The ESP LTD M-HT Arctic Metal SWS is an uncompromisingly reduced to performance electric guitar for guitarists who are not looking for distraction, but maximum control, precision and assertiveness. With its Snow White Satin finish, a single active EMG 81TW humbucker with coil split and kill switch, and a high-precision hardtail construction, it offers everything modern metal and rock guitars need—and nothing they don't need.
Part of the renowned ESP Arctic Metal Series, this guitar combines minimalist design with uncompromising hardware and electronics. The result: an expressive, fast and absolutely reliable instrument for stage, studio or rehearsal room.
Reduced design – maximum control
The M-HT Arctic Metal relies on a solid body construction made of alder, which provides balanced, center-focused sound with a defined attack. The continuous maple neck maximizes sustain and vibration transmission, while the Extra Thin U profile allows fast, precise play across the entire fingerboard - ideal for modern technique and shred players.
The Macassar ebony fingerboard with 24 stainless steel X jumbo frets offers an extremely resistant playing surface with direct response and long service life - ideal for intensive touring and studio conditions. The fingerboard radius of 350 mm allows comfortable chording as well as fast solo playing without compromise.
EMG 81TW – Versatile power humbucker with coil split
The heart of the guitar is the EMG 81TW humbucker in the bridge position – an active pickup with integrated coil split function. The push/pull volume control allows the humbucker to be switched to a single-coil-like mode - perfect for clean passages or brilliant crunch sounds. The EMG 81TW delivers powerful high-gain tone with clear mids, rich bass and singing treble - without any disturbing noise.
