigation across the wider baritone spacing. A 48mm Graph Tech TUSQ nut and thin U neck contour are voiced to maintain intonation stability and playability across the extended range, keeping complex riffs controlled and repeatable take after take.

Electronics & Stability

A single Fishman Open Core Modern humbucker with three-voice design—modern active, passive-style, and vintage-inspired voicings—accessible via push-pull control delivers the high-output aggression needed for saturated high-gain tones while maintaining tonal flexibility for rhythm and lead work. The Hipshot 7 hardtail bridge with string-thru-body construction maintains pitch stability and sustain for precise intonation tracking during long sessions, while ESP locking tuners and black hardware keep the instrument locked in tune through extended play and multiple takes.
