ESP LTD Deluxe Phoenix-1001 – Tobacco Sunburst Quilt – Exclusive Seymour Duncan Custom 14 Pickup

The LTD Deluxe Phoenix-1001 combines bold, flowing lines with premium tonewoods and pro-level hardware, delivering a guitar that’s as visually striking as it is sonically versatile.

Built with neck-thru-body construction and a 25.5” scale, it boasts exceptional sustain and smooth upper fret access.
