ESP LTD SN-1000HT Electric Guitar Silver Blast
The ESP LTD SN-1000HT Silver Blast is built for speed and modern high-gain performance, with a thin U-profile roasted maple neck and scalloped upper frets that make fast position shifts effortless. The striking sandblasted Silver Blast finish over swamp ash combines aggressive aesthetics with resonant tone, while the Macassar ebony fingerboard and compound radius fretboard feel smooth under the hand across the entire range. This is a purpose-built instrument for players who demand both visual impact and dependable hardware on stage or in the studio.
Playability & Feel
The thin U neck contour paired with a 25.5" scale length and compound radius delivers speed without sacrificing comfort across different playing styles. Scalloped frets from the 17th to the 22nd fret enhance lead articulation and bending expression, while the roasted maple construction provides excellent stability and a fast, responsive feel that cuts through dense mixes.
Tone & Electronics
Dual Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers—alnico in the neck and ceramic in the bridge—deliver versatile modern tones with 3-voice switching via push/pull controls, letting you dial in everything from tight rhythm definition to fluid, aggressive leads. The Hipshot string-through hardtail bridge enhances sustain and intonation stability, while LTD locking tuners ensure your tuning holds through demanding performances.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean, and will cosmetic imperfections affect playability or tone?
B-Stock indicates the guitar has minor cosmetic marks from showroom or warehouse handling—purely superficial blemishes with zero impact on playability, tone, or structural integrity. You receive a fully functional premium instrument at a significant discount.
Is this guitar suitable for metal and high-gain styles, or can it handle other genres?
The SN-1000HT is purpose-built for metal, hard rock, progressive, and modern high-gain playing with its aggressive electronics and tight rhythm definition. It is not optimized for blues, jazz, or folk styles.
How does the scalloped fretboard affect playability and lead articulation?
Scalloped frets from the 17th to the 22nd fret enhance lead articulation and bending expression by reducing finger friction and allowing more precise pitch control during fast position shifts and aggressive bends.
What is the 3-voice switching on the Fishman Fluence pickups, and how does it work?
The Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers feature three tonal voices selected via push/pull controls, letting you dial in different sonic characters—from tight rhythm definition to fluid, aggressive leads—without swapping pickups or rerecording.
Will the Hipshot hardtail bridge and locking tuners hold tuning through long gigs or studio sessions?
Yes; the Hipshot string-through-body hardtail enhances sustain and intonation stability, while LTD locking tuners ensure tuning stays locked through demanding live performances and extended studio tracking.
