Description
Sound & Tone
All-mahogany neck-thru construction with a Macassar ebony fingerboard gives this single-cutaway a warm, thick midrange and long sustain, while the 25.5" scale adds tightness and clarity to the low end. The Seymour Duncan Phat Cat in the neck offers rounded, vintage-leaning single-coil cleans for blues and jazz-tinged phrasing, and the Custom humbucker at the bridge pushes into high-output territory for hard rock and metal rhythm and lead work. Coil-splitting the bridge via push-pull opens up thinner, more articulate voicings, making it a workable one-guitar solution for players moving between clean and heavily driven material.
ESP LTD PHOENIX-1000 Lefty Guitar Vintage White B-Stock
The PHOENIX-1000 Lefty delivers a thin U-shaped neck profile that prioritizes speed and ergonomic comfort, making it equally responsive for rhythm work and intricate lead passages. Built with neck-thru construction and premium materials throughout, this left-handed instrument offers the sustain, stability, and tonal versatility demanded by professional players across multiple genres. The Vintage White finish with gold hardware presents a refined aesthetic that stands out both on stage and in the studio.
Construction & Tonal Character
Neck-thru-body design using three-piece mahogany neck and mahogany body wings creates a seamless connection that maximizes sustain and resonance while allowing smooth access to higher frets. The warm, full-bodied mahogany construction pairs with a Macassar ebony fingerboard and 350mm radius to deliver both tonal depth and playability across a wide dynamic range.
Pickups & Hardware
The Seymour Duncan Phat Cat neck pickup provides creamy, vintage-voiced single-coil character, while the Seymour Duncan Custom bridge humbucker delivers high-output aggression with coil-split capability via push-pull control—offering tonal flexibility from articulate cleans to saturated leads. TonePros locking TOM bridge and tailpiece combined with LTD locking tuners ensure rock-solid intonation and tuning stability during demanding performances.
