Description
ESP LTD KH-602 Kirk Hammett Electric Guitar – Black B-Stock
The KH-602 combines a fast, razor-thin neck contour with a neck-thru-body construction that delivers exceptional sustain and seamless access to upper frets. Kirk Hammett's signature design translates a professional-grade instrument into an affordable platform for metal players and shredders who demand speed, aggression, and tuning stability. This B-stock example is unplayed and fully set up—a smart acquisition for serious players.
Playability & Feel
The extra-thin U-shaped neck combined with a 3-piece maple construction and macassar ebony fingerboard creates a responsive, fast platform for technical riffing and solos. A 350mm fingerboard radius and 24 extra-jumbo frets reduce finger fatigue during bending and tapping, while the locking nut and 42mm nut width keep tuning rock-solid through aggressive playing.
Tone & Electronics
Dual EMG Bone Breaker active pickups deliver high-output clarity and crushing distortion without noise—ideal for tight, aggressive tones in high-gain contexts. The Floyd Rose 1000 bridge provides smooth tremolo action and exceptional tuning stability for dive bombs and expressive whammy work, while the straightforward volume/volume/tone/3-way switch layout keeps tonal control intuitive during performance.
