The LTD EC-257 (seven-string) and EC-258 (eight-string) guitars are affordable for just about any musician, and allow you to explore the depths of lower pitches for today’s modern sounds. These guitars feature excellent ESP Designed pickups, comfortable mahogany bodies, three-piece mahogany necks, and roasted jatoba fingerboards with 22 extra-jumbo frets. the EC-257 offers a TOM bridge and tailpiece, while the EC-258 features a hardtail design. Both are available in Black Satin finish. Review: Excellent 7 string for the price - Flawless finish. Well dressed neck and frets. Excellent bridge. Great low action, easily adjustable. Required only minor intonation twerking out of the box. Pickups sound wayyyy better than expected for being generic LTD. I was going to replace them, however I don't find the need. Cool tap feature is pretty cool at this price point. The neck and frets really impress. Beautiful, rich color on the fretboard, no sharp or goofy high frets. If I had to complain about anything, it would only be that the machine heads could be better. They are quite tight at first, but when they loosen a bit, they feel a little sloppy and imprecise. That being said, the guitar actually stays in tune really well. All in all, I don't see a lot of difference between this guitar and the more expensive, 1000 series. I own several ESP/LTD instruments and once in a great while, I'll get a turd... It's very rare, and this guitar is great. Review: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thick, Powerful Tone — Perfect for Metal - Absolutely love this guitar. I own Gibsons and Fenders, and honestly, this ESP LTD is quickly becoming one of my favorites — especially when it comes to playing metal. The tone is thick, punchy, and aggressive, just what you want for lower tunings and heavy riffs. The 7-string setup holds tuning great, and the neck feels super comfortable — fast, but still solid. The matte black finish looks killer on stage and in the studio. I was blown away by how well it holds up next to higher-end guitars in my collection. If you're into metal and want a guitar that delivers both tone and playability without breaking the bank, this one’s a beast. Highly recommended. ## Features - 7-string Electric Guitar with Mahogany Body - 2 Humbucking Pickups - Black Satin - Roasted Jatoba Fingerboard - Mahogany Neck ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07BB1CKMV | | Back Material Type | Mahogany Wood | | Best Sellers Rank | #110,447 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #863 in Solid Body Electric Guitars | | Body Material | Mahogany | | Body Material Type | Mahogany | | Brand | ESP GUITARS | | Brand Name | ESP GUITARS | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 53 Reviews | | Fretboard Material Type | Jatoba Wood | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00799493261585 | | Guitar Bridge System | Tune-O-Matic | | Guitar Pickup Configuration | H | | Hand Orientation | Right | | Item Dimensions | 42 x 5 x 18 inches | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 42"L x 5"W x 18"H | | Item Type Name | Solid-Body Electric Guitar | | Item Weight | 10 Pounds | | Manufacturer | ESP Guitars | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Model Number | LEC257BLKS | | Neck Material Type | Mahogany | | Number of Strings | 7 | | Scale Length | 26.5 Inches | | String Material Type | Alloy Steel | | Top Material Type | Mahogany Wood | | UPC | 799493261585 | | Warranty Description | Limited lifetime warranty. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** ESP GUITARS - **Color:** Satin Black - **Top Material Type:** Mahogany Wood - **Body Material:** Mahogany - **Back Material Type:** Mahogany Wood - **Neck Material Type:** Mahogany - **Fretboard Material Type:** Jatoba Wood - **Guitar Pickup Configuration:** H - **String Material Type:** Alloy Steel - **Hand Orientation:** Right ## Images ![ESP LTD EC-257 - Black Satin - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Y+hFZsl8L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: How would this be for playing metal?
