ESP LTD FB-4 (2015) Frank Bello Signature elektrische basgitaar

General

The ESP LTD FB-4 is the improved version of the FB-4 Frank Bello (Anthrax) signature bass guitar. One of its most striking features is its durable anodised aluminium pickguard, as it has a beautiful silver colour that complements the chrome hardware, and which really stands out on the satin-black body. The body is also home to two active humbucker pickups by the renowned EMG company. These pickups produce an open, organic sound with the PX handling strength and volume, while the JX does wonders among the mids and trebles.

FB-4 (2015): high quality components

At Frank Bello's request, this electric bass guitar is equipped with an alder body - resulting in a light weight and an exceptionally balanced tone. To add more attack and tightness to the sound, this bass guitar was fitted with an ebony fretboard. What's more, the FB-4 sports a high-quality Gotoh bridge and stylish block inlays on the fretboard, as well as a type number inlay at the 12th fret. Thanks to the double cutaway it is easy to reach the highest frets, and the volume, balance and tone controls allow you to fine-tune the sound to your liking.

ESP's LTD bass guitars

LTD is a subdivision of the renowned ESP brand. Many hard rock and heavy metal bass players, ranging from amateur to professional to rock legend, own an ESP instrument. ESP guitars aren't exclusive to rock and (heavy) metal though. ESP offers several series, including a large number of signature models made in collaboration with famous artists. LTD guitars are perfect if a professional instrument is out of your reach just yet. They offer durable quality, a beautiful shape, a tasteful finish and excellent sound at a reasonable price.
