The Tao represents John Browne's vision applied to a performance-oriented 7-string: effective ergonomics, easy access to the high frets, and carefully selected components for stability and precision. With its Azure finish and satin black hardware, it clearly fits within the range of modern guitars designed for complex rhythms and fast leads, without sacrificing everyday comfort.
This 7-string electric guitar is primarily aimed at intermediate to expert guitarists who play in dropped tunings and seek a fast response under the fingers. It excels in progressive metal, djent, modern metal, but remains relevant for any situation where a precise 7-string, a relaxed fretting hand, and a stable instrument are desired both in the studio and on stage.
The combination of a ash body with a flamed maple top promotes a sharp attack, firm lows, and a well-defined upper spectrum, helping to keep complex chords clear even with high gain. The 27" / 686 mm scale adds tension and better definition on the 7th string, while enhancing the precision feel in palm-muting. The two Schecter USA humbuckers (Colossus 7 and Chaosbreaker 7) are designed to combine power and clarity, with a 3-position selector switch for quick shifts from cutting rhythm tones to more singing leads. The push-pull volume adds a practical voicing option to vary textures without complicating the interface.
The guitar comes equipped with Ernie Ball Regular Slinky 7 2621 (.010-.056) strings: an ideal reference to maintain original tension balance and feel. A case/gig bag is available optional (SGR-1C sold separately): if you choose this option, prefer a hard case or reinforced gig bag to protect the instrument during rehearsals and travel.
