ESP LTD MH-1000 BARITONE Left-Handed Electric Guitar (Black Satin)

Description

Its double-cut mahogany body and set-through maple neck unleash truckloads of resonance and sustain upon your amp of choice. From modern metal to classic rock, this guitar has you covered for a wide range of musical styles. The secret lies in a set of active EMG humbuckers, tailor-made for low-tuned chugs and molten leads, with push-pull options on the volume and tone controls for even greater sonic versatility. The LTD MH-1000 Baritone features a TonePros locking Tune-o-matic bridge/tailpiece and locking LTD tuners to give you precision intonation and stability. Factor in a compound-radius Macassar ebony fingerboard with 24 extra-jumbo frets and a 27-inch scale length for painless downtuning, and the LTD MH-1000 Baritone has all your bases covered for high-gain chuggas and scorching fingerboard acrobatics.

Scaled right and shaped for superior playability

The LTD MH-1000 Baritone boasts a 27-inch scale length, so you can tune down without messing up your string tension. The benefit of access to the lower register that down tuning provides can be offset by improper string tension; ESP made sure you won’t be robbed of the right feel. And the LTD MH-1000 Baritone offers additional comfort considerations. Its 3-piece, thin “U”-shaped maple neck makes for extra-ergonomic playing, and the double-cutaway body style gives you enhanced access to those upper frets for soloing ease.

EMG humbuckers deliver amp-pummeling aggression

When your goal is high-gain destruction, why settle for anything less than tried-and-true EMG humbuckers? The LTD MH-1000 Baritone sports an EMG 81 in the bridge along with a 60TW-R in the neck, fully equipping you with enough power to send your audiences into distorted oblivion. Capable of everything from thunderous growls to shimmering screams, the EMG 81 pickup uses beefy ceramic magnets and close aperture coils to deliver its trademark intensity with unparalleled detail. The EMG 60TW-R is the perfect complement to the 81, pumping out raw power and a thick, crunchy tone that is ideal for hard-rocking rhythms. Not to mention, this set of EMGs boasts an incredible high-end cut and a fluid sustain that slice cleanly through the densest of mixes.

TonePros bridge and LTD locking tuners

Players who are choosy about tuning, action, and intonation will delight in the LTD MH-1000 Baritone’s Tune-o-matic-style TonePros bridge/tailpiece and locking LTD tuners. The TonePros is a common aftermarket upgrade on many guitars, with six adjustable saddles providing precise intonation and enhanced sustain for chords and leads. At the other end, a set of LTD locking tuners provides slip-free performance for stage and studio tuning stability you can depend on.
