The ESP LTD EXL-200 is a bold, angular rock machine that delivers classic set-neck feel, punchy humbucker tones and rock-solid tuning stability in a sleek, all-black package. With its comfortable Thin U neck, 24.75 inch scale and powerful LH-301 pickups, it is built to handle everything from tight rhythm work to searing leads, making it a superb choice for players stepping into the world of aggressive, stage-ready guitars.
A mahogany body and set-neck construction give the EXL-200 a thick, sustaining voice that responds beautifully to high-gain amps and pedals. The 3-piece maple neck and rosewood fingerboard add snap and clarity, while the TOM and tailpiece bridge keeps your tuning locked in through heavy riffing and big bends. Finished in black with matching hardware and distinctive EX styling, it looks as uncompromising as it sounds.
Playability is front and centre thanks to the Thin U neck profile, 350 mm fingerboard radius and 22 extra-jumbo frets, making fast runs, wide vibrato and precise bends feel effortless. The push/pull tone control unlocks coil-split style versatility from the passive humbuckers, giving you everything from thick, saturated crunch to brighter, more articulate sounds at the pull of a knob.
Whether you are hitting your first gigs or upgrading from a beginner instrument, the LTD EXL-200 gives you the feel, tone and attitude associated with ESP’s more premium models in a streamlined, accessible form. It is a no-nonsense, performance-focused guitar that invites you to turn up, dig in and riff for hours.
Powerful Passive Humbuckers
The EXL-200 is loaded with ESP Designed LH-301 humbuckers in the neck and bridge positions. Voiced for rock and metal, they deliver tight low end, punchy mids and enough output to drive your amp into rich, saturated distortion, while still retaining clarity for complex chords and fast picking.
Comfortable Thin U Neck
A 3-piece maple neck with ESP’s Thin U profile offers a fast, modern feel that suits technical playing as well as big, open chords. Combined with the 350 mm radius rosewood fingerboard and 22 extra-jumbo frets, it encourages clean, accurate playing across the entire neck.
Set-Neck Mahogany Construction
The mahogany body and set-neck joint provide excellent sustain and a warm, full-bodied tonal character. Notes ring out longer and feel more connected, which is ideal for singing lead lines, heavy riffing and tight, palm-muted rhythms.
Push/Pull Tonal Flexibility
The simple control layout of volume, tone and toggle switch is enhanced by a push/pull function on the tone knob, giving you additional tonal options from the LH-301 pickups. This added versatility lets you move from thick, high-gain sounds to brighter, more cutting tones without changing your setup.
