Description

The ESP James Hetfield Snakebyte captures the essence of a metal icon and distils it down into his signature guitar series. Two EMG active pickups have a sleek stealthy finish that belies the enormous tonal power they wield. Designed in collaboration with James Hetfield these pickups are a concentrated metal tempest full of attack and output to really drive home that filthy rock crunch. A slick angular black Snakebyte body captures Hetfields aggressive style. Perfectly completing that hard core appearance. Looks arent everything though so the solid mahogany construction of the body is packed with resonance and deep tonal qualities to release your distortion rumble. This is a top spec guitar that channels the spirit of Metallica like no other with every element showing Hetfields musical finesse.

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

Guitar

Explore electric, acoustic and bass guitars across a wide range of playing styles, body shapes and specifications. The most useful differences include scale length, construction, pickup type, neck profile, materials and whether the instrument is intended for amplified, acoustic or hybrid use. Use the narrower guitar categories and feature tags to compare instruments with similar designs rather than relying on appearance alone.
