Description
ESP LTD EC-401 Black Electric Guitar B-Stock
The EC-401 delivers a comfortable, fast playing experience with its Thin U neck contour and 24.75" scale that balances traditional feel with modern playability. This B-stock unit arrives in mint, unplayed condition—ESP's quality standards ensure these guitars pass rigorous sonic inspection before leaving the facility, making them virtually indistinguishable from new stock at a significant savings. The mahogany body and set-neck construction produce warm, sustained tones ideal for rock, metal, and blues players seeking a versatile workhorse instrument.
Playability & Construction
Built with a 3-piece mahogany neck and set-thru construction, the EC-401 offers excellent upper-fret access and resonance through the body. The Thin U neck contour, 350mm fingerboard radius, and 42mm nut width create a responsive platform for bending and lead work, while the 24 XJ frets on Pau Ferro fingerboard provide durability and clarity across the entire range.
Tone & Electronics
The active EMG 81 bridge and EMG 60 neck pickups deliver punchy, articulate output with minimal noise—ideal for high-gain applications and studio recording. The Volume/Volume/Tone/Toggle Switch layout grants independent pickup control, and the TOM bridge and tailpiece paired with Grover tuners ensure stable intonation and reliable tuning retention.
