Overview
Guitars in the LTD 1000 Series are designed to offer the tone, feel, looks, and quality that working professional musicians need in an instrument. The EC-1000 Baritone is the extended range guitar you've always wanted, delivering the single-cutaway Eclipse shape in a 27" baritone scale. Typically tuned a fourth below standard, from B to B, this is the six-string guitar that lets you explore the downtuned sounds of modern rock and metal while still maintaining ideal string tension. Its darkly minimalist design pairs black single-ply binding and a Macassar ebony fingerboard with no inlays, except for the glow-in-the-dark Luminlay side dots. The EC-1000 Baritone features 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, a TonePros locking TOM bridge with string-thru-body, and powerful tones from a set of direct-mount Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker active pickups (alnico in the neck and ceramic in the bridge), with push-pull control to select voicings and black nickel covers.

I purchased this guitar a little before Christmas Day for my son. It was here in less than 3 days. Lightning fast shipping right off the bat. Sadly, the EC came in with some damage in the pickup cavity, making adjustments nigh impossible. I contacted zZounds about it, and they had a new one in my hands in the same time frame, less than 3 days. Believe me when I say they customer service is the best I have ever encountered. As for the EC-1000B, it's an absolute metal monster. This thing roars. It was basically setup out of the box, I just had to tweak the action a little, and it was time to chug. And boy howdy, does this thing chug. I put it down to Drop A, and lord have mercy.... the tones off of this thing should be illegal. It's a killer guitar. If you're sitting on the fence on purchasing it, just buy it. You WILL not regret it.
