The Dean Rusty Cooley RC7X 7-String Wraith Electric Guitar was spec'd by Rusty to take shredding to the next level. It features a maple neck with an ebony fretboard and Cooley custom neck profile, 24 fast frets with Pearl Cooley inlays, and a 25.5 scale to facilitate wicked, shredding solos, and lightning-quick chord changes. Dual EMG-707 active humbuckers use 2 alnico magnet coils with a wide aperture to maintain a beefy low end and a fat top for loads of output, while the Floyd Rose Original locking trem unleashes harmonic-squeal madness.
