The mahogany body of the EC-1000 VLAND is decorated with a special Violet Andromeda finish with an optical effect, where the colour of the instrument changes depending on the angle of the light. 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 an Ebony Macassar fingerboard fitted with twenty-four Extra Jumbo frets. Orientation around its surface is facilitated by position blocks.
Two active Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers with ceramic and Alnico magnets give the guitar a great dynamic sound (without any accompanying noise) with precise articulation of individual notes/chords and, if needed, a sufficient amount of punch/aggressiveness. The Push/Pull function of the volume control allows you to switch between voicings - so the guitar's sonic arsenal is much wider than it might first appear. A three-position pickup switch completes the controls as standard.
The strings are held in the company's quality locking mechanisms and a solid Tonepros Locking TOM and string bridge.
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 created to offer popular models in an affordable option. Even in the case of ESP-LTD guitars, however, great emphasis is placed on the quality of workmanship and fitted components.
