The ESP LTD Vulture is not just a guitar; it's a testament to the enduring influence of James Hetfield, the iconic frontman of Metallica. This signature guitar pays homage to his legendary status in the world of metal music. Crafted with precision and care, the Vulture boasts a distinctive V-shaped mahogany body adorned with hooks and bevels reminiscent of Metallica's iconic logo.
Constructed with a set-neck design at a comfortable 24.75" scale, the LTD Vulture showcases a three-piece mahogany neck and a luxurious Macassar ebony fingerboard. With 22 extra-jumbo frets and unassuming dot inlays, it exudes simplicity and elegance. A custom vulture inlay at the 12th fret adds a touch of personalisation to this exceptional instrument.
What truly sets the LTD Vulture apart is its heart - the James Hetfield signature EMG JH Het Set active pickups. Designed to capture the clarity and punch of passive pickups while retaining the signature active tone that shaped a generation, these pickups redefine your sonic experience. The JH-N (neck) pickup boasts individual ceramic poles and bobbins with a larger core, delivering enhanced attack, higher output, and a fuller low end in the neck position. Meanwhile, the JH-B (bridge) pickup employs a similar core with steel pole pieces, providing the familiar tight attack with cleaner low-end response compared to traditional EMG 81 pickups.
Practicality meets performance with discrete volume knobs for each pickup, LTD locking tuners for stable tuning, and a TonePros bridge and tailpiece for impeccable sustain and intonation. To top it off, this exceptional guitar comes complete with an ESP deluxe hardshell case, ensuring its protection and safekeeping for years to come.
