Classically styled high speed guitar with modern handling.
As a modern shredding guitar, the ESP LTD SN-1000HT Fire Blast combines a sensational design of classic origin with excellent handling and modern sounds. Besides the sandblasted swamp ash body, the agile electric guitar features a bolt-on roasted maple neck in "Thin and Profile and a Macassar ebony fingerboard with scalloping and stainless steel fretboard. The electric sound conversion is also handled by Fishman Fluence Modern Humbuckers, which promise an enormous variety of sounds with two voicings. Last but not least, a Hipshot bridge and LTD Locking tuners complete ESP's LTD SN-1000HT Fire Blast.
The ESP LTD SN-1000HT Fire Blast is a traditionally designed high-speed guitar that meets modern demands for sound and playing comfort thanks to well thought-out detail solutions.
The classically styled sandblasted swamp ash body and shred-friendly neck are bolted together.
First-class playing characteristics, traditional design
When designing the LTD SN-1000HT Fire Blast, ESP pays special attention to the ideal combination of a tradition-conscious design and modern playing characteristics. While the lightweight swamp ash body has a unique texture due to sandblasting, the traditional comfort shapings promise first-class handling on both the strap and the thigh. The bolt-on Roasted Maple neck creates excellent conditions for unhindered high-speed playing from the lowest to the highest register with its "Thin U" profile and Macassar Ebony fingerboard, which features scalloping from the 17th to 22nd frets in addition to the compound radius. The stainless steel fretting in extra jumbo format also makes any bending, no matter how wide, glide as if on rails.
Active Fishman Fluence Modern pickups with two characterful voicings promise a rich tonal palette.
Diverse sound through Fishman Fluence pickups
As pickup for the LTD SN-1000HT Fire Blast guitar ESP chooses a Set of the trendy Fishman Fluence Modern active humbuckers, which offers a wide range of top-class guitar sounds with two distinct voicings. The bridge-mounted Fishman Fluence Modern Ceramic pickup promises a contemporary high-output tone with tight precision in the first voicing, while the second voicing stands for a more traditional, organic character with rich Attack. In neck position, on the other hand, the first voicing of the Fluence Modern Alnico pickup provides a modern sound with round character and unprecedentedly fine articulation, whereas Voicing 2 offers particularly crisp and clear tones. In addition to the pickup switch, general volume and tone controls are provided for control over the electric guitar.
LTD locking tuners in a classic 6-in-line arrangement keep the LTD SN-1000HT securely in the correct tuning.
Indestructible hardware equipment
The LTD SN-1000HT Fire Blast electric guitar from ESP is completed by hardware equipment that is optimally adapted to modern demands. The popular Hipshot Fixed Bridge on the body with six individual string riders not only guarantees an exact adjustment of intonation and string action even at low tunings, but also supports the lively sound character of the electric guitar through its string-through-body design. Behind the bone nut, LTD Locking tuners also promise not only exact tuning with unshakable stability, but also particularly fast and convenient string changes.
