Description
Sound & Tone
The Lundgren M7 humbuckers push a tight, high-output bridge voice suited to low-tuned riffing, while the neck pickup stays smooth and articulate for leads; the coil-split mini-switch thins things out for cleaner, more open passages. Swamp ash with a poplar burl top over neck-thru construction gives a clear, resonant core with long sustain, and the 26.5" scale keeps the low seventh string defined rather than flubby. With an ebony board, compound 12"-16" radius and 24 stainless frets on an ultra-thin neck, it leans toward modern metal, progressive and djent-oriented playing where fast lead work and precise rhythm articulation both matter.
Schecter KM-7 MK-III Artist Guitar Lagoon Fade B-Stock 0215
The KM-7 MK-III delivers a slim, ergonomic neck that enables precise tracking and seamless layering across all seven strings in the studio. Built in collaboration with Keith Merrow, this instrument combines premium construction with versatile electronics that capture everything from aggressive modern tones to articulate rhythm work with clarity and separation. The stunning Lagoon Fade finish with Poplar Burl top translates beautifully on camera and in video documentation.
Recording Performance & Build
The 26.5" extended scale length and ultra-thin C neck profile (0.748" at the 1st fret, 0.787" at the 12th fret) enable fast, clean tracking takes and multitrack layering without hand fatigue. A 9-piece neck-through design with carbon fiber reinforcement rods maintains tonal consistency and sustain across multiple overdubs, while the 12"-16" compound radius ebony fretboard and 24 X-Jumbo stainless steel frets ensure studio-ready intonation for chord stacks and lead passes alike.
Pickup & Tonal Characteristics
Dual Lundgren M7 humbucking pickups cut through dense mixes with aggressive, high-output bridge response and deliver smooth, articulate neck tones that sit naturally in context. The swamp ash body with poplar burl top and neck-thru construction resonate with clarity and sustain that translates accurately to recording, while passive pickup design keeps your signal path direct and transparent for mixing flexibility.
