ESP LTD MH-1000NT Electric Guitar. Flame Maple Charcoal Burst

The LTD MH Series blends design elements from ESP’s H/Horizon models—such as its arched top body—with features from the M/Mirage guitars, like the inline headstock and extra-thin U-shaped neck. The result is a versatile guitar that excels across any style of music. The MH-1000NT features set-thru construction with a 25.5” scale length, providing smooth, fast access to the highest frets. Its mahogany body is topped with flamed maple, finished in a translucent Charcoal Burst that highlights the figured wood grain. White binding on the body, neck, and reversed headstock adds a sharp visual contrast.

The sturdy three-piece maple neck features a slim, fast-playing profile, while the Macassar ebony fingerboard sports offset block inlays and 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets for effortless playability. Black hardware completes the sleek look, including a TonePros locking TOM bridge with string-thru body design, LTD locking tuners, and a pair of direct-mounted Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker active pickups. With ceramic magnets in the bridge and alnico in the neck, both pickups feature push-pull controls to switch voicings, and their black nickel covers perfectly complement the guitar’s aesthetics.

Each pickup offers two distinct voices. The ceramic bridge pickup’s Voice 1 delivers the ultimate high-output tone: crisp, searing crunch, tight low end with no mud, and an aggressive growl. Voice 2 provides a modern passive attack, delivering organic distortion characteristics with dynamic response. The alnico neck pickup’s Voice 1 offers Fishman’s signature active, high-output tone—full, round, and boosted with exceptional articulation. Switch to Voice 2 for a crisp, clean, and fluid neck humbucker tone that’s perfect for soaring leads and smooth rhythm work.
