Built to Steph’s exact specifications

An 8-string baritone electric guitar needs to facilitate maximum comfort and control. Spec’d by the man himself, the SC-608 is more than capable of handling any down-tuned performance while remaining navigable and comfortable in the hands of any discerning player. Fit with a 3-piece maple neck that boasts a Thin-U profile and neck-through construction, the SC-608 allows you to make light work of leads and riffs up and down the entire fretboard, which boasts dot-style side markers to aid in accuracy as you tread from fret to fret. In conjunction with its exceptional instrument design, the SC-608 is topped off with a gorgeous gloss finish that complements Steph’s iconic onstage aesthetics.

The LTD Signature Series SC-608 Baritone in Yellow finish, is an 8-string guitar at 27” baritone scale, featuring neck-thru-body construction with a mahogany body and three-piece maple neck, Macassar ebony fingerboard and 24 extra-jumbo frets, LTD locking tuners, a Hipshot hardtail bridge with string-thru-body, and a set of Fishman Fluence SRC Signature 3-Voice pickups with a 3-way switch and push-pull control for voice selection.
