Hard-rocking 7-string from Schecter

The E-7 Apocalypse from Schecter is an expertly constructed, hard-rocking solidbody electric built for blazing speed and big tone. Featuring a beautiful swamp ash body cut to a classic offset design, the E-7 is resonant and comfortable for hours of woodshedding. A maple/padauk thin "C" neck with ebony fingerboard provides incredible playability and response for fast leads and chunky power chords. In addition, a pair of Schecter Apocalypse-VII pickups kicks out classic hot humbucking sounds, and a TonePros T3BT Tune-o-matic bridge supports stellar sustain and tone.

Pickups wired for tone and power

The Schecter Apocalypse-VII humbuckers in the E-7 feature a unique tri-field design that combine Alnico V magnets with dual flanking Ceramic 8s. The result is an incredibly balanced, aggressive tone that's soaked in a tight midrange and cuts through the mix. And with a 3-way pickup selector and master tone control with push-pull for coil splitting, you can access a wide array of tone shaping options.

Neck designed for speed and response

With its great feel, the responsive neck on the E-7 is built for speed. The maple/padauk neck with ebony fingerboard features 24 extra-jumbo frets that make for great bends and comfortable fretting. And the TonePros T3BT Tune-o-matic bridge provides outstanding sustain support, so you can go for those face-melting notes over and over. Whether laying down blistering leads or heavy power chords, Sweetwater guitarists keep reaching for the E-7 again and again. Pick one up, plug in, and see for yourself!

Why Buy Your Guitar from Sweetwater?

See how Sweetwater goes to great lengths to give you the very best online guitar buying experience. From our online Guitar Gallery that allows you to see and select the exact instrument you want to our 55-point Inspection process and our in-house guitar techs, we take the guesswork out of buying your next guitar online.

What is Demo Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call a "demo" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

What demo means to us is that we've had it out of the box, or maybe it was in a customer's hands for a few days and isn't "factory fresh" as a result. Every demo item we sell has Sweetwater's 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty, and has been tested and verified up to "new" specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it's in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Demo item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

Great guitar

This thing feels and plays great. It's one of the most sinister sounding guitars in my collection. I would recommend this to any metal players who are fans of this shape.
