Dude, I just got this guitar and have had it for about 2 weeks. Absolutely love everything about it!!!! I just posted a 7 String Death Metal Riff video using it!
Hey! it is amazing I agree it is my absolute favorite 7 string guitar ever... I love the neck-thru and the fact it is all I want from the factory model, so no need to modify anything! I'll check your video now!
Francesco Fareri Thanks man, yeah the neck is a fast neck too! I have had the LTD M1000 Deluxe for several years and have recorded 3 albums with it. That guitar is what made me wanna get this 7 string model. Btw, very nice sweeps!
I own a 6 string Horizon in see thru-black sunburst...i have to say though, this will definetly be in my collection at some point. ESP's Japanese models are top notch. Im not a 7 string player but this 7 string is everything I want in a guitar.
I agree! I own 6, 7 and 8 horizon model and the horizon shape is my favourite! Also i love the neck-thru and the fact that is perfect exactly from the factory! Japan models are over the top!
I one ESP Ltd with ESP 607 and 707. It needs special boosting compared to all my other 7 strings. I like the DiMarzio Drop Sonic 7, Blaze , and the What ever the model is in my EBMM JPXI7 string.
I just got the Turquoise Burst model too and it is beyond awesome! I really dig the 25.5" scale too. My other two 7 strings are 27" which I have found don't work the best for me. I love the feel and response from my new Horizon, that i just ordered the model in the video to replace the baritone scale Horizon NT-7B.
Adam Youdell thanks!!! i did a lot of tests and more are coming about emg. I think this guitar is the best 7 string and emg are super clean for playing!
Hey, Mr. Francesco! This guitar has a coil split feature right? does single coil mode sound like the actual thing, or the sound still kind of sounds like humbucker sound?
Love the looks of this guitar and i'm looking forward to get one of these as my first 7 string guitar, but as i read the specs on this guitar i't a "U" neck shape. i've always owned 6 string "C" neck shape guitars... how does it feel? does the neck shape affect your playing in terms of confort/speed, barred chords and extended shape chords? Thanks beforehand.
WavePlotter hello! This guitar is totally amazing! I love the neck, it isn’t so thin but it is very comfortable both rhythm and solos. Also i love the body shape of the “horizon” models than the “m” models that are flat body like ibanez just to explain. It is for me the best 7 string guitar on the market now! I would love to buy the one with evertune bridge but with emg707!
Might be a odd question. But how does this instrument work with alternative genres besides metal? Can it play through clean tones with a lot of affects?
DeffTone93 this is of course a metal oriented guitar and the clean sound is great but in rock metal style, it is hard to find crunch blues sound with this one but Esp has many models in their catalogue and for example the horizon nt is great for all style i did a video with it! I hope this can help you
I bought this one and don't regret it one bit. The choice was between this and an Ibanez. In my opinion, this one has all the advantages over the Ibanez. The Ibanez has a flatter fingerboard for lower action and faster playing but you can play fast with this, too, of course. And the rounder fingerboard makes chords more comfortable than the Ibanez. AND the Edge Zero tremolo on the Ibanez has issues. ESP all the way for me.

very nice playing
Definitely, one of the cleanest and fastest I've ever seen!
Also, I'm greatly inspired to buy that guitar and learn from you!
Thanks so much! It is an amazing guitar my all time favourite! Thanks

Grande Francesco, fantastico !!! Ho lo stesso modello ma in versione baritona ed a ponte fisso, scoperto sempre tramite un tuo video per la ESP !!!
Molto bella è quella satinata giusto? Gran belle chitarre!
Si è lei, anche se tu la suoni decisamente meglio ahahah Grande Francesco, al prossimo video!
Great video, buddy!
Shape Shifter thanks! This guitar is awesome!

I has one. Turquoise Burst. Its so choice.
mrchris84 wow cool i’ve never seen one that color!

I’m sure it will be fantastic!
Great job! Surprised the EMG haters haven't shown up yet
Adam Youdell thanks!!! i did a lot of tests and more are coming about emg. I think this guitar is the best 7 string and emg are super clean for playing!
I want one of these so bad
I agree this is amazing!
Hey, Mr. Francesco! This guitar has a coil split feature right? does single coil mode sound like the actual thing, or the sound still kind of sounds like humbucker sound?
Hello! No it hasn't a split coil, but I'm sure if you change pickups with EMG707X you can put one on it!

Hy Francesco ! Which gauge of strings is standart for Horizon fr7 blk 9-52 or 10-56 ?
Hello! I’ve always used GHS 9-58 for all my 7 string guitars!

I agree also when you buy an ESP E-II it is perfect that way and you can play immediately without any modifies!
Is the guitar pick connected to your index finger ring in some way ?
Hello! my guitar pick is in standard position between thumb and index only .
Non so se è più spettacolare la chitarra o te... :)
Esagerato ma grazie!!!
Are you playing a particular song?
YES! It is a song of mine features Jeff Loomis guest solo also! Check it out! ruclips.net/video/pLou3LGne6A/видео.html Thanks!
