Elevate Your Craft with Aggressive Tone and Extreme Playability

The ESP LTD Deluxe MH-1000 EverTune was built for one specific purpose: to take your playing to a new level. This solidbody electric guitar's mahogany body delivers a massive dose of warmth and sustain. Whether you're chugging on the low frets or burning up high, the LTD Deluxe MH-1000 EverTune's 3-piece maple neck and smooth Macassar ebony fingerboard ensure easy playability. Beyond that, this axe's active EMG pickups give you an endless variety of heavy-hitting sonic textures. The LTD Deluxe MH-1000 EverTune also features set-through construction for long-lasting sustain and excellent articulation, plus an EverTune bridge for steadfast tuning stability and intonation.

Extra Thin "U" neck for excellent control, stability, and playability

Playing the LTD Deluxe MH-1000 EverTune is a treat. Its 3-piece maple neck is cut to a smooth, playable Extra Thin "U" profile. Its 13.7-inch-radius Macassar ebony fingerboard is adorned with 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets — a favorite among players in heavy genres. What's more, offset block inlays give the LTD Deluxe MH-1000 EverTune added visual appeal. The LTD Deluxe MH-1000 EverTune also features a bind-free molded nut.

EMG pickups yield incredible top-end clarity and huge lows

You'll get to know the true personality of the ESP LTD Deluxe MH-1000 EverTune as soon as you plug it in. A set of EMG's 81 and 60 MetalWorks active humbucking pickups offers up a sound that is high output with plenty of top-end clarity and huge lows. These pickups are a favorite among metal players, and Sweetwater sells a ton of them for how well they push amps into tight-sounding distortion. Also, a push-pull tone knob activates coil splitting for the neck pickup, giving you extra tonal versatility.

EverTune bridge keeps you in tune, all gig long

The EverTune bridge on the LTD Deluxe MH-1000 EverTune is an all-mechanical system that helps you stay in tune longer during any playing situation. Small springs keep constant tension on your strings, giving you long-lasting tuning stability, in addition to incredibly accurate intonation. You can also adjust it to control how much your pitch changes when you bend a string. Even if you're playing a long gig or recording session, your tuning will be more stable regardless of your playing style, temperature, or other variables.

  • Solidbody electric guitar with aggressive tone and extreme playability

Very Happy with the guitar AND the bridge!

Like almost every other high end LTD the fit and finish was flawless. All the binding was perfect, ss frets perfect and everything was exactly as it should be. The top is down right beautiful! I did need to tighten the truss rod a little but that is probably due to climate differences.

This is my first Evertune bridge... I have heard praise and horror over the years but as I do some luthier work on the side I needed one to learn how to use and set it up. Thus far my concerns were not justified in the least. As expected the guitar was in tune out of the box... The main reason I have ignored these over the years because I use quite a bit of vibrato and bending in my lead playing and have heard numerous stories that they feel odd or don't respond correctly. That's simply not the case. As suggested by some videos I watched before ordering, I just put a tuner on it and tightened the tuner at the headstock until it went sharp then backed off a tad and that was it. If you have played with a floating bridge the bending responds just same from a single note perspective but unlike a floating trem the other notes stay in tune... very nice!

I'm not a huge fan of EMGs for versatility but being able to "split" the neck produces a beautiful chimney sound. Otherwise they sound like the same 81 and 60 many of us are already familiar with from years past. The option on the 60TW-R is a welcome change though!

One reason to get this over the see through black is this one has stainless steel frets, at least as of the end of 2021. The amazing fretwork on top of that and the familiar ESP/LTD neck makes this a breeze to play on.

If you considering a guitar with an Evertune bridge this one should be high on your list, the price to performance ratio makes this an outstanding value.

Dollar for dollar, this can’t be beat!

If you're wanting to try an Evertune, this is a great starting point. The hype is real. I'm already plotting on selling off other guitars to get more Evertune equipped ones!
Superb fi and finish. Really good fret work feels even better than it is with very nice binding on the neck. I checked with a fret rocker and the frets are almost perfectly level. I can tell they were just pressed in and not leveled… but that totally cool for how consistent it is. No buzz and able to go super low on action.
Emg's are emg's love them like I do or unjustly hate them because that's the cool thing to do, they sound great! The 'coil split' isn't actually a coil split. It's a separate single coil in the same housing, which is really cool.
It'd be nice if the neck were satin and if it had locking tuners, but honestly, I can do both mods aftermarket.
All in all, you can't go wrong! Stainless steel frets, Evertune, neck through, emg's.
