Description
Sound & Tone
Mahogany body and 3-piece set-thru mahogany neck give this EC-1000 a thick, sustaining midrange, while the Macassar ebony fingerboard and 24.75" scale keep attack tight and note definition clear. The Fishman Fluence Modern 3-Voice humbuckers cover a lot of ground, with the ceramic bridge pickup pushing punchy crunch and dense saturation and the alnico neck offering warmer, rounder lead tones, all without passive hum. It suits hard rock and metal rhythm work and legato lead playing, and the noise-free, wide-dynamic voicing translates well to both stage and recording.
ESP LTD EC-1000 Pearl White Electric Guitar
The EC-1000 is a stage-ready workhorse that feels at home in your hands night after night. Its set-thru mahogany neck and 24.75" scale deliver the responsive, stable platform gigging musicians rely on—natural ergonomics, fast neck feel, and the kind of sustain and tuning hold that survives long sets and road travel. Built for players who need professional-grade hardware and pickup technology to keep up with demanding live work.
Playability & Construction
The 3-piece mahogany set-thru neck locks in superior sustain and neck stability through night-to-night use, while the 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets on a 350mm fingerboard radius let you nail precise intonation and comfortable string bending across the entire neck. LTD locking tuners and a TonePros locking TOM-style bridge and tailpiece keep you in tune through extended gigs and aggressive playing styles, night after night.
Tone & Electronics
The Fishman Fluence Modern 3-Voice Humbuckers — with ceramic bridge and alnico neck pickups — cut through a live mix with articulate, detailed tones that range from punchy crunch to thick saturation, all without hum. These active-voiced pickups respond cleanly across a wide dynamic range, staying focused whether you're crushing rhythm in a loud room or trading solos under stage lights.
