Sound & Tone
The mahogany body and set-thru neck give this single-cut a thick, warm foundation, while the active EMG 81 in the bridge cuts through with tight, aggressive attack and the EMG 85 in the neck stays smooth and vocal for leads. The 24.75" scale adds a little slack and midrange thickness to the strings, and the fixed TOM-style bridge keeps notes focused and sustaining with solid tuning stability. That combination points squarely at hard rock and metal — chugging rhythm work, high-gain leads, and low-noise recording — though the neck pickup and master tone control leave room for cleaner, rounder passages when you back off the gain.
ESP LTD EC-400 QM Vintage Burst
The EC-400 QM sits naturally in your hand with its set-thru construction and thin U-profile neck, delivering a comfortable, fast playing experience that rewards extended sessions. This solidbody electric balances the warmth of mahogany with the visual appeal of a quilted maple top, finished in classic Vintage Burst with binding accents. Built for players who demand reliability and tonal clarity without compromise on the stage or in the studio.
Playability & Feel
The 24.75" scale length and thin U neck profile reduce fatigue during extended sets while maintaining structural integrity for road use. A 350mm fingerboard radius with 22 extra-jumbo frets provides excellent intonation across the entire range and comfortable fretting geometry for both rhythm and lead work, keeping you locked in during live performances.
Tone & Electronics
Active EMG 81 bridge and EMG 85 neck pickups deliver punchy, articulate output with minimal noise, cutting through the mix in high-gain situations and staying clean on lighter settings. The TOM-style bridge with tailpiece and fixed design ensure stable tuning throughout your set and direct tonal transmission, while dual volume and master tone controls offer intuitive shaping on the fly.
