In our quest for great sounding instruments that can handle any environment, we have tried the full gamut of makers available on the market. Of the makers that we tested, we have only found a few that meet the needs of our discerning players. Emerald Guitars based out of the UK continually impresses us with not only the quality of construction of their incredible Carbon Fiber instruments, but also with their responsive voice and ideal price point.
The X7 is one of their small body Travel guitars with a Venetian cutaway and an offset soundhole. Lightweight in build, but a heavyweight in durability and tone, this guitar comes standard with B-Band electronics and a great, heavy duty gig bag. These guitars have a full 24″ scale length so it feels very normal to go between this guitar and your “regular” 25″-25.5″ scale length instruments. Comprised entirely of space age Carbon Fiber, this piece is ready for anything you throw its way. Great for the stage and the outdoors alike!
I am so impressed with Emerald guitars. They are very well made and have a lively voice that is truly pleasing. Even the small body on this X7 produces a big voice. This is a perfect travel guitar or for the outdoors enthusiast. Comes with a quality gig bag. 
Great sound for a small guitar. The action is a bit low, but that's easy to change on a carbon fiber guitar. It's also easy to use any gauge strings without having the action change once it's set where you like. | Scale Length | 24 in |
