“If ESP guitars can survive


a Metallica tour, they can
survive anything.”
–James Hetfield

The Truckster is the fifth Hetfield Signature Series model to carry his
name since James and ESP joined forces in 1991. This latest model is
manufactured to the exact specifications of James’ Truckster, a modified
ESP Eclipse-style stage guitar used on the St. Anger tour. It features a
multi-layered finish strategically sanded through and fully distressed to
simulate the original.
