DISC ESP LTD EC-256P Electric Guitar, Pearl White

Full Description

ESP's EC series guitars are one of the more popular ESP/LTD series, chosen by many big names in the heavy music world. Used by the likes of Will Adler (Lamb of God) , Mark Heylmun(Suicide Silence), Jeff Kendrick (DevilDriver) and the legendary James Hetfield of Metallica (Signature Truckster Model). The EC series ESP/LTD guitars offer a neat combination of traditional styling and contemporary electric guitar technology.

ESP guitars are renowned for the quality of their construction and it's a well earned distinction, as this quality is present in all their guitars and basses, from their top end signature models through to the more affordable LTD models. ESP and LTD Guitars and Basses feature high quality hardware and design features that are indicative of a company that has spent over 35 years designing some of music's most brutal, hard wearing and road worthy instruments.

Press Reviews

"The soapbar pickups in this guitar do just that, pushing your amp to a raw, raucous sound that punks should lap up. Turn the gain down and you get a clean tone that's smooth like dark chocolate mousse, all rich and silky.

......This is a lot of guitar for your money (shop around and you'll find it for a bargain £349). It's certainly heavy - that's the price you pay for solid all-mahogany construction - but LTD has added a contour at the back of the body to make it more comfortable against your ribcage (or beer belly) and another one behind the cutaway to aid upper fret access.

It also has a slightly thinner neck heel than a LP or a Strat, so it's easier to wrap your hand around it where the neck joins the body. The difference is millimetres, but the result is a guitar that you can chuck around and throw some shapes with."
