ESP LTD EC1000T CTM with Evertune Bridge in Black

Full-Thickness Singlecut Mass Meets Zero-Drift Tuning Precision

The ESP LTD Deluxe EC-1000T CTM EverTune in Black combines classic singlecut heft with modern high-performance technology. The "T" stands for Traditional Full Thickness—meaning this guitar features a full-depth, chambered mahogany body with a maple cap, delivering the deep acoustic resonance, massive low-end weight, and traditional feel of a classic custom singlecut, enhanced with custom multi-ply binding (CTM) and high-end modern appointments.

How the EverTune Bridge Transforms Your Playing & Recording

The defining feature of this EC-1000T is the factory-installed EverTune Constant Tension Bridge. EverTune is an all-mechanical bridge system that uses internal spring-and-lever modules to maintain perfectly constant tension on every individual string, completely immune to temperature swings, humidity shifts, or heavy picking technique.

• Perfect Intonation & Tuning Lock: Tune the guitar once, and it stays perfectly in pitch—chord shapes remain dead-accurate across all 22 frets without sour notes or pitch drag under hard fretting pressure.
• Ideal for Studio Tracking: Record double-tracked rhythm guitars with perfect frequency alignment and zero pitch drift between takes, saving hours in studio editing.
• Customizable Bending Sensitivity: Easily adjust each saddle's Zone 2 threshold to allow standard string bends and vibrato, or lock it into Zone 1 for rock-solid pitch stability during aggressive rhythm rhythm tracking.

Fishman Fluence Open Core Classic Pickups & Premium Build

• Voice 2 (Hot-Rodded Humbucker): Modern high-output punch, tight low end, and searing mid-range gain.
