ESP LTD Mick Thomson MT-1 Signature Guitar - Obsidian Metallic | No Limit Guitar Co, Idaho Falls

Introduction

The ESP LTD Mick Thomson MT-1 is a high-performance signature electric guitar that faithfully reproduces Slipknot's legendary #7 weapon of choice. Featuring a striking white ash-topped mahogany body and Fishman Fluence signature pickups, this instrument delivers the crushing tone and playability that powers Mick's devastating metal riffs. Professional players and Slipknot fans alike will appreciate the authentic details and stage-ready performance of this exceptional signature model.

Product Overview

Construction and Materials

The MT-1 features a resonant mahogany body capped with a white ash veneer top, providing both visual impact and tonal foundation for heavy metal playing styles. The sleek double-cutaway design offers excellent upper fret access, while the set-through 3-piece maple neck construction ensures maximum sustain and stability during intense performances. Finished in a striking Obsidian Metallic gloss, this guitar captures the menacing aesthetic that has defined Mick's stage presence throughout his career.

Neck and Playability

The thin U-shaped 3-piece maple neck offers exceptional comfort and speed for technical playing, complemented by a smooth satin finish that eliminates drag during fast movements. The premium Macassar ebony fingerboard features a comfortable 12-inch radius and 24 medium-jumbo stainless steel frets, providing the perfect platform for everything from crushing rhythm work to blazing leads. With its 25.5" scale length and 1.653" nut width, this guitar delivers a familiar feel with the added response needed for down-tuned metal styles.

Electronics and Hardware

At the heart of the MT-1's sonic capabilities is a Fishman Fluence Mick Thomson signature humbucker, engineered to capture his distinctive tone with remarkable clarity and power. The innovative push-pull volume control provides instant access to different voicings, while the premium Hipshot hardware—including a high-mass bridge and Grip Lock open-gear tuners—ensures rock-solid tuning stability and enhanced sustain. This thoughtfully designed electronic and hardware package delivers the versatility and reliability demanded by professional metal guitarists.
