Darkest Hour's brand of hard-hitting melodic death metal demands equally hard-hitting weapons. The ESP LTD Mike Schleibaum MSV-1 — their guitarist's signature axe — is primed for heavy combat.
This solid body electric guitar features a resonant, maple-topped mahogany body carved into ESP's aggressive Arrow shape, along with a 3-piece Thin 'U'-shaped mahogany neck with a smooth-playing Macassar ebony fingerboard. A brushed-chrome-covered EMG JH active humbucker serves up a bone-crushing distorted utopia, while the guitar's neck-through construction ensures long-lasting sustain and top-shelf articulation. The LTD MSV-1 boasts block fingerboard inlays and a pointed reverse headstock for a classic, stage-ready look. High-quality Grover tuners and a Floyd Rose 1000 tremolo complete the package. Strap the LTD MSV-1 on your shoulder, and you'll be ready to hit the stage with heavy artillery — unleashed and unafraid.
Includes an ESP hardshell case.
