Sound & Tone
The chambered mahogany body with maple cap and 24.75" set-thru construction gives this a warm, resonant midrange core with a slightly airier response than a solid body, while the Macassar ebony fingerboard and stainless frets add snap and clarity to note attack. The Fishman Fluence Open Core Classic humbuckers cover a lot of ground through their three push-pull voicings, moving from articulate, defined cleans to thick, sustaining high-gain tones without the noise of passive designs. It suits rock and metal rhythm and lead work equally well, and the cleaner voicings hold up for blues and more dynamic playing.
ESP LTD EC-1000T CTM FM Guitar Tobacco Sunburst Satin B-Stock
The EC-1000T CTM is built for the stage and the road. Its thin U-shaped neck and chambered mahogany body deliver the comfort and response needed for hours of gigging, while the tobacco sunburst satin finish offers a tactile, non-gloss surface that plays well under stage lighting and won't slip in your hands during a long set. Rock, metal, blues, and beyond—this guitar performs reliably across genres.
Playability & Feel
The 3-piece mahogany neck with thin U-shaped profile cuts fatigue during extended performances, while the 22 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets and 350mm fingerboard radius let you nail both intricate passages and aggressive rhythm work without compromise. A 42mm molded nut provides proper string spacing for solid technique and control night after night.
Tone & Live Stability
The Fishman Fluence Open Core Classic Humbucker pickups with push-pull controls deliver three distinct voicings—sharp articulation for clean passages and gritty sustain for driven tones that cut through a mix. The TonePros locking bridge and tailpiece paired with LTD locking tuners lock in your tuning for the entire set, a non-negotiable for touring and venue reliability.
