ESP LTD KH-602 Black Kirk Hammett Signature with Case

General

Metallica fan or not, you'll quickly realise that this Kirk Hammett Signature is worth its weight in gold. The body of this premium model is made of alder for full, well-balanced resonance and a solid foundation sound while the extra-slim neck runs deep down the body for a neck-thru-body construction that gives the LTD KH-602 noticeably better sustain and more direct tone. As a signature guitar befits, ESP also include a matching hard case.

The KH-602: Bone-Breaking Power

As any seasoned guitarist has probably already noticed, the LTD KG-602 BLK is mounted with a pair of active Bonebreaker signature humbuckers from the reputable EMG. By combining the ceramic and Alnico 5 core magnets of the pickups with a number of careful tweaks to the preamp, the KH-BBs are able to dish out smooth-honeyed rhythms as well as razor-sharp solos. And let's not forget the Floyd Rose 1000 tremolo bridge, which not only excels at keeping the tuning stable but can be used for mind-broadening tone bends.
