Description
ESP LTD HEX-200 Nergal Electric Guitar – Black Satin
The HEX-200 Nergal combines a symmetrical V-shaped mahogany body with a fast, responsive thin U-profile neck built for precision and aggressive playing on stage. The roasted jatoba fretboard and 24 extra-jumbo frets create an ideal platform for rapid lead work and intricate fingering patterns, while the satin finish offers a refined, non-slip playing surface across all positions. This is a purpose-built instrument for gigging musicians who require responsiveness, clarity, and sustain in equal measure.
Playability & Feel
The thin U neck contour and 350mm fingerboard radius deliver fast action suited to lead-intensive playing, while the 25.5" scale and 42mm nut width maintain classic proportions for comfort and control during extended sets. Mahogany construction ensures each note resonates with definition and sustain, with the bolt-on neck joint providing direct coupling between body and neck for articulate response that cuts through live mix.
Tone & Stage Performance
The ESP LH-301N neck and LH-301B bridge passive pickups deliver thick, articulate tone with clarity in the midrange and satisfying low-end punch that projects in a full band mix. A push-pull volume control enables pickup splitting for single-coil tones, expanding tonal range from heavy drop-tuned riffs to darker alternative textures—all accessible without reaching for extra gear.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean, and does it affect playability or tone?
B-Stock means the unit is fully functional with minor cosmetic imperfections from overstock or display inventory. These marks are purely superficial and have zero impact on playability, tone, or structural integrity. You receive complete manufacturer warranty coverage.
Is this guitar suitable for metal and drop-tuning?
Yes. The 25.5" scale, mahogany body, thick articulate pickups with satisfying low-end punch, and bolt-on neck construction are purpose-built for metal and hard rock. The push-pull volume control also expands tonal range for darker alternative textures.
What's the neck like, and who is it built for?
The thin U-profile three-piece maple neck with 350mm (13.78") radius and 24 extra-jumbo frets delivers fast action ideal for rapid lead work and intricate fingering patterns. It demands precision and rewards aggressive playing, making it best suited for intermediate to advanced and professional players.
Can I get single-coil tones from this guitar?
Yes. The push-pull volume control enables pickup splitting, letting you access single-coil tones alongside the full humbucker response of the ESP LH-301N (neck) and LH-301B (bridge) pickups.
How does the roasted jatoba fretboard help during play?
Roasted jatoba is more stable and durable than standard rosewood, resisting moisture changes that can cause fret issues. Combined with the satin finish across the body and neck, it provides a refined, non-slip playing surface across all positions.
