Product information - ESP LTD Snakebyte Black Satin James Hetfield Signature

Signature Electric Guitar with EMG JH "Het" Set Pickups and TonePros Hardware

Metallica mastermind and chief riff blacksmith James Hetfield has been using ESP guitars since 1988 and has been looking back on a number of successful signature instruments since then. The ESP LTD Snakebyte Black Satin is an interpretation of the EX design designed by James Hetfield that catches the eye with its own lines on every stage. Thanks to the combination of mahogany construction and active EMG pickups, this signature electric guitar delivers the typical Hetfield sound.

ESP LTD Snakebyte Black Satin
The ESP LTD Snakebyte was designed by James Hetfield and delivers the typical Metallica sound.

Mahogany for the full punch

With its mahogany body and glued mahogany neck, which carries an ebony fingerboard, the ESP LTD Snakebyte Black Satin delivers a fat basic sound with a crisp punch, which is the perfect basis for tight riffs. The neck has a comfortable "Thin U" profile and the fretboard has a flat 13.8" radius for these loosers to get out of your fingers.

EMG JH "Het" Set

The ESP LTD Snakebyte Black Satin uses the active pickups of the EMG JH Het Set, which was developed together with James Hetfield and combines the clear sound of active pickups with the open dynamics of passive pickups. Thanks to precise attack and present mids, the Steghumbucker delivers crisp riffs with high assertiveness even with the heaviest distortion, while the neck pickup with its warm sound offers the perfect basis for singing solos and sparkling chords.

High-quality hardware

The equipment of the ESP LTD Snakebyte Snow White James Hetfield Signature is rounded off by high-quality hardware. The strings on the body are guided from the TonePros Locking Stopbar over the TonePros T3BT bridge, which can be locked on its retaining pin and thus contributes to the perfect sound development of the ESP LTD Snakebyte. LTD locking mechanisms at the head plate ensure high tuning stability and easy string changes.
