Description
ESP LTD Alexi Laiho Sawtooth 20th Anniversary
This neck-thru-body design delivers the kind of aggressive playability and sustain that defined Alexi Laiho's signature sound. The thin U-shaped maple neck with satin finish provides immediate access to upper frets, while the scalloped board (frets 19–24) enables the speed and precision required for extreme metal technique. Sharp aesthetics match sharp performance—this is an instrument built for players who demand both.
Playability & Construction
The 25.5" scale length and thin three-piece maple neck with satin finish create a fast, responsive platform for technical playing. The Macassar ebony fingerboard with 24 extra-jumbo frets and scalloped frets 19–24 support both aggressive bending and rapid position shifts across the entire neck, while the offset V-shaped alder body balances ergonomics with visual edge.
Tone & Hardware
The single EMG HZ F-H2 passive humbucker delivers the high-output, articulate tones essential to modern metal without active electronics noise. Direct volume-only control layout simplifies on-the-fly adjustments during live performance, while the double-locking Floyd Rose 1000 bridge maintains stable tuning through extreme dive bombs and whammy work. Grover tuners and chrome hardware round out a reliable, road-worthy specification built for touring and session work.
