In via trade! This LTD KH-602 is the iconic Signature Model of legendary Metallica Guitarist Kirk Hammett. It’s finished in his signature purple sparkle, leaving no mystery to the intention of this metal machine. And don’t discount this model for being an LTD, it’s incredibly close to its ESP cousin at a fraction of the price. Featuring high-end options such as neck-through body construction and Kirk’s Signature EMG pickups, this will get you one step closer to achieving Mr. Hammett’s sonic barrage. And boy, this thing is in great shape! The previous owner took excellent care of this instrument.

From ESP: The LTD KH-602 is a Kirk Hammett Signature Series guitar that offers just about everything that its higher-end cousin, the ESP KH-2, does, at a price that more musicians can afford. Now available in both the original Black finish as well as an updated Purple Sparkle version based on Kirk’s personal ESP Custom instrument.

The KH-602 features neck-thru-body construction, with a comfortable alder body, a three-piece extra-thin U-shaped maple neck, macassar ebony fingerboard with 24 extra-jumbo frets and Kirk's skull-and-bones inlays, and components that include a Floyd Rose bridge and a set of EMG Kirk Hammett Bone Breaker Signature pickups. It's a powerful guitar designed for professional recording and live performance, perfect for any serious player of intense music.

How Does It Play?

The truss rod functions properly and the guitar sets up nicely. The string action sits at 4/64” on the low E string and just under 4/64” on the high E string, measured at 12^th fret.

Weight: 8lb 10.6oz
