Product Description

The ESP LTD EC-1000 Candy Apple Red Satin is a sleek, modern single-cut built for players who demand crushing metal tones, slick playability and rock-solid tuning stability. With its set-thru mahogany construction, ultra-fast Thin U neck and cutting-edge Seymour Duncan Mortal Coil 3-Voice active humbuckers, this EC-1000 is ready for tight rhythm work, fluid leads and everything in between.

Finished in a striking Candy Apple Red Satin with matching headstock and black hardware, it looks every bit as aggressive as it sounds. Stainless steel frets, locking hardware and a TonePros locking TOM bridge keep things precise and reliable, while the versatile 3-voice pickup system lets you flip from saturated high-gain to articulate cleans at the pull of a knob.

Whether you are chugging in low tunings, playing technical riffs or delivering soaring solos, the EC-1000 Candy Apple Red Satin gives you the feel and response you need, night after night.

Seymour Duncan Mortal Coil 3-Voice Active Humbuckers

The EC-1000 Candy Apple Red Satin is loaded with Seymour Duncan Mortal Coil 3-Voice active humbuckers in the neck and bridge positions. These direct-mount pickups offer three distinct voices, accessed via the push/pull volume and tone controls, so you can move from tight, percussive high-gain to more open, dynamic textures without changing guitars. The active design keeps your signal powerful and noise-free, ideal for modern metal and high-gain rock.

Fast Thin U Neck and Macassar Ebony Fingerboard

A 3-piece mahogany neck with ESPs Thin U profile delivers a fast, comfortable feel that suits rapid riffing and intricate lead work. The Macassar ebony fingerboard adds snap and clarity to your tone while providing a smooth, dense playing surface. Combined with a 350 mm radius and 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, bends feel effortless and complex chords remain clear across the neck.

Set-Thru Mahogany Construction

The set-thru neck construction and mahogany body work together for excellent sustain and a rich, full-bodied sound. Set-thru builds offer the upper-fret access of a neck-thru with the punch and familiarity of a set-neck, giving you a responsive instrument that sings on leads and stays tight under heavy palm-muted riffs.

Locking Hardware and TonePros Bridge

With LTD locking tuners and a TonePros locking Tune-o-Matic bridge and tailpiece, the EC-1000 Candy Apple Red Satin is engineered for stability. The locking design helps keep your tuning solid through aggressive playing and frequent string changes, while the TonePros bridge enhances sustain and ensures precise intonation for accurate performance on stage and in the studio.

Features
  • Seymour Duncan Mortal Coil 3-Voice Active Humbuckers - High-output active pickups with three selectable voices give you a wide tonal palette from tight, modern metal to more open, expressive sounds, all with low noise and consistent clarity.
  • Thin U Neck with Macassar Ebony Fingerboard - The slim Thin U profile and smooth ebony board make fast runs, big bends and complex chords feel effortless, helping you play at your best for longer sessions.
  • Set-Thru Mahogany Neck and Body - Set-thru construction and mahogany tonewoods provide long, singing sustain and a powerful midrange punch that cuts through a dense mix.
  • Locking Tuners and TonePros Locking TOM - LTD locking tuners and a TonePros locking Tune-o-Matic bridge and tailpiece work together for excellent tuning stability and reliable intonation under heavy playing.
