    NOTE: Due to ongoing challenges in the global supply chain, instruments purchased from ShopESP that are not currently in stock may take an extended time frame to be delivered.

    The LTD 10 Series is designed for beginners and players on a tight budget who still want a solid instrument for the money. The MH-17 includes both an excellent starter guitar with seven strings, and a gig bag so you’ll be able to take your instrument to lessons, or out to your friends’ homes for fun jams. Seven-string guitars are great for modern music styles like metal and progressive rock, where you may want to go lower than the standard range of pitches offered by six-string guitars. The MH-17 has a smooth, comfortable, thin U-shaped maple neck that will make it easier to get around to chords and scales all over the fingerboard with 24 extra-jumbo frets. It has a well-balanced and contoured basswood body that's good for playing while seated or standing. When you're ready to rock, the MH-17's ESP Designed pickups are great for any genre of music you like to play. Available in Black finish.

    I just bought one of these from musiciansfriend and it has a decent crack in the fretboard. Neck is fine and it doesn’t really effect the playability for now but I worry down the road it may cause issues.. is there anyway I could order a new neck or fretboard for it? Just asking because if that’s not something I can do down the road I’m definitely gonna have to return it and get a refund and maybe reorder... please help thanks

        I bought this guitar for my husband back in February, n the frets were so sharp it cut up his fingers and was able to shred paper no problem. Returned it, purchased a new one, same issue. Is this just something that’s going to happen with all of these guitars?

            Agreed.  I got the same model recently and the quality control for the frets needs to be checked.  Though sometimes this can be subjective depending on where they come from.  They may have been perfect when they left, but with wood shrinkage due to climate, it can expose those ends.  It wasn't a big deal for me to use my fret files to smooth them out a bit.  Mine's fine now.

              What is the differeve between the Guitar Center ones and nonGuitar Center ones. Where  can I order this to get it with the gig bag since guitar center's are different.

                The only difference is the color (Black or Black Satin) and the GC model doesn't have a bag. You can order our regular models from any Authorized ESP Dealer.

                  I bought this guitar from guitar center and didn't get a gig bag with it. Are you only able to get the gig bag straight from esp and not other retailers?

                    Hi Hunter, The GC model they sell is an exclusive, different SKU without a bag.  You can purchase a bag directly from ESP or any of our authorized retailers.
