An Onslaught of Full-throttle Metal Tone

From its full-bodied and durable construction to the top-notch electronics and hardware, the ESP LTD Phoenix-1004 Bass Guitar is a high-performing axe tailor-made for delivering an unapologetic and punishing rumble. This 4-string's shimmering aesthetic is complemented perfectly with its commanding mahogany body covered in a satin finish. As for tone, let's just say that this bass's active Fishman Fluence SB-1 humbuckers churn out enough high-output punch to rattle the walls. Wrapping your hand around the LTD Phoenix-1004's Thin "U"-shaped neck is a satiating experience, and its smooth 21-fret fingerboard offers playability that's second to none. The LTD Phoenix-1004 also includes high-quality LTD Vintage tuners and a reliable Gotoh bridge for excellent tuning stability. If you're ready to lay down some sinister grooves, the LTD Phoenix-1004 is ready, willing, and able to oblige.

Thunderous SB-1 pickups deliver low-end destruction

These tonewoods are all well and good, but they won’t matter much if your pickups aren’t up to the task, right? Fortunately, ESP’s craftsmanship doesn’t stop there, as they opted for Fishman Fluence SB-1 humbuckers. These active-duty pickups can sniff out every tone with excellent efficiency. Moreover, they’re wired with push-pull options to freely engage single-coil modes with each pickup, diversifying your voicing for unmatched sonic sculpting. Volume, balance, and tone controls let you dial in your sound even further, arranged to be accessible yet out of the way.

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

Playing the ESP LTD Phoenix-1004 is a treat. Its Thin "U"-shaped neck yields excellent control and stability, and its 34-inch scale offers a classic, familiar feel. This electric bass guitar's 15.75-inch-radius fingerboard exhibits near-effortless playability that's augmented by 21 smooth extra-jumbo stainless-steel frets. What's more, ESP's trademark flag inlays along the frets give the LTD Phoenix-1004 a menacing aesthetic that's guaranteed to attract attention.

Jam-packed with pro-quality hardware

The LTD Phoenix-1004 is laden with high-quality appointments. Its Gotoh 201B-4 bridge affords you reliable intonation; its brass saddles resist string wear and foster incredible natural sustain. LTD Vintage tuners and standard strap buttons round out this 4-string bass's impressive feature set. Sweetwater’s bass barons agree when it comes to the LTD Phoenix-1004, the only soft thing about it is its curves, built to thrill with a low end that just won’t quit.

  • Full-force mahogany body with a dark satin finish
