Guitars in the LTD 1000 Series are designed to offer the tone, feel, looks, and quality that working professional musicians need in an instrument. The Phoenix-1000 will grab everyone’s attention via the smooth, flowing curves of its body and the upscale look of its quilted maple top in a transparent See Thru Black Sunburst finish that highlights the figured grain of the wood. Built with neck-thru-body construction, this guitar includes a three-piece mahogany neck and mahogany body wings, white binding on the body, neck, and headstock, and a reversed headstock with matching finish. The Phoenix-1000 offers a Macassar ebony fingerboard with 22 extra-jumbo frets and ESP flag inlays. Components on this guitar include LTD locking tuners, a TonePros locking TOM bridge and tailpiece, and a custom spec'd set of Seymour Duncan pickups with nickel covers. A Phat Cat in the neck position allows for P-90 single-coil growl and bite in a humbucker format, while a ceramic Custom in the neck position provides overwound P.A.F.-like tones, splittable to single-coil with a push-pull control.
