ESP LTD EC-201FT Lefty Guitar See Thru Black Cherry

ESP LTD EC-201FT Lefty Guitar – See Thru Black Cherry

The ESP LTD EC-201FT lefty captures the warm, sustain-rich character of mahogany construction in a recording-ready package. Set-through body design locks the neck into the body for extended resonance and note decay—critical for layering in mix-heavy sessions. The thin U-shape neck profile enables fast, repeatable takes across chord voicings and single-note passages. Solid mahogany throughout yields woody midrange presence that cuts through dense arrangements without requiring heavy EQ intervention. The See Thru Black Cherry finish reveals authentic wood grain, while solid hardware and purposeful pickup design maintain session-to-session consistency across multiple recording takes.

Playability & Consistency

The thin U-shape neck contour paired with a 24.75" scale and 350mm fingerboard radius supports both standard voicings and extended range tracking. A 3-piece mahogany neck with roasted jatoba fingerboard resists humidity shifts during long studio days, preserving intonation across overdub sessions. 22 extra-jumbo frets with black binding and pearloid block inlays enable clean articulation and precise bends that translate clearly to recorded audio.

Tone & Electronics for Recording

The single ESP LH-150B humbucking pickup in the bridge position delivers thick, woody output with strong sustain characteristic of mahogany construction. The master volume control with push/pull coil-split functionality expands session palette from full humbucker warmth to single-coil clarity, reducing the need for multiple guitars during tracking and allowing tonal variation within a single song arrangement.
