A Hot-blooded Rocker That's Ready for Anything
With the ESP LTD Deluxe EC-1001 plugged into your amplifier, you're primed for anything a gig or session can throw at you — from the rootsiest blues to the most primal forms of metal. The Deluxe EC-1001 starts with a resonant mahogany body capped with a gorgeous flamed maple top, paired with a set-through multi-piece mahogany neck to give you eternal sustain and a smooth transition from rhythms to leads. A pair of tri-voiced Fishman Fluence active pickups serves up classic single-coil spank to muscular hot-rodded crunch with the flip of a switch and a tug of a pot. Like many ESPs, the LTD Deluxe EC-1001 is marked for its effortless playability, courtesy of a modern-radius ebony fingerboard and 24 XJ stainless steel frets. Take it from session guitarists at Sweetwater: from chiming cleans to growling high-gain tones, the LTD Deluxe EC-1001 covers some serious tonal territory.
Fluence Open Core Classic pickups offer up endless tonal options
With the LTD Deluxe EC-1001's active Fishman Fluence pickups, you're able to harness several decades of the most sought-after rock and metal tones ever mined. Yours with the tug of a pot are three distinctly different voices for each pickup:
- Neck V1: a clear, vintage-sounding PAF humbucker
- Neck V2: an airy chime with plenty of sweetness
- Neck V3: the quack and spank of a classic single-coil
- Bridge V1: a bridge-position PAF with extra output
- Bridge V2: a muscular, hot-rodded humbucker
- Bridge V3: an overwound single-coil for Texas-style blues to screaming leads
And unlike other wire-wound pickups, Fluence Open Core Classics are able to deliver these classic voicings without noise or inductance issues. Discover for yourself why many guitarists at Sweetwater have trusted our axes to the Fluence system — check out the LTD Deluxe EC-1001.
Eclipse body style blends classic looks with modern performance
Nothing screams hard rock like ESP's LTD Eclipse body style. The extra mass of this single-cutaway design gives the Deluxe EC-1001 truly epic sustain, whereas its slightly arched top provides comfortable hand positioning no matter what your playing style. Add to that a super-sharp cutaway for easy access to all 24 frets, and you're equipped for all manner of rock, metal, and shred tones.
