Alexi Laiho
Alexi Laiho, the highly acclaimed guitarist and
frontman for Finnish metal band Children of Bodom, has put his name on his first
Signature Series guitars for ESP. The models, in 2 different finish
combinations, are being released under the company's ESP and LTD brands.
"Alexi has risen through the ranks to be considered one of today's top
guitarists," says Allen Steelgrave, ESP Director of Marketing and Artist
Relations. "His model was originally designed with the ESP Custom Shop in Japan,
but we were always besieged with requests from customers who wanted a model made
to his spec. Now, they can get Alexi's custom axe, down to the most minute
detail."
The new LTD Alexi-600 offers a striking V-shaped alder body available in 2
finishes: Black w/Yellow stripe and White w/Black stripe. The guitar has a
neck-thru 25.5 in. design, using a 3-piece Maple neck with a 24-fret Ebony
fingerboard and saw-tooth inlays. The LTD Alexi includes White binding on neck
and head, and comes with professional-quality components including a Floyd Rose
original tremolo, Grover tuners, and a single EMG HZ H-4 pickup.
