ESP LTD Elite J-4 STAMB electric bass guitar See Thru Amber

General

The ESP LTD Elite J-4 STAMB (See Thru Amber) is a luxury bass guitar for professional bass players. It is an excellent choice for musicians who would like their guitar to be in between an expensive ESP and a friendlier-priced LTD. The most notable feature for the Elite J-4 is its stylish design: a classic bass guitar body with a Quilted Maple top. Quilted Maple is used for its remarkable grain pattern, which in this case shines through the amber-coloured lacquer beautifully.

The high-quality sound of the Elite J-4

With its ash body, the LTD Elite J4 STAMB produces quality sounds with a warm, round character that are excellently transferred by two SJB-1 Seymour Duncan pickups as they retain the fat sound excellently, along with its clarity and definition. The high-quality Gotoh bridge allows for a strings-through-body setup for even better sustain and attack.

Made in Japan by ESP's guitar builders

It is a dream of many guitarists to own a high-end ESP guitar some day. However, these highly professional instruments are very costly indeed, which is why ESP started their daughter company LTD. LTD produces budget versions of ESP guitars. However, the LTD Elite series offers you the best of both worlds - the high-quality finish of a hand-built Japanese ESP at a price that is more towards that of affordable Indonesian and Korean LTD guitars. Ideal for professional players on a budget.
