Review: Great guitar a step beyond a beginnner - Was having trouble finding this guitar in stock, but it was the one my teenage son wanted. It came packed extremely well, and made his 16th birthday memorable. It sounds great, looks great, and is better quality than his starter guitar. No info was included about the locking nut. While it is simple in what it does, having some info on it included with the guitar would have been very welcome. Seems like something the maker of the guitar should include, it would have saved me some internet searching. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Review: Easy to.modify, and upgrade to custom shop playability. - This guitar comes with a steel claw and screws,and a zinc trem block. I upgraded both to brass and added size 10 screws to fill the diameter holes in my upgraded brass claw,and got some stiffer red quiet springs and a trem blocker, to block the bridge solid for d tuna . The guitar sounds amazing and I upgraded bridge hardware to stainless and a brass block for the tremolo. I got earny ball slinky set and a bondhaus 3 mm t handle Allen wrench for working on the bridge and nut, makes torque more evenly distributed. And speeds up a string change to minutes of progress rather than dropping that short Allen wrench a few times while trying to succeed on a floyd. With the trem stabilizer installed hvy springs and e flat tune is max for this shred machine before the bridge rocks up.but it zeros out with dives or pullups instantly vs float , alot more pressure to whammy, but its smooth and howls perfect with no spring noise , very smooth and controllable lowering or pulling up a few pitches. And goes back solidly in to tune. ## Features - Solidbody Electric Guitar with Basswood Body - Floyd Rose Tremolo - Black - Rosewood Fingerboard - 2 Humbucking Pickups - Maple Neck ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0002GYH2E | | Back Material Type | Basswood | | Best Sellers Rank | #61,655 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #420 in Solid Body Electric Guitars | | Body Material | Basswood | | Body Material Type | Basswood | | Brand | ESP GUITARS | | Brand Name | ESP GUITARS | | Color | Black | | Connector Type | 1/4" (6.35mm) audio jack | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 128 Reviews | | Fretboard Material Type | Rosewood | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00840248009829 | | Guitar Bridge System | Floyd Rose | | Guitar Pickup Configuration | H-H | | Hand Orientation | Right | | Included Components | Not Included | | Instrument | Guitar | | Instrument Size | KH-202 | | Item Dimensions | 19 x 6 x 48 inches | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 19"L x 6"W x 48"H | | Item Type Name | ESP LTD KH202 Kirk Hammett Electric Guitar, Black | | Item Weight | 4.6 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | ESP Guitars | | Manufacturer Part Number | 312567 | | Material Type | Basswood (Body), Maple (Neck) | | Model Name | {FEEDTITLE} | | Model Number | LKH202BLK | | Neck Material Type | Maple | | Number of Strings | 6 | | Scale Length | 25.5 | | String Material Type | Alloy Steel | | Top Material Type | Basswood | | UPC | 840248009829 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | Lifetime limited. | ## Product Details - **Back Material Type:** Basswood - **Body Material:** Basswood - **Brand:** ESP GUITARS - **Color:** Black - **Fretboard Material Type:** Rosewood - **Guitar Pickup Configuration:** H-S - **Hand Orientation:** Right - **Neck Material Type:** Maple - **String Material Type:** Alloy Steel - **Top Material Type:** Basswood ## Images ![ESP LTD Kirk Hammett KH-202 - Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51jXzcC9boL.jpg) ![ESP LTD Kirk Hammett KH-202 - Black - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/611-YIfYUTL.jpg) ![ESP LTD Kirk Hammett KH-202 - Black - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51dRKySkGXL.jpg) ![ESP LTD Kirk Hammett KH-202 - Black - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/511yTVe5pLL.jpg) ![ESP LTD Kirk Hammett KH-202 - Black - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51xjzpRvFeL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: I am from ksa. how many weeks well this item arrive in my address??** A: I think it's better to Email the seller. But why do you want to order from so far? Much easier to find local or close by supplier in case you have to do returns. **Q: received my kh202 the other day and noticed the Kh202 logo isnt on the fret board inlay between the 23 and 24 frets is this a different version ?** A: The one on the picture with KH-202 logo on the fretboard, is the old version of the guitar which had a Rosewood fretboard. Since 2017, these LTDs have fretboards made of Roasted Jatoba, which will not include the logo you noticed missing. **Q: Are the frets nickle?** A: Not 100 Percent sûre I think Stainless Steel , Or A Nickel & Stainless Alloy . They Will last A Lifetime . Hope this helps **Q: I noticed these models of the kh202 are made in China, while others are made in korea or japan. Should a beginner be concerned about this?** A: Its a great guitar i have had no issues with it it came ready to play the only concern a beginner needs to have is how to restring a floyd rose but thats what youtube is for ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great guitar a step beyond a beginnner *by M***A on March 8, 2025* Was having trouble finding this guitar in stock, but it was the one my teenage son wanted.

Of course first off I have never had a guitar with a Floyd Rose bridge before and after getting it went to put new strings on it. Had to do some looking into the whole Floyd Rose Bridge first and then after doing a couple strings I started to get the hang of it. After replacing the strings and then playing around with getting everything correct and in tune it had held tuning pretty well and sounds really great. Though not to thrilled with the Floyd Rose locking nuts on the neck since I tend to rub against them when using 1 and 2nd fret but I just need to adjust my playing to it. ## Frequently Bought Together - ESP LTD KH-202 Signature Series Kirk Hammett Electric Guitar, Black - Amazon Basics Adjustable Folding Guitar Stand, A-shape, Fully Assembled - For School Music Program, Concerts & Multiple Users, Black - Fender Professional Series Instrument Cable, Guitar Cable 10 ft, Guitar Accessories, Stage Ready with Anti-Kinking Design, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/11868043-esp-ltd-kirk-hammett-kh-202-black](https://www.desertcart.in/products/11868043-esp-ltd-kirk-hammett-kh-202-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-05-10*
