ESP LTD EC-1000T CTM Electric Guitar – Vintage Gold Satin

Solidbody Electric Guitar with Mahogany Body, Maple Top, Mahogany Neck, Ebony Fingerboard, and 2 Fishman Fluence Active Humbucking Pickups – Vintage Gold Satin

A Traditional Single Cutaway with Near-endless Tones

The ESP LTD EC-1000T CTM is a classic single cutaway with top-level appointments. This axe boasts a traditional full-thickness, maple-topped mahogany body with set-through construction for maximum resonance and sustain. Its 3-piece mahogany neck is capped by a fast-playing, modern-radius Macassar ebony fingerboard. Discerning tone chasers will appreciate this axe’s active Fishman Fluence Open Core Classic Humbucker pickups, which conjure up everything from crystal cleans to overdriven crunch and even molten-hot high gain with equal aplomb. This solidbody electric guitar features a TonePros locking Tune-o-matic bridge/tailpiece and locking LTD tuners to give you precision intonation and stability. Custom multi-ply binding and eye-grabbing gold hardware round out the LTD EC-1000T CTM’s enviable features.

Single-cut body style blends classic looks with modern performance

Nothing screams hard rock like ESP’s LTD Eclipse body style. The extra mass of this full-thickness, single-cutaway design gives the LTD EC-1000T CTM truly epic sustain, whereas its slightly arched top provides comfortable hand positioning no matter what your playing style. Add to that a super-sharp cutaway for easy access to all 22 frets, and you’re equipped for all manner of rock, metal, and shred tones.

Full range of rocking tones courtesy of Fishman

Armed with Fishman Fluence Open Core Classic Humbucker pickups, the ESP LTD EC-1000T CTM yields you three distinct voices capable of practically any humbucker tones imaginable, with a single-coil option for even greater versatility. Voice one is reminiscent of a tried-and-true PAF pickup, complete with the requisite sweetness, warmth, and clear articulation found in many vintage pickups. Kick on the second voice and you’ll be treated to the muscle and girth of a screaming hot-rodded humbucker. The third and newest voicing option offered is that of an overwound single-coil, which boasts an impressively authentic single-coil sound. Best of all, Fishman Fluence humbuckers are noiseless! Their active electronics lets you run hundreds of feet of cable with zero tone loss, with incredibly smooth volume controls. Guitarists are blown away by the range of sounds that can be milked out of the LTD EC-1000T CTM, and we’re confident that you will be, too.

TonePros bridge and LTD locking tuners

Players who are choosy about tuning, action, and intonation will delight in the LTD EC-1000T CTM’s Tune-o-matic-style TonePros bridge/tailpiece and locking LTD tuners. The TonePros is a common aftermarket upgrade on many single-cut guitars. Its six adjustable saddles provide precise intonation and enhanced sustain for chords and leads. At the other end of the guitar, a set of LTD locking tuners provides slip-free performance, for stage and studio tuning stability you can depend on.
