What is the ESP LTD D-6?
The ESP LTD D-6 is a professional 6-string electric bass featuring a neck-thru-body design and a merbau body. Equipped with ESP Designed SB-6 pickups and an active ABQ-3 3-band EQ, it delivers massive sustain and precise tonal control. Known for its 7-piece maple/jatoba neck and Natural Satin finish, it is a premier choice for bassists in the UAE seeking a reliable, extended-range instrument for studio and stage. Available at Gigstore.
The ESP LTD D-6 is engineered for bassists who need the versatility of six strings combined with boutique-level construction. Available at Gigstore, this model features a neck-thru-body construction, a premium design choice that maximizes sustain and provides effortless access to the highest frets. The merbau body offers a unique, dark aesthetic and a rich, punchy tonal foundation that stands out in both live mixes and studio recordings across Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
The 7-piece maple/jatoba neck is specifically designed to handle the increased tension of six strings, ensuring long-term stability and a thin-U profile that remains comfortable for fast technical playing. The Natural Satin finish provides a smooth, fast feel and highlights the organic grain of the exotic tonewoods, making the LTD D-6 as visually striking as it is sonically powerful.
The LTD D-6 is powered by a pair of ESP Designed SB-6 humbucking pickups, which are specifically voiced to capture the full frequency range of a 6-string bass—from the deep growl of the low B to the crisp clarity of the high C. The onboard ABQ-3 active 3-band EQ allows you to boost or cut lows, mids, and highs with precision, giving you total command over your sound. The LTD BB-606 bridge with string-thru-body options further enhances the instrument's resonance and tuning stability.

Do I need a special amplifier for a 6-string bass?
While you can use a standard bass amp, 6-string basses benefit from high-headroom amplifiers and cabinets with 10-inch or 15-inch speakers that can accurately reproduce the very low B string without distorting.
Does the active EQ require a battery?
Yes, the ABQ-3 preamp is powered by a 9V battery. The battery is only engaged when a cable is plugged into the bass, so we recommend unplugging your instrument when not in use to preserve battery life.
Is the neck profile too wide for small hands?
While 6-string necks are wider than 4-string necks, the LTD D-6 features a "Thin U" profile that is specifically designed to minimize fatigue and make reaching all strings much easier for most players.
