Electric guitar LTD VULTURE (Olympic White)

The LTD VULTURE (Olympic White) electric guitar is the signature model of James Hetfield, the legendary vocalist, rhythm guitarist, and lead songwriter of Metallica, the band that defined the face of heavy metal. The instrument was designed in close collaboration with the musician and embodies his vision of the perfect V-shaped guitar for a powerful, aggressive, yet controlled sound on stage and in the studio.

The body of selected mahogany creates a rich, deep tone with tight lows and softly smooth highs. This tonal foundation provides a singing, “velvety” sound that is perfect for heavy riffs, long-sustaining solos, and tight rhythm parts in the Metallica style.

The three-piece set-in mahogany neck significantly improves resonance and vibration transfer, adding stability and long sustain to the instrument. The Thin U profile combined with the Macassar Ebony fingerboard and 350 mm radius provides a comfortable, fast playing experience even during intense performances.

The powerful and recognizable sound is provided by the proprietary set of active EMG JH SET pickups with a built-in preamp. They guarantee a high output signal level without background and perfect readability at any overload level. The TonePros bridge system together with LTD locking pegs increases sustain, tuning stability and makes string changes quick and convenient.
