TheSchecter Diamond Series Keith Merrow KM-7 MK-III EX Baritone in Satin Black Open Pore is a no-compromise modern metal machine engineered for extreme clarity, devastating low-end, and absolute precision. Designed in close collaboration with Keith Merrow, this 7-string baritone version expands the platforms sonic reach while maintaining the stripped-down, performance-first philosophy that defines the MK-III line.
Built around a resonant mahogany body with an ash top, the KM-7 MK-III EX delivers a powerful blend of warmth, punch, and articulation. The 28 baritone scale length ensures exceptional string tension and note definition on the lowest registers, making it ideal for modern extended-range riffing and complex high-gain work. Finished in a stealthy Satin Black Open Pore, the guitar feels raw, organic, and purpose-built.
The thru-neck construction with Ultra Access provides massive sustain and seamless upper-fret reach, while the 3-piece mahogany neckreinforced with carbon fiber rodsoffers outstanding stability under heavy string tension. Carved into a fast Thin C profile (20mm at the 1st fret, 21mm at the 12th), the neck pairs perfectly with an ebony fingerboard, 1216 compound radius, and 24 X-Jumbo stainless steel frets for effortless speed, accuracy, and durability. Aluminum offset/reverse circle inlays and Luminlay side dots add both visual identity and practical stage visibility.
Electronics are intentionally minimal and brutally effective. A single Lundgren Black Heaven bridge humbucker delivers articulate, aggressive output with exceptional note separation, ensuring tight, percussive attack even under extreme gain. Control is handled by a single killswitch, giving instant on/off signal control for stutter effects and total sonic authority.
Premium hardware completes the build, including a Hipshot 7-string bridge, Schecter locking tuners, and a Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut, ensuring rock-solid tuning stability and sustain. Factory-strung with Ernie Ball 7-string (.009.062) strings, the KM-7 MK-III EX arrives ready for modern baritone destruction straight out of the case.
