ESP LTD Black Metal Series M-6 EverTune 30 Black Metal Black Red Burst Satin

ESP LTD M-6 EverTune 30 Black Metal – made for extreme low tunings!

The ESP LTD M-6 EverTune 30 Black Metal brings the uncompromising concept of the Black Metal Series to an exceptional 30" scale. This goes well beyond a classic baritone electric guitar, opening up a range that allows for extremely low tunings—even a full octave below the standard tuning of a regular guitar. Despite its greatly extended scale, it remains a six-string electric guitar, designed for players who want to combine massive downtuning with familiar guitar architecture. Its straightforward M-shaped body and pared-back electronics are perfectly in keeping with the functional focus of the Black Metal Series.

30" scale for uncompromising extended-range playing

The defining feature of this model is its 30" scale. Paired with a specially gauged D'Addario string set ranging from .024 to .084, it provides the foundation for extremely low tunings. The mahogany body with maple top is paired with a 3-piece maple neck, whose Extra-Thin U profile reflects the modern design of the M Series. The Makassar ebony fingerboard has a 350 mm radius and 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets. ESP LTD combines the unusually long scale with a neck construction clearly designed for precise, modern playing.

EverTune for consistent string tension and tuning

On a guitar that reaches so far into the low register, tuning stability is especially important. That's why ESP LTD has equipped it with an EverTune bridge. The system maintains constant string tension and is designed to keep tuning and intonation stable across the fingerboard. In combination with the 30" scale, the EverTune bridge is not merely an incidental feature but a key part of this guitar's overall concept. LTD locking tuners complete the hardware and reinforce its stability-focused design.

Seymour Duncan MortalCoil with three voices

The electronics are deliberately pared down to a single active bridge humbucker. The Seymour Duncan MortalCoil 3-Voice humbucker offers three distinct voices, selected via a separate 3-way switch. This keeps operation simple with a single volume control while still giving the pickup three different tonal characters. This combination of minimalism and carefully chosen versatility suits the Black Metal Series: no overloaded circuitry, just a focused setup for modern, deeply tuned and powerful guitar playing.

Black Metal Series with an unusual concept

Within the ESP LTD lineup, the M-6 EverTune 30 Black Metal occupies a special place. Its combination of a six-string M platform, 30" scale, active 3-Voice humbucker and EverTune bridge makes it more than just an extended-scale standard guitar. Rather, the entire design is tailored to extended-range downtuning. For players seeking a six-string electric guitar for pitches that usually lie well outside the traditional guitar range, this is a highly specialized tool.
