Schecter Guitar Research John Browne Zenith 7-String Electric Guitar - Fracture White

When it comes to clarity, control and stage-ready speed, the Schecter Guitar Research John Browne Zenith 7-string electric guitar doesn't mess around. Designed in collaboration with Monuments guitarist John Browne, this 7-string machine delivers fast playability and focused tone for players who live in drop tunings and complex riffs. The alder body in Fracture White keeps it visually striking and sonically bold, while the quartersawn maple neck and ebony fingerboard offer a smooth, stable surface for technical work. A custom Colossus-7 bridge pickup helps this guitar cut through even the densest mixes. Built with pro players in mind, the Zenith 7 meets the highest standards for modern metal and progressive performance.

Colossus-7 Pickup Unlocks Massive Tone

This guitar gets its voice from the Colossus-7 humbucker—custom-built with John Browne to deliver power and precision in equal measure. With high output and a wide frequency range, it handles tight, low-end riffing without sacrificing clarity up top. The coil-split function on the master volume knob expands your tonal options, making it easy to move between punchy chugs and sharp single-coil textures. Even in high-gain settings, the Colossus-7 keeps your tone articulate and recording-ready.

Fast Thin C Neck and Ebony Fretboard Enhance Technique

From clean sweeps to intricate bends, this neck is made to move with you. The bolt-on quartersawn maple neck features a Thin C profile and carbon fiber rods for added stability, while the 16" radius ebony fretboard keeps things slick and smooth. Stainless steel frets and super green Luminlay side dots help you play with confidence—whether you're in the studio or stepping into a spotlight. It's the kind of feel that turns practice into performance.

Hardware and Controls Support Seamless Adjustments

Every piece of hardware here is built for speed and simplicity. A single master volume with coil split keeps your setup clean, while the Hipshot Ibby HM bridge and locking tuners hold tuning under pressure. The Graph Tech Black TUSQ nut helps eliminate string slippage, and the heel-end spoke wheel truss rod adjustment makes pre-show tweaks quick and painless. Schecter's smart layout lets you focus on your set—not your setup.

Pro Materials and Build Quality

Whether you're gigging or tracking, this guitar is built to take it. The alder body and maple neck deliver long-term durability, while the stainless steel frets resist wear even with constant bends and slides. A rugged finish keeps the body looking sharp, and the included wooden case protects it on the road. Every component—from the bridge to the nut—is chosen with longevity in mind, making this a true Schecter workhorse.

The Zenith 7-String: Built for Modern Metal Players
