ESP LTD EC-1000TFM HBS F

The EC-1000 electric guitars with the characteristic rock LP body shape are part of the LTD Deluxe series. Their tone, design, workmanship and playing characteristics fully correspond to professional instruments. They represent a good choice for players looking for a guitar that would represent them with dignity in terms of sound and design.

The mahogany body of the EC-1000TFM HBS F is decorated with a spectacular veneer of flamed maple. It's a solid-bodied guitar with the standard thickness of traditional LP models, but the chambering makes it lighter, which you and your spine will appreciate after extended playing. A three-piece mahogany neck with a set-thru construction, i.e. a neck recessed deeper into the body, and a narrower fast Thin U profile is joined by a Makasar ebony fingerboard fitted with twenty-two Extra Jumbo frets. Orientation around its surface is facilitated by position blocks.

Two active Fishman Fluence Open Core humbuckers not only provide the guitar with awesome dynamics and precise tone articulation, but also, thanks to two Push/Pull drivers, complete sonic versatility. Each humbucker offers three different sonic characters, allowing you to switch between a wide range of musical genres - from jazz/blues and classic rock/hard rock to metal. Two volume potentiometers, a tone shield and a three-position pickup switch are used to make standard adjustments to the guitar tone.

The strings are held in quality locking company mechanics and a solid Tonepros Locking TOM and stringer.

ESP has been making electric guitars since 1984 and satisfied customers include Kirk Hammett, James Hetfield, Ronnie Wood and Max Cavalera. Due to the popularity of these instruments, a subsidiary company, LTD, has been formed to offer popular models in an affordable option. However, even in the case of ESP-LTD guitars, great emphasis is placed on the quality of workmanship and fitted components.
