The ESP LTD James Hetfield Iron Cross (Snow White) is a signature-model electric guitar built to the specs of Metallica's rhythm guitarist. It uses set-neck construction with a mahogany body topped with a maple cap and a three-piece mahogany neck. The ebony fingerboard carries 22 extra-jumbo frets and an Iron Cross inlay at the 12th fret. Hardware includes a TonePros locking TOM bridge and tailpiece, and the finish is Snow White with the black stripe graphic and iron cross fixture as pictured. This listing is for a 2022 LTD Iron Cross in excellent condition and comes with the original hardshell case (OHSC).
Electronics are James Hetfield’s EMG JH active pickup set, providing high-output, tight-sounding rhythm tone suited for heavy palm-muted chugs and articulate power chords. Neck profile and exact nut width aren’t specified in the listing, but the instrument’s spec set—set-neck mahogany/maple cap, 3-piece neck, ebony board, 22 extra-jumbo frets, TonePros locking TOM and EMG JH set—identifies it as a performance-focused rhythm guitar. Included: OHSC; condition: excellent.
