Description ESP USA M-I NTB NT – Ghost Flame With the M-I NTB NT USA, you get a flat-top, streamlined guitar that’s handcrafted in Southern California by the expert luthiers at the ESP USA facility. The “NTB” stands for its neck-thru-body construction at 25.5” scale, providing the stability and sustain you’ve always dreamed of. The “NT” is for non-trem, referring to its recessed TonePros locking TOM bridge with string-thru-body design for excellent sustain and resonance. Other features include a reverse headstock (allowing for ideal string tension in the lower registers), an ebony fingerboard with deluxe mother-of-pearl offset block inlays, and 24 extra-jumbo Jescar stainless steel frets. Components on the M-I NTB NT USA include Gotoh Magnum Lock tuners, Dunlop Straplok buttons, and a bone nut. The M-I NTB NT USA includes a custom ESP USA form-fitting hardshell case, and an official Certificate of Authenticity from ESP.
