Overview

The LTD EC-1000 remains one of ESP's most popular guitar series, offering the tone, feel, looks, and quality that working professional musicians need in an instrument, along with the pricing that serious musicians can afford.

With the EC-1000T, musicians get a traditional full-thickness body that is chambered for weight relief, making long live shows less of a strain on your back. It offers set-thru construction for easy access to the higher frets, but one aspect of the EC-1000T is anything but old-school: the EC-1000T is the first production guitar to offer a set of Fishman Fluence Open Core Classic Humbucker pickups with three voicings.

On the neck pickup, Voice 1 offers the coveted vintage P.A.F. tone, Voice 2 is an airy chime, and Voice 3 is a vintage single-coil. For the bridge pickup, Voice 1 is the P.A.F., Voice 2 is the classic hot-rodded humbucker, and Voice 3 is an overwound single coil. The resulting sonic versatility of this guitar is astounding. The EC-1000T also features a mahogany body with a flamed maple top, and an excellent Honey Burst Satin finish.

I really wanted to love this guitar. I don't really have anything bad to say about it, it just wasn't for me. Fit and finish were good except the nut had sharp corners and would snag my hand. Fretwork was good and overall the guitar was put together well. It has nice quality hardware and looked amazing. I liked the Fluence pickups quite a bit but overall the guitar just never felt right to me. I'm more of a superstrat person so I guess this was a lesson learned. Stick with thinner guitars. If you like LP's then definitely give it a serious look though.
