ESP LTD EC-01FT Black Electric Guitar B-Stock
The EC-01FT sits naturally in the hands with its thin U-neck contour and 24.75" scale, offering a responsive platform for everything from tight rhythm riffing to fluid lead work. The set-thru mahogany construction delivers solid sustain and resonance that cuts through live mixes, while the recessed locking bridge holds pitch rock-solid during aggressive play. B-stock condition indicates cosmetic wear only—the electronics and hardware function identically to new units.
Playability & Feel
The 3-piece mahogany neck paired with a macassar ebony fingerboard creates a fast, articulate playing surface with real durability for touring and session work. With 22 stainless steel XJ frets, a 350mm fingerboard radius, and a 43mm molded nut, this guitar adapts to a wide range of hand sizes and playing styles without compromise.
Tone & Live Performance
The Seymour Duncan Custom 14 pickup—an ESP exclusive—delivers clear, articulate tones with natural harmonic content that works across rock, metal, and alternative settings on stage. The master volume push/pull control gives you instant access to boost or trim output without reaching for secondary gear, while the recessed TonePros locking TOM bridge with string-thru design maximizes tonal transfer and sustain for consistent performance night to night.
