Mahogany Singlecut with Active EMGs

Cut from the same cloth as one of industry's best-selling high-gain singlecuts, the EC-1000, is the ESP LTD EC-400. This high-performance hardbody comes with active EMG humbuckers set in an all-mahogany configuration, ready to unleash decades of great tone upon your listeners. The Thin "U" 3-piece mahogany neck with pau ferro fingerboard plays effortlessly up and down all 24 jumbo frets, featuring a thru-neck construction to maximize resonance and sustain. You also get a TOM bridge and tailpiece and Grover tuners for rock-solid reliable tuning and intonation. Looking for a great-playing rock singlecut that hits all the right notes? Be sure to check out the ESP LTD EC-400 from Sweetwater.

Classic looks with modern performance

Nothing screams hard rock like ESP's timeless Eclipse body style. Though based on the iconic single-cutaway guitars of the past, its modern lines prepare it for today's players. the extra mass of this single-cutaway design gives the Eclipse EC-400 truly epic sustain, whereas its slightly arched top provides you with comfortable hand positioning no matter your picking style. Add to that a super-sharp cutaway, which gives you open access to the Eclipse EC-400's upper frets, and you've got complete playing freedom.

Clear-sounding EMG active humbuckers

Hard rockers and aggressive players have turned to EMG active pickups for years for their powerful output, exceptional dynamic response, and reliable performance. You get EMG 60 and EMG 81 humbucking pickups in the Eclipse EC-400, ready to sound as clean or as mean as your style calls for. Though EMGs are often known for metal guitar tones, this combination adds a bell-like quality to the guitar's top end, pulling the most from your clean tones as well.
