ESP LTD SN-1000HT/QM DARK BROWN SUNBURST guitar

ESP LTD SN-1000HT/QM Dark Brown Sunburst

The SN-1000HT/QM is built to deliver on stage and in the hands of serious players. Its thin U-profile neck cuts fatigue during long sets, and the carefully voiced Seymour Duncan pickup pairing gives you the tonal bandwidth to hold your own in any room—from tight clubs to festival stages. The quilted maple top and dark brown sunburst finish command attention under stage lights, while the swamp ash body underneath ensures the resonance stays alive no matter how hard you push it.

Playability & Feel

The 3-piece roasted maple neck with satin finish shrugs off the sweat and moisture of live work, and the thin U shape lets you move through chord changes and lead lines without thinking about your hand position. The 24-fret macassar ebony fingerboard with 11.81"-15.74" compound radius stays locked in across the full range—crucial when you're running through a gig without stopping to tune. Extra jumbo stainless steel frets mean consistent feel under your fingers night after night, and the sustain holds solid whether you're bending on the 3rd fret or screaming at the 24th.

Tone & Electronics

The Seymour Duncan APH-1N humbucker in the neck position gives you warm, articulate response that stays defined even in a mix, while the Seymour Duncan Custom 14 at the bridge packs the output and cut you need for lead work and rhythm definition. The push/pull voice select switch on the tone control opens up additional tonal flexibility without adding complexity to your setup, and the 3-way blade pickup switch lets you dial between neck and bridge instantly—no fumbling mid-song.
