ESP LTD Phoenix Black Metal Electric Guitar – Black Satin B-Stock

The LTD Phoenix Black Metal combines aggressive aesthetics with refined playability through its neck-through-body construction and thin U contour. This guitar delivers a balanced, comfortable feel across extended playing sessions while maintaining the dark, menacing visual identity of the Black Metal series. The B-stock designation indicates minor cosmetic imperfections with no impact on playability or tone.

Construction & Materials

Built with neck-through-body construction using a three-piece mahogany neck and mahogany body wings, this instrument achieves tonal sustain and structural integrity comparable to LTD Deluxe-grade builds. The Macassar ebony fretboard with 350mm radius and glow-in-the-dark side markers (no inlays) maintains the all-black aesthetic while supporting precise intonation across the 22 XJ frets.

Tone & Electronics

The single Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker pickup delivers versatile tonal range with a push-pull control on the master volume that switches between Modern Active and Modern Passive voicings in real-time. Paired with a TonePros locking TOM bridge and tailpiece plus LTD locking tuners, this setup ensures stable tuning and consistent output across varied playing dynamics.
