An electric guitar built for fast, precise shred leads.
Some guitar designs refuse to blend in, and the ESP LTD Deluxe RS-1000 electric guitar embraces that philosophy without compromise. Built around ESP’s instantly recognizable Random Star shape, the RS-1000 is designed for players who want visual impact matched by serious performance capability. Using neck-thru-body construction at a 24.75" scale length, this electric guitar pairs mahogany body wings with an extra-thin U-shaped three-piece maple neck to deliver strong sustain, fast response and a controlled aggressive feel suited for demanding modern styles.
EMG 81 and 85 Pickups for Relentless High-Gain Precision
The LTD Deluxe RS-1000 is equipped with direct-mount EMG active pickups featuring an EMG 81 in the bridge position and an EMG 85 in the neck. The EMG 81 provides tight low end, sharp attack and cutting clarity for heavy rhythm work and articulate lead lines. The EMG 85 adds a smoother fuller voice in the neck position, ideal for sustained solos and expressive phrasing. This pairing delivers consistent high-output tone that stays focused even under extreme gain.
Floyd Rose 1000SE Tremolo for Extreme Control
A Floyd Rose 1000SE double-locking tremolo bridge with stainless steel screws anchors the LTD Deluxe RS-1000, offering strong tuning stability during aggressive pitch manipulation. Dive bombs, pull-ups and wide vibrato techniques remain precise and controlled thanks to the locking nut and bridge system. This tremolo setup is built for players who rely on expressive whammy use without sacrificing intonation or reliability.
Neck and Fingerboard Designed for Speed
The extra-thin U-shaped three-piece maple neck is engineered for fast fluid movement across the fretboard, providing a smooth feel that supports long sessions of technical playing. A Macassar ebony fingerboard carries 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, offering effortless bends, clear articulation and long-term durability. The reverse headstock reinforces the guitar’s aggressive identity while helping maintain balanced string tension.
Neck-Thru Construction With Road-Ready Hardware
Neck-thru-body construction allows the maple neck to run the full length of the instrument, enhancing sustain and structural strength while providing seamless access to the highest frets. Precise Grover tuners help maintain tuning stability, and the overall hardware package is selected to withstand the rigors of touring and regular studio use. Every component is chosen to support consistency and confidence under high-performance conditions.
A Statement ESP LTD Electric Guitar Built to Perform
The ESP LTD Deluxe RS-1000 electric guitar is made for players who want bold design paired with uncompromising performance. From its aggressive pickup configuration and Floyd Rose tremolo to its fast neck and neck-thru construction, every detail supports high-energy playing without distraction. Whether on stage or in the studio, the LTD Deluxe RS-1000 delivers the control, sustain and authority expected from a modern ESP electric guitar built for serious musicians.
