Description
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.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean?
B-Stock means this guitar is fully functional with complete manufacturer warranty, but has minor cosmetic imperfections typical of inventory returns or display models. These marks are purely superficial and have zero impact on playability, tone, or structural integrity.
What tunings and genres is this baritone built for?
The 27" scale and .010–.059 string gauge are optimized for downtuned metal, djent, and hard rock, reducing string tension for lower tunings while maintaining articulate response. The mid-forward aggression and high-gain saturation excel in heavy, aggressive styles but are not suited for jazz, folk, or country.
How do the Fishman Fluence SRC pickups change tone?
The push/pull volume control gives you access to multiple voicing options on each pickup without swapping guitars, letting you dial in clean articulation, mid-forward aggression, or high-gain saturation depending on your playing context.
What skill level do I need to play this guitar?
This is an intermediate to advanced/professional instrument; the thin U-neck and 24 extra-jumbo frets support both fast lead work and heavy riffing, but extended-range baritones demand familiarity with lower tunings and higher fret counts.
Is the neck comfortable for long sessions?
The thin U-contoured three-piece maple neck and 27" scale balance fast fretwork with comfortable sustain, designed to reduce hand fatigue across aggressive playing and extended bending.
