ESP LTD RS-1000 Electric Guitar - Pearl White

The ESP LTD RS-1000 in Pearl White is a sleek, high-performance rock and metal machine that combines classic styling with modern precision. With its neck-thru construction, Floyd Rose tremolo system, and EMG active pickups, this guitar is built for players who demand speed, sustain, and uncompromising tone.

At its core is a resonant mahogany body paired with a 3-piece maple neck, delivering a balanced tonal response with tight lows, punchy mids, and articulate highs. The neck-thru design maximizes sustain while providing seamless access to the upper frets—perfect for fluid lead playing and aggressive riffing alike.

The Macassar ebony fingerboard features a 350mm radius and is paired with an Extra Thin “U” neck profile, offering a fast, smooth feel that excels in technical and high-speed playing situations. With 24 extra jumbo stainless steel frets, the RS-1000 ensures long-lasting durability and effortless bends with a slick playing surface.

Equipped with the iconic EMG 81/85 active pickup set, this guitar delivers powerful, high-output tones with exceptional clarity and definition. The EMG 81 in the bridge position provides tight, aggressive attack for heavy rhythm work, while the EMG 85 in the neck offers warm, fluid tones ideal for leads and sustain-heavy passages. A streamlined control layout with master volume and a 3-way toggle keeps things simple and performance-focused.

The Floyd Rose 1000SE double-locking tremolo system allows for expressive pitch manipulation while maintaining rock-solid tuning stability, supported by a locking nut and Grover tuners.

Finished in a striking Pearl White with black hardware, the RS-1000 delivers a bold, timeless look that matches its powerful sound and performance capabilities.
