ESP LTD SN-1007B Baritone Guitar Fire Blast

Sound & Tone

The 27″ baritone scale and swamp ash body give this seven-string a tight, articulate low end that stays defined in drop and extended-range tunings, while the bolt-on 5-piece roasted maple and purple heart neck adds snap and sustain with a quick attack. Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers cover a wide span, with the ceramic bridge pushing high-output aggression for riffing and the alnico neck offering warmer lead and clean voicings, and the push/pull Voice 2 switching adds a second tonal character on either pickup. The string-thru Hipshot bridge and macassar ebony board reinforce clarity and note separation, making it a natural fit for metal, djent-leaning rhythm work, and progressive playing that moves between chugging low passages and upper-register soloing.

ESP LTD SN-1007B Baritone Guitar Fire Blast

The SN-1007B captures extended-range tunings with rock-solid stability thanks to its 27″ baritone scale, which maintains consistent string tension and articulation even in extreme downtunings. The lightweight swamp ash body paired with a roasted maple/purple heart neck delivers clarity and sustain that translates through the mix, while the thin U-shaped neck and scalloped upper frets enable fast, precise tracking of complex riffing and lead work. This instrument is engineered for studio sessions demanding both aggressive tonal character and dynamic range—ideal for metal, progressive, and other genres where extended-range versatility defines the production.

Playability & Recording Control

The compound radius fingerboard (300–400mm) accommodates both open-position chord layers and high-fret lead passes with equal comfort, streamlining multi-take sessions and reducing hand fatigue during extended recording runs. The 48mm bone nut delivers superior sustain and clear string definition crucial for capturing articulate riff work, while scalloped frets between the 17th and 24th positions provide precise intonation control and consistent attack in the upper register—essential for clean single-take performances and overdub accuracy.

Tone & Recording Electronics

Dual Fishman Fluence Modern Humbuckers—Alnico in the neck position and Ceramic at the bridge—capture articulate cleans and high-output driven tones with minimal noise, while pull-activated Voice 2 switching lets you toggle between two tonal signatures mid-session without re-amping. The Hipshot 7 bridge with string-thru-body design ensures tight intonation and focused sustain across all seven strings, while LTD locking tuners hold pitch stability throughout long tracking days and multiple takes, even under aggressive playing dynamics and extreme tuning depths.
