E-II M-II 7B BARITONE EVERTUNE
E-II M-II 7B BARITONE EVERTUNE
PEARL WHITE
I rotate between this guitar and my E-II Horizon NT-7 Evertune. Basically when I go from this to my E-II Horizon it feels like my b*itch. This is just a larger version (baritone) of that guitar essentially. So if you are like me.. I use this guitar for 2 reasons. 1) When Im playing low low tuning. Like A or B. But I'll also tune it up to D Standard/ Drop C and "warm up" with it. Because it's a large guitar with longer frets it can be "hard" to play. So when you go from this to a standard 7 string it's a breeze. I also enjoy this guitar because I'm a large person (6'3, 230 with big hands) and I've always fantasized about a guitar that sits in between a guitar and a bass which this basically is. Drop some heavy gauge strings on this and you're talking a badass metal 6 string with a high octave bass string to fool around with. This thing makes any metal song contemplate its own soul.
Evertune works in all scale lengths. I don't think you understand what the evertune is/does. You still need to have the right string tension by balancing tuning w/ scale length and string gauge. If you go too light on strings w/ an evertune you have to get custom low tension modules. The reason to get a baritone has nothing to do with the reason to get an evertune and vice versa.
The whole point of the evertune is to have a set tuning on the guitar and the bridge compensates for fluctuations that would normally cause you to go out of tune. You can set it up so even bends or unevenly fretting each note in a chord won't cause variations in pitch.
So who would want this? Anyone who understands the evertune and wants a 7 string baritone guitar.
What is the reason for using super light strings on this baritone model? I’ve looked on the EverTune site and if you want to drop tune with the stock string set you need low tension EverTune modules. What modules does this EverTune have? I wonder if a heavier string set should be stock for a baritone guitar if they are designed for alternate lower tunings? Especially as esp make other standard scale length 7 string guitars. Just wondering….
