ESP LTD M-7 Black Metal 7-String Baritone Electric Guitar - Black Red Burst Satin

The ESP LTD M-7 Black Metal 7-String Baritone electric guitar brings the stripped-down aggression of LTD's Black Metal design approach to a fast 7-string baritone platform built for tight low tuning. Its 27" scale, set-thru construction, alder body and extra-thin U-shaped 3-piece maple neck give the guitar a controlled feel with strong sustain and clear attack. A Macassar ebony fingerboard with 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets keeps the playing surface clean and responsive, while the Seymour Duncan Mortal Coil 7 String 3-Voice active bridge pickup, Hipshot hardtail bridge and LTD locking tuners support aggressive extended-range rhythm and lead work.

M-Series Speed With Baritone Reach

The M body style has long been associated with players who need speed, clarity and clean access across the neck. In the M-7 Black Metal, that familiar platform is expanded into a seven-string baritone with a 27" scale length for deeper tuning and firmer low-string response. It feels designed for players who want extended range without giving up the quick, purposeful feel of an M-style metal guitar.

Set-Thru Alder Body Construction

Set-thru construction gives the M-7 Black Metal the long sustain and stability needed for heavy low-tuned playing. The alder body provides a focused tonal base that keeps attack and definition present under high gain. Combined with the 27" scale, the construction helps riffs stay clear even when the tuning drops and the picking gets aggressive.

Extra-Thin Maple Neck and Ebony Board

An extra-thin U-shaped 3-piece maple neck keeps the seven-string layout fast and controlled. The Macassar ebony fingerboard is left unadorned for a clean Black Metal look, with 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets providing a durable surface for bends, vibrato and rapid position shifts. The streamlined playing surface keeps the focus on technique and timing.

Mortal Coil Seven-String Voice

The Seymour Duncan Mortal Coil 7 String 3-Voice active bridge pickup gives the M-7 Black Metal a tight, aggressive voice for modern metal. A 3-way toggle selects between the pickup voices, offering multiple bridge responses without complicating the control layout. The single-pickup approach makes the guitar feel immediate, focused and built around the bridge attack that drives heavy rhythm work.

Hipshot Hardtail and Locking Tuners

A Hipshot hardtail bridge with string-thru-body design anchors the baritone setup with a stable, direct feel. LTD locking tuners support tuning confidence and quicker string changes, while black hardware completes the stripped-down Black Metal aesthetic. For seven-string players who want fast M-series ergonomics, baritone tension and a focused active bridge pickup, the LTD M-7 Black Metal is built for serious low-tuned work.
