ESP LTD H-1001 QM STBLK

The H-1001 electric guitars with their characteristic body shape with long pointed cutaways are part of the LTD Deluxe series. Their tone, design, workmanship and playing characteristics are fully consistent with professional instruments. They represent a good choice for players looking for a guitar that represents them with dignity in terms of sound and design.

The mahogany body of the H-1001 QM STBLK is adorned with a spectacular flame maple top veneer. A three-piece maple 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 an Ebony Macassar fingerboard fitted with twenty-four Extra Jumbo frets. Orientation around its surface is facilitated by offset position markers.

Two passive humbuckers from the respected Seymour Duncan brand give the guitar the necessary sonic drive and great articulation - making the instrument suitable for a wide range of musical genres. Volume potentiometers, a tone shield and a three-position pickup switch are used to adjust the sound. The Push/Pull tone shutter function allows you to split the pickup coils and change the character of the humbuckers to single-coil in seconds.

Strings are mounted in the company's quality locking mechanisms and in a solid Hipshot headstock with string anchoring through the body. The stylish look of the instrument is accentuated by the impressive See Thru Black color finish and black hardware.

ESP has been making electric guitars since 1984 and count Kirk Hammett, James Hetfield, Ronnie Wood and Max Cavalera among its satisfied customers. Due to the popularity of these instruments, a subsidiary company, LTD, was created 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.
