Description
ESP LTD M-Black Metal Electric Guitar Black Satin B-Stock
The ESP LTD M-Black cuts through with a razor-thin neck profile and aggressive styling engineered for metal players who demand precision and speed. This neck-thru construction locks in with responsive feel and a fast, comfortable playing surface built for technical accuracy. The B-stock designation means factory cosmetic imperfections—this is a fully functional instrument with no structural or tonal compromise.
Playability & Feel
The extra thin U neck contour paired with a 43mm nut width and 350mm fingerboard radius creates a moderately flat playing surface that accelerates fast lead work and bending technique. Twenty-four XJ frets on a Macassar ebony fingerboard deliver excellent fret access and long-term durability, while the 25.5" scale length maintains bright articulation and stable intonation across the entire fretboard for reliable gigging and studio work.
Tone & Electronics
A Seymour Duncan Blackened Black Winter bridge pickup cuts through the mix with aggressive, articulate high-gain response and natural compression—the go-to voicing for contemporary metal stages. Passive electronics with single volume control eliminate noise and keep your signal chain transparent, while the Floyd Rose 1000 bridge locks tuning tight and enables dive-bomb expression for dynamic performance.
