Sound & Tone
The 27" baritone scale and seven-string layout keep low tunings tight and defined, while the alder body with quilted maple top and set-thru maple neck push a focused midrange and long sustain. Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers cover two distinct voices per position — the Alnico neck leaning organic and dynamic for leads, the Ceramic bridge hitting hard and high-output for palm-muted rhythm — with push-pull switching to move between them. Macassar ebony and stainless frets add snap and clarity up top, and the Floyd Rose 1000SE holds tuning through dive-heavy modern metal, djent, and progressive playing.
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, and will it affect the guitar's tone or playability?
B-Stock indicates the unit has minor cosmetic imperfections only—no impact on playability, tone, or structural integrity. The M-1007B is fully functional with complete manufacturer warranty coverage, making it an excellent value proposition for gigging and recording musicians.
What tunings and genres is this baritone best suited for?
The 27" baritone scale and seven-string configuration excel in metal, djent, and drop-tuning work where extreme downtuning without loss of string tension is essential. The high-output Ceramic bridge pickup and tight low end are designed for aggressive rhythm and extended-range lead work; it is not optimized for jazz, traditional blues, or folk applications.
How does the Fishman Fluence Modern pickup switching work, and what tonal options does it provide?
The push-pull tone control switches between dual voicings: the neck pickup uses Alnico magnets for organic dynamics and articulate sustain, while the bridge features Ceramic magnets for high-output aggression. This gives you flexible tonal range from smooth lead tones to thick, punchy rhythm textures without changing pickups or equipment.
What hardware and construction features ensure tuning stability for extreme downtuning?
The M-1007B combines a 48mm locking nut, Floyd Rose 1000SE double-locking tremolo, Grover tuners, and set-thru construction (which anchors a three-piece maple neck to the body for enhanced sustain and stability). Together, these features maintain precise intonation and tuning stability across all seven strings during aggressive playing and extended session work.
How does the set-thru construction compare to neck-thru or bolt-on designs?
Set-thru construction anchors the neck directly into the alder body, combining the stability and sustain characteristics of both set-neck and neck-thru designs while maintaining easy access to upper frets. This design is ideal for baritone players needing maximum sustain and structural rigidity during downtuned, high-output playing.
