Description
The LTD Phoenix-1000 See Thru Black Sunburst 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 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.
