Key Features
Product Ref: 95133
The EC-1000 is powered by a pair of active EMG pickups, which include an EMG 81 in the bridge position and an EMG 60 in the neck position. The EMG 81 is an intense and incredibly high output pickup, which provides a blistering sound with plenty of high end cut. The EMG 81/60 duo is a match made in rock heaven as the EMG 60 in neck position produces an exceptionally clear sound with harmonic highs and full lows.
Mahogany is a fairly dense tonewood which creates a warm and rich tone with excellent depth. It also offers durability and a tone which will mature over the years, for a long lasting investment. A quilted maple top gives it a stunning and unique 3-dimensional appearance, as well as extending the tonal range. In addition, the ESP LTD EC-1000 Electric Guitar also features a single cutaway, which allows easier access to the higher frets and more flexibility across the whole fingerboard.
ESP guitars are quite possibly the most revered manufacturer of heavy metal electric guitars and basses. ESP and its LTD brand are the first stop for many heavy metal icons, including James Hetfield and Kirk Hammett of Metallica, Jeff Hanneman of Slayer, Jef Kendrick and Mike Spreitzer of Devil Driver as well as some of Rock's most beloved characters like George Lynch and The Rolling Stones' Ron Wood.
