LTD LK-600 Luke Kilpatrick Signature Electric Guitar

The LTD LK-600 is the official Signature Series guitar of Luke Kilpatrick, guitarist for Australian metalcore heavyweights Parkway Drive. Based on the iconic ESP Horizon shape, this neck-through-body powerhouse is built to withstand the demands of the most brutal modern metal performances, both on stage and in the studio.

Featuring a resonant mahogany body with a maple cap, the LK-600 delivers massive sustain, tight low end, and cutting articulation. Its three-piece maple Thin U neck provides speed and stability, while the luxurious Macassar ebony fretboard offers a smooth, fast feel under the fingers. A custom Parkway Drive artist logo at the 12th fret completes the signature aesthetic.

At its core, the LK-600 is driven by the legendary EMG 60 (neck) and EMG 81 (bridge) active pickup combination, finished in brushed black chrome covers. This pairing delivers crushing rhythm tones, tight palm-muted chugs, and searing lead clarity — perfect for metalcore, hardcore, and modern heavy styles.

Rock-solid hardware includes a TonePros locking Tune-O-Matic bridge with string-thru-body construction for enhanced sustain and tuning stability, along with LTD locking tuners to keep everything locked in during aggressive playing. Finished in stealthy matte black with black nickel hardware, the LK-600 looks every bit as serious as it sounds.
