The LTD Deluxe XJ-2HT is designed for professional guitar players who require the versatile tones, smooth playability, and complete reliability for serious recording and touring needs. This guitar takes the offset, asymmetrical XJ body shape and provides it with the feature set designed for the modern musician. Built with bolt-on construction at 25.5” scale, the XJ-2HT has a resonant swamp ash body and a smooth, thin U-shaped three-piece roasted maple neck with Macassar ebony fingerboard, block pearloid inlays, 22 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, and a matching reverse headstock. Components on the XJ-2 HT include black hardware, a black bone nut, LTD locking tuners, a Hipshot hardtail bridge with string-thru-body, and a set of direct-mounted Fishman Fluence Modern 3-Voice Humbucker pickups — ceramic in the bridge, and alnico in the neck — with brushed stainless covers. Push-pull controls allow for selection of these innovative pickups’ multiple voices.
