Phoenix body style combines classic contours with next-gen performance

This evocative contour doesn't just add to the look of the LTD Phoenix-401, it affords you an extra degree of comfort any gigging guitar player can appreciate. What's more, its gently swept cutaway makes reaching those higher frets super easy, so you don't have to sacrifice function for form when you're rocking a LTD Phoenix-401.

Get classic hard rock tones from this time-tested combo of Seymour Duncan pickups
ESP seriously loaded up the LTD Phoenix-401 with a killer set of Seymour Duncan humbucking pickups. First there's the LTD Phoenix-401's neck pickup, a Seymour Duncan '59 model that gives you creamy P.A.F. tone with slightly scooped mids and more than enough attitude for hard rock. It's the perfect laid-back complement to the Duncan JB model pickup at the LTD Phoenix-401's bridge, whose much hotter output lets you slam on the throttle for extra crunchy riffage.
