Frequently asked questions
Which case fits my left-handed Snakebyte?
The ESP Snakebyte LH case is engineered exclusively for left-handed ESP James Hetfield Snakebyte and LTD Snakebyte models. The ST-TE XL is designed for extended-scale instruments and will not fit standard Snakebyte guitars.
Can the ST-TE XL fit a regular 6-string guitar?
The ST-TE XL's extra long design is optimized for baritone and 7-string guitars. While it may technically fit a standard 6-string, the form-fit design and plush interior are engineered for extended-scale instruments, so you would have excess internal space.
What's the difference in hardware between the two cases?
The Snakebyte LH features four metal latches and an ergonomic grip handle for secure, confident closure. The ST-TE XL uses a standard lock mechanism with a molded heavy-duty handle suited for heavier baritone and 7-string guitars.
Are both cases wood construction?
Yes, both cases feature all-wood construction with Tolex covering for durability. The Snakebyte LH includes white detail stitching accents, while the ST-TE XL includes binding along its exterior.
