The ESP LTD EC-1000 in Pearl White is a sleek, modern single cut designed for serious players who demand crushing tones, fast playability and rock-solid tuning stability. With its set-thru mahogany neck, stainless steel frets and Fishman Fluence Modern 3-voice active humbuckers, this is a stage-ready workhorse that covers everything from tight, high-gain metal to articulate cleans and cutting lead tones.
Blending classic looks with thoroughly contemporary hardware, the EC-1000 feels instantly familiar yet completely up to date. The Thin U neck profile and Macassar ebony fingerboard make fast runs and big bends effortless, while the locking bridge and tuners keep things stable under heavy riffing and aggressive playing styles. Finished in a stunning Pearl White with matching headstock and black appointments, it looks every bit as powerful as it sounds.
Modern Metal Tones with Fishman Fluence
At the heart of the EC-1000 are a pair of Fishman Fluence Modern 3-Voice humbuckers, with an Alnico unit in the neck and a Ceramic in the bridge. These pickups deliver tight, noise-free high output tones that excel for modern metal and hard rock, with exceptional note definition even under extreme gain. Thanks to the push/pull controls, you can instantly access three distinct voices, giving you everything from saturated aggression to more open, dynamic sounds without changing guitars.
Fast, Comfortable Neck and Premium Feel
The 3-piece mahogany neck uses ESP’s Thin U profile, giving you a slim, comfortable carve that encourages speed and precision without feeling insubstantial. A Macassar ebony fingerboard with a 350 mm radius and 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets offers a smooth, low-friction surface that is perfect for fast legato, big bends and accurate vibrato. Stainless steel frets are highly resistant to wear, so the guitar will feel slick and consistent for years of regular playing.
Set-Thru Construction for Sustain and Access
Using set-thru construction, the neck is joined deep into the mahogany body, improving sustain and resonance while also allowing superb upper fret access. Combined with the 24.75 inch scale length, you get a familiar single-cut feel with a tight, punchy response that suits riffing and lead work alike. The result is a guitar that rings clearly, feels solid in the hands and responds dynamically to your picking attack.
Stage-Ready Hardware and Striking Aesthetics
A TonePros locking Tune-o-Matic bridge and tailpiece, paired with LTD locking tuners, provide excellent tuning stability and precise intonation adjustment. The Pearl White finish with matching headstock, single-ply black binding and black hardware gives the EC-1000 a bold, high-end look that stands out under stage lights. Every detail is geared towards reliable performance and a professional appearance.
