Description
Sound & Tone
The 27" baritone scale keeps all seven strings tight and defined even in low tunings, while the swamp ash body and 5-piece roasted maple/purple heart neck lend a balanced, resonant foundation with clear note separation. Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers push that into modern territory: the ceramic bridge delivers aggressive, cutting punch for riffing and tight palm-muted rhythms, and the alnico neck offers a warmer, articulate voice for leads and cleaner passages. Push-pull coil splitting opens up thinner, more open voicings, making it a fit for modern metal, djent and progressive playing where low-end clarity and upper-register precision both matter.
ESP LTD SN-1007HT 7-String Baritone Guitar in Black Blast
The SN-1007HT captures tight, focused low-end across all seven strings even in extreme tunings, anchored by its 27" baritone scale and a thin U-contoured neck that tracks smoothly through dense, complex tracking sessions. The swamp ash body with sandblasted Black Blast finish delivers resonant, balanced acoustics that translate clearly through the active Fishman electronics, cutting through a mix with definition rather than muddiness. Built as a serious recording and production tool for extended-range work.
Playability & Construction
The neck is a 5-piece roasted maple and purple heart construction with a thin U contour, engineered for stability during long tracking sessions and speed across technical passages without fatigue. The Macassar ebony fingerboard features a compound radius of 11.8"-15.7" with 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, scalloped from frets 17-24 for enhanced control and precision in the upper register—critical for layering textures and harmonies in the studio.
Tone & Recording Character
Fishman Fluence Modern Humbuckers with an alnico neck pickup and ceramic bridge pickup deliver articulate warmth and aggressive punch respectively, capturing clarity at low tunings while maintaining definition in dense mixes. Both pickups are splittable via push-pull tone control, accessing secondary voicings that expand the palette across sessions—from modern metal and progressive to textural ambient work.

Frequently Asked Questions
What tuning range does the 27-inch baritone scale support?
The 27" scale is engineered for extreme drop tunings and extended-range playing typical of modern metal and progressive music. The stainless steel frets and hardtail bridge maintain stability and intonation across these tunings without fret buzz, especially thanks to the scalloped upper frets (17–24).
Can I split the pickups for different tones?
Yes. Both the alnico neck and ceramic bridge Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers are splittable via a push-pull tone control, unlocking secondary voicings for expanded tonal range beyond standard humbucker sounds.
Is the neck comfortable for fast technical playing?
The thin U contour balances speed with comfort during fast passages, and the compound radius fingerboard (11.8"–15.7") adapts from a flatter neck for chording to a more curved upper register. Scalloped frets 17–24 provide enhanced control and precision in higher positions.
What skill level is this guitar designed for?
This is an advanced/professional-grade instrument built for players with experience in extended-range and technical playing. It is best suited for metal, progressive, djent, and experimental music and is not recommended for jazz, blues, or country styles.
What hardware and construction details ensure reliability in demanding use?
The instrument features a roasted maple and purpleheart 5-piece neck for stability in extreme tunings, a swamp ash body, 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, a Hipshot hardtail bridge with string-thru body design, and LTD locking tuners—all designed for road and studio durability.
