ESP Custom Shop Alexi Hexed Purple Fade Demo
DESCRIPTION
As the frontman and lead guitarist in Finnish melodic death metal masters Children of Bodom, Alexi Laiho influenced an entire generation of guitar players with his combination of mind-blowing neo-classical lead lines and pure blazing speed. ESP will always be proud of our long association with this internationally-beloved musician, and his iconic Signature Series guitars will continue inspiring players to push past their limits for generations to come.
Created by hand, one at a time by the artisans of the ESP Custom Shop in Japan, the ESP Alexi Hexed is the identical model designed and played by one of the most beloved and influential figures in metal music: Alexi Laiho of Children of Bodom/Bodom After Midnight. The ESP Alexi Hexed is offered in an offset V shape with neck-thru-body construction at 25.5” scale. It features a three-piece thin u-shaped maple neck with natural satin finish for smooth and fast playability, alder body wings, and an ebony fingerboard (scalloped from frets 19-24) with 24 extra-jumbo frets, sawtooth inlays, and glow-in-the-dark side markers. High-end components on this outstanding guitar include Gotoh locking tuners, ESP strap locks, and a double-locking Floyd Rose Original bridge. A single EMG HZ F-H2 passive humbucker creates the excellent presence and clarity with a punchy response that you can expect from the ESP Alexi Hexed. It also includes an ESP MM-04 active boost switch, a preamp circuit with adjustable EQ settings and up to +18dB of boost when you need it! Available in Purple Fade finish with light purple pinstripes, with matching back and sides. Includes deluxe ESP hardshell case.

INDIVIDUALLY PHOTOGRAPHED
After 15 years of innovation in our photography process, Ish Guitars has developed a way to get you the most accurate true-to-life color of every instrument we sell. We never embellish, oversaturate, or misrepresent our images, so that your buying experience can be as much like visiting our showroom as possible. Keep in mind that various computer screens can show colors a bit differently, so the color on your screen may not match the real thing perfectly no matter how hard we try. Also, unless otherwise noted, we individually list and photo every piece of gear that comes through our doors.
