Description
You asked for it; we answered. For players who love the classic look of the single-cut Eclipse guitar shape, but require a seven-string model in a full 27” baritone scale with the quality of the LTD Deluxe “1000 Series”, the LTD EC-1007 Baritone EverTune has finally arrived. This guitar has it all… a glossy Black finish complemented by gold hardware, and special aesthetic touches like multi-ply body and headstock binding. But that’s just the start. Not only can you downtune this guitar to extraordinary depths for the most gut-thumping riffs while keeping ideal string tension, but the EC-1007 Baritone EverTune will also stay in perfect tune at all points of the neck, thanks to the EverTune constant tension bridge system.
This guitar also features set-thru construction for smooth access to the higher registers, a mahogany body with maple cap, and a fully bound three-piece mahogany neck. Other features include LTD locking tuners, a Macassar ebony fingerboard with ESP flag inlays, and 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets. Its sound is powered by a set of Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker active pickups (ceramic in the bridge and alnico in the neck), with push-pull control to select voicings and gold covers to match this guitar’s incredible aesthetics. Each pickup offers two voices. With the ceramic bridge pickup, Voice 1 is the ultimate high-output ceramic humbucker bridge pickup tone… crisp, searing crunch, tight bass with no mud, and a growl. Voice 2 delivers modern passive attack performance that has superbly organic distortion characteristics with outstanding dynamics and response. The alnico neck pickup’s Voice 1 is Fishman’s modern active high-output tone, offering the ideal active alnico sound: full, round, and boosted, but with unprecedented articulation and dynamics. Voice 2 gives you the crisp, clean and fluid neck humbucker tone you’ve always wanted.
EVERTUNE BRIDGE
The EverTune bridge is an all mechanical bridge system that keeps the guitar’s strings in-tune indefinitely by using a combination of springs, levers and some mathematics, which create constant tension on every string, all while still allowing for expressive playing including vibrato and string bending. The EverTune supports any desired tuning and is a perfect solution for song writing, recording and touring where a guitarists needs to rely on unwavering tuning stability and great intonation across the neck.
