Singlecut electric guitar with active EMG pickups and Floyd Rose tremolo
With the ESP LTD EC-1000FR Black Satin, the Japanese guitar company sends an electric guitar in the popular Eclipse singlecut style into the race, which turns out to be a hot shredding guitar with powerful EMG pickups and a Floyd Rose tremolo.
The ESP LTD EC-1000FR Black Satin is a chic shredding guitar with hot pickups from EMG and Floyd Rose tremolo.
Set-Thru-Design with fast neck
For the LTD EC-1000FR, ESP relies on a set-thru design with a mahogany body and three-piece mahogany neck that guarantees unobstructed access to the higher registers thanks to the flowing neck foot and wide cutaway. With its slim Thin-U profile and virtually wear-free stainless steel fretboard, the guitar also offers agile playing characteristics for fast solos and tight riffing.
EMG Pickups and Floyd Rose Tremolo
For the adequate shredding sound the ESP LTD EC-1000FR is equipped with two active EMG humbuckers, which really put the amp under steam. While the EMG 81 placed at the bridge brings out every playing detail with laser-sharp mids and high clarity even at maximum gain or drop tunings, the EMG 60 in neck position delivers moderate tones with high transparency for singing leads and sparkling clean sounds. Last but not least, ESP's LTD EC-1000FR Black Satin features a Floyd Rose 1000SE double-locking tremolo with stainless steel screws that invites unrestrained lead acrobatics with the whammy bar thanks to its unwavering tuning stability.
