Created for Maximum Down-tuned Aggression

Designed by Stephen Carpenter (Deftones) to support his punishing musical style, the ESP LTD SCT-607B Stephen Carpenter Signature 7-string guitar is primed for a sonic assault. Its neck-through body construction with 27-inch baritone scale length supports extremely low tunings without sacrificing string tension. And for maximum tonal dexterity, a pair of Fishman Fluence SRC Signature active pickups offer multiple voicings via the push/pull volume control. Meanwhile, premium locking tuners and a Tonepros locking Tune-o-matic bridge offer rock-solid tuning stability. If your music calls for the thunderous nature of a down-tuned baritone, you'll be impressed with the ESP LTD SCT-607B Stephen Carpenter Signature guitar.

Signature Fishman Fluence pickups for maximum tonal flexibility

A guitar as unique as the ESP LTD SCT-607B Stephen Carpenter Signature 7-string deserves a unique voice, and that's why Carpenter teamed with Fishman to create these Fluence SRC Signature active pickups. Both pickups offer two distinct voicings, accessible via the push-pull volume pot. For the middle pickup, push down for the "Modern Active" voicing, or pull up for the "Modern Passive Attack" mode. With the bridge pickup, push down for "Modern Passive Attack," or pull up for "Modern Active." Rockers at Sweetwater agree that these pickups offer an extremely useful tonal range no matter how much (or little) gain you're using.

ESP Signature Series guitars deliver the goods

Working closely with the influential guitar slingers in their roster, ESP has built an impressive collection of artist signature instruments. From James Hetfield to Jeff Hanneman, these are the who's who of rock and metal guitardom — and their signature axes sport the personalized features and specs that make them unique. ESP's Signature Series is all about tone and playability — and because they're members of ESP's affordable LTD Series, these guitars offer incredible value. Try an ESP Signature Series solidbody electric guitar. You'll be amazed.

ESP guitars are built to rock hard

ESP started as a manufacturer of after-market guitar parts in Japan in the late '70s. By the mid-'80s, ESP was making custom guitars for some of the biggest names in rock. An exacting eye toward playability and craftsmanship have made ESP Guitars one of the most visible and prevalent guitar brands in rock and metal. Their commitment to quality is second to none, and their impressive roster of endorsers proves it. Including George Lynch, Ron Wood, Gus G., Kirk Hammett, and Alexi Laiho, ESP makes the guitars that today's guitar heroes use.

Rated 5/5

Absolute MONSTER!!

So, technically I did not buy this from Sweetwater, but off of someone who did. Despite that, this is one of the best guitars I've had the pleasure of playing. First off, the aesthetics of this guitar are outstanding. The green sparkle really shines in the sunlight and the Pearloid pickguard and binding are a pleasing sight to see while playing. Second off, playability is off the charts. The neck is thin but rounded and feels great for chugs and shredding. The only downside to playability is the body style, trying to reach the upper frets is a bit tricky due to the single cut format. Lastly, the pickups sound amazing, though they might be a little offputting at first. Fortunately, they have the ability to have that active OR passive sound and it's nice to switch things up.

TL;DR: If you've been eyeing this guitar for a bit but have been nervous about committing to it, I say you MUST get it. It's a killer guitar and I think you'll put it in your top 5.
Music background: Playing guitar for about 4 years now.
