There’s no mistaking the extreme, aggressive shape of the ESP FRX. Its bold, beveled body is designed for musicians who don’t want to blend in; they want to stand out from the crowd, and the ESP FRX CTM offers the style, quality, and incredible playability for serious players in any genre of heavy music. Handcrafted one at a time by the world-renowned luthiers in the ESP Custom Shop in Japan, the ESP FRX CTM is a set-neck design that pairs a mahogany body with burled maple top to a three-piece maple neck in a way that allows for fast and smooth access to the highest frets. Only the highest-end top-tier components have been selected for this FRX model, including a carbon nut, Schaller straplocks, Gotoh locking tuners, a TonePros locking TOM bridge, a Gotoh tailpiece, and an outstanding set of Seymour Duncan Sentient and Nazgûl pickups. This pickup set was specifically designed to offer the searing highs, grinding mids and tight bass tones that define modern metal. Available in Magenta Blue Burst finish. Includes deluxe hardshell case.
