For players ready to command the stage and “Ride the Lightning,” the ESP LTD Snakebyte delivers bold design and tone in a premium build tailored to Metallica frontman James Hetfield’s specifications. This Signature Series model reflects Hetfield’s own custom body shape and is built for high-performance rhythm and lead playing. With set-neck construction and a 24.75" scale length, the Snakebyte features a solid mahogany body, three-piece mahogany neck, and a Macassar ebony fingerboard with 22 extra-jumbo frets and a striking snake inlay at the 12th fret. Equipped with Hetfield’s signature EMG JH SET active pickups, this guitar delivers crushing clarity and tight low-end response. The TonePro locking TOM bridge and tailpiece enhance tuning stability and sustain. Finished in a bold Snow White and complete with a form-fit hardshell case, this radical heavy metal shred machine is available now at Haggerty’s Music.
