A Modern 7-String Designed for Today's Metal Playing
With its Wizard-style neck and multi-scale configuration, this guitar clearly fits into the realm of performance-oriented instruments: ergonomics, speed, and clarity in the low end. The combination of a mahogany body and a Mono-rail bridge aims for a firm response, particularly appreciated on heavy riffs, syncopations, and very sharp attacks.
Who Is It For, and In Which Styles?
This electric guitar is primarily aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists who play 7-string, drop tunings, or want cleaner note sustain in the lows. It excels in modern metal, djent, progressive metal, and heavy rock, but remains relevant whenever precision in rhythms and good control of low frequencies are sought, especially in pick playing.
The Sound
The mahogany body provides a warm and dense foundation, with a present low-midrange that adds weight to riffs. The two Array-7 MS (H) humbuckers are suited for saturation: sharp attack, good low-end sustain, and a sound that remains clear when stacking gain and compression. The Mono-rail bridge promotes string separation, useful for extended chords, prog-style intervals, and clean palm mutes. The jumbo frets enhance ease of bends and lead playing comfort, while maintaining a "modern" feel under the fingers.
