The LTD Arctic Metal Series takes the same design theme of our Black Metal Series and flips the color scheme from the darkest of blacks to the coldest of frozen wastelands. Comparable in build quality to our LTD Deluxe “1000 Series”, Arctic Metal instruments feature a Snow White Satin finish, a single premium-quality pickup with matching white cover, and Macassar ebony fingerboards with no inlays and glow-in-the-dark side markers. The M-4 Arctic Metal takes the aggressive inline headstock, extra-thin U-shaped neck, and flat body of the M Series, and offers it in the brilliant design theme of the Arctic Metal Series. This is a neck-thru-body bass at 35” scale, making it great for those who downtune. It features a three-piece maple neck and alder body, contrasting black binding on the neck and headstock, and components that include 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, Grover tuners, a Gotoh bridge, and an EMG 35CS-TW active pickup, custom made for ESP with a white cover and black logo, controlled with a single volume knob with push-pull for coil splitting.
