    Hi Chase, We have been removing model names from the fingerboard. so  you received our most up to date version (we still have to update our website photo). I think a key thing to getting Metallica's tone is using EMG active pickups and a good quality amp with high gain. You should probably try using some distortion foot pedal or effects on top of your amp. I suggest going on our ESP Forum and you can get more suggestions from our users on getting good tones. good luck.

      Very nice guitar indeed. Question - can the EC-10 fit in the EC Guitar Form-Fit Case (e.g. the one included with the Ltd James Hetfield Iron Cross)?

        Hi Matthew, Yes the EC-10 has the same body perimeter but it is a thinner body without arch. It will fit in this case if you would like a hardshell case.

          Are the EC-50 out of line? And the new EC-10 with hardwood fingerboard as good as the EC-50?

            Hi Vitor, Yes the 50 series have been discontinued. The 10 series are very similar but more affordable. The fingerboard is used as a substitution for rosewood. It is a good alternative and comparable to the EC-50.
