SP Luthier Notes: This instrument has been carefully inspected and, if necessary, serviced by our certified luthier to ensure it is in excellent playing condition.
Unleash high-octane performance and aggressive style with the LTD EC-1000! Tipping the scales at a lightweight 6 lbs 12 oz, this rock and metal staple features set-thru construction pairing a mahogany body with a fast 3-piece mahogany neck for seamless upper-fret access and incredible sustain. The Macassar ebony fingerboard is fitted with a 350mm radius, 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, and a comfortable Thin U neck contour designed for high-speed playability. Dressed in a sleek Vintage Black finish accented by striking gold hardware, it comes loaded with active EMG 60 (neck) and EMG 81 (bridge) humbuckers to deliver razor-sharp rhythm crunch and blistering lead articulation. Complete with a TonePros locking Tune-O-Matic bridge and tailpiece, LTD locking tuners, and a Reunion Blues premium gig bag, this EC-1000 is an absolute stage-ready machine.
From ESP Guitars
Guitars in the LTD EC-1000 Series are designed to offer the tone, feel, looks, and quality that working professional musicians need in an instrument, along with the pricing that typical musicians can still afford. The EC-1000 VB is consistently one of the most popular guitars due to its combination of incredible looks and great performance. It offers a vintage looking body/neck/headstock binding and gold hardware, and includes premier components like LTD locking tuners, a TonePros locking TOM bridge and tailpiece, and the aggressive punch of active EMG 81/60 pickups. It also offers set-thru construction with a mahogany body, 3 pc. mahogany neck, and 24-fret Macassar ebony fingerboard. Available in Vintage Black finish.
