Designed in close collaboration with Kreator's iconic frontman Mille Petrozza, the ESP LTD Mille Petrozza EC-FR electric guitar delivers the speed, tone and playability demanded by metal guitarists. This signature model features custom appointments tailored specifically for Petrozza's hard-hitting thrash metal style, including a thin U-shaped neck for fast lead playing.

Shred Easily with a Fast Thin U-Shaped Neck

The ESP LTD Mille Petrozza EC-FR has an extra-thin U-shaped neck made of maple with a macassar ebony fingerboard, providing exceptional comfort and allowing for easy access to all 24 jumbo stainless steel frets. The thin profile facilitates intricate soloing while the ebony fingerboard offers silky smooth playability. Whether you're ripping through lightning-fast solos or chugging out palm-muted riffs, this guitar keeps up with the most technically demanding metal playing.

Crushing Tones from EMG Active Pickups

Equipped with EMG 81 (bridge) and EMG 60 (neck) active pickups, the ESP LTD Mille Petrozza EC-FR delivers bone-crushing distortion perfect for metal. The EMG 81 provides tight bass, scooped mids and sizzling highs for aggressive rhythms and searing leads. Switch to the EMG 60 for warm, articulate cleans. Individual volume knobs allow blending the pickups to shape your tone.

Sleekly Contoured Mahogany Body

The ESP LTD Mille Petrozza EC-FR gets its resonant yet defined tone from a sleekly contoured mahogany body with beveled edges. Weighing in at a comfortable 7.9 lb. this guitar combines solid construction with a slim profile for hours of fatigue-free playing. The smooth double-cutaway design allows easy access to the highest frets.

Road-Ready With a Deluxe Hardshell Case

Designed for the rigors of touring, the ESP LTD Mille Petrozza EC-FR includes a deluxe hardshell case to protect it during transport and storage. The case keeps your signature guitar secure while preventing damage from bumps, scrapes or changes in temperature and humidity.
