With the E-II Horizon NT-7B Hipshot, you might have found your dream guitar, as long as you're able to take advantage of its many world-class features. Let's start at the beginning: it's a 7-string baritone guitar built at 27 scale. Downtuning to extreme levels will never be a problem with this professional-caliber instrument. It offers neck-thru-body construction, with all of the benefits of sustain and stability you'd expect. Adding to this is the Hipshot hardtail bridge with string-thru-body design. The guitar's active pickup set includes the EMG 85-7H (neck) and 81-7H (bridge) for a range of terrific tones from dark and moody to screamingly aggressive for your most brutal rhythms, riffs, and solos.  Top-tier components on the E-II Horizon NT-7B Hipshot include Dunlop Straploks, Gotoh locking tuners, and a bone nut.
