ESP LTD EC-1000QM See Thru Purple Sunburst Lefty Guitar B-Stock

ESP LTD EC-1000QM See Thru Purple Sunburst Lefty Guitar

The EC-1000QM is a premium semi-hollow body designed for left-handed players seeking professional-grade construction and versatile tone. The thin U neck contour and 24.75" scale deliver comfortable access across all 24 stainless steel frets, while the set-through body design provides solid sustain and resonance without sacrificing the lighter feel of a semi-hollow instrument. This lefthand configuration maintains the full specification and build quality of ESP LTD's flagship EC line.

Construction & Playability

Built with a mahogany body, quilted maple top, and 3-piece mahogany neck, the guitar offers balanced weight and tonal warmth with structural stability. The Macassar ebony fingerboard with a 350mm radius and thin U contour accommodates both smooth lead work and controlled rhythm playing, while the 42mm molded nut provides consistent string spacing tailored for standard tuning and playing styles.

Electronics & Tone

Active EMG electronics deliver articulate, high-output tones across a wide range of styles: the EMG-81 bridge pickup generates aggressive treble and punch, while the EMG-60TW-R neck pickup with pull-tap coil split offers warm, versatile mid-range response. The control layout—bridge volume, neck volume, tone with push/pull capability, and three-way toggle—provides intuitive access to tonal shaping without complex switching.

As a B-Stock instrument it carries a minor factory cosmetic blemish — a small finish mark with no effect on playability, tone or structure — which is why it sells for less than a first-quality unit. The exact blemish varies from unit to unit, so it is not described or pictured here; photos show the model, not the individual unit. It is new, unplayed and covered by the full manufacturer warranty.
