Product Description
As the frontman of one of the world's most popular bands and a rhythm guitarist whose influence goes far beyond any other player in the metal realm, James Hetfield has had a massive impact on the world of guitar performance. The Vulture is the most recent of his ESP and LTD Signature Series models.
This striking electric guitar offers a distinctive V-shaped Mahogany body with hooks and bevels that are reminiscent of the famed Metallica logo. Built with a set-neck construction at a 24.75" scale, the LTD Vulture features a 3-piece Mahogany neck and a Macassar Ebony fingerboard with 22 extra-jumbo frets, dot inlays, and a custom vulture inlay at the 12th fret.
The ESP LTD Vulture also comes equipped with a set of James's signature EMG "Het Set" active pickups, designed to capture the clarity and punch of a passive pickup and still retain the legendary active tone that molded a generation. Other pro features of the include discrete volume knobs for each pickup, LTD locking tuners and a TonePros bridge/tailpiece. Includes ESP deluxe hardshell case.
Key Features
- 3-Piece Mahogany Neck — Layered neck construction improves strength for exceptional tuning stability.
- Thin "U" Neck Profile — Slim, supportive shape is suited for contemporary players who want to play fast!
- Macassar Ebony Fingerboard — Dark and silky material, fitted with 22 extra jumbo frets for stellar playability.
- EMG "Het Set" Pickups — The JH-N (neck) has individual ceramic poles and bobbins that feature a large core for more attack, higher output, and fuller low-end. The JH-B (bridge) uses the same type of core but has steel pole pieces, producing the familiar tight attack of the famous EMG 81 pickup but with less inductance for a cleaner bass response.
- Locking Tuners — Guarantee superior tuning stability and make string changes fast and simple!
