Schecter John Browne Tao-7 7-String Electric Guitar, Ozone Burst

After years of prog-metal experimentation and an intense dedication to guitars and gear, John Browne’s expertise has culminated with the Tao-7 electric guitar from Schecter. With a distinguished tonewood marriage, a pair of scorching Schecter USA humbuckers, and an ultra-fast neck, this 7-string replicates the very style and tone of John’s everyday axe. Undoubtedly, a wealth of sonic versatility is essential to John’s sound design success; therefore, Schecter endowed the Volume knob with a push-pull control, joining a 3-way pickup switch to ensure top-notch audial possibilities. Care to take things to the stage like the man himself? No problem: the Tao-7’s bridge and tuning machines offer excellent intonation stability. What’s more, this iteration of the iconic instrument includes an attention-commanding flame maple top, augmenting the latent firepower of this signature 7-string with immense stage-grade aesthetics. And with a highly visible side marker design, you’ll be able to wield the power of prog metal’s finest in any location possible.
