ESP LTD EC-1000FR Deluxe Series Electric Guitar with Floyd Rose
The ESP LTD EC-1000FR has plenty of attitude. The onboard Floyd Rose tremolo also lets players get a little extra edge from the ESP LTD EC-1000FR.

"Bad at first"

Came with fret sprout, locking nut was not installed correctly, and frets were lifting on the treble side and they catch the strings. This guitar is made in Indonesia, and I own an LTD that was made in Korea, and I can honestly say that the Korean one is considerably better. This guitar isn't the worst someone can buy for $1100 but I wouldn't call it the best. I like the splitable neck pickup, and the Single Cut with a Floyd Rose is a nice change of pace for me (I usually buy Super Strats).The neck profile is great, like a Fender Medium C but a tad thicker. The radius is nice and flat and the hardware is great.

I was feeling totally Corona bummed out. Uninspired, depressed, just a big pile of blahhhh. I had been wanting an esp for a minute and popped on zZounds and ended up checking this ltd out. So stoked I did! Had to do a couple adjustments, trem spring tension adjustment (slight) and then tune up , with grover, radical (non locking tuners!! These just are rock solid tuners.. with this setup, after your strings are broken in of course-- it will stay in tune Fer dayyyyzzz) so I plugged into my hot Rodded 6505+ with biased jj tubes,,, and this is just a beast of a guitar . Finish is flawless, cannot tell the difference between this and my buddies Japanese ESP. Knobs are rad and solid, push/pull pot on one--which adds a killer flavor. Then there's the emgs, just pure metal and I can get killer, rich, warm tones on the cleans too. Basically, I'm a changed man. I was jamming with my door open and a hot chicken walked by and smiled. Yep. Music is the universal language and I am happy. All kidding aside, this is a great guitar and has my full approval. I'm an esp fan big time now!! Thank you zZounds for trusting me again !! I have soo many rad guitars and amps from you guys!!

"BUY IT!!!!! IF you cant drop a few thousand on a Eclips or a Les Paul-this is right up there in quality and sound-FOR UNDER A TH"
Features
Got mine on scratch and dent sale for a few hundred less-but I would have bought it anyway!!!! This is a kick ass axe,and I love the weight and sond and has a real Floyd Rose not a licensed fake one.
Imagine having a les paul with Active EMG's and a Floyd Rose tremlo that stays in tune after dive bombing the the hell out of it!
But imagine this specs in a Les Paul Studio body(thinner than regular) a set neck and all the bling you can get(abalone binding all and a killer see thru black paint job)-it's beautiful-one of the best ESP's on the market outside of the eclipse models.
