The ESP Guitar Company

When musical instrument retailer zZounds recently asked their customers to help them put together an "All-Star" list of the highest-rated electric guitars, not everyone would have predicted which guitar came in at the top spot. Looking through scores of reviews written by their customers who'd purchased instruments from them, zZounds handpicked the highest-rated, best-reviewed electric guitars for this list, and per their customers, the best electric guitar out there is the LTD Deluxe EC-1000. The highlighted reviews were extraordinarily complimentary toward this top-selling ESP model.

"The neck is a thing of beauty. It's thin, and the smooth finish of the matte black paint job allows your hand to slide up and down the neck effortlessly. The ebony fretboard is wonderful. I can't really describe it any other way, just absolutely wonderful. It plays effortlessly."
- Alex in Dothan, FL

"Lovely guitar with powerful and robust sweet sound. The sleek, smooth, and light body makes an easy playability that pleases your ears and fingers."
- Fernando in San Carlos, CA

"The EC-1000 is fantastic. The fit and finish are top notch. The extra-jumbo frets make playing so much fun."
- Jonathan in Bristol, TN
