    NOTE: Due to ongoing challenges in the global supply chain, instruments purchased from ShopESP that are not currently in stock may take an extended time frame to be delivered.

    Guitars in the LTD EC-1000 Series are designed to offer the tone, feel, looks, and quality that working professional musicians need in an instrument, along with the pricing that typical musicians can still afford. The EC-1000FM has all of the classy LTD Deluxe features that set it apart from other guitars in its range, such as abalone inlays and purfling, full body/neck/headstock binding, and premier components like LTD locking tuners, a Tonepros locking TOM bridge and tailpiece, and classic Seymour Duncan JB/’59 passive pickups. It also offers set-thru construction with a mahogany body, a flamed maple top, 3 pc. mahogany neck, and 24-fret macassar ebony fingerboard. Available in Amber Sunburst finish.

    I've had the EC-1000 Amber Sunburst for a few months now and I really like it.

      I just bought an EC-1000 Amber Sunburst and a GH-600. Both used but un-played. I thought that at the price they would be serviceable instruments for gigs where I did not want to risk other more expensive instruments. 

      I own a raft of vintage and custom guitars. These two LTD models DEFINITELY hold their own. The more I play them, the more I like them.

       

      Question: I see in the specs that the EC-1000 should have a push-pull pot in the tone position. The one I bought does not.

      I am fairly certain that it is bone stock. It may have never been played. Screws in the back are un-marred.

      Was this model ever sold without the push-pull pot?

       

      Doesn't really matter. It sounds fantastic but I am curious. 

       

      Cheers!

        My 2004 came with no coil split/tap. But, that was 20 years ago.

            Any chance of getting this Amber Sunburst EC-1000 with a Piezo in the future? Or just the black and blue models for now?

                  This is no longer available in left handed.  You can use our guitar finder to filter on current left handed models
