Description

There’s no mistaking the extreme, aggressive shape of the ESP FRX. Its bold, beveled body is designed for musicians who don’t want to blend in; they want to stand out from the crowd, and the ESP FRX CTM offers the style, quality, and incredible playability for serious players in any genre of heavy music. Handcrafted one at a time by the world-renowned luthiers in the ESP Custom Shop in Japan, the ESP FRX CTM is a set-neck design that pairs a mahogany body with burled maple top to a three-piece maple neck in a way that allows for fast and smooth access to the highest frets. Only the highest-end top-tier components have been selected for this FRX model, including Schaller straplocks, Gotoh locking tuners, a Floyd Rose Original bridge, and an outstanding set of Seymour Duncan Sentient and Nazgûl pickups. This pickup set was specifically designed to offer the searing highs, grinding mids and tight bass tones that define modern metal. Available in Magenta Blue Burst finish. Includes deluxe hardshell case.

SEYMOUR DUNCAN SENTIENT
The Sentient neck delivers a balanced, versatile tone that fits right between the ’59 model and the Jazz neck pickup. You’ll get pristine cleans for intricate chordal and single note runs with fluid leads under high gain. The Sentient is a vintage output pickup with great dynamic response and a wide harmonic range. It works great for low tunings in all humbucker-equipped guitars.

SEYMOUR DUNCAN NAZGÛL
Take your guitar to the center of the earth! By combining a large ceramic magnet with custom winding specs, the Nazgûl offers the perfect blend of note articulation, saturation and one of the most brutal “chugs” you’ll ever hear from a humbucker. It has incredible harmonic content across all frequency ranges, and an insanely tight bass response. The Nazgûl has a seriously aggressive high gain sound that is lively, yet completely controllable.
