ESP LTD PHOENIX-1000 Electric Guitar. Quilted Maple See Thru Black Sunburst

The LTD Phoenix-1000 combines exceptional craftsmanship, tonal versatility, and stunning aesthetics, making it a standout addition to the LTD 1000 Series. Designed for professional musicians, the Phoenix-1000 features the smooth, flowing curves of its distinctive body shape and a luxurious quilted maple top in a See Thru Black Sunburst finish that showcases the wood’s natural grain.

With neck-thru-body construction, this guitar ensures outstanding sustain and stability, combining a three-piece mahogany neck with mahogany body wings. The body, neck, and reversed headstock are all accented by elegant white binding, while the Macassar ebony fingerboard includes 22 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets and ESP flag inlays for a sleek, modern look.

This guitar’s sound is driven by a custom-spec’d set of Seymour Duncan pickups with nickel covers: a Phat Cat in the neck position, offering P-90 growl and bite in a humbucker-sized format, and a ceramic Custom in the bridge position for overwound P.A.F.-inspired tones. The bridge pickup is splittable to single-coil via a push-pull control on the tone knob, allowing for a wide range of sonic options. Additional pro features include a TonePros locking TOM bridge and tailpiece and LTD locking tuners for exceptional tuning stability and precise intonation.
