Description
ESP LTD EC-1000 Evertune Dark Brown Sunburst B-Stock
This unplayed EC-1000 Evertune brings ESP's refined upper-tier solidbody design into the recording studio with immediate session utility. The set-thru construction and thin U neck contour translate to fast, precise tracking without fatigue, while the 24.75" scale and 24 XJ stainless steel frets ensure clean articulation and stable intonation across multiple takes. Finished in striking Dark Brown Sunburst, the quilted maple top photographs and captures beautifully under studio lighting—though this B-stock example carries two minor finish blemishes that do not affect playability or structural integrity.
Recording & Tracking Response
The 3-piece mahogany neck resists seasonal movement, critical for consistent session performance, while the Macassar ebony fingerboard with 350mm radius enables smooth articulation and controlled bending for precise overdubs. At 8 lbs 11 oz, the guitar sits comfortably during long takes, and the 42mm molded nut maintains accurate string spacing for consistent recording tone session to session.
Studio Tone & Intonation
The Seymour Duncan JB/Jazz humbucker pair in passive configuration captures articulate highs and focused lows without muddiness, cutting through dense mixes while remaining tonally flexible across genres, while the EverTune bridge eliminates tuning drift from playing dynamics or temperature fluctuations—essential for punch-in sessions and overdub accuracy. Grover tuners and black hardware complete a refined, cohesive aesthetic.
