It's not just a pretty guitar though. The ESP LTD EC-1000 is a dependable, high-performance workhorse that comes equipped with a host of premium features; allowing you to maximise your musical performances.

Key Features

  • Mahogany Body — Provides a rich and deep sonic foundation for the pickups.
  • 3-Piece Mahogany Neck — Layered neck design improves strength for exceptional tuning stability.
  • Set-Through Construction — Yields massive sustain and enables smooth, unhindered access to the higher frets; especially with the contoured heel and cutaway.
  • Thin "U" Neck Profile — Lean shape is suited for performance-minded players who prioritise both comfort and speed.
  • X-Jumbo Stainless Steel Frets — Resistant to corrosion for life-long performance. Wide and tall fret-wire provides a quick response and effortless articulation when playing chords or single notes.
  • EMG Active Humbuckers — A powerful and versatile pickup set; combining the sheer aggression of the legendary EMG 81 (in the bridge position) with the smooth, punchy tone of the coil-splittable 60TW-R mounted at the neck.
  • TonePros Bridge & Tailpiece — Locking design prevents these parts from falling off of the instrument when removing the strings, and guarantees better contact with the body for increased sustain and resonance.
  • LTD Locking Tuners — Ergonomic machine heads cut down string-changing time and improve tuning stability, as less string winds are required around their tuning posts.

More info about this Product

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.
