ESP LTD F-200B Charcoal Metallic electric baritone guitar

General

It's often overlooked, but there is an instrument in between a guitar and a bass guitar: the baritone guitar. These extra low-pitched guitars are often quite expensive, but ESP LTD provides an affordable alternative with the F-200B. With its extreme design and Charcoal Metallic finish, it's the perfect instrument for guitarists who like it low. And low is no problem for this guitar: with its extra long 27-inch scale length, you can use it for a high baritone tuning (C-F-Bb-Eb-G-C) and even an extra-heavy low C tuning.

Enrich your sound

Of course, handling a sound that low is no walk in the park. That's why the F-200B features two passive humbuckers, that offer a clear and powerful sound, especially when you turn up the gain. With a volume knob, tone knob and 3-way pickup switch, you can easily fine-tune your sound to suit your personal preference. What's more, thanks to the fixed bridge with six individually adjustable saddles, your strings will stay in tune perfectly, even when you drop down to that open C.

Sharp edges

If there's one guitar out there that lives and breathes metal, it has to be this ESP LTD model. We've already mentioned the shape of its body, as the design is creative to say the least. While it started out as a classic design, it took just a bit of shaving and sanding to end up with this tough-looking body. With its long 27" scale length, it provides a comfortable balance. Its bolted-on neck has a rosewood fingerboard and 24 extra jumbo frets, which helps make playing the thicker strings easier and more comfortable. Finally, to give you enough freedom to play, the neck has a thin U profile so that you can reach every position with ease. In short, this is a guitar with a look and feel that suit its metal roots.
