Product Description
Created to celebrate two decades of ESP and Alexi Laiho working together, the ESP LTD Alexi Laiho Signature Sawtooth SE 20th Anniversary is a razor sharp V-style shred machine built for uncompromising metal performance. With its neck-thru construction, Floyd Rose tremolo and fast Thin U neck profile, it is designed to deliver searing leads, precise riffing and rock solid tuning stability on stage or in the studio.
The alder body and 3 piece maple neck provide a tight, focused response that keeps even the most extreme gain settings articulate and controlled. A single EMG HZ FH-2 bridge humbucker delivers the aggressive, high output tone Alexi was known for, while the scalloped upper frets and extra jumbo fretwire make wide bends, vibrato and fast legato lines feel effortless. Finished in a striking black with white pinstripes and fitted with chrome hardware, this is a fitting tribute to one of metal’s most influential guitarists.
Every detail of the Sawtooth SE is geared towards speed and precision. The 25.5 inch scale length and Macassar ebony fingerboard offer a familiar feel for modern players, while the 350 mm radius keeps things low and fast without fretting out. A locking nut, Grover tuners and Floyd Rose 1000 bridge work together to keep your tuning locked in, even under the most extreme divebombs and squeals.
Whether you are chasing Alexi’s iconic lead tone or simply want a no compromise metal guitar that will keep up with your technique, the LTD Alexi Laiho Sawtooth SE 20th Anniversary delivers the playability, tone and attitude to take your playing to the next level.
Fast Neck-Thru Construction
The neck-thru design of the Sawtooth SE gives you incredible upper fret access and a smooth, uninterrupted feel all the way up the neck. By running the 3 piece maple neck through the centre of the alder body, you also gain enhanced sustain and note clarity, ideal for long, singing leads and complex chord voicings under high gain.
Scalloped Upper Frets for Extreme Lead Work
With the fingerboard scalloped from frets 19 to 24, the Sawtooth SE makes wide bends, controlled vibrato and fast legato playing easier and more expressive. Removing wood between the frets reduces friction under your fingertips, so you can dig in harder without fighting the fingerboard, perfect for the kind of intense soloing Alexi was famous for.
Floyd Rose 1000 Tremolo and Locking Nut
A Floyd Rose 1000 double locking tremolo paired with a locking nut ensures rock solid tuning stability, even with extreme whammy bar abuse. Divebombs, flutters and squeals all return to pitch reliably, letting you focus on performance rather than constantly re tuning between songs.
High Output EMG HZ FH-2 Bridge Pickup
The passive EMG HZ FH-2 bridge humbucker delivers the tight, aggressive tone required for modern metal. Its high output voice cuts through dense mixes with ease, while still retaining enough clarity and definition for complex riffs and rapid alternate picking. With a simple single volume control, your sound stays direct, immediate and ready to roar.
Features
- Neck-Thru Alder Body with 3 Piece Maple Neck - Neck-thru construction enhances sustain and provides seamless upper fret access, while the alder body and maple neck combination delivers a tight, focused tone that stays articulate under high gain.
- Scalloped Frets 19 to 24 - The scalloped upper register makes bends and vibrato easier to control and more expressive, giving lead players the freedom to execute extreme techniques with less effort.
- Floyd Rose 1000 Tremolo with Locking Nut - A double locking Floyd Rose 1000 bridge and locking nut provide exceptional tuning stability, allowing for aggressive tremolo use without sacrificing pitch accuracy.
- EMG HZ FH-2 Bridge Humbucker - The high output passive EMG HZ FH-2 offers a powerful, cutting tone tailored for metal riffing and solos, with enough clarity to keep complex passages defined and punchy.
