Electric guitar LTD KH-602 Kirk Hammett Signature

The LTD KH-602 Kirk Hammett Signature electric guitar is the signature model of the legendary Metallica lead guitarist, created for musicians who strive for an aggressive, tight and maximally controlled sound. Kirk Hammett has been shaping the recognizable sound of one of the most successful metal bands in history for decades, and it was the collaboration with ESP/LTD that allowed him to embody his requirements for the instrument in a high-class serial model.

The through-body design provides powerful sustain, instant attack and sound stability throughout the entire scale length. This approach is especially important for fast solos, complex riffs and playing in high positions. The alder body provides a balanced tone with a pronounced midrange that fits perfectly into the dense mix of modern metal.

The three-piece maple neck with an Extra Thin U profile is designed for maximum comfort and speed of play. The 350mm radius of the pao ferro fingerboard ensures precise bends and stable intonation even with extreme techniques. The signature skull and bone inlay emphasizes the aggressive nature of the model and its belonging to the Kirk Hammett signature series.

The original Floyd Rose 1000 Series tremolo system guarantees reliable tuning even with active use of the lever. The active EMG Bone Breaker pickups provide a powerful output signal, complete absence of noise and a characteristic dense tone, which is ideal for high-gain sounds, thrash metal and heavy rock.
