From Sweetwater:
Bassists looking to step into the range of next-level instruments without the hefty price tag should look no further than the ESP LTD B-205. This bass has a stunning natural satin-finished spalted maple top on an ergonomic ash body for a warm and cutting tone, good stage looks, and all-night comfort. A bolt-on 5-piece maple/jatoba neck with ESP's Extra-Thin "U" profile and jatoba fingerboard give the LTD B-205 a solid response and effortless playability. With two humbucking pickups with active EQ, a stable string-through bridge, and moody black nickel hardware, the ESP LTD B-205 5-string Bass delivers high-end features at an affordable price.
ESP electronics have a sound that delivers for modern rock, metal, and fusion, and the LTD B-205 5-string stays true to this reputation. Onboard SB-5 neck and bridge humbuckers give this bass fairly moderate output with low noise for clean stage amplification and accurate studio sound reproduction. A powerful 3-band active EQ section provides diverse tone-shaping options to help your groove find its place in a mix. Sweetwater ensemble players love the LTD B-205's power to cut through and be heard!
The LTD-205 bass boasts a spalted maple top and headcap, normally found on more expensive instruments, along with cool black nickel hardware that really contrasts nicely with the stunning maple cap.
