Description
Sound & Tone
All-mahogany construction with a set-thru neck and a string-thru TonePros locking bridge gives the EC-01FT a thick, sustaining voice with a warm low-midrange push, while the Macassar ebony fingerboard and 24.75" scale add attack and clarity to that weight. The Seymour Duncan Custom 14 bridge pickup runs from articulate, defined cleans to saturated high-gain territory without losing note separation, and the push/pull coil-split thins things out for brighter, more open rhythm parts. It suits rock and metal players who need tight, driven rhythm tone and singing leads, with the flat, extra-jumbo stainless frets and 43mm nut supporting fast phrasing and complex chord voicings alike.
ESP LTD EC-01FT Olympic White Electric Guitar – B-Stock
The EC-01FT delivers a fast, comfortable playing experience with its thin U-shaped neck contour and 24.75" scale length that balances familiarity with modern ergonomics. This flat-top single-cutaway combines a set-thru mahogany construction with a recessed locking bridge to maximize sustain and upper-fret access, making it equally capable of articulate leads and driven rhythm work. The Olympic White finish paired with a brushed matte black pickguard creates distinctive visual character without compromising the guitar's serious, performance-oriented architecture.
Playability & Construction
The 3-piece mahogany neck with set-thru construction provides structural stability and seamless upper-fret access, while the Macassar ebony fingerboard with 350mm radius and 22 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets creates a fast, durable playing surface suited to both aggressive and precise technique. A 43mm nut width delivers ample fretboard real estate for complex chording and soloing without feeling oversized.
Recording & Production Tone
The Seymour Duncan Custom 14—an ESP exclusive bridge pickup—covers a wide tonal range from articulate cleans to aggressive, high-gain saturation with impressive clarity, translating directly to recordings that cut through dense mixes or shine on isolated tracks. The master volume with push/pull coil-split expands your session palette on demand, while the recessed TonePros locking TOM bridge with string-thru body design maximizes resonance and sustain across the tonal spectrum, ensuring consistent tracking performance and natural harmonic decay across multiple takes.

As a B-Stock instrument it carries a minor factory cosmetic blemish — a small finish mark with no effect on playability, tone or structure — which is why it sells for less than a first-quality unit. The exact blemish varies from unit to unit, so it is not described or pictured here; photos show the model, not the individual unit. It is new, unplayed and covered by the full manufacturer warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean for this guitar?
B-Stock means the EC-01FT is new and unplayed with full manufacturer warranty, but carries a minor factory cosmetic blemish—such as a small finish mark—that has no effect on playability, tone, or structural integrity. The exact blemish varies by unit and is not pictured, which is why it sells for less than a first-quality instrument.
Is this guitar suitable for metal and high-gain genres?
Yes. The exclusive Seymour Duncan Custom 14 bridge pickup delivers aggressive, high-gain saturation with impressive clarity, and the set-thru mahogany construction maximizes sustain across the tonal spectrum. The 24-fret extra-jumbo stainless steel fingerboard and thin U-shaped neck are designed for fast, precise metal and hard-rock technique.
What does the coil-split feature do?
The master volume features a push/pull coil-split that expands your sonic palette on demand, allowing you to dial in different tonal characteristics without switching guitars or pedals during a performance or recording session.
How does the neck feel, and will it suit my playing style?
The thin U-shaped neck contour with a 43mm nut width balances familiarity with modern ergonomics, offering ample fretboard real estate for complex chording and aggressive soloing. The 24.75-inch scale length and fast Macassar ebony fingerboard with 350mm radius suit both precise technique and high-speed lead work.
What hardware is included, and how does it affect sustain?
The guitar features black LTD locking tuners for tuning stability and a recessed TonePros locking TOM bridge with string-thru body design that maximizes resonance and sustain. It ships with D'Addario XL110 strings (.010–.046).
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. Marketplaces collect sales tax as the facilitator in most states, so the same listed price can cost more there. Buyers remain responsible for any use tax their state applies. Free US shipping and 30-day returns are included.
