Deftones guitarist Stephen Carpenter has produced some of the most innovative guitar work in the alternative metal category. With the LTD SCT-607B, Carpenter gets a 7-string baritone guitar in a Tele-style alder body with neck-thru design. This, along with the 7 strings and EMG 81-7 pickups, give players the sonic versatility to create both deep metal dirges and washes of shoegaze-inspired noise, all without sounding muddy. And the LTD locking tuners will make sure the guitar won’t easily go out of tune from expressive playing.
