Description
Sound & Tone
The pair of ESP LH-150 humbuckers gives this M-200DX a thick, focused output with the tight low end and cutting bridge attack that suit hard rock, metal, and high-gain lead work, while the TOM bridge with string-thru body adds sustain and note clarity under distortion. Pulling the push-pull tone control splits the pickups to single-coil voicings, thinning things out for cleaner rhythm parts, funk-adjacent chord work, and brighter arpeggios without changing amps. The poplar body with poplar burl top, roasted maple neck, and 25.5" scale keep the response snappy and articulate, and the 24 XJ frets with a flatter 350mm radius favor fast runs and bends high on the neck.
ESP LTD M-200DX Electric Guitar Blue Burst
The M-200DX sits balanced and responsive in your hands with its thin U-contoured neck and 25.5" scale length, delivering comfort through long sets and fluid enough for quick, demanding passages. The Blue Burst finish paired with full body binding and reverse inline headstock delivers visual presence without sacrificing a thing in playability or hardware reliability. This is a dependable instrument built to handle the rigors of regular gigging at a price that respects the player's investment.
Playability & Feel
The roasted maple neck with rosewood fingerboard and thin U contour feel fast and stable under the fingers, with roasted maple's natural resistance to humidity changes keeping the neck true through varying venues and climates. A 43mm molded nut width and 350mm fingerboard radius accommodate both explosive lead runs and open chord voicings, while the 24 XJ frets let you work the upper register without cramping hand position down low.
Tone & Electronics
Two ESP LH-150 humbucking pickups with black chrome covers cut through live mixes with classic humbucker definition, and a push-pull switch on the tone knob unlocks single-coil voicing for tonal flexibility across multiple song requirements. The TOM bridge with string-thru design locks in solid sustain and holds intonation tight across a set, while the straightforward volume/tone/3-way switch layout keeps operations intuitive under stage pressure.

Frequently Asked Questions
What pickups does the M-200DX use, and can I change the tone?
The guitar features two ESP LH-150 humbucking pickups with black chrome covers. A push-pull switch on the tone knob lets you voice single-coil tones, giving you classic humbucker clarity plus single-coil character without adding extra controls or complexity.
Is this guitar suitable for beginners?
Yes. The thin U-contoured neck, 43mm nut width, and 350mm fingerboard radius support both lead work and chord playing comfortably. The 24 XJ frets offer plenty of upper-fret access, and the straightforward electronics make it easy to learn.
What genres does the M-200DX work best for?
The M-200DX is designed for rock, blues, indie, and home recording. Its warm midrange and balanced humbucker output suit these styles; it is not optimized for metal or djent playing.
What materials is the neck made from, and how stable is it?
The neck is roasted maple with a rosewood fingerboard and thin U contour. Roasted maple has minimal moisture sensitivity and excellent stability, so it resists changes in humidity and temperature better than standard maple.
Does the M-200DX stay in tune well?
The TOM bridge with string-thru design ensures solid sustain and reliable intonation. The guitar also features black chrome hardware and LTD tuners, which contribute to stable tuning and durable performance in live and studio settings.
