ESP LTD KH-V Kirk Hammett Signature, Black Sparkle

As the lead guitarist for Metallica, the biggest heavy metal band of all time, Kirk Hammett has inspired generations of musicians over the past 40+ years. Kirk's solos are a crucial part of Metallica's dominating sound, and he has relied on ESP for decades to make guitar that meet his every need. The ESP LTD KH-V Kirk Hammett Signature is a masterful instrument, offering a korina solidbody decorated in a Black Sparkle finish with matching black hardware and a black pickguard.

The KH-V offers a neck-thru-body construction, with an extra-thin U-shaped three-piece maple neck and a Macassar ebony fingerboard featuring pearloid wave inlays and twenty-four extra jumbo frets. The sound of the KH-V is powered by a set of Kirk's signature EMG Bone Breaker pickups, with the BB-B ceramic bridge and the BB-N alnico 5 neck pickups for crisp, crushing leads or smooth, rounded rhythm tones at the flip of a switch. Controls of the KH-V include volume, tone and a three-way switch, rounded-off by a TonePros bridge and LTD locking tuners.
