ESP LTD MSV-1 Electric Guitar
Designed in collaboration with Darkest Hour guitarist Mike Schleibaum, the ESP LTD MSV-1 pairs an aggressive Arrow body profile with premium performance appointments. Built with neck-thru-body construction at a 24.75-inch scale, this instrument features a resonant mahogany body topped with a maple cap, finished in a striking gloss black with gleaming gold hardware.
The fast three-piece mahogany neck is shaped to an ultra-playable Thin U contour and paired with a smooth Macassar ebony fingerboard. Equipped with 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets and pearloid block inlays, the fingerboard offers effortless playability, enhanced durability, and reliable pitch accuracy across all registers.
For unyielding metal tone and expressive performance, the MSV-1 is outfitted with an active EMG JH James Hetfield signature humbucker in brushed gold, wired simply to a single top hat volume control. A gold Floyd Rose 1000 double-locking tremolo system and Grover tuners ensure rock-solid tuning stability, while the included ESP form-fit hardshell case offers comprehensive protection.
