Description
ESP LTD SN-201 HT BLACK Guitar
The SN-201 HT is built for players who want a fast, responsive neck without the bulk. Its thin U-profile neck and 24 extra-jumbo frets across a 25.5" scale make for quick position shifts on stage, while the aggressive single-pickup design cuts through live mixes with no wasted features—just solid, reliable gear that gets the job done night after night.
Playability & Feel
The three-piece maple neck with rosewood fingerboard and thin U contour sits comfortably in your hand during long sets, while 24 extra-jumbo frets on a 350mm fingerboard radius make bends feel natural and keep intonation tight across the neck. A 42mm molded nut and LTD tuners lock in tuning stability—critical for gigging musicians who need their instrument to stay put through a full performance, whether you're playing standard tuning or dropping down.
Tone & Electronics
The direct-mount ESP LH-150B humbucker with antique nickel cover packs enough output to cut through a live room with clarity and aggression, while the push-pull volume knob enables coil splitting to dial in tighter, more articulate single-coil colors when you need them. The fixed hardtail bridge with string-thru-body construction locks the strings down tight for maximum sustain and punch, anchoring the solid mahogany body so you get consistent, powerful response across the full spectrum—exactly what you need in a stage-ready instrument.

The fixed hardtail bridge with string-thru-body design anchors strings directly through the mahogany body, maximizing sustain, resonance, and consistent punch across all frequencies.
What skill level is this guitar designed for?
