ESP Guitars introduces the new LTD DX Series, offering high-quality guitars at a more affordable price.
The LTD EC-200DX FM, M-200DX, and TE-200DX are each being made in two new finishes, and are available now at ESP dealers worldwide.
“The DX Series provides a solution for customers who want a high-quality, low-cost entry point to ESP features and playability,” says Blue Wilding, ESP Brand Manager. “We want our guitars to be accessible to every level of player and at every budget, and the DX Series delivers way more than anyone would expect for their modest price."
Available in Blue Burst and Charcoal Burst finishes, the LTD EC-200DX offers a flat-top single-cutaway Eclipse body with a bevelled edge. It’s built with bolt-on construction at 24.75” scale, featuring a very comfortable poplar body with a flamed maple top, and a roasted maple neck with a rosewood fingerboard. This guitar includes a TOM-style bridge and tailpiece, 24 extra-jumbo frets, dot inlays, and black chrome hardware. The EC-200DX includes a set of ESP’s acclaimed LH-150 humbucking pickups with matching black chrome covers, providing punchy, great tone for all genres of music, along with the flexibility of single-coil tones controlled by a push-pull switch on the tone knob.
The LTD M-200DX is available in Blue Burst and Purple Burst finishes, offering the streamlined M shape with a great-looking burled poplar top. Built with bolt-on construction at 25.5” scale, the M-200DX includes classy features like a roasted maple neck, rosewood fingerboard with 24 frets, black chrome hardware, a TOM-style bridge with string-thru-body design, body binding, offset dot inlays, and a reverse headstock. The M-200DX also features ESP LH-150 humbucking pickups with matching black chrome covers. Also available in Blue Burst and Purple Burst finishes, the LTD TE-200DX offers the classic LTD TE shape with features for contemporary guitarists. These include a lightweight and comfortable poplar body with a burled poplar top, and a roasted maple neck with rosewood fingerboard and 24 frets. The TE-200DX also features a hardtail bridge, black chrome hardware, black body binding, a tiltback headstock, and a set of acclaimed ESP LH-150 humbucking pickups with matching black chrome covers.

Jedd tells us how his dream came true and how he first started playing with Vince. We dig deep into how everybody’s favorite country guitarist raises the bar every time he picks up the guitar, how he gets his amazing clean tone, and we take time to appreciate all aspects of his solos—including how he builds them and how he plays such clean bends. As for why his concerts are so long? “He loves to play.”
In our current listening segment, we’re covering the Black Crowes and Jimmy Page’s Live at the Greek box set and a live recording from Burlington, Vermont’s Breathwork.
