ESP LTD B255 5-String Electric Bass

Now ESP delivers amazing affordability in a neck-thru, flame top bass with EMG active EQ. You can even choose to string thru the body or thru the top for the perfect feel and attack. The specially contoured body is very comfortable and provides a solid foundation for tone. Precision 3-band active EQ gives you the ultimate in onboard control and tone shaping. Rock solid construction includes a 5-piece maple/walnut neck, an agathis body, a rosewood fingerboard with 24 easy playing XJ frets, and Cosmo Black hardware.

String-Thru Bass Bridge
Whether you want to increase overall string tension or just "beef up" your string attack, the string-thru option is a big plus. This bridge can be used in either "string-thru-body" or traditional "string from the top" configurations".

5-piece Maple/Walnut Neck
This neck design provides a very solid feel and an improved transfer of tone from the neck to the body. Increased neck stability and performance will man less frequent truss rod adjustments

Double Action Truss Rods
All ESP/LTD guitars and basses feature a 'double-action' truss rod design. Unlike a normal (single) truss rod, this one is adjustable in two different directions. This means that you'll never run into a situation where the neck has 'run out of adjustment'. Regardless of which ESP model you choose, you'll get years and years of playing enjoyment.

EMG-HZ Pickups
Each EMG-HZ bass pickup is created for its unique sound quality and includes features from over 25 years of EMG's design experience. Players all over the world agree that EMG is the leading authority in pickup technology. EMG-HZ: advancing the art of the passive pickup.
