For today's most discerning metal guitarists, lower tunings and extended scale lengths are crucial to unlocking vast universes of undiscovered riffs and chaotic solos. Enter the ESP E-II M-II 7B Baritone EverTune Electric Guitar, a monstrous 7-string axe with plenty of fire-breathing power and incredible stability. Ideal for low tunings, the M-II 7B's 27-inch scale length increases string tension and makes it easy to achieve clear and articulate drop-tuned playing without any of the unwanted mud. Unleashing the heat are two snarling Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers, the secret recipe for many of today's well-respected touring and session musicians thanks to their wide tonal range and zero-noise operation. And with an EverTune bridge, you're guaranteed exceptional tuning stability and intonation across all seven strings, something that Sweetwater shredders thoroughly appreciate during long supercharged sets.





Scaled for low tunings





The 27-inch scale length on the E-II M-II 7B only means one thing: deep, bellowing, down-tuned destruction. Baritone guitars benefit from increased string tension; you can tune as low as you want without the fear of floppy strings! When paired with an effortlessly playable Thin "U"-shaped 3-piece maple neck and double-cut design, you get unencumbered access to all 24 frets, perfect for furious shredding from head to heel.





Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers pump out aggression and clarity





In need of some seriously smoldering metal tones? Fishman Fluence humbuckers have you covered, delivering many of today's most sought-after sounds. The E-II M-II 7B sports a pair of Fluence Modern Humbuckers, with two distinct voicings and noiseless operation to give you unparalleled performance onstage and in the studio. The Fluence Modern ceramic humbucker in the bridge goes from crispy crunch to screaming heat with ease; it's perfectly complemented by the Fluence Modern alnico humbucker in the neck, which yields a warm and beefy sound ideal for chords, solos, and single-note leads.





Exceptional tuning stability courtesy of EverTune





The EverTune bridge on the ESP E-II M-II 7B is an all-mechanical system that helps you stay in tune longer under any playing situation. Small springs keep constant tension on your strings, giving you long-lasting tuning stability and incredibly accurate intonation. You can even adjust it to control how much your pitch changes when you bend a string. Whether you're playing long gigs or marathon recording sessions, your tuning will be more stable regardless of your playing style, temperature, or other variables.
