Description
Sound & Tone
The 28" baritone scale keeps the low seventh string tight and defined in drop tunings, while the mahogany body with ash top gives a resonant midrange core with added top-end snap. The single Lundgren Black Heaven-7 bridge pickup is high-output and aggressive, and its open-coil design keeps note separation intact under heavy gain, so chugging riffs stay percussive and extended chords remain readable. Combined with the ebony board, stainless X-jumbo frets and thru-neck construction, it leans toward modern metal and progressive playing where fast upper-fret runs, tight rhythm attack and killswitch stutters are part of the vocabulary.
Schecter KM-7 MK-III EX Guitar
The KM-7 MK-III EX is a baritone 7-string engineered for extended range work with serious ergonomic refinement. Its thin "C" neck profile and thru-body construction deliver fast access across all 24 frets, while the mahogany body with ash top produces a resonant platform for both aggressive and articulate tones. Built for players who demand precision, comfort, and sonic clarity in drop-tuned territory, this instrument balances modern playability with stage-ready reliability.
Construction & Playability
The thru-neck design with ultra access ensures you can reach the highest frets effortlessly, while the 3-piece hard maple neck reinforced with two carbon fiber rods resists twisting and maintains rock-solid tuning stability. A 12–16" compound radius ebony fretboard paired with 24 X-jumbo stainless-steel frets balances smooth bends with defined articulation, and the 2-way adjustable truss rod with heel-mounted wheel allows quick neck relief adjustments without removing the guitar.
Tone & Electronics
The Lundgren Black Heaven-7 bridge pickup delivers aggressive high-output articulation with open-coil construction that preserves clarity across all seven strings. A single killswitch provides dynamic muting and swelling effects, while Schecter locking tuners and satin black hardware ensure stable tuning and a cohesive look that won't distract during live performance or studio work.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean, and does it affect playability or tone?
This B-Stock unit has minor cosmetic damage to the headstock tip from shipping—purely superficial with zero impact on playability, tone, or structural integrity. You receive the full manufacturer warranty and a significant discount for this cosmetic-only imperfection.
Is this guitar suitable for standard tuning, or is it really only for drop tuning?
The KM-7 MK-III EX is engineered and voiced for extended-range and drop-tuned work; its 28" baritone scale and high-output Lundgren pickup are optimized for that territory. While it can play standard tuning, it's best matched to players working in progressive metal, djent, and extended-range styles.
How does the neck feel, and can I reach the upper frets easily?
The thin C-neck profile (20mm at 1st fret, 21mm at 12th) pairs with thru-body ultra-access construction to make reaching all 24 frets effortless and comfortable for extended sessions. The compound-radius ebony fretboard balances smooth bends with crisp articulation across the range.
What pickup is in this guitar, and how does it sound?
It features a single Lundgren Black Heaven-7 bridge pickup with open-coil construction, delivering aggressive high-output tone with clarity preserved across all seven strings. The open-coil design and single-pickup setup give you a modern metal voice with articulate definition rather than warmth.
What hardware and tuning stability should I expect?
The guitar includes a Hipshot 7-string hardtail bridge, Schecter locking tuners, and a 3-piece hard maple neck with two carbon fiber reinforcement rods, ensuring rock-solid tuning stability even under aggressive play and frequent drop-tuning changes.
