The AP-5 holds down the low end in style. That’s largely thanks to active electronics and a pair of powerful EMG pickups, fitted in classic P/J configuration. This arrangement gives you the low-end punch from the split-coil EMG P5 pickup in the middle position, along with the aggressive growl from the EMG LJ5 single-coil at the bridge. Mix up your signature blend with the volume, pickup balance, and tone controls, and you’re ready to rock.ESP’s LTD marque was created to bring a more affordable version of the classic designs and quality of ESP guitars to a new market.
