Ben Burnley is the founder of the eponymously named rock/alt-metal band Breaking Benjamin, and his LTD Signature Series guitar, the BB-600 Baritone, is the driving force for this frontman's musical creations.

The BB-600B is one of the most versatile signature models ever made by ESP. It includes two distinct pickup types: a pair of high-quality magnetic pickups (with a set comprised of Seymour Duncan '59 and JB), as well as a Graph Tech Ghost-Loaded Resomax NV bridge and tailpiece that offers an integrated piezo pickup. The BB-600B also includes two output jacks, allowing you to route the signal from the standard magnetic pickups to one amplifier and the piezo pickup to another for incredible flexibility onstage or in studios.

More than just sonically flexible, the BB-600B is an incredible instrument in other ways as well. A single-cutaway Eclipse body style with set-thru construction, the BB-600B is a baritone guitar at 27" scale, allowing for downtuning without sacrificing ideal string tension. Its mahogany body is topped with quilted maple in an amazing See-Thru Black Sunburst Satin finish. It offers a thin U-shaped three-piece maple neck for a comfortable playing feel. The aesthetic of this guitar is complemented with custom red pickup covers, red fingerboard inlays with the Breaking Benjamin symbol, and a red LTD logo. Includes hardshell case.

    This thing sounds and plays amazing. It's my new favorite guitar and no I'm not being biased because Im a huge Ben Burnley fan haha. No locking tuners but still stays in tune really good, even after rough playing. Piezo sounds beautiful (it was my first guitar with a piezo in it). The quilted maple/ satin finish is even more beautiful in person. It also comes with a sticker, cleaning cloth, keys for the case lock and tools for adjustment. A must have if you're a big fan of BB and or love playing down tuned music.

    Hey there, so this is a baritone guitar, and I'm curious if anyone knows what Manufacture (strings) and which gauge(think this is the correct term) that the strings come with the guitar? Did anyone have to replace the nut or would anyone recommend swapping out the nut?

    I just bought this BB-600 ESP guitar, and needed to buy a case for it.  I know that ESP has several cases specified for the bass models, but wasn't sure if that was compatible with the BB-600, or if there was a better case for it. 

Thanks!
