The ESP LTD MH-400 Snow White is a sleek, modern metal machine built for fast, precise playing and crushing high-gain tones. With its set-thru construction, extra thin U neck profile, Floyd Rose Special tremolo and EMG 81/85 active pickups, it is designed to handle everything from technical riffing to screaming divebombs while looking razor sharp on stage in its striking Snow White finish with matching headstock.

Combining a mahogany body with a three-piece maple neck and rosewood fingerboard, the MH-400 delivers a tight, focused sound with plenty of sustain and punch. The 25.5 inch scale length and 24 extra-jumbo frets give you extended range and effortless bends, while the flat 350 mm fingerboard radius keeps fast runs and big chords comfortable and controlled.

Visually, the MH-400 stands out with bold black block inlays with a gold shadow, black hardware and that clean Snow White finish. It is a guitar that looks as aggressive as it sounds, perfect for players who want a professional-spec instrument that makes a statement under stage lights.

Whether you are tuning down for modern metal, playing tight rhythm parts or cutting through the mix with searing leads, the EMG-loaded MH-400 gives you the clarity, output and reliability you need. Add in Grover tuners and a locking nut for rock-solid tuning stability, and you have a serious workhorse for the studio and the stage.

EMG Active Pickups

The classic EMG 81 in the bridge and EMG 85 in the neck deliver high output, tight low end and cutting presence that excel with high-gain amps and pedals. From saturated rhythm tones to singing leads and smooth neck pickup cleans, these pickups stay articulate and noise-free, helping your playing cut through even the densest mixes.

Set-Thru Neck Construction

The set-thru design combines the sustain and upper fret access of a neck-thru with the punch of a set-neck. This gives you a strong, resonant connection between neck and body, enhancing sustain and note definition while making it easy to reach all 24 frets for solos and extended-range playing.

Floyd Rose Special Tremolo System

The Floyd Rose Special double-locking tremolo, paired with a locking nut, lets you perform extreme vibrato, divebombs and flutters without sacrificing tuning stability. Once locked in, your strings stay secure, so you can play aggressively and use the bar with confidence.

Fast Extra Thin U Neck

The three-piece maple neck with an extra thin U profile and 350 mm radius rosewood fingerboard is built for speed and precision. It sits comfortably in the hand, making fast alternate picking, legato runs and complex chord shapes feel natural, while the extra-jumbo frets make bending and vibrato easier and more controlled.

Key Features

  • EMG 81/85 Active Pickups – The EMG 81 bridge and EMG 85 neck pickups provide powerful, high-output tones with tight bass, clear mids and cutting highs, ideal for modern metal, hard rock and precise high-gain sounds.
  • Floyd Rose Special Tremolo with Locking Nut – A double-locking Floyd Rose Special bridge and locking nut combination keeps your tuning stable even under heavy tremolo use, letting you perform dramatic pitch effects without worrying about string slippage.
  • Extra Thin U Neck with 24 XJ Frets – The slim extra thin U neck profile, flat 350 mm radius and 24 extra-jumbo frets make for a fast, comfortable playing experience, perfect for technical riffs, wide stretches and expressive lead work.
  • Striking Snow White Aesthetic – The Snow White finish with matching headstock, black hardware and black block inlays with gold shadow gives the guitar a bold, modern look that stands out on stage and complements its aggressive sonic character.

More info about this Product

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.

Guitars

Guitars cover a wide range of instruments designed to suit different styles, techniques, and sounds, from acoustic and classical models to solid body, semi-hollow, and hollow electric designs. Factors like body shape, scale length, neck profile, string type, and pickups all influence how a guitar feels and responds, making each type suited to different players and musical approaches. Whether used for rhythm, lead, songwriting, or experimentation, guitars are expressive, versatile instruments that form the heart of countless genres and playing styles.

Solid Body Electric Guitars

Solid body electric guitars are built from a solid piece or pieces of wood, giving them excellent sustain, stability, and resistance to feedback at higher volumes. This construction makes them well suited to amplified playing across a wide range of styles, from clean and articulate tones to heavy, high-gain sounds. Their design allows pickups and hardware to play a major role in shaping tone, while the solid body provides a consistent, reliable feel. Solid body electric guitars are valued for their durability, versatility, and ability to perform confidently on stage and in the studio.
