Description
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.
