Description
Sound & Tone
The neck-thru mahogany body and 27" baritone scale give this seven-string a thick, focused low end with the string tension needed to keep drop tunings tight and defined rather than flubby, while the macassar ebony fingerboard adds attack and clarity to palm-muted riffing. The Fishman Fluence SRC active humbuckers cover a wide range through the push/pull voicing and 5-way switch, moving from clean articulation to mid-forward bite and saturated high gain without swapping instruments. It's aimed squarely at downtuned metal, heavy alternative, and riff-driven rhythm work, with the thin U neck and 24 extra-jumbo frets keeping lead runs accessible up top.
ESP LTD SC-607B Stephen Carpenter Deftones Baritone Guitar — Magenta Metallic
The SC-607B is a neck-thru baritone engineered for aggressive downtuned work, built with a thin U-shaped neck that locks in fast fretwork while delivering the sustain and resonance that extended-range playing demands. This signature model captures Stephen Carpenter's approach to heavy riffing: articulate pickup response, tonal versatility, and road-ready reliability for both studio sessions and live stages. The striking magenta metallic finish marks this as a serious extended-range instrument purpose-built for players committed to lower tunings and dynamic tone shaping.
Construction & Hardware
Neck-thru mahogany body construction transfers energy directly into the strings, giving you the resonant sustain that makes baritone tunings sing. The thin U-contoured three-piece maple neck sits in your hands naturally whether you're digging into power chords or navigating fast lead passages. At 27" scale with a macassar ebony fingerboard and 24 extra-jumbo frets, string tension stays manageable for lower tunings and aggressive bending. The TonePros locking TOM-style bridge with string-thru-body design paired with LTD locking tuners holds your tuning rock-solid through hard playing and stays locked in night after night on stage.
Electronics & Tone Shaping
Fishman Fluence SRC Signature active humbuckers in neck and bridge positions give you multiple voicing options through the push/pull volume control—switching between clean articulation, mid-forward aggression, and high-gain saturation without reaching for another guitar. The active electronics, volume and tone controls, and 5-way blade switch expand your sonic range for rhythm work and dynamic lead passages, ensuring you're never stuck with one sound.

This B-Stock unit features minor cosmetic imperfections typical of inventory returns or display models. These marks are purely superficial and have absolutely zero impact on the playability, tone, or structural integrity of the guitar. Acquire this premium Stephen Carpenter signature model at a significant B-Stock discount while maintaining complete manufacturer warranty coverage and the legendary build quality ESP is known for.
As a B-Stock instrument it carries a minor factory cosmetic blemish — a small finish mark with no effect on playability, tone or structure — which is why it sells for less than a first-quality unit. The exact blemish varies from unit to unit, so it is not described or pictured here; photos show the model, not the individual unit. It is new, unplayed and covered by the full manufacturer warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean?
B-Stock means this unit is new and unplayed with full manufacturer warranty, but carries minor cosmetic blemishes—such as small finish marks—typical of inventory returns or display models. The exact blemish varies by unit and has zero impact on playability, tone, or structural integrity, which is why it sells for significantly less than a first-quality unit.
Is this guitar suitable for standard tuning, or is it really built for drop tunings?
This baritone is engineered specifically for downtuned and extended-range playing; its 27-inch scale, 1.88-inch nut width, and extra-jumbo frets are optimized for lower tunings to reduce string tension and finger fatigue. While capable of standard tuning, it is designed for and best suited to metal, djent, and aggressive lower-register styles.
What are the Fishman Fluence SRC voicing options?
The Fishman Fluence SRC Signature humbuckers include a push/pull volume control that switches between voicing options, giving you access to clean articulation, mid-forward aggression, and high-gain saturation without changing guitars. The 5-way blade switch provides additional tonal shaping across neck and bridge pickup combinations.
How does the neck feel, and will it work for fast lead work?
The thin U-contoured three-piece maple neck with a 15.7-inch radius fingerboard balances fast fretwork with comfortable sustain; the narrow profile reduces finger fatigue during extended-range passages and accommodates both heavy riffing and dynamic lead work.
What tuning should I use, and what gauge strings come on it?
This model ships with D'Addario XL110-7 (.010–.059) strings and is optimized for drop tunings and baritone voicings; the 27-inch scale and reduced string tension make lower tunings the intended use, though specific tuning depends on your musical application.
