ESP LTD M-1001 Lefty Guitar Charcoal Metallic Satin

ESP LTD M-1001 Lefty Guitar Charcoal Metallic Satin

The M-1001 Lefty delivers a compact, fast-playing platform with a satin-finished neck that feels naturally smooth under the hand. Built around an extra-thin U-shaped maple neck and 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, this guitar prioritizes speed and precision for left-handed players who demand professional-grade hardware and active electronics. The Charcoal Metallic Satin finish provides a refined, subdued aesthetic while the reverse headstock design completes the purposeful appearance.

Playability & Feel

The 25.5" scale length combined with the 43mm locking nut ensures stable tuning and quick string changes, while the 300-400mm compound fingerboard radius with bound Macassar ebony and offset mother-of-pearl inlays provides both ergonomic comfort and visual distinction. The satin-backed neck resists hand fatigue during extended sessions, making this guitar equally comfortable for studio work or gigging.

Tone & Electronics

The Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker Ceramic Gold active pickup delivers articulate, high-output tones with push/pull voice selection via the single volume control, allowing quick tonal shaping without additional knobs. Paired with the Floyd Rose 1000 double-locking tremolo in gold hardware and Grover tuners, this configuration maintains pitch stability while supporting aggressive playing techniques and extended tremolo work.
