zZounds Gear Experts Say...
Basswood body. Maple neck with slim profile. Rosewood fingerboard.

The X27 features a Basswood body for a comfortable feel and huge tone. The satin-finished Maple neck includes a slim profile that makes this guitar extremely easy to play and a Rosewood fingerboard with 24 jumbo frets. In order to have a powerful 7-string guitar the pickups have to be hot enough for the job. The X27 comes through with flying colors because of the 7-pole humbuckers that deliver a crushing tone with a lot of detail. The X27 also includes sealed die-cast tuners, a string-thru-body, an adjustable bridge and black hardware.
