ESP's LTD Phoenix-1000 model is an elegant offset guitar made purely for rock and metal. This particular limited edition model features a stylish Vintage White finish and gold hardware for a classy old-school look, yet still comes equipped with modern-voiced Seymour Duncan pickups and high-quality Tonepros hardware to meet the demands of contemporary players.
Neck-Thru Construction
The LTD Phoenix-1000 is built around a thick Mahogany body that yields deep and focused lows with a harmonically-rich mid-range. Featuring a subtle yet effective belly cut, the Phoenix-1000 feels comfortable against your body in sitting and standing positions.
Paired with a neck-thru Mahogany neck, this type of construction gives the Phoenix-1000 piano-like sustain and provides fantastic access to its upper frets via the scultped heel. Adorned with a silky smooth Macassar Ebony fingerboard, you can effortlessly glide up and down the neck - especially with its sleek "Thin U" profile.
Seymour Duncan Pickups
The Phoenix-1000 offers excellent sonic variety with its set of passive Seymour Duncan pickups: a P90-style Phat Cat in the neck position, and a high-output Custom in the bridge that can be split via a push-pull control. A truly versatile configuration, the Phoenix-1000 can cover a lot of musical territory.
