Description
The world of 7-string guitars has exploded in recent years, with many players in the hard rock and metal community enjoying the extended low range that the extra string provides. The LTD EC-407 was designed for performance with exactly these things in mind. The 3 pc. maple neck and mahogany body with maple cap ensure that even your lowest notes will stand out to the crowd. In addition, you get an attainable way to get into professional 7-string playing, with premier construction and active electronics (EMG 81-7 / 707). Available with matching black satin hardware, and 24 XJ fret rosewood fingerboard.
EMG 707:
The 707 has been leading the pack of 7-string guitar pickups since its debut in 2001. The EMG 707 eliminated the problem of a muddy low B string that often lacked rich harmonic character and definition. Featuring Alnico V loaded, wide aperture coils, EMG was able to beef up the Low B string tone while maintaining a balanced and articulate upper register. This provided the responsive and tight sound seven string players grew to love. Whether you are ringing out Opeth-style jazz chords or playing palm muted death chugs, these pickups will articulate every note, chord, and harmonic you ask of them. Used equally in the bridge and neck positions, these pickups will forever change how you hear and play your 7-string guitar.
EMG 81-7:
Based off the popular EMG 81, the 81-7 utilizes powerful ceramic magnets and close aperture coils to produce a detailed tone with incredible amounts of high end cut, and fluid sustain. Traditionally used in the bridge position of your seven string guitar, this pickup will make your leads slice right through even the densest mix.
