The LTD 1000 series guitars are designed to provide the tone, feel, appearance, and quality that professional musicians need in an instrument, and the LTD EC-1000 has consistently ranked among the most popular guitar models in the world for the past 20 years. It offers a high-quality single cutaway guitar shape, designed for serious musicians, at a price that everyone can afford. The “T” in EC-1000T stands for “traditional,” which invokes its full-thickness body, without cuts on the belly, but is chambered for weight relief and comfortable play during long performances and recording sessions. It features a flamed maple top on its mahogany body, with a three-piece mahogany neck and Macassar ebony fingerboard. The EC-1000T gets its tone from a set of passive Seymour Duncan Sentient (neck) and Pegasus (bridge) pickups, which can be split via a push-pull control, for stunning tones for metal, rock, fusion, progressive, and other genres. It includes flag inlays, binding for the entire body/neck/headstock, and high-quality components such as LTD locking tuners and a TonePros locking TOM bridge and tailpiece. Available in Black Natural Burst finish.
