Features We Love:

ESP Japan Quality

When it comes to quality you can't do much better than ESP Japan. Taking extreme pride in their craft the luthiers at ESP produce some of the best guitars around. Japanese built guitars are known for their meticulous quality and ESP are consistently at the front of the pack when it comes to outstanding guitars. You can rest easy when you're on stage with this craftsmanship behind you.

Rock Solid Hardware

The EMG pickups are expected in a James Hetfield signature but every other piece of hardware is equally as premium. Sperzel locking tuners and a locking TonePros bridge keep your tuning rock solid at all times and make string changes a total breeze. Add in the bone nut and ESP strap locks and you're all set to downpick your way through the heaviest riffs all night long.

EMG JH Set

Like with ESP, Hetfield's been a long-time EMG player. Anywhere you see a Metallica in concert, there's gonna be the iconic black pickups there too. Known for his tight, down-picked rhythm playing the JH 'Het' set combines the characteristics of passive clarity, but with the active qualities that Metallica is known for. In short, the cleans will be sparkling, and the distorted tones punishing!

Who Is It For?

If you're looking for a high quality rock and metal guitar this will cater to those styles with ease and look great doing it. Fans of Metallica or James Hetfield will also find much to love here, whether you're adding to your collection of guitars, or wanting something built to play their back catalogue!

Highlights:

• Premium hardware throughout
• EMG Hetfield set
• Ticks all of the boxes if you're a Metallica or James Hetfield fan!
