ESP LTD EC-01FT Olympic White Guitar B-Stock
Description
ESP LTD EC-01FT Olympic White Electric Guitar – B-Stock
The EC-01FT sits in hand like a purpose-built instrument: its thin U-shaped neck contour and 24.75" scale length deliver fast access to every register without sacrificing traditional playing feel. The set-thru mahogany construction and recessed locking bridge lock in sustain and make upper-fret work effortless, whether you're executing articulate single-note lines or anchoring aggressive rhythm sections. The Olympic White finish with brushed matte black pickguard projects presence on stage while the solid, performance-focused design stays invisible—letting the guitar get out of your way and the music speak.
Playability & Construction
The 3-piece mahogany neck with set-thru construction delivers rock-solid stability and seamless upper-fret access for extended runs and wide intervallic leaps, while the Macassar ebony fingerboard with 350mm radius and 22 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets provides a fast, responsive playing surface that rewards both aggressive picking and precision technique. The 43mm nut width gives fretboard breathing room for complex chords and soloing without unwanted thickness in the hand.
Tone & Electronics
The Seymour Duncan Custom 14—an ESP exclusive bridge pickup—cuts through with articulate cleans and powers into aggressive, high-gain saturation while keeping definition locked in. The master volume with push/pull coil-split gives you real-time tonal flexibility for live situations, and the recessed TonePros locking TOM bridge with string-thru body design maximizes resonance and sustain, anchoring everything you play with solid, reliable tone.
