Overview

Traditional looks and feel with groundbreaking electronics.

Built for players who want single-cut power with modern versatility, the LTD EC-1000T FM electric guitar combines a full-thickness chambered body, premium tonewoods and multi-voice Fishman electronics in a stage-ready LTD Deluxe design. Its chambered mahogany body provides the depth and presence players expect from a traditional EC-style guitar while helping reduce weight for long sets and extended sessions. A flamed maple top adds high-end visual detail, while Set-Thru construction, a Thin U neck profile and a Macassar ebony fingerboard support fast, comfortable playability. Updated with Fishman Fluence Open Core Classic humbuckers, the EC-1000T FM delivers multiple pickup voices for everything from vintage-inspired humbucker tones to hotter modern sounds and clear single-coil textures. With TonePros locking hardware, LTD locking tuners and a 24.75" scale length, the EC-1000T FM is built for expressive performance across rock, metal, blues and modern worship styles.

Full-Thickness Chambered Body With Premium Tonewoods

The EC-1000T FM uses a full-thickness single-cutaway body that gives the guitar a more traditional feel than thinner EC models. Its mahogany body provides warmth, sustain and low-mid presence, while the flamed maple top adds visual depth and a touch of high-end clarity. Chambered construction helps reduce weight without removing the substantial feel players expect from a full-bodied single-cut. The result is a guitar that balances resonance, comfort and stage-ready style for players who want a premium LTD platform that can handle long rehearsals, recording sessions and live performances.

Set-Thru Neck Construction for Fast Access

Set-Thru construction gives the EC-1000T FM strong sustain and smooth access to the upper frets, making it easier to move from rhythm parts into lead lines. The 3-piece mahogany neck uses LTD's Thin U profile, giving players a fast, familiar feel without sacrificing stability. A 24.75" scale length keeps string tension comfortable for bends, vibrato and expressive phrasing, while the satin neck finish supports smooth hand movement across the fingerboard. Together, these details create a playing experience that feels refined, responsive and built for demanding performance.

Macassar Ebony Fingerboard and Extra-Jumbo Frets

The Macassar ebony fingerboard adds a smooth, articulate playing surface that complements the EC-1000T FM's set-thru construction and modern electronics. A 13.78" radius provides a balanced feel for chords, riffs and lead work, while 22 extra-jumbo frets give players a confident surface for bending and fast passages. Wave inlays add distinctive LTD styling without distracting from the guitar's clean visual identity. With a 1.65" nut width and dual-action truss rod, the neck and fingerboard are designed to support precise setup adjustment and reliable playability.

Fishman Fluence Open Core Classic Pickup Voices

Fishman Fluence Open Core Classic humbuckers give the EC-1000T FM a flexible voice set that moves beyond a traditional two-humbucker layout. Push-pull voicing controls provide access to multiple pickup characters, allowing players to move from vintage PAF-inspired humbucker tones to hotter humbucker sounds and clear single-coil-style textures. This range makes the guitar useful for tight rhythm work, singing leads, clean passages and layered studio parts. Because the pickups are active, they also provide consistent output and clarity for players who need repeatable tones across stage, studio and direct recording setups.

TonePros Hardware and LTD Locking Tuners

The EC-1000T FM is equipped with hardware chosen for stability, sustain and dependable performance. A TonePros locking tune-o-matic bridge and TonePros T1Z tailpiece create a solid connection between the strings and body, while LTD locking tuners support quick string changes and tuning reliability. Nickel hardware complements the guitar's premium finish and traditional single-cut outline. From the fixed bridge to the locking tuning machines, the EC-1000T FM is designed to stay stable through aggressive rhythm playing, expressive bends and regular stage use.

A Premium LTD Single-Cut With Modern Flexibility

The LTD EC-1000T FM electric guitar is built for players who want the feel and authority of a full-thickness single-cut with the versatility of modern Fishman electronics. Its chambered mahogany body, flamed maple top, Set-Thru neck and Macassar ebony fingerboard provide a strong foundation for expressive playing, while the Fishman Fluence Open Core Classic pickups expand the guitar's tonal range far beyond a standard HH configuration. For guitarists seeking a premium LTD Deluxe model with traditional body depth, modern playability and multi-voice pickup control, the LTD EC-1000T FM electric guitar delivers a powerful and flexible performance platform.
