Why Choose the ESP LTD M-10?

Aggressive M-Series Design: The LTD M-10 features the hard-edge appearance of the ESP M-Series, with an angular double-cutaway basswood body that's perfect for rock and metal. The reverse headstock not only adds to the aggressive aesthetic but also provides better response on the low E, A, and D strings.

Powerful ESP Designed LH-100 Humbucking Pickups: Equipped with two ESP Designed LH-100 humbucking pickups—an LH-100N in the neck and an LH-100B in the bridge—this guitar delivers a wide range of tones. The ceramic pickups are medium output, allowing you to play any musical style from blues and pop to rock and metal.

Fast, Comfortable Thin U Neck: The smooth maple neck with a Thin U contour is hand-friendly and makes it easy to build up your abilities. The 24 extra-jumbo frets and 13.78" radius provide a familiar, comfortable feel that's ideal for both rhythm and lead playing.

String-Through-Body Design for Enhanced Sustain: The strings attach through the back of the body and are intonated with a Tune-O-Matic style bridge, promoting extra resonance and sustain. LTD tuners keep you locked in tune.

Lightweight and Balanced: The basswood body is lightweight and well-balanced, making it comfortable to play for long practice sessions. One player noted it weighs only 5.8 lbs with a strap.

Gig Bag Included: The included padded gig bag makes it easy to transport your guitar to lessons, practices, or jams with friends. You're ready to hit the ground running from day one.
