ESP LTD Alex Skolnick AS-1 FM Lemon Burst Signature Electric Guitar

The AS-1 FM delivers refined playability through its comfortable body contours and smooth neck profile, making it equally capable for fast neoclassical passages and melodic jazz fusion lines. The striking lemon burst finish pairs with a tonally versatile platform that produces articulate highs and responsive mids, cutting through both high-gain metal contexts and cleaner jazz settings. This signature model rewards technique-focused players and those seeking professional-grade tone and ergonomic comfort in extended playing sessions.

Playability & Feel

The set-neck construction with a 3-piece mahogany neck and U-contour profile creates natural hand comfort and sustained resonance. A 24.75" scale with 22 XJ frets, 305mm fingerboard radius, and 43mm bone nut provide precision across fast runs and chord work, while Grover tuners maintain tuning stability through extended sessions.

Tone & Electronics

The Seymour Duncan '59 neck pickup and Seymour Duncan JB bridge pickup combination delivers clarity and articulation across genres, supported by a passive electronics layout featuring volume/volume/tone controls with push/pull function and a toggle switch. The Tonepros locking TOM bridge and tailpiece ensures rock-solid tuning retention and resonant sustain through demanding playing styles.
