ESP LTD EC-200 BLKS electric guitar (black satin)

General

This guitar is a straightforward shredding machine by ESP LTD. Combining the familiar, high-quality ESP finish with the friendly LTD price tag, this is the perfect guitar for players who like a quality guitar without overspending. It is the perfect instrument for some on-stage, heavy playing abuse.

The dark side of the ESP LTD EC-200 BLKS

This guitar features a set-in neck, providing for longer sustain than a bolt-on neck would. The neck itself, just like the body, is made of mahogany, a very dense type of wood that excellently emphasises the lower frequencies, resulting in a sound that is nicely fat, yet tight. Thanks to the single-cut shape and bevelled edges, you can play far up the neck without twisting your hand into awkward positions.

A shredder's electronics

This budget-friendly guitar is - like all ESP guitars - equipped with first-class electronics. Its pickups, the LH-150N (neck) and the LH-150B (bridge), were designed by ESP itself. The neck pickup has a fuller sound and the bridge pickup packs a bit more punch, characteristics that are emphasised by their position on the body, allowing you to draw two entirely different sounds from a single guitar. The two volume controls allow you to blend the sounds of the pickups freely, and the tone knob lets you adjust the overall sound even further.
