Sound & Tone
The set-neck mahogany body with maple cap and 24.75-inch scale gives this left-handed Iron Cross a thick, warm foundation with strong midrange push, while the ebony fingerboard and TonePros locking bridge tighten up the attack and add sustain. The EMG JH active pickup set brings high output and low noise with articulate, punchy mids that stay defined under heavy gain, moving from clear rhythm chugging to dense low-end growl. It's aimed squarely at metal and hard rock rhythm playing, with a Thin U neck and 22 extra-jumbo frets on a 13.7-inch radius that support fast downpicked riffing and lead work.
ESP LTD Iron Cross James Hetfield Left Hand Guitar Snow White
This left-handed Iron Cross delivers a buttery-smooth neck that facilitates fast riffing and intricate lead work with effortless precision. The aggressive and responsive character comes from a thoughtfully engineered design that combines comfort with raw power, making it a serious instrument for players demanding both playability and tonal authority. The striking Snow White finish signals a road-ready guitar built to inspire confidence in any performance setting.
Playability & Feel
The three-piece mahogany neck with ebony fingerboard and Thin U neck contour sits naturally in your left hand, responsive under your fingers across fast passages and chord work alike. A 13.7-inch radius fingerboard with 22 extra-jumbo frets and 24.75-inch scale length accommodates both precision work and aggressive playing, while the 42mm molded nut width provides proper string spacing for left-handed ergonomics.
Tone & Electronics
The EMG JH SET active pickups deliver thick, articulate tones with exceptional sustain and punchy mid-range attack that cuts through live mix, while the TonePros locking TOM bridge and tailpiece ensure rock-solid intonation and resonance night after night on stage. Active electronics with Vol/Vol/Tone/Toggle Switch layout give you immediate control over your tone character, from crushing clarity to thunderous low-end growl.
