ESP LTD Deluxe EC-1000 Fluence Lefty Black Guitar B-Stock
Description
ESP LTD Deluxe EC-1000 Fluence Lefty Black Guitar
This left-handed EC-1000 Fluence Deluxe is built for gigging musicians and collectors who demand reliability on stage and in the studio. The set-thru mahogany construction and bound three-piece neck deliver the sustain and tonal stability that defines ESP's upper-tier solid-body platform. A 24.75" scale and 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets make fast passages and precise intonation across the fingerboard feel natural, even during long sets.
Construction & Hardware
Solid mahogany with set-thru construction ensures this guitar holds tuning and resonance through hours of performance. Gold hardware, multi-ply binding on the body and headstock, and TonePros locking TOM bridge and tailpiece give you the tuning stability and intonation precision a working musician needs. These aren't boutique touches—they're road-tested reliability.
Electronics & Tonal Range
The Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker active pickups (ceramic in bridge, alnico in neck) let you pull everything from articulate, controlled gain to thick, saturated aggression. The toggle switch control allows real-time voicing selection, meaning you can dial in completely different characters mid-set without reaching for another guitar—crucial for players covering multiple genres or musical contexts on a single stage.
