EverTune Bridge for Unwavering Tuning Stability

7-String Baritone Scale for Extended Range and Powerful Tone

This baritone electric guitar features a 7-string, 27" scale length, providing an extended range that opens up new sonic possibilities for down-tuned riffs, heavy chords and complex melodic lines.

Swamp Ash Body and 5-Piece Neck for a Balanced and Resonant Tone
