The ESP LTD EC-1000 Baritone is engineered for players who need extended range without compromising the feel and balance of a world-class instrument. A 27" baritone scale opens up lower tunings — from B to B or Drop A — with tight, defined low-end response and zero flub, while the mahogany body with maple cap delivers the warmth and sustain the EC platform is built on.

Fishman Fluence Modern active humbuckers give you two distinct voices per pickup via push-pull tone control — from articulate, dynamic cleans to high-output, harmonically rich drive. Set-thru construction maximizes neck resonance and upper-fret sustain, and 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets with glow-in-the-dark side dots ensure long-lasting playability and easy navigation in low-light stage environments. A TonePros locking TOM bridge with string-thru-body tailpiece locks in tuning stability under heavy playing.

For players who want the highest level of fretwork precision, optional Plek fret optimization is available for exceptional consistency and playability across the entire neck.
