Going Deeper: The Emerald X20 Baritone & X20-7
Looking to explore deeper, more resonant tones from your acoustic guitar? For players who want extended range, richer low end, and new creative possibilities, the Emerald X20 Baritone and X20-7 have long stood out as two of the most inspiring options in the Emerald lineup.
Both models are set to be retired at the end of 2025, making now the final opportunity to own one of these exceptional extended-range acoustics.
Why Choose an Emerald Acoustic Guitar with an extended range?
Extended-range guitars open up entirely new musical territory. Whether tuned lower than standard or featuring additional strings, these instruments allow players to explore deeper registers, richer chord voicings, and fresh melodic ideas that simply aren’t possible on a traditional 6-string acoustic.
From modern fingerstyle and cinematic arrangements to jazz, metal, and alternative tunings, extended-range acoustics have become invaluable tools for players looking to stand out sonically.
X20 Baritone — Deep, Resonant, and Inspiring Tones.
The X20 Baritone takes Emerald’s best-selling acoustic model and pushes it into a deeper register. Built on an extended 27″ scale length and typically tuned a fourth below standard(B-E-A-D-F#-B), it delivers a powerful, resonant low end while maintaining clarity and balance across the fretboard.
Baritone guitars have a long history in studio and performance settings, prized for their ability to add weight, texture, and atmosphere to a mix. The X20 Baritone excels in solo performance, vocal accompaniment, and composition, where its deep fundamentals fill space with ease and authority.
As with all Emerald guitars, carbon fiber construction ensures exceptional tuning stability, reliability across changing climates, and a consistent setup — making it an ideal choice for touring musicians and studio players alike. The player-facing soundhole and ergonomic body contours create an immersive and comfortable playing experience, even during long sessions on stage or in the studio.
X20-7 — Expanding the Acoustic Guitar’s Range
For players who want more range without changing tuning, the X20-7 adds an additional low B string beneath the standard six. This opens the door to extended bass lines, richer harmony, and new chord shapes while preserving the familiar feel of a standard acoustic guitar.
Popular across genres including metal, jazz, funk, neo-soul, and modern acoustic styles, the X20-7 offers exceptional versatility. Its fanned-fret design ensures accurate intonation across all seven strings, while the ergonomic carbon fiber body and seamless neck heel provide outstanding comfort and playability.
The result is a guitar that feels immediately familiar yet endlessly inspiring — perfect for players ready to explore beyond traditional acoustic boundaries.
