This is a well loved and well used Snakebyte in the original Black Gloss that was discontinued quickly in favor of the current black satin model. The guitar came to us in a sorry state but has had a bevvy of fixes and upgrades to get it back to working order and ready to rule the stage once again. I'm a big metallica fan, but I've never gotten on with ESP/LTD guitars and unfortunately this didn't change my mind, so I'd love to get it to a new home

Details
- Original LTD tuners were upgraded to hipshot locking tuners
- Original strap locks were stripped and damaged, upgraded to dunlop strap lock buttons. Locks are not included, but these strap buttons work with regular straps as well as dunlop locks
- Entire guitar was professionally cleaned by a luthier
- This guitar was professionally set up for E standard with 10-46 strings by a luthier
- The pickup rings and screws were replaced after the originals were rusted and damaged
- The original bridge and tailpiece were replaced with a TonePros bridge after the originals were rusted over
- Original switch tip was lost and replaced. Switch, electronics, and pickups are original
- Body has many dings, scratches, and some broken edges where the wood is exposed, especially on pointy sections of the guitar. All damages are cosmetic and do not affect playability and stability of the guitar. All major damages are photographed and highlight with flash photography, but not all scratches may be easily visible. The non flash photos largely represent how the guitar looks without close inspection in person.
