ESP LTD M-1000 Electric Guitar Snow White B-Stock
Description
ESP LTD M-1000 Electric Guitar Snow White
The M-1000 is engineered for studio tracking and mix-ready performance, with neck-thru construction and an extra-thin "U" profile neck delivering fast response and precise control. The sustained resonance and high-fret accessibility make this instrument ideal for layered arrangements and technical tracking work, while the striking Snow White finish photographs cleanly for album artwork and social media.
Recording & Performance
Neck-thru design ensures maximum sustain and seamless upper-fret access for complex arrangements and overdub work. The 3-piece maple neck paired with an alder body produces balanced resonance with solid punch through busy mixes, while the satin-finished back enables hours of comfortable recording sessions without fatigue. The Macassar ebony fingerboard with compound radius (300-400mm) and 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets handles both smooth lead articulation and aggressive bending without fret buzz across the full frequency range.
Tonal Versatility & Recording Electronics
Direct-mount Fishman Fluence Modern Humbuckers provide dual-voice capability—alnico in the neck for warm, articulate tones that sit cleanly in the mix, ceramic in the bridge for aggressive punch that cuts through dense arrangements. The push-pull coil-split control on the tone pot unlocks four distinct voicings from a single pickup configuration, allowing you to capture multiple tonal characters within a single session without re-recording or mic re-positioning.
