Created for Maximum Down-tuned Aggression

Designed by Stephen Carpenter (Deftones) to support his punishing musical style, the ESP LTD SCT-607B Stephen Carpenter Signature 7-string guitar is primed for a sonic assault. Its neck-through body construction with 27-inch baritone scale length supports extremely low tunings without sacrificing string tension. And for maximum tonal dexterity, a pair of Fishman Fluence SRC Signature active pickups offer multiple voicings via the push/pull volume control. Meanwhile, premium locking tuners and a Tonepros locking Tune-o-matic bridge offer rock-solid tuning stability. If your music calls for the thunderous nature of a down-tuned baritone, you'll be impressed with the ESP LTD SCT-607B Stephen Carpenter Signature guitar.

Signature Fishman Fluence pickups for maximum tonal flexibility

A guitar as unique as the ESP LTD SCT-607B Stephen Carpenter Signature 7-string deserves a unique voice, and that's why Carpenter teamed with Fishman to create these Fluence SRC Signature active pickups. Both pickups offer two distinct voicings, accessible via the push/pull volume pot. For the middle pickup, push down for the "Modern Active" voicing, or pull up for the "Modern Passive Attack" mode. With the bridge pickup, push down for "Modern Passive Attack," or pull up for "Modern Active." Rockers at Sweetwater agree that these pickups offer an extremely useful tonal range no matter how much (or little) gain you're using.

ESP Signature Series guitars deliver the goods

Working closely with the influential guitar slingers in their roster, ESP has built an impressive collection of artist signature instruments. From James Hetfield to Jeff Hanneman, these are the who's who of rock and metal guitardom — and their signature axes sport the personalized features and specs that make them unique. ESP's Signature Series is all about tone and playability — and because they're members of ESP's affordable LTD Series, these guitars offer incredible value. Try an ESP Signature Series solidbody electric guitar. You'll be amazed.

ESP guitars are built to rock hard

ESP started as a manufacturer of after-market guitar parts in Japan in the late '70s. By the mid-'80s, ESP was making custom guitars for some of the biggest names in rock. An exacting eye toward playability and craftsmanship have made ESP Guitars one of the most visible and prevalent guitar brands in rock and metal. Their commitment to quality is second to none, and their impressive roster of endorsers proves it. Including George Lynch, Ron Wood, Gus G., Kirk Hammett, and Alexi Laiho, ESP makes the guitars that today's guitar heroes use.

ESP LTD SCT-607B Stephen Carpenter Signature 7-string Guitar Features:

  • Neck-through body construction with 27-inch baritone scale length
  • 3-piece maple neck with extra thin U-shaped profile for fast playability
  • 24 extra-jumbo frets
  • 2 Active Fishman Fluence SRC Signature pickups each offer two distinct voicings
  • Tonepros Tune-o-matic bridge and locking tuners for rock-solid tuning stability

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!

Rated 5/5

Bearitone, like it’s a Grizzly 7 man

Now I have two favorite guitars from Sweetwater, this and my Matt Heafy Origins 7 string. Yes I am a huge fan of the Fishman Fluence active pickups. Started out as a 5 string bassist hooked on active EMG pickups and the progression to learning to play 7 strings was too easy. Still playing 6 strings for drop tuning and other old school fun too. This is a solid versatile modern guitar that almost plays itself and its asymmetrical neck rules for ripping leads or pounding out phat chords for all genres. Tied for first place guitar. Fitted case that comes with it makes for safe shipping and storage.
Music background: Learned to play by ear with friends and never stopped
