ESP LTD SN-1 Baritone HT Black Guitar — B-Stock

The SN-1 Baritone HT delivers thick, articulate tones across a 27" baritone scale tuned B-E-A-D-F#-B, with the thin U neck contour and compact body design making extended playing sessions comfortable during palm-muted riffs and intricate lead work alike. The scalloped frets from the 17th position onward enhance both precision and tonal articulation, while the reverse headstock and hardtail bridge provide visual distinctiveness and rock-solid tuning stability. This baritone bridges specialized low-end clarity with surprising sonic versatility—from bone-crushing distortion to warm, woody cleans—making it equally at home in metal, hardcore, and progressive contexts.

Playability & Build

Bolt-on construction pairs a 5-piece roasted maple and purple heart neck with a swamp ash body, delivering resonant fundamentals and inherent sustain. The thin U contour, 300-400mm compound fingerboard radius, 42mm black bone nut, and 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets (scalloped from fret 17–24 with mother-of-pearl dot inlays) create a fast, ergonomic platform that rewards both precision and tonal articulation across the extended 27" baritone scale.

Tone & Electronics

The Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker active bridge pickup delivers authoritative output with sonic flexibility via a push-pull volume control that activates a second voice for tonal variety. A Hipshot hardtail bridge with string-thru body design, LTD locking tuners, and chrome hardware ensure rock-solid intonation and sustain, while the black bone nut anchors harmonic definition essential for articulate baritone clarity.
