Description

The ESP LTD M-6 EverTune 30 Black Metal baritone electric guitar brings the stripped-down aggression of LTD's Black Metal design approach to an extreme low-tuning 6-string built around a massive 30" scale. Its mahogany body, maple cap and bolt-on 3-piece maple neck provide the tension and response needed for low-register riffing, while the extra-thin U-shaped profile keeps the feel fast and controlled. A Macassar ebony fingerboard with 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets supports modern technical playing, and the EverTune constant-tension bridge works with a Seymour Duncan Mortal Coil 3-Voice active bridge pickup to keep heavy low-tuned parts focused and consistent.

30" Scale for Extreme Low Range

The 30" scale length is what separates the M-6 EverTune 30 from a typical baritone. That extra scale provides the tension needed for tunings that reach far below standard guitar range while still keeping a six-string layout in the player’s hands. For guitarists who want extended-range depth without moving to bass, this instrument gives low notes more authority and control.

EverTune Stability for Deep Tunings

Low tunings can expose every weakness in a guitar’s setup, which is why the EverTune constant-tension bridge system is such a key part of the M-6 EverTune 30. The system is designed to deliver precise tuning and intonation across the neck in changing playing and environmental conditions. That stability is especially valuable when riffs rely on massive low notes that need to stay tight under hard picking.

Mahogany Body and Maple Cap

Bolt-on construction pairs a mahogany body with a maple cap, giving the guitar a strong tonal base with added attack and definition. The Black Red Burst Satin finish fits the Black Metal identity while adding more visual depth than a plain black finish. This body recipe helps the M-6 EverTune 30 maintain weight and clarity even when the tuning drops into unusually low territory.

Fast Maple Neck and Stainless Frets

An extra-thin U-shaped 3-piece maple neck keeps the long-scale design playable and familiar. The Macassar ebony fingerboard provides a slick surface for fast movement, while 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets support aggressive bends, wide stretches and precise articulation. Despite the extreme scale length, the layout is still aimed at guitarists who need speed and accuracy.

Mortal Coil Voice and Black Metal Focus

The Seymour Duncan Mortal Coil 3-Voice active bridge pickup gives the M-6 EverTune 30 the output and focus needed for deep modern metal tones. A 3-way toggle selects the pickup voices, expanding the bridge position beyond a single fixed sound. LTD locking tuners, black hardware and the EverTune bridge complete a guitar built for players who want octave-down Bass-IV range with tuning confidence and clear Black Metal purpose.
