{"product_id":"ltd-m-201ht-baritone-guitar-black","title":"LTD M201HT Baritone Electric Guitar Black","description":"\u003ch2\u003eThe Baritone Guitar That Actually Makes Sense for Heavy Players\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you have been tuning your standard guitar down to drop A or B standard and wondering why everything sounds like a wet blanket, the LTD M201HT Baritone is the answer. A 27 inch scale length changes everything. More string tension at lower tunings means your low end stays tight, defined, and articulate instead of turning into mush. This is the guitar that makes drop tunings feel like they were designed that way, because they were.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe carry the M201HT Baritone in Black here at The Pied Piper Music Store in Charleston, West Virginia. If you are in the area, come in and we will tune it down and run it through a good amp so you can hear exactly what it does. If you are shopping from home, we ship free anywhere in the continental US and local customers can choose in store pickup at checkout.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBuilt for the Low End\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe mahogany body with bolt on construction gives you a warm, resonant foundation that translates well at baritone tunings. The three piece maple neck is stiff and stable, which matters a lot when you are running heavier gauge strings at lower tension. The rosewood fingerboard has black binding, offset dot inlays, and 24 extra jumbo frets so you have the full range of the neck without any compromise on feel or playability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe LTD fixed hardtail bridge with string through body construction is the right call here. No floating bridge to fight with when you are retuning, and the string through design adds sustain and keeps everything locked in. This is a guitar built to stay in tune and stay out of your way while you play.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOne Pickup Built for This Job\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe single direct mount ESP LH-150B humbucker with antique nickel cover is voiced specifically for baritone applications. It runs hot, it handles the low frequencies without getting muddy, and it delivers the thick, aggressive tone that rock and metal players are after in this register. The push pull volume knob adds coil splitting so you can get single coil sounds when the song calls for it. One pickup, one tone control, no distractions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho This Guitar Is For\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you play metal, doom, djent, progressive rock, or any style where you are spending time in B standard, drop A, or lower, the M201HT Baritone belongs in your hands. It is also a great tool for guitarists who write in lower registers and want a dedicated instrument that does not require constant compensation for a scale length that was not designed for those tunings. This is not a novelty. It is a working instrument built for a specific purpose and it does that purpose extremely well.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody: Mahogany, bolt on construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck: Three piece maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard: Rosewood with black binding, 24 extra jumbo frets, offset dot inlays\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale Length: 27 inches (baritone)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard Tuning: B E A D G B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickup: ESP LH-150B humbucker with antique nickel cover, direct mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControls: Volume with push pull coil split\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge: LTD fixed hardtail with string through body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Gloss Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: LM201BHTBLK\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ESPLTD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43162250379353,"sku":"LM201BHTBLK","price":599.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0615\/9338\/7097\/files\/13748F4B-0CC6-40F0-A56C-B326424A1F16_a4c3799e-009b-4909-8b7b-f27a2810cf2d.png?v=1774582956","url":"https:\/\/thepiedpipermusicstore.com\/products\/ltd-m-201ht-baritone-guitar-black","provider":"The Pied Piper Music Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
