In its Black Satin finish, the ESP Snakebyte, James Hetfield's signature model, is truly elegant. Give in to the temptation of this high-end guitar.
An artist with international renown.
James Hetfield is the singer-guitarist and primary songwriter of Metallica, undoubtedly the greatest heavy metal band of all time. After three decades, ten studio albums, and countless world tours, Metallica has spread its unique form of thrash metal across the globe. Known for his powerful right hand and precise rhythmic execution, James wanted his guitars to be built according to his specifications for playability and durability.
Premium design from the ESP Custom Shop.
Handmade in the ESP Custom Shop, the ESP Snakebyte is one of the models in the James Hetfield signature collection. Based on the original design by the Metallica guitarist, the Snakebyte features a set-neck construction with a 24.75" scale length, a mahogany body, and a one-piece mahogany neck. The Snakebyte also comes with an ebony fingerboard, 22 extra-jumbo frets, and a snake inlay at the 12th fret.
High-quality components.
The ESP Snakebyte is equipped with two custom EMG JH SET active pickups designed by James Hetfield, premium components including a bone nut, Schaller strap locks, Sperzel tuners, and a TonePros Tune-o-Matic bridge. The Snakebyte is available in Snow White and Black Satin finishes. Importantly, the guitar also comes with a case so you can safely transport it during your travels.
