Specs: Set-Neck Construction 24.75″ Scale Mahogany Body Mahogany Neck Ebony Fingerboard 42mm Bone Nut Thin U Neck Contour 22 XJ Frets Black Hardware LTD Locking Tonepros Locking TOM Bridge & Tailpiece EMG JH SET Finish: SW (Snow White) Hetfield first appeared with a Snakebyte on stage in 2010. There is clearly something about this guitar, something more classic, but at the same time a unique ESP style can be traced. This is especially noticeable in the “limbs” of the guitar. For example, its front horn in the shape of an arrow, or the same back splinter, by the way, the mount now looks more convenient. The headstock has a completely new shape, looking at it involuntarily makes you think of transformers:) And finally, the inlaid pearl snake at the 12th fret of the neck (it also touches the 11th and 13th frets). There are also small bevels; the bass side is made similar to the Strat construction, while a small recess on the lower part of the neck improves access to the high frets. The neck has an ebony fingerboard, which gives the guitar even more sharpness and metalness, with 22 frets, Sperzel locking tuners are installed. The neck has a Thin U profile, as well as a bone nut with a width of 42mm. The scale is 24.75 inches or 629 mm. The ESP/LTD Snakebyte is equipped with a TonePros T3BT bridge with a TonePros T1Z tailpiece and a pair of active humbuckers: EMG 81 in the bridge and EMG 60 in the neck position. Naturally, the guitar has high-quality and beautiful hardware. The Snakebyte sounds a bit rougher and harder than one would expect from a guitar that has structural similarities to the one that gave life to “Enter Sandman”. The bridge pickup delivers a powerful and hard sound with a kind of roughness at the edges, which gives the sound even more aggression. Perhaps, thanks to its massive body, the Snakebyte guitar receives more energy and accordingly transfers it. Meanwhile, the neck humbucker is perfect for bluesy bends with good sustain, like “Nothing Else Matters”, however, one should not think that playing at high speeds is impossible. The Snakebyte will handle sweeping, shredding, and tapping without problems. And the cutaway mentioned above will allow reaching the 22nd fret without any problems. Without a doubt, the ESP/LTD Snakebyte can be called a real guitar for metal. It sounds as hard as it looks, it will suit both “shredders” and lovers of rhythm riffs. Oh yes, almost forgot, the Snakebyte is available in two color options – black and snow white. I have white in stock, and matte black is currently available only by order.
