Description
The LTD Phoenix-1000 Evertune Silver Sunburst Satin is part of the LTD 1000 series. 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 EverTune marks the first time we’ve paired the smooth, flowing curves of the Phoenix shape with the EverTune constant tension bridge system, allowing your guitar to remain in perfect tune, and perfect intonation up and down the neck, in nearly any conceivable environment. This guitar offers neck-thru-body construction, with a three-piece mahogany neck and mahogany body wings. Its Silver Sunburst Satin finish is matched on the guitar’s body (front and back), neck, and headstock. Its Macassar ebony fingerboard includes white binding, 22 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, and white pearloid ESP flag inlays. Components on the Phoenix-1000 EverTune include Grover tuners and a set of Fishman Fluence Modern Humbuckers (alnico in the neck position, ceramic in the bridge), with a push-pull control to activate each pickup’s second voicing, and black nickel covers that match the guitar’s black hardware and brushed black pickguard.
EVERTUNE
The EverTune bridge is an all mechanical bridge system that keeps the guitar’s strings in-tune indefinitely by using a combination of springs, levers and some mathematics, which create constant tension on every string, all while still allowing for expressive playing including vibrato and string bending. The EverTune supports any desired tuning and is a perfect solution for song writing, recording and touring where a guitarists needs to rely on unwavering tuning stability and great intonation across the neck.
