ESP LTD Phoenix Arctic Metal, Snow White Satin

Full Description

Innovation at your fingertips

One pickup. Astounding possibilities. The EMG 81TW humbucker may look simple in design but holds more wonders than you might think. Not only will you have the original EMG 81 at your control, but you will also have another single-coil pickup enclosed in the same housing. So, essentially there are two pickups in one humbucker. The EMG 81 produces a searing, crisp high range and shimmering sustain with the use of ceramic magnets and close aperture coils. This kind of intense sharpness balanced with wondrous fluidity will ensure every note blazes through even the thickest of mixes. Experience the 81's renowned crunch and attack as well as the glorious tone of a single-coil pickup whilst still reaping the benefits of noise-cancelling technology. The push/pull design of the volume control makes it superbly easy to go from humbucker to single-coil without causing any disruption to your seamless sound.

A striking mahogany body

Don't hold back. The mahogany construction of this guitar's body can handle anything thanks to its superbly sturdy build and incredible durability. It also provides a rich, resonant, and balanced tone that lends itself to wondrous textures and sparkling harmonies. Such warm sonic capabilities make for a beautifully immersive undercurrent. Lose yourself in your killer tone, it will be so breath-taking your audience won't be able to turn away. And to add to mahogany's list of astounding attributes, it also guarantees excellence for years to come. Mahogany's tone becomes tighter and more focused as the wood matures, meaning you can look forward to ever-growing sound that welcomes colourful overtones with glistening clarity.

If exceptional strength isn't enough, the neck-through construction promises to enhance your tone even more by providing glorious sustain. Every single note you play will be projected out into the room with immense force and is guaranteed to ring out with razor-sharp clarity. And when you're equipped with premium hardware such as a Tonepros locking Tune-o-matic bridge, you can be sure to have long-lasting quality on your side.

A sublime neck and fretboard

The magnificent neck extends a wondrous mahogany construction whilst exhibiting a thin 'U' contour. This sleek design is superbly comfortable to hold and ensures you can play with ease. On top lies an exquisite ebony fretboard. It is the sign of a high-end instrument with divine quality and grants you a sumptuously smooth playing experience. Go wild on the 22 extra-jumbo frets and slide across the board at lightning speed, ebony's high oil-content allows you to play in silky and seamless style whilst your fiery notes fly from the strings like sparks. It is absent of inlays to maintain a striking aesthetic, allowing the glow-in-the-dark side markers to add electrifying details.
