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 Hetfield's aggressive style.
Perfectly completing that hard core appearance. Looks aren't 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 Hetfield's musical finesse.
