About this listing
ESP LTD James Hetfield Vulture Guitar Olympic White
The James Hetfield Vulture delivers the aggressive playability and tonal clarity demanded by metal's most demanding players. Its set-neck mahogany construction and thin U neck contour create a responsive instrument that balances sustain with speed, while the 24.75" scale and 22 extra-jumbo frets enable fast, confident playing across the entire fingerboard.
Playability & Feel
The thin U contour neck paired with a 350mm fingerboard radius and 42mm molded nut creates familiar ergonomics for rapid position shifts and open voicings. The set-neck construction ensures rock-solid sustain and stability, while LTD locking tuners and a TonePros locking TOM bridge with tailpiece keep tuning rock-solid under aggressive playing.
Tone & Electronics
The signature EMG Het Set pickups—featuring ceramic poles in the neck position for attack and fuller low end, and steel pole pieces in the bridge for tight attack and cleaner definition—deliver the high-output clarity and punch essential to modern metal. Independent volume controls for each pickup and a toggle switch provide versatile tonal shaping without compromise.
