We started from scratch to develop the 507X. We wanted to give our extended range players a feature-packed, great-sounding 7 string. In developing this instrument, we focused on the feel of the neck, increased access to the high frets, and enhanced sonic options. Together, these priorities produced a 7-string that sounds terrific and feels natural and intuitive. You will love the sound and the sonic options on the 507X. We used specially-voiced Rockfield SW7s and then expanded the tone options with our Great 8 wiring mod. Use the provided push-pull pots to transition from the full throat sound of these humbuckers to a single coil classic tone. The 507X brings everything to the table in terms of feel and performance and looks like a rock star doing it with either a Satin Black Wash finish or a Black Cherry Burst.
