ESP LTD KH-602 Kirk Hammett Black

What we say:

At A Glance:

The ESP LTD KH-602 Kirk Hammett Black has all the makings of a solid reliable guitar that can handle more than just Metallica's heaviest riffs. Featuring a slim 3 piece maple neck thru design, alder body wings, and pau ferro fretboard with 24 jumbo frets this guitar is a solid foundation of reliability and tone. This is only amplified when you include the Floyd Rose 1000 series tremolo and EMG Bone Breaker pickups.

Features We Love:

EMG Bone Breaker pickups

The set of Kirk Hammett signature Bone Breaker pickups are as tight and brutal as you'd expect, able to handle the fast low end riffs and searing leads Kirk is known for. Make no mistake though, these pickups have been designed to be versatile and you'll find they can easily supply you with gorgeous clean tones.

Floyd Rose 1000

The Floyd Rose 1000 is an exceptional unit. With a recessed body cavity, you can experience incredible pitch bending ability all while maintaining tuning stability.

Extra Thin U Neck

The KH-602's extra thin U neck profile is very comfortable and ideal for shredding. Somewhat of a classic feature to ESP guitars, it will satisfy both the guitarist new to the brand or someone who is well accustomed to the sleek neck shape.

Highlights:

• Awesome skull 'n' crossbones inlays
• EMG Signature Bone Breaker pickups
• Neck thru construction
