ESP LTD Truckster £1129

James Hetfield's signature model from ESP's more affordable range LTD, complete with dual EMGs but without much of a finish...

ESP LTD Truckster

The finish is true to Hetfield's own guitar

    I tried out this guitar a couple of years ago on a visit to London's Denmark Street, it really is quite something! Obviously miles ahead of the "LTD" edition, chugging away at some of the classic 80's Metallica riffs is what this guitar was built to do, the sound is what you'd hope it to be, it plays well & definatly looks the part. Infact, it does everything you'd expect it to, but as big a fan of Mr. Hetfield as I am, a lottery win sadly is really the only way I would ever own this beast.
    However if you have the cash & are looking for a decent metal/hard rock guitar & most importantly are a fan of Metallica then I highly recommend the Truckster
