Description
Sound & Tone
The 27-inch baritone scale keeps low tunings tight and articulate on the seventh string, while the basswood body and ebony fingerboard lend a focused midrange with a firm, quick attack. Twin Fishman Fluence active humbuckers move from clean, balanced clarity to dense high-gain saturation, and the three selectable voices via the 5-way blade and push-pull volume give you several distinct flavors without changing guitars. It suits modern metal, djent and progressive rhythm work where percussive low-end definition and consistent intonation under heavy string tension matter most.
Schecter Sunset-7 ET Red Dawn Baritone 7-String Electric Guitar – Gloss Black
The Sunset-7 ET is built for gigging and studio work on a 27-inch baritone scale, with a slim, fast Ultra Thin C neck that keeps fatigue out of your hands during long sets. The extended range and heavy tuning stability make this a reliable choice for modern extended-range players—whether you're tracking aggressive material or taking it on the road, the EverTune bridge and active electronics stay locked in no matter how hard you dig in.
Playability & Hardware
The Ultra Thin C neck profile and 16-inch fingerboard radius let you move across the fretboard quickly and set action low without fret buzz. Schecter locking tuners and the EverTune bridge hold intonation tight across all seven strings even under the tension of baritone tuning, while stainless steel frets stay crowned and playable through years of touring and regular use.
Tone & Electronics
The paired Fishman Fluence active humbucking pickups give you three distinct voices switchable via 5-way blade switch with push-pull master volume control, so you can dial in everything from articulate rhythm tones to thick, saturated leads without changing guitars. A Graph Tech Black TUSQ XL nut ensures precise string spacing and clear sustain across the full seven-string range.

Frequently Asked Questions
What neck profile does this guitar have?
The Sunset-7 ET features an Ultra Thin C profile, designed to minimize fatigue during extended playing sessions and make rapid positional shifts and low-action setups feel natural.
How does the intonation stay stable under heavy string tension?
The guitar combines an EverTune bridge with Schecter locking tuners and a Graph Tech Black TUSQ XL nut to maintain rock-solid intonation across the entire 7-string span, even with aggressive tuning and heavy rhythmic content.
What pickup options and tone controls are available?
Two Fishman Fluence active humbucking pickups deliver three selectable voices via a 5-way blade switch with a push-pull master volume control, letting you dial in everything from balanced clarity to saturated aggression.
Is this guitar suitable for standard tuning and traditional rock styles?
No—the Sunset-7 ET is purpose-built for metal, djent, progressive, and drop-tuning applications. Its baritone scale, extended range, and active electronics are optimized for heavy, extended-range playing rather than jazz, country, or blues contexts.
What materials are used in the construction?
The body is basswood, the neck is a 3-piece maple construction, and the fingerboard is ebony with a 16-inch radius and 24 stainless steel frets that resist wear and corrosion for long-term durability.
Do I pay sales tax on this order?
Sales tax is collected only on orders shipped to California; orders shipped to any other US state are not charged sales tax at checkout when you buy direct from our website. At a typical 7% rate that is an estimated $112 less at checkout than the same listed price on a marketplace, which collects sales tax as the facilitator in most states. Buyers remain responsible for any use tax their state applies. Free US shipping and 30-day returns are included.
