As part of LTD’s dark Black Metal series, this instrument strips away traditional cosmetic frills in favor of an imposing, stealthy aesthetic and pure performance efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe guitar is crafted using a seamless set-thru construction, joining a 3-piece maple neck to a solid mahogany body. Dressed in a dark Black Red Burst Satin finish, its sharp body contours offer incredible upper-fret access and rich, natural sustain. The Macassar ebony fingerboard features a 350mm (13.8\") radius, a 42mm molded nut, and 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets carved to ESP's fast Thin U neck profile across a classic 24.75\" scale length for effortless bending and smooth lead work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSonically, the EXL Black Metal is powered by a single direct-mounted active Seymour Duncan MortalCoil 3-Voice humbucker in the bridge position. This pickup offers three distinct voicings—ranging from high-output active punch to tight passive warmth and articulate split-coil textures. The streamlined electronics layout consists of a single master volume control paired with a dedicated mini-toggle switch for instant 3-voice selection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hardware package features all-black components built for maximum stability, including a TonePros locking Tune-O-Matic bridge and tailpiece for optimal string-to-body energy transfer and precise intonation. Backed up by LTD locking tuners and factory-strung with D'Addario XL110 (.010-.046) strings, this EXL stands ready for aggressive stage and studio performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition:\u003c\/b\u003e This is a brand new ESP LTD EXL Black Metal in Black Red Burst Satin.
