What does B-Stock mean?

B-Stock means this guitar is fully functional with full manufacturer warranty coverage; it has only minor cosmetic imperfections such as small scratches or finish marks that have zero impact on playability, tone, or structural integrity.

Can I use this guitar for genres outside hard rock and metal?

Yes. While optimized for hard rock, metal, rock, and blues, the three selectable voicings per pickup and balanced tonal character make it versatile for studio sessions and other styles. It is not voiced for folk or extreme djent applications.

How do the Fishman Fluence pickups work?

Each pickup (neck and bridge) offers three distinct voicings—selectable via push-pull controls on the volume pots. You can switch between vintage PAF warmth, modern clarity, and crisp single-coil-like articulation without changing pickups.

What neck profile does this guitar have?

The thin U contour combined with a 42mm nut width and 350mm fingerboard radius accommodates a range of hand sizes and playing styles, making it comfortable for extended play and upper-fret access.

Will the tuning stay stable during gigs and long sessions?

Yes. The combination of a set-through mahogany neck, TonePros locking TOM bridge and tailpiece, and LTD locking tuners provides rock-solid tuning stability for both live and studio work.

ESP LTD EC-1000T CTM Guitar Charcoal Burst B-Stock

The ESP LTD EC-1000T CTM is engineered for serious recording and production work, combining a thin U neck contour with set-through mahogany construction that delivers both comfort during long tracking sessions and the structural integrity needed for pristine takes. The full-thickness body and quilted maple cap produce rich sustain and resonance—essential for cutting through dense mixes and maintaining clarity across multiple overdubs.

Recording-Ready Architecture

A three-piece mahogany neck set through the body provides exceptional stability and consistent intonation across tracking, crucial for maintaining phase coherence when layering guitar tracks. The Macassar ebony fingerboard with 22 XJ stainless steel frets offers a fast, responsive playing surface across a 350mm radius, enabling tight, controlled performances in the studio. The 42mm nut width and thin U contour support precise finger placement for articulate recording, while the 24.75" scale length ensures balanced tension and classic tonal character that sits well in the mix.

Studio Versatility & Tone Shaping

Direct-mounted Fishman Fluence Open Core Classic Humbucker pickups deliver three distinct voicings per pickup—selectable via push-pull controls on the neck and bridge volumes—providing the flexibility to dial in everything from vintage-voiced, warm rhythm tones to crisp, articulate lead textures across different song sections and production approaches. TonePros locking TOM bridge and tailpiece combined with LTD locking tuners ensure rock-solid tuning stability session after session, minimizing the need for retakes due to intonation drift.
