The Axe that Reinvented Metal!
When James Hetfield and ESP came together to create a signature model, they changed the face of metal forever. With an ESP LTD Snakebyte you get to experience the look, sound, and feel of Hetfield's own amazing guitar for yourself. The first thing you'll notice is how balanced the LTD Snakebyte's body feels, making it easy to go from low-end riffage to high-flying solos. Plug it in, and the whole game changes. Thanks to the active EMG humbucker (Hetfield's own custom JH "Het" set), you'll get everything from the tight chugging rhythms to the screaming leads you'd expect from the metal axe that started it all. If you want to sound like a metal legend, this ESP LTD Snakebyte is the perfect place to start.
