Sound & Tone
The 27" baritone scale and swamp ash body give this seven-string a tight, articulate low end that stays defined in drop and extended-range tunings, while the bolt-on 5-piece roasted maple and purple heart neck adds snap and sustain with a quick attack. Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers cover a wide span, with the ceramic bridge pushing high-output aggression for riffing and the alnico neck offering warmer lead and clean voicings, and the push/pull Voice 2 switching adds a second tonal character on either pickup. The string-thru Hipshot bridge and macassar ebony board reinforce clarity and note separation, making it a natural fit for metal, djent-leaning rhythm work, and progressive playing that moves between chugging low passages and upper-register soloing.
ESP LTD SN-1007B Baritone Guitar Fire Blast
The SN-1007B delivers a thin U-shaped neck profile that favors speed and comfort across its full 24-fret span, with scalloped upper frets that make extended-range work feel effortless. The 27" baritone scale maintains rock-solid string tension and stability at extreme tunings, while the lightweight swamp ash body and roasted maple/purple heart neck provide clarity and sustain without sacrificing responsiveness. This is a purpose-built instrument for players working in metal, progressive, and other styles that demand both aggressive performance and tonal versatility.
Playability & Feel
The compound radius fingerboard (300–400mm) smooths the transition between open-position chord work and high-fret soloing, while the 48mm bone nut offers superior sustain and comfortable string spacing for intricate riffing. Scalloped frets between the 17th and 24th positions reduce finger fatigue during fast lead passages and give players precise control in the upper register without adding unwanted resistance.
Tone & Electronics
Dual Fishman Fluence Modern Humbuckers—Alnico in the neck position and Ceramic at the bridge—deliver everything from articulate cleans to high-output driven tones, with pull-activated Voice 2 switching for on-the-fly sonic flexibility. The Hipshot 7 bridge with string-thru-body design maximizes sustain and intonation precision across all seven strings, while LTD locking tuners ensure rock-solid stability even under the demands of lower tunings and aggressive picking.

Frequently Asked Questions
What tuning styles is the SN-1007B designed for?
The 27" baritone scale length and 7-string configuration are engineered specifically for drop tunings and extended-range playing in metal and progressive genres. The heavier scale maintains rock-solid string tension and stability even under extreme tuning demands, making it ideal for players who regularly work well below standard pitch.
How does the scalloped fretboard affect playability?
Scalloping between frets 17–24 reduces finger friction in the upper register, making rapid lead passages and sustained bends feel effortless without adding difficulty to open-position chord work. The compound radius fingerboard (300–400mm) creates a seamless transition across the full 24-fret span, supporting both intricate riffing and fast soloing.
What pickup switching options are available?
The dual Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers feature push/pull Voice 2 switching, allowing instant tonal shaping on the fly. The neck pickup uses Alnico magnets for warmth and clarity, while the bridge uses Ceramic for higher output and aggression, giving you flexibility from articulate cleans to driven metal tones.
Is this guitar suitable for beginners or intermediate players?
The SN-1007B is designed for advanced and professional players working in metal, progressive, and high-demand styles. The extended scale, thin neck profile, and 7-string configuration are optimized for players already comfortable with drop tunings and extended-range technique.
What materials contribute to the tone and sustain?
The lightweight swamp ash body provides excellent resonance and articulation, while the 5-piece roasted maple and purple heart neck enhances stability and sustain. The Hipshot 7 bridge with string-thru-body design maximizes sustain and intonation precision across all seven strings, and the 48mm bone nut delivers superior tonal quality.
