The legendary EX model gets the Black Metal treatment with a dark and menacing design theme of all-black finish, components, and hardware, a single premium-quality pickup, Macassar ebony fingerboard with no inlays and glow-in-the-dark side markers, and even a newly-designed black metal LTD logo on the headstock. The EX Black Metal features set-thru construction, 22 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, a TonePros locking bridge and tailpiece, and a single direct-mount EMG 81 pickup with black logo.
