The ESP LTD Sammy Duet SD-2 is a savage, stage-ready take on the Acid Bath founder’s legendary ESP Custom Shop model.
Built for maximum playability and sustain, the SD-2 features a Mahogany body paired with neck-through-body construction for strength, resonance, and lightning-fast access to the upper frets. Its 3-piece Mahogany neck sports an extra-thin “U” profile for blistering speed, capped with a bound Macassar Ebony fingerboard boasting 24 extra-jumbo stainless-steel frets, diamond-shaped Mother-of-Pearl inlays, and glow-in-the-dark side markers that keep you locked in under even the darkest stage lights.
Tone comes courtesy of a single Seymour Duncan Blackout active humbucker at the bridge — a pickup chosen for its devastating clarity, razor-sharp attack, and crushing high-output response. Designed to cut through dense mixes with precision, the Blackout delivers the articulate grind and dynamic punch demanded by modern metal players.
A Floyd Rose 1000 SE double-locking tremolo with stainless steel screws ensures rock-solid tuning stability, whether you’re dive-bombing, squealing, or chugging through relentless down-picked passages. LTD locking tuners and a locking nut add another layer of reliability for high-intensity performances.
Finished in menacing Black and housed in an ESP hardshell case, the LTD SD-2 is a weapon built for the serious metal guitarist. Get the ESP LTD Sammy Duet SD-2 here for $1,699 and keep up with all our LTD coverage right here!
