ESP LTD GL Desert Eagle Electric Guitar

The ESP LTD GL Desert Eagle is a modern reimagining of George Lynch’s legendary Kamikaze model, one of the most iconic ESP signature guitars ever created. Featuring a stunning Desert Eagle graphic, this high-performance shred machine offers an alder body, a bolt-on maple neck, and a Macassar ebony fingerboard designed for speed, sustain, and precision.

Built with George Lynch’s original U-shaped neck profile, 22 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, and subtle black binding, this guitar is crafted for players who demand fast action and maximum tonal clarity. The Floyd Rose 1000SE double-locking tremolo with stainless steel screws ensures stable tuning and expressive dive-bombs, while the special low-friction volume pot delivers smooth, precise control.

The GL Desert Eagle is loaded with a unique pickup combination, featuring a Seymour Duncan ‘78 humbucker in the bridge for hot vintage tone, and an ESP LS-120 single-coil in the neck for crisp articulation. The push-pull volume knob serves as the pickup selector, maintaining a streamlined, no-fuss control setup.
