ESP LTD MH-417BFM 7-string baritone guitar
Product no: 9000-0015-8739 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty, the strings come with a manufacturing defects warranty.

General

The ESP LTD MH-417BFM is modelled after the MH-417, yet is notably different in several important aspects. This electric guitar has a baritone size, meaning its strings are considerably longer - a very attractive feature for metal guitarists, as it ensures the strings don't become slack in extremely low tuning. In addition to its 27-inch scale length, the MH-417 features a remarkable Flamed Maple top with a gorgeous grain pattern that shines beautifully through the transparent black sunburst lacquer for an overall luxurious look.

MH-417BFM: mahogany, neck-thru-body and EMG

When designing this excellent-sounding instrument, LTD chose mahogany to be its predominant wood type. Mahogany is a lightweight type of wood that ensures a powerful, deep resonance that can be perfectly discerned in any mix. Additionally, the MH-417BFM features a neck-through-body construction for improved sustain and virtually no heel, leaving lots of room for your left hand to reach even the highest frets. The amplified sound has an immensely tight and clear character thanks to the EMG 81-7 and EMG 707, pickups that have made quite a name as seven-string experts.

ESP's LTD guitars

LTD is a subdivision of the renowned ESP brand. Many hard rock and heavy metal guitar players, ranging from amateur to professional to rock legend, own an ESP guitar. ESP offers several series, including a large number of signature models made in collaboration with famous artists. LTD guitars are perfect if a professional instrument is out of your reach just yet. They offer durable quality, a beautiful shape, a tasteful finish and excellent sound at a reasonable price.
