ESP LTD ARROW-401 electric guitar

General

Quite some time ago, ESP made their own variation of the famously asymmetrical V-shaped electric guitar, and named it the Arrow. The ESP LTD ARROW-401, however, is the first Arrow model with the letters LTD on its headstock. As such, this marvellously stylish axe is within the reach of guitarists who want a reliable, excellent-sounding instrument at an affordable price. Its especially attractive features include a Floyd Rose for deep dive bombs without tuning issues.

ARROW-401: a metal monster

The LTD ARROW-401 is a thoroughbred metal guitar that is about more than just wicked looks. Its beautiful body is home to two active humbuckers and a genuine Floyd Rose tremolo bridge. The active humbuckers ensure a sound as tight as tights (the EMG 85 has an even sound, while the EMG 81 sounds warmer), backed up by a sustain-enhancing set-through neck. Set-through means that the neck runs down through the body, allowing for a flat heel that is great for reaching even the highest frets with ease.

ESP's LTD guitars

LTD is a subdivision of the renowned ESP brand. Many hard rock and heavy metal guitar players, ranging from amateur to professional to rock legend, own an ESP guitar. ESP offers several series, including a large number of signature models made in collaboration with famous artists. LTD guitars are perfect if a professional instrument is out of your reach just yet. They offer durable quality, a beautiful shape, a tasteful finish and excellent sound at a reasonable price.
