Review ESP LTD EC-1000 Deluxe
 
 
 

Review by subzero3009 on 17.12.2006




I played it in a guitar shop. I didnt buy it though, it was listed at 899.99 in the store though.

 
 
  Features  
 
It doesnt have really that many weak points, just the strings on it were horrible. It had two seymour duncans in it. Here are the exact specs so you know what it is exactly:

Genuine EMG 81 pickups (Seymour Duncan JB/59s on amber sunburst model)
24-3/4" set neck
Mahogany neck
Rosewood fretboard
Abalone flags plus the model name at the 12th fret
TonePros locking bridge

The one i played was the amber sunburst.

 
 
 
  Playability  
 
Good playing. The strings on it sucked really bad though so that brough down the feel. It felt great though even with the old garbage feeling strings. I played an Ibanez (not sure what model), an LTD M-50, LTD M-100. This one was the best for metal.
 
 
 
  Quality  
 
Sound quality was high output, very nice, good sound. It didnt generate noise, pretty good. I played it through a Peavy XXX. It performed actually better then the Fender American Series Stratocaster and Telecasters.
 
 
 
  Durability  
 
It wasnnullt really heavy, good feel. It was pretty reliable, high output. It didnt need much for tuning, but i didnt play it but so long. It would be amazing for a gig if it had new strings on it.
 
 
 
  Overall  
 
I would buy this product for sure again. I played the one with EMGnulls also. That was a regular ESP LTD EC-1000 though. I would recommend this product for anybody who loves to play rock, metal, or any kind of music.
