HYPE GTR RUN 18 — Standard Scale
(High Alert 7 String)

This Run 18 Hype GTR is a High Alert hardtail 7 string, featuring a Mahogany body, a 3-piece Maple set neck with carbon reinforcing rods, and a sleek Ebony fretboard.

As with all Run 18 Hype GTR models, it comes loaded with custom Ormsby hardware and locking tuners, plus the proven Hot Rock (Bridge) and De La Creme (Neck) pairing — built to deliver tight lows, clear mids, and smooth highs for both rhythm and lead work.

Why the Hot Rock + De La Creme set suits this hardtail 7

A hardtail 7-string wants definition and stability. This stock set is voiced to keep the low B tight, keep chords separated, and still give you a smooth neck voice for leads and cleans — without needing an immediate pickup swap.

Hot Rock — Bridge
Tight lows • Present mids • Clear attack

Built to keep rhythm parts tight and mix-forward — especially important on a 7-string where low notes can blur.

  • Controlled low end: low-string punch without flub.
  • Clear pick attack: fast response for tight chugs and syncopation.
  • Mids that cut: keeps riffs audible in dense mixes.
  • Hardtail-friendly: pairs with the guitar’s sustain for big, authoritative rhythm tone.
Best for

Modern rock/metal rhythm, tight drop tunings, punchy leads, and aggressive riffing.

What you’ll hear

Tight lows, assertive mids, and a crisp, confident bridge voice that stays defined under gain.

De La Creme — Neck
Sweet highs • Vocal mids • Clean definition

A neck voice designed to stay smooth and musical, so leads sing and cleans stay usable — even on a powerful 7.

  • Singing lead tone: smooth top end and vocal mids.
  • Clear cleans: chord definition and note separation.
  • No mud on the low strings: keeps neck tones articulate.
  • Great contrast: switching positions feels like a real tonal change.
Best for

Clean passages, melodic neck leads, warm solos, and expressive “vocal” phrasing.

What you’ll hear

Sweet, open neck tone that stays clear—smooth highs, musical mids, and usable low-string definition.

Hardtail advantage: with no trem system stealing energy, you get maximum sustain and tuning stability — and this pickup set is voiced to turn that into tight rhythm punch + smooth, usable neck tones.
