Overview

Unleash sonic brutality with this signature metal machine.

The ESP LTD Mick Thomson MT-I electric guitar is a force to be reckoned with, designed for players who demand the ultimate in heavy tone, aggressive style and uncompromising performance. This signature model, crafted in collaboration with Slipknot guitarist Mick Thomson, features a menacing single-cutaway design, a powerful Fishman Fluence pickup, and premium components that are built to withstand the most brutal playing styles.

Mahogany Body With Ash Top for a Balanced and Powerful Tone

The MT-I features a mahogany body with a white ash top, a combination of tonewoods that delivers a balanced and powerful sound with exceptional clarity and definition. The mahogany body provides a warm, resonant foundation with a focused low end, while the ash top adds a touch of brightness and snap to the attack. This combination creates a versatile tonal platform that's equally suited for crushing riffs, searing leads, and articulate clean tones.

Fishman Fluence Mick Thomson Signature Pickup for Aggressive Versatility

This signature electric guitar is equipped with a Fishman Fluence Mick Thomson Signature pickup, meticulously voiced to capture the aggressive and dynamic sound of Mick Thomson's playing. This pickup delivers a powerful and articulate tone with a tight low end, punchy mids and a clear, focused high end. The 3-way toggle switch allows you to access a variety of tonal options, while the push-pull volume control provides access to two distinct voicings within the pickup, expanding the guitar's sonic versatility even further. 

Roasted Maple Neck and Macassar Ebony Fingerboard for Effortless Playability

The MT-I features a three-piece roasted maple neck that's been treated to enhance its stability and resonance. The roasted maple neck provides a smooth and comfortable playing experience, allowing for effortless transitions across the fretboard. The Macassar ebony fingerboard is known for its durability and smooth feel, making it ideal for fast playing and aggressive techniques. The compound radius fretboard ensures comfortable chording in the lower registers and effortless bending in the higher registers, while the 24 medium-jumbo stainless steel frets provide exceptional durability and a smooth playing surface.

Premium Hardware and a Striking Finish

The ESP LTD Mick Thomson MT-I is adorned with premium hardware that enhances its performance and aesthetics. The Hipshot Grip-Lock locking open gear tuners ensure rock-solid tuning stability, while the Hipshot Hi-Mass hardtail bridge provides exceptional sustain and intonation. The blue Luminlay side markers offer excellent visibility on dark stages, adding a touch of visual flair to the guitar's menacing design. The guitar's Obsidian Metallic finish is a striking visual statement that's sure to turn heads. With its combination of exceptional tone, versatile electronics, and comfortable playability, the MT-I is a true performer's instrument.
