Description
Schecter KM-7 MK-III Artist Guitar Lagoon Fade B-Stock
The KM-7 MK-III puts a slim, ergonomic neck in your hands that rewards fast, fluid playing across all seven strings without compromise. Built in collaboration with Keith Merrow, this instrument balances premium construction with versatile electronics that nail everything from aggressive modern tones to articulate rhythm work. The stunning Lagoon Fade finish with Poplar Burl top commands attention on any stage.
Playability & Construction
The 26.5" scale length and ultra-thin "C" neck profile (0.748" at the 1st fret, 0.787" at the 12th fret) translate to speed and comfort across all seven strings. A 9-piece Wenge/Maple/Purple Heart neck with 2 Carbon Fiber Reinforcement Rods stays rock-solid under playing stress, while the 12"-16" compound radius ebony fretboard and 24 X-Jumbo stainless steel frets let you fret clean chords down low and fly through lead passages up high.
Electronics & Tone
Dual custom-voiced Lundgren M7 humbucking pickups cut through with aggressive, high-output bridge response and deliver smooth, articulate neck tones, controlled via master volume, 3-way toggle, and mini-switch coil split for tonal range without the battery hassle. The swamp ash body with poplar burl top and neck-thru construction resonate with clarity and sustain that holds tight under demanding stage use.
