Description

Edit description

The ESP LTD HEX-6 Nergal Signature guitar is where uncompromising craftsmanship meets the fierce intensity of blackened death metal. Created in collaboration with Nergal, the visionary frontman of Behemoth, this solid body electric guitar is meticulously engineered for high-octane performance and versatility. The HEX-6 boasts a mahogany body that delivers robust mids and a harmonically rich sound, complemented by a 3-piece maple neck that adds brightness and clarity. The Macassar ebony fingerboard is devoid of markers, save for a distinctive 12th fret inlay, and offers 24 extra-jumbo frets for expansive playability.

At the heart of the HEX-6’s sonic prowess are the dual Fishman Fluence Modern Humbuckers, mounted directly to the body for maximum resonance. These pickups offer multiple voicing options, effortlessly toggled via a push-pull volume control, allowing you to switch between searing active tones and crisp passive sounds with ease. The HEX-6’s Thin U neck profile provides a comfortable and fast playing experience, while the locking tuners and TonePros TOM bridge ensure impeccable tuning stability and precise intonation for every performance.

Crafted for those who demand both aesthetic appeal and functional excellence, the ESP LTD HEX-6 Nergal Signature is not just an instrument; it's a statement.
