Description
HILS introduce the HZ7, an angular model as part of their headless guitar range, this time in a 7-string configuration with fanned frets. Expect an ergonomic feel, exquisite intonation accuracy, and massive tones courtesy of custom 7-string active humbuckers – and it looks just as sharp as it sounds!
Key Features
- Multi-Scale Fanned Frets – Play more comfortably, faster, and for longer with the ergonomoc fanned fretboard, also providing improved intonation for richer chord tones, harmonics, and single-note resonance.
- Active Ceramic Humbuckers – Expect fatter, chunkier chords, crystal-clear cleans, and saturated leads thanks to HILS’ higher-output active ceramic pickups, voiced specially for the guitar’s 7-string multi-scale design.
- Roasted Maple Neck – Play for longer without having to tune due to the roasted Maple neck. The neck has been thermally cooked to remove moisture from the wood which improves the tuning stability.
Classic Tonewoods Meet Cutting-Edge Design
There’s a reason Mahogany is one of the most commonly-used electric guitar body woods. A combination of superior sustain and plenty of low-end depth is complemented by the lush Roasted Maple Neck, balancing the HZ7 with snappiness and smooth playability.
Devastatingly Powerful Humbuckers
Dominate the stage with the powerful custom active 7-string humbuckers designed to literally punch through the mix, and deliver searing lead tones with complete tonal clarity. Whether it’s lightning-quick shred, chunky metal riffs, or simply the clearest & most resonant tones you’re after, this ceramic humbucker double-bill has got you covered.
