Overview

Seven-string power with relentless tuning stability.

The Schecter Sunset-7 ET Red Dawn electric guitar is built for players who demand extreme precision, crushing tone, and unwavering tuning stability. Designed for modern metal and progressive players, this seven-string machine features an extended 27" scale length, an Evertune bridge, and Fishman Fluence Modern Open Core pickups for tight, articulate low-end and searing high-gain aggression. With its striking red and black aesthetics, ultra-fast neck, and premium hardware, the Sunset-7 ET Red Dawn is ready to handle even the most demanding performances.

Extended Range With Uncompromising Playability

The Sunset-7 ET Red Dawn's basswood body provides a balanced tonal foundation, delivering deep, resonant lows and crisp highs. The three-piece maple set neck with an Ultra Access joint ensures seamless upper-fret playability, while the ebony fingerboard with offset red circle inlays enhances both aesthetics and performance. A 27" scale length and Ultra Thin C neck profile make it perfect for complex riffing and lead work.

Fishman Fluence Pickups for Unmatched Versatility

Equipped with Fishman Fluence Modern Open Core pickups, the Sunset-7 ET Red Dawn electric guita delivers the perfect blend of power and clarity. The ceramic bridge pickup provides aggressive distortion with tight bass response, while the alnico neck pickup delivers smooth, expressive leads. With a push-pull volume control and a five-way switch, players can access multiple Fluence voicings, from articulate cleans to full-throttle metal tones.

Evertune Bridge for Unshakable Tuning Stability

The Evertune bridge is a game-changer for players who demand absolute tuning consistency. By maintaining perfect tension across the strings, this system eliminates tuning drift, even under extreme playing conditions. Whether performing live or recording in the studio, the Evertune bridge ensures your guitar stays perfectly in tune, no matter how aggressive your playing style.

Built for Durability and Performance

From its Schecter locking tuners to its Graph Tech Black TUSQ XL nut, every component of the Sunset-7 ET Red Dawn is designed for reliability. The 24 X-Jumbo stainless steel frets provide smooth bends and effortless speed, while the black hardware complements its sleek, aggressive look. Whether you're pushing the limits on stage or laying down heavy tracks in the studio, this guitar is built to handle it all.
