ESP LTD EC-01FT Vintage Burst Electric Guitar B-Stock
The EC-01FT sits comfortably in hand with its fast, responsive neck and set-thru construction—a platform built for extended gigging across blues, rock, metal, and contemporary styles. The solid mahogany body rings with satisfying resonance and punch, while the thin U neck contour and 24.75" scale lock in stability whether you're grinding through club dates, recording takes, or woodshedding at home. This B-Stock unit carries all the tonal character and playability of the standard model at a reduced price point.
Playability & Neck Design
A thin U neck contour paired with a 43mm nut width and 350mm fingerboard radius sits natural under your fretting hand and demands nothing of your technique. The 22 XJ Stainless Steel frets on Macassar Ebony are built to withstand the road, offering smooth articulation and excellent durability through relentless gigging and daily performance.
Tone & Electronics
The Seymour Duncan Custom 14 pickup cuts through stage volume with warm, focused tones and excellent sustain, while the push-pull volume knob flips instantly to single-coil mode when you need brightness and snap. A recessed TonePros TOM bridge with string-thru body design locks in your tuning and maximizes sustain, anchoring heavy rhythm work and articulate lead lines without compromise.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean, and does it affect tone or playability?
B-Stock means this unit has minor cosmetic imperfections—light blemishes and surface wear on the body and headstock—from inventory handling. These marks are purely superficial and have zero impact on tone, playability, or structural integrity; the guitar is fully functional with all original specifications and manufacturer warranty intact.
Is the EC-01FT good for beginners?
Yes. The thin U-neck contour, 43mm nut width, and fast fretboard response make it comfortable for developing players, while the balanced warm tone and excellent sustain reward both beginner and advanced technique. It's equally suited to intermediate and advanced players exploring blues, rock, and metal.
What pickup is included, and can I change the tone?
The Seymour Duncan Custom 14 pickup delivers warm, focused tones with excellent clarity and sustain. The push-pull volume knob lets you instantly split the pickup to single-coil mode, expanding your sonic range without needing a second pickup or rewiring.
How does the bridge design affect sustain and stability?
The recessed TonePros TOM bridge with string-thru body design maximizes sustain and tuning stability by anchoring the strings directly through the body, giving you dependable intonation for both studio tracking and live performance.
What genres and styles is this guitar best suited for?
The EC-01FT excels in blues, rock, metal, and contemporary studio sessions. Its warm, articulate tone and thick lows make it less ideal for jazz and folk, where a brighter or more open tonal character is typically preferred.
Do I pay sales tax on this order?

Marketplaces such as eBay, Reverb and Amazon collect sales tax in nearly every state as marketplace facilitators no matter who the seller is, so the same item at the same price costs less bought direct.
