Fierce T-style Axe with Exceptional Playability

Pure sonic destruction. One look at the ESP LTD TE-1000 is all it takes to know that's what this electric guitar is all about. By combining a vintage T-style body design with electronics and appointments geared for the modern player, the LTD TE-1000 punches far above its class and fully delivers. The mahogany body, Thin "U"-shaped maple neck, and ebony fingerboard come together beautifully, blending warmth, resonance, and durability made to last for generations. Its pair of Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers with dueling alnico and ceramic pole pieces feature pull tones for a thrilling degree of sound versatility. And with exceptional hardware like a hipshot string-through bridge and LTD locking tuners, you can be sure this axe will both look and perform its best no matter the occasion. If a full-force metal tone with exceptional playability is what you're chasing, the ESP LTD TE-1000 is your first-class ticket to the finish line.

Hard-rocking tonewood combination

ESP has crafted some of metal's finest instruments for nearly a half century. The LTD TE-1000 continues this tradition, utilizing a classic tonewood combination to reveal its forceful presence and commanding sound. A mahogany body sits at its core, imbuing warmth and resonance into the LTD TE-1000. Sweetwater shredders love ESP's world-class Thin "U" neck profile, a feature that makes this axe incredibly difficult to put down. Capped with a fast-playing ebony fingerboard, the LTD TE-1000's endlessly sustaining and rock-solid 3-piece maple neck sports the perfect recipe for finger-twisting solos and effortless 6-string sweeps.

Searing pair of Fishman Fluence humbuckers with plenty of versatility

A truly shredding axe isn't complete without some truly shredding pickups, and the LTD TE-1000 does not disappoint. This guitar comes equipped with two Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers, with an outrageous degree of tonal versatility. To begin with, the LTD TE-1000 has a separate pole piece construction on the neck and bridge, boasting alnico and ceramic arrangements, respectively. The presence of these fiery and aggressive humbuckers can then be adjusted at a moment's notice by pulling the tone control, unveiling secondary voices for each pickup with ease. From thick and heavy to bright and crackly, the LTD TE-1000 is expertly armed for duty!
