ESP LTD guitars with the M (Mirage) designation are easily identified by their flat top body and pointed headstock with 6-in-line mechanics. The construction of the M-1000 BP PRNB consists of alder body wings, a spectacular Burled Poplar top veneer and a three-piece maple neck. Twenty-four Extra Jumbo frets divide the Ebony Macassar fingerboard surface. Orientation on its surface is facilitated by offset position dots.
Two active EMG humbuckers provide the instrument's sound with the necessary fullness and precise articulation for singing solos or chord breakdowns, as well as density and aggression for ultra-fast guitar shred and sharply chiseled rock and metal riffs. Controls in the form of a volume potentiometer, tone shutter and three-position pickup switch offer complete control over the sound of the pickups. Additionally, the push/pull function of the controls allows you to split the coils of both pickups to combine the humbucker sound with a single-coil or set a pure single-coil character.
The strings are mounted in high-quality Grover drives and a Floyd Rose 1000SE double-turn tremolo to add impressive sound effects to your playing. Locks on the zero fret ensure maximum tuning stability even with frequent use of the lever. The stylish look of the instrument is underlined by the impressive Purple Natural Burst finish and black hardware.
ESP has been manufacturing electric guitars since 1984 and its satisfied customers include Kirk Hammett, James Hetfield, Ronnie Wood and Max Cavalera. 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.
