Description
Sound & Tone
The all-mahogany body and neck with set-thru construction give the EC-01FT a thick, sustaining midrange, while the macassar ebony fingerboard and string-thru TonePros bridge tighten up the attack and add clarity to fast passages. The ESP-exclusive Seymour Duncan Custom 14 pushes plenty of output with articulate note separation and natural harmonic bloom, so palm-muted riffs stay defined and leads sing rather than blur. With its 24.75" scale and single-pickup layout with push/pull volume, it leans toward rock, metal, and alternative playing where consistent, focused drive matters more than tonal switching.
ESP LTD EC-01FT Black Electric Guitar B-Stock
The EC-01FT is engineered for studio tracking and live session work, delivering a comfortable, fast-playing experience with its thin U-neck contour and 24.75" scale that adapts seamlessly to rhythm work and lead playing. The set-thru mahogany construction provides solid sustain and resonance for tight, focused recordings, while the recessed locking bridge ensures tuning stability through extended takes. B-stock condition indicates cosmetic wear only—the electronics and hardware function identically to new units.
Playability & Recording Versatility
The 3-piece mahogany neck paired with a macassar ebony fingerboard delivers responsive articulation and reliable durability for hour-long sessions. With 22 stainless steel XJ frets, a 350mm fingerboard radius, and a 43mm molded nut, this guitar accommodates both traditional and modern playing techniques across a wide range of hand sizes, making it ideal for collaborative work or multi-player tracking days.
Tone & Electronics for Mix Integration
The Seymour Duncan Custom 14 pickup—an ESP exclusive—produces clear, articulate tones with natural harmonic content that sits well in dense mixes across rock, metal, and alternative productions. The master volume push/pull control provides quick access to boost or trim output on the fly, while the recessed TonePros locking TOM bridge with string-thru design maximizes tonal transfer and sustain for consistent, predictable recordings.

B-stock indicates the guitar is fully functional with minor cosmetic imperfections—electronics, hardware, and playability are identical to new units. Only the appearance shows signs of handling or display.

Yes. The Seymour Duncan Custom 14 pickup, tight low end, and set-thru mahogany construction are specifically voiced for metal, hard rock, rock, and alternative genres. It is not recommended for jazz, folk, or country playing styles.
What skill level do I need to play this guitar well?
The EC-01FT is rated for intermediate, advanced, and professional players. The thin U-neck and 24.75" scale support both traditional and modern techniques, and the 22 stainless steel XJ frets provide durability for aggressive playing.
How does the master volume push/pull control work?
The push/pull control on the master volume knob lets you quickly boost or trim output on the fly during playing or between takes—useful for dynamic performance or recording flexibility.
What pickup does it use and why is it notable?
It uses the Seymour Duncan Custom 14, an ESP exclusive pickup that produces clear, articulate tones with natural harmonic content and sustained resonance suited to rock and metal styles.
Do I pay sales tax on this order?
Sales tax is collected only on orders shipped to California; orders shipped to any other US state are not charged sales tax at checkout when you buy direct from our website.
