Frequently asked questions
How many strings does each guitar have?
The EC-1007B has seven strings tuned to baritone pitch; the MK-EC-FR has six strings in standard tuning.
Which is better for drop tunings?
The EC-1007B excels in drop tunings thanks to its 27-inch baritone scale and EverTune bridge that locks intonation automatically. The MK-EC-FR works for lower tunings on six strings but lacks the baritone scale and auto-intonation system.
Can I use the tremolo on both?
Only the MK-EC-FR has a Floyd Rose 1000SE double-locking tremolo for pitch manipulation. The EC-1007B uses a fixed EverTune bridge designed for tuning stability, not tremolo effects.
Which pickup system is more versatile?
The EC-1007B's Fishman Fluence humbuckers offer pull-to-switch voicing for expanded sonic range. The MK-EC-FR's EMG 85X and 81X are high-output active pickups optimized specifically for aggressive metal articulation without switching options.
