The ESP LTD SN-1007B Baritone Guitar in Fire Blast is a powerhouse instrument tailored for players who demand extreme versatility and precise performance capabilities, especially in lower tunings. Here’s a detailed review of its specifications and features:

Construction and Design

  • Construction: This guitar features a bolt-on neck construction, providing a clear, crisp tonal attack, and quick response, which are beneficial for styles that require distinct note articulation.
  • Scale: The 27" baritone scale length is ideal for maintaining string tension and stability at lower tunings, providing a tight and responsive feel across all strings, making it perfect for genres like metal, progressive, and other styles that utilize extended range guitars.
  • Body Material: Made of swamp ash, the body offers a lightweight feel with excellent resonance, providing a balanced tone that is both bright and articulate.
  • Neck: A 5-piece roasted maple and purple heart neck enhances the guitar’s stability and contributes to its overall sustain and tonal richness.
  • Fingerboard: The Macassar ebony fingerboard features a compound radius of 300-400mm, facilitating comfortable and fast playability across the fretboard, from smooth chord transitions to fast lead licks.

Playability

  • Nut: A black bone nut, wider at 48mm, provides superior tonal quality and sustain, offering comfortable string spacing for intricate riffing and chordal work.
  • Neck Contour: The Thin U-shaped neck profile is optimized for speed and comfort, allowing quick and effortless fret access across all 24 XJ stainless steel frets, which are scalloped between the 17th and 24th frets for enhanced playability in the upper registers.

Hardware and Electronics

  • Tuners: LTD locking tuners ensure the guitar remains stable in tuning, essential for performance reliability, particularly with lower tunings and aggressive playing styles.
  • Bridge: A Hipshot 7 bridge with string-thru-body design not only increases sustain but also ensures precise intonation across all seven strings.
  • Pickups: Equipped with Fishman Fluence Modern Humbuckers in both the neck (Alnico) and bridge (Ceramic) positions, this setup provides a range of tonal possibilities from clear, clean tones to powerful, high-output drives. The pull tone for Voice 2 feature allows for on-the-fly tonal adjustments, offering a variety of sound textures.
  • Electronics Layout: The control scheme is straightforward yet versatile, featuring one volume and one tone control (both with push/pull functionality), along with a 3-way toggle switch, providing comprehensive control over the sonic output.

Aesthetic and Extras

  • Finish: The Fire Blast finish is striking and vibrant, giving this guitar a visually dynamic appearance that stands out on stage, complemented by black hardware for a cohesive look.
  • Strings: Comes with D'Addario XL110-7 strings, optimized for 7-string baritone tuning, ensuring robust performance and balanced tone suitable for a wide array of musical styles.

The ESP LTD SN-1007B Baritone Guitar in Fire Blast is crafted for guitarists who require an instrument capable of delivering both high-performance features and stunning aesthetics.
