Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Josh Smith’s seven-string Soloist pairs a 27-inch scale with an EverTune F7 bridge for low-tuned work that stays intonated across the neck. The HS Bare Knuckle Impulse set places a humbucker at the bridge and a single-coil at the neck, selected with a three-way blade switch and controlled by separate volumes. Touring-oriented details include glow-in-the-dark side dots, a heel-mounted truss-rod adjustment wheel, locking tuners, strap locks, and an included Jackson foam-core hardshell gig bag.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Seven-string parts in low tunings where intonation across the fingerboard is a central requirement.
- Stage work that benefits from visible side dots and quick heel-mounted neck adjustments.
- Players who want a supplied foam-core hardshell gig bag for transport.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players looking for a six-string guitar.
- Players who need a left-handed instrument.
