General

ESP LTD's popular B-200 series bass guitars is sure to spark the interest of bass players on the lookout for a new challenge, as it includes this six-string ESP LTD B-206SM. The letters SM stand for 'spalted maple' and refer to the visible wood grain in its decorative maple top. The body itself is made of ash. The black grain of the maple wood top really comes through thanks to the See Thru Black Satin finish. It features a thin U neck profile made of 5-ply maple and rosewood.
