The X7’s smooth arm bevels and asymmetrical side design deliver remarkable comfort for the player. Meanwhile, a 24” scale and a deep rear cutaway on its carbon fiber body offer playability right up to the 20th fret. This parlor-sized shorter-scale guitar produces a full, punchy mid-range tone; perfect for old school blues, slide, folk and lots more.

Hi-Tech Carbon

Carbon fiber is now used in all the most high tech industries from Aerospace to Formula one Racing where strength and weight is paramount. In fact it was in Formula One Power Boat racing that we discovered that the properties of carbon fiber are also perfectly suited to guitar making creating a lightweight structure that holds up under the tension of the strings while resonating freely with the lightest touch.

X7 W
Weather Resistant

If you have ever traveled with a guitar you will know just how much temperature and humidity changes can effect the structure, tuning stability and tone of a guitar. This is where carbon fibre construction really excells. Now you can take your guitar from a cold car to a warm stage without worrying that your going to go out of tune after the first strum. 

X7 U
Unique Manufacturing Process

Intricacy is our excellence. Our signature one-piece moulding process delivers a guitar that is both incredibly strong and stable, resulting in fewer trips to your local luthier. The entire neck and body of Emerald Guitars are moulded together resulting in no joints becoming weak or failing over time whilst delivering impeccable resonance and sustain.

Real Wood Veneer

While tone is key, aesthetics are an important consideration in guitar design. Some players love the look of carbon fiber, and its aesthetic impact.

A New Era of Custom Guitar Design

When choosing the elements for each part of your custom guitar, you’ll see the updated choices live-as-you-go in the 3D Builder. You can even change the environment in which you view the guitars, switching from a standard white studio background to the Emerald Cottage, to see how your guitar looks in different scenarios.

X7 - The nicest travel guitar

The nicest travel guitar anyone could ever want. Sounds great acoustically but plugged in it comes alive. It has its own voice compared to my X20 but sits in a mix really cool. Very comfortable 12 fret to the body but access up to 20. I can play all my songs on it. Super light and it just looks badass.
