ESP LTD M-7HT Baritone Black Metal Guitar B-Stock

Dark, aggressive design with extended-range power

The ESP LTD M-7HT Baritone Black Metal is a menacing 7-string baritone guitar designed for extreme metal players. Part of the Black Metal Series, this guitar combines the quality of LTD Deluxe 1000 Series instruments with a dark aesthetic—black satin finish, black hardware, Macassar ebony fingerboard with no inlays, and glow-in-the-dark side markers. At a 27” baritone scale, its neck-thru construction with alder body and three-piece extra-thin U-shaped maple neck delivers massive sustain and smooth playability. A Hipshot bridge with string-thru body setup ensures stability and resonance, while the single direct-mounted Seymour Duncan Blackened Black Winter pickup with push-pull coil split delivers brutal, dynamic tones for modern metal and progressive styles.

B-Stock Notice

Why It Stands Out

The ESP LTD M-7HT Baritone Black Metal combines professional-grade hardware, a 7-string baritone scale, and dark, aggressive styling for extreme metal players. Its single Seymour Duncan Blackened Black Winter pickup provides a brutal tonal voice with coil-splitting versatility, while the neck-thru construction, Hipshot bridge, and locking tuners deliver unmatched stability, sustain, and precision for heavy and progressive playing. The black satin finish and inlay-free ebony fingerboard give it a stark, intimidating presence on stage.
