Product Ref: 56590
Over the past 30 years ESP Guitars have become one of the leading electric guitar and bass manufactures across the globe, specialising in metal and rock instruments. With artist such as James Hetfield, Kirk Hammett, Alexi Laiho, Richie Sambora, Tom Araya and many more ESP Guitars ensure every one of their guitars is a high performance and professional musical instrument.
Featuring a 27 inch scale length rather than the traditional 24.75, 25 and 25.5 inch scale lengths the MH-417B provides baritone capabilities. Due to the longer scale length the MH-417B FM optimizes playability and provides advanced tuning stability with a range of low tunings proving particularly favourable with heavy metal players requiring a low and deep tone.
The ESP LTD MH-417B has a neck-thru construction which provides advanced sustain and resonance by optimizing the maximum contact between the neck and body joint to allow superior vibration transfer and sustainability perfect for when you need notes to ring out for as long as possible.
Featuring high output active EMG 81-7 and 707 humbucking pickups the ESP LTD MH-401B delivers a sharp attack and a beefy rhythm tones when in the 81-7 bridge position and a warm and bright tonality when in the 707 neck position. Eliminating the muddy and muffled low B sound of prior 7 string guitar pickups the 81-7 and 707 produce a deep and defined low B response whilst also providing tight, crisp and detailed overall response allowing them to be versatile enough for a huge range of playing styles. EMG pickups are a first choice for many professional musicians due to their incredible tone, reliable active circuitry, high output and low noise.
