The ESP LTD James Hetfield Signature Snakebyte in Snow White is a powerful high-performance electric guitar designed in collaboration with Metallica frontman James Hetfield. Combining aggressive styling, premium construction, and crushing tone, the Snakebyte is built for heavy riffs, fast playing, and commanding stage presence.
Featuring a mahogany body and set-thru neck construction, the Snakebyte delivers exceptional sustain, resonance, and stability for both studio recording and live performance. The thin U-shaped mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard provide smooth, fast playability ideal for metal, hard rock, and high-energy performance styles.
Equipped with James Hetfield’s signature EMG JH active pickups, this guitar produces tight low-end response, articulate mids, and powerful high-output tone with excellent clarity under high gain settings. Locking tuners and a TonePros locking TOM bridge ensure reliable tuning stability and precision during aggressive playing.
