LTD EC-256 Electric Guitar (Vintage Natural)
The LTD 200 Series guitars offer an excellent price-to-quality ratio, and the EC-256 embodies many of the coolest aspects of the pricier EC models in an extremely affordable, drive-ready instrument. The classic single-cut shape suits every style and genre, and the multi-ply binding on body and headstock looks the way a high-end instrument should. The Vintage Natural finish reveals the warm mahogany grain — honest classic, no frills.

ESP Designed LH-150 Humbuckers with Coil Split
The acclaimed ESP Designed LH-150B/LH-150N humbuckers guarantee great tone for any music — from thick classic rock to modern metal. A push-pull on the tone control engages a coil split: chiming single-coil tones for clean parts — flexibility rarely seen at this price point. The classic "two volumes, tone, 3-way switch" layout.
Set Neck and Upper-Fret Access
Playing the EC-256 is a true dream come true: the set-neck construction gives fast, easy access to the highest frets and the singing sustain of a classic single-cut. A mahogany body, a comfortable and fast three-piece mahogany neck in a Thin U profile, a jatoba fingerboard with the signature flag inlays and 22 extra-jumbo frets — everything for confident bends and vibrato.
Tune-O-Matic and Drive-Ready
The Tune-O-Matic bridge with stop bar is the pairing proven over decades for tight attack and deep sustain. Black hardware and LTD tuners complete the look, and the singing 24.75" scale makes bends easy and pleasant. Factory-strung with D'Addario XL110 (10–46).

Who It's For

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the EC-256 differ from the pricier EC models?
The same classic shape, set neck and binding, but with ESP Designed pickups instead of Seymour Duncan/EMG and a jatoba fingerboard instead of ebony — the smartest entry into the EC series.
What does the push-pull on the tone control do?
It splits the humbucker coils: pull the knob and get chiming single-coil tones for clean parts.
What is jatoba on the fingerboard?
A dense Brazilian hardwood with a warm hue and smooth feel — a modern alternative to rosewood, common on ESP/LTD instruments.
How does the EC-256 differ from the LTD EC-Black Metal?
Both are Eclipse-shaped. The EC-Black Metal is a specialized all-black instrument with a single Seymour Duncan and stainless frets for extreme metal; the EC-256 is a versatile classic single-cut with two pickups and a coil split for any style.
Is a gig bag included?
No, the package includes the guitar and adjustment wrenches. A gig bag can be selected separately.
What is the warranty?
12 months on electronic and mechanical components.
