Product Detail

The unique camo finish is based on a pattern from high - performance hunting gear maker KUIU, hand - picked by Hetfield. A matching special hardshell case is included. A part of the proceeds goes to Metallica’s All Within My Hands Foundation, which supports workforce education, the fight against hunger, and other local services. Key specs: 350mm fingerboard radius, 42mm nut width, molded nut type, black hardware, LTD locking tuners, and D'Addario XL110 strings.
Using this guitar is a breeze. First, make sure your strings are properly tuned using the LTD locking tuners. Plug in your amplifier and start strumming away. When playing, hold the thin U - shaped neck for a comfortable grip. For different tones, use the volume/volume/toggle switch on the electronics layout. As for maintenance, keep your guitar in the matching hardshell case when not in use to protect it from scratches and damage. Wipe the body and fingerboard regularly with a soft cloth. Check the strings often and replace them when they start to sound dull. Avoid exposing the guitar to extreme temperatures or humidity, as this can damage the wood and affect the tuning. Also, be gentle with the TonePros locking TOM bridge and tailpiece to keep the tuning stable.
