ESP is the abbreviation for Electric Sound Products. There is one guitar company, and it has two names. They are ESP and LTD. However, they are the same company, but each abbreviation sells something different in the company. They both do sell guitars, but each of them sells to a different type of client. ESP began selling, and the client could decide how the guitar would be made.

However, the LTD part of the company makes cheaper guitars for those who do not want to spend a lot of money on a guitar. This allows the same company to sell guitars to different types of clients. The company can be found in the state of California.
