ESP LTD EC-256 Electric Guitar Black Satin B-Stock

ESP LTD EC-256 Electric Guitar Black Satin B-Stock

The EC-256 delivers a comfortable, fast-playing experience with its thin U-contour neck and 24.75" scale that sits naturally in hand. This mahogany construction balances resonance with sustain, making it equally suited to rock, metal, and blues players seeking an instrument that responds to nuanced technique. B-stock condition means this guitar may have minor cosmetic imperfections but performs identically to new retail units.

Playability & Feel

The roasted jatoba fingerboard combined with 22 extra-jumbo frets and a thin U neck profile create an exceptionally fast, low-friction playing surface ideal for lead work and extended sessions. A 42mm molded nut and 350mm radius provide comfortable spacing and natural finger ergonomics across all positions.

Tone & Electronics

Dual ESP Designed LH-150 pickups—neck and bridge configurations—deliver classic mahogany warmth with articulate highs through a passive electronics layout. The volume/volume/tone with push/pull control and toggle switch configuration grants flexible tonal shaping without unnecessary complexity, while the TOM bridge and tailpiece hardware ensures stable tuning and sustained resonance.
