ESP LTD Bill Kelliher Sparrowhawk Electric Guitar - Black

The LTD Bill Kelliher Sparrowhawk from ESP comes generously equipped and primed for performance. Co-designed by Mastodon co-axeman Bill Kelliher himself, this offset-body axe slings gracefully over the shoulder and sits comfortably on the lap. Its maple-capped mahogany body delivers a taste of that timeless '50s/'60s-era dual humbucker guitar tone. Meanwhile, its thin "U" mahogany neck with ebony fingerboard offers stellar playability and response. Tonally, a pair of Seymour Duncan Distortion humbuckers with push-pull coil splits and custom gold covers allow Bill's signature Sparrowhawk to cover loads of ground in a stage or studio environment. A Tonepros Locking Tune-o-matic bridge and a set of matching gold LTD locking tuners ensure singing sustain and rock-solid tuning. In short, the LTD Bill Kelliher Sparrowhawk is built for sound, and its unique offset design is built for hours of comfortable play onstage.
