Baritones require a bold approach — one that is immediately apparent in ESP's LTD M-201B baritone electric guitar. Armed with a single ESP LH-150B bridge pickup and a potent mahogany body, this axe is packed with power. Also onboard are a fixed LTD bridge, a molded nut, a smooth-playing 3-piece maple neck, and high-performance LTD tuning machines to ensure utmost performance and comfort in the face of any stage or studio playing situation. To boot, the LTD M-201B boasts a gorgeous gloss-finished body, cementing this axe as a serious work of art both in the hands of any discerning guitarist or in your 6-string collection.

Credibly built by ESP experts

Experienced luthiers at ESP selected mahogany as the LTD M-201B's tonewood of choice — a preferred pick given the guitar's status as a baritone instrument. More than other contemporary tonewood choices, mahogany amplifies the natural sound of your instrument while adding in much-needed richness and sustain, amounting to an electric guitar that fares well not only when plugged in but also played privately at home or in the studio. Finalized with a gorgeous gloss finish around the entire body, the LTD M-201B is extremely comfortable and handles well in the hands of any discerning guitarist or emerging musician.

A bastion of navigation

There's nothing like a maneuverable guitar, especially when your projects demand manipulation along the entire fretboard. Rest assured that the LTD M-201B baritone's 3-piece maple neck with a Thin-U profile is seamless to navigate, complete with a supple rosewood fretboard with offset dot inlays for increased accuracy during play. Down below, the guitar's LTD fixed tailpiece converges with a unique molded nut to ensure top-tier tonal authenticity and a smooth playing experience. It's all topped off with an exclusive collection of black hardware and LTD tuning machines to guarantee your intonation is always within acceptable ranges onstage or in the studio.

Power-packed ESP pickup

The ESP LH-150B is a highly configurable — and independently potent — pickup. As a result, our guitarists were not surprised to find just how well it shines onboard the LTD M-201B baritone electric guitar. With ample coverage and a Volume knob with push-pull control, you'll be surfing tones from dropped-down rhythms to high-potency leads and riffs in no time flat. Topped off with a traditional humbucking design to cut back on external noise interference, the ESP LH-150B is a pickup you'll be more than glad to have onboard your new axe.
