Metallica's Kirk Hammett At Guitar

Description
The ESP LTD Kirk Hammett Signature White Zombie electric guitar is the signature model is a reproduction of his own White Zombie guitar and features graphics from the iconic horror film. Built for high-speed shredding, the KH-WZ features an alder body, maple neck and rosewood fretboard with 24 extra-jumbo frets. Power comes from active EMG Bone Breaker pickups and a Floyd Rose 1000 bridge allows radical dive bombs and squeals. Whether you're a hardcore Metallica fan or just seeking a high-performance instrument for unleashing sonic mayhem, check out the ESP LTD KH-WZ.
EMG Bone Breaker Pickups Provide Aggressive Tone
The ESP LTD KH-WZ is armed with EMG Bone Breaker active pickups, a signature model developed with Kirk Hammett to produce his trademark tone. The ceramic magnets and hot output of these pickups deliver tight, high-output distortion perfect for playing Metallica's catalog or your own brand of metal. A three-way toggle lets you switch between the neck, bridge or both pickups together.
Floyd Rose Bridge Enables Dive Bombs Galore
The KH-WZ features a Floyd Rose 1000 double-locking tremolo bridge for radical dive bombs, squeals and tuning stability. The Floyd Rose bridge floats on knife-edge pivots and locks the strings at the bridge and nut. This allows for wild manipulation of pitch with the tremolo arm while keeping the guitar in tune. The bridge also features fine-tuners for precise adjustment of each string's pitch.
Fast-Playing Neck and Bat/Spider Inlays
The bolt-on maple neck has an ultrafast thin U profile that plays lightning quick. A rosewood fretboard has 24 extra-jumbo frets for a smooth feel and spider/bat position inlays as a nod to the White Zombie graphics. The neck also has black binding and LTD die-cast tuners for solid and stable tuning.
Custom Graphic Form-Fitted Case Included
The ESP LTD KH-WZ comes with a custom graphic form-fitted case from the Tombstone Case Company to protect your instrument in style. The case is shaped to fit the unique contours of the guitar and features graphics matching the theme of the White Zombie artwork.

This guitar is very well made and plays smooth as silk ! If you like any hard rock or metal genre, or even bluesy jams, this axe will do its job. Ive played 2 live gigs with it, and it has passed the test. If ya don't like emgs you will prolly wanna go with a warmer sounding set of pups.......Over all great player, strat feel and comes with a killer case, Cool collecters item also...shred on !

Feel a little decieved.
not willing to purchase this as a floor guitar as it deserves to be brand new when a customer pays for a sig. upon receiving mine, I could tell it was a floor guitar and the high E was broken after the nut. Case was good. But the guitar has light scratches on back and the string.

I love the sound of the guitar, you gotta realize that guitar comes with 9 42 strings so if you plan to change them to 10 46 you will have to calibrate the Floyd rose

Granted I haven't had this guitar long, but the next is so easy to move up and down. The curve is very nice for my hand size. Using the tremolo and I like some of the other tremolos I have played this stays in tune nicely. The pickups are hot without compromising tone. I love it!
Not a bad beginner guitar to a extent

Love this guitar. I'm a beginner just learning some chords. I really like the thin neck. I got Large to XLarge glove sized hands, if that helps explain where I'm coming from. I wouldn't even try to set it up yourself. Looks pretty cool and fun to mess around with
Year review with it.

This Guitar is fantastic. It is Balanced, has a Smooth Neck, has Stunning Visuals(The pictures on here don't do it justice), and has a Perfect Metal Tone even through a sub-par modeling amp. The Neck has a smooth but powerful blues metal tone and the Bridge HITS HARD. It did have an awful setup from the factory though (Really High Action and it took a while to balance the fret buzz) and the Floyd Rose is brutal but prob worth it in the long run. I have used, it every day, for the past year and a half an it's smooth an amazing. I have jammed with others and it really cuts through the mix. (Clean tone is alright but the distorted is the main point of this guitar in my opinion). Every time I Use it I slowly catch myself turning it up to a dangerous level. I have a Gibson Les Paul and a Fender Strat, and this thing metal-wise...blows the other 2 out of the water. Love this guitar. 4.5 outta 5 cause the clean tone is alright, but the metal tone is eye water level of beautiful.
