The ESP LTD NV‐1000 BLACK brings iconic V‐style aggression with a sleek all‐black aesthetic that commands attention on any stage. This neck‐through design combines a mahogany body with a 3‐piece maple neck and Macassar ebony fingerboard, creating a warm, mid‐focused foundation with exceptional sustain and articulation. The 25.5" scale length provides familiar tension and response, while the construction method ensures maximum energy transfer from string to body.
Built for high‐performance playing, this guitar features a Floyd Rose 1000SE double‐locking tremolo system paired with Grover tuners for rock‐solid tuning stability even under extreme vibrato abuse. The electronics package centres on direct‐mounted EMG active pickups — an EMG 60 in the neck position for tight lows and crisp clean tones, and an EMG 81 at the bridge for cutting high‐gain attack and modern clarity. A straightforward master volume and toggle switch keep things simple and responsive when you need to make quick tonal changes.
