LTD - EC2025-MGO 50TH Anniversary Metallic Gold + Etui

While the Metallic Gold is the first to catch the eye, it’s its black finishes and elegant binding that really set the tone for refinement. The mahogany through-body neck, paired with a maple top, gives the whole thing a robustness worthy of the greatest classics of the genre. Its three-piece neck runs through its mahogany body with implacable fluidity, while the Macassar ebony fingerboard adds a precise attack and impeccable articulation. As for the Macassar ebony fingerboard, it doesn’t just feel good under the fingers, it features a superb “50” inlay, a subtle reminder that time passes, but some guitars remain.

This beauty doesn’t just look good: its duo of Seymour Duncan pickups is designed to respond to all attacks, from muscular riffs to melodic flights. The bridge pickup, exclusive to ESP, reveals an incisive and powerful character, while the neck model brings a slightly vintage smoothness. And if you feel like exploring new sounds, a push-pull allows you to switch to single-coil mode, to explore unsuspected nuances, between aggressive punch and vintage warmth.

Everything is under control!
With its locking tuners, its TonePros bridge and tailpiece, stability is guaranteed. Each string holds its position firmly, ready to react to the slightest nuance of playing without ever giving in to the whims of climatic variations or the overly fiery impulses of an overexcited guitarist. Enough to stay on course, whatever the turbulence.
