EC-1000 Weight Relief

Hi all - as a new EC-1000T owner I couldn't be happier with the guitar - it looks, sounds and plays amazingly well. I just wondered as it's so light what the actual pattern of weight relief was in the mahogany body. Does anyone have an image of it without the maple cap on?

Thanks, J

Would like to know this as well.  I'd like to install an Evertune bridge but it is recommended by the bridge manufacturer to know where these holes/chambers are located.

This is what ESP sent me.

Wow, I've never seen that before.

Thanks, Bryan - not sure why they responded to you but they left my original post sitting for months! Still - it makes sense to have the V-shaped route/relief from the pickups to the pots since there are channels there anyway. The chambers beyond the bridge seem to start where the battery compartment is for the Fluence pickups, and remove plenty of weight from a section which causes LP-shaped guitars to overbalance and weigh 10 lbs.
