The LTD SD-2 is a sleek, no-nonsense performance guitar built for speed, precision, and uncompromising modern tone. Its neck-thru mahogany construction provides exceptional sustain and effortless access across all 24 stainless steel frets, while the extra-thin U neck and Macassar ebony fingerboard offer a fast, comfortable playing experience. Equipped with a Seymour Duncan Blackouts Metal pickup, the SD-2 delivers crushing output, tight low end, and razor-sharp articulation for even the most demanding high-gain styles. Finished in classic Black with a Floyd Rose 1000SE tremolo, this lightweight LTD is an inspiring instrument built to excel on stage, in the studio, and beyond.

Founder of legendary New Orleans-based extreme metal band Goatwhore, Sammy Duet is renowned for creating speedy, tight rhythms and insanely brutal riffs. His signature guitar, the LTD SD-2, is based on Sammy’s own ESP Custom Shop model, made famous by its identifiable Random Star shape. The SD-2 offers sturdy neck-thru-body construction at 24.75” scale for fast, easy access to the highest frets. This mahogany body, 3-piece mahogany neck guitar has a bound Macassar ebony fingerboard with 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, diamond-shaped mother-of-pearl inlays, and glow-in-the-dark side markers. Components on the LTD SD-2 include a Floyd Rose 1000 SE double-locking tremolo with stainless steel screws. Its sound is driven by a single Seymour Duncan Blackouts Metal AHB-2 active pickup, designed to provide the articulate response necessary for modern metal, but specially configured for a more moderate output level that delivers the rich, full-bodied tone you've come to expect from Sammy. Includes ESP hardshell case.
