ESP SCT-607B Baritone Electric Guitar Black

Description

The ESP LTD Signature Series SCT-607 Baritone is the signature electric of Stephen Carpenter, a founding member of California-based alt-metal gurus Deftones. Carpenter uses extended range guitars to push the limits of what was previously thought possible, with rich atmospheric textures, intricate riffs and heavy breakdowns. While based on a traditional shape, the SCT-607B is anything but old-school with its 7-string, 27" baritone scale and neck-thru-body construction. It features a comfortable alder body and a three-piece maple neck, with an unadorned Macassar ebony fingerboard with 24 extra-jumbo frets. Its sound comes from a set of Stephen’s own signature Fishman Fluence pickups, with a ceramic pickup in the bridge and an alnico pickup in the middle position. These pickups have two voices, selectable with a push-pull volume control. Voice 1 (Modern Active) is Stephen’s midrange tweak on the original modern Fluence sound; Voice 2 (Modern Passive Attack) is Stephen’s custom voicing with some tone and gain tweaks to give it extra heat and edge. Other pro components on the SCT-607 Baritone include a TonePros locking TOM bridge with string-thru-body design for excellent sustain. An ESP deluxe hardshell case is also included.
