I have the Fluence Tiger eye model as well as the Fluence black model - and I really love them! However, I love EMG 57/66 as well, so I put them in the tiger eye model, together with gold hardware.

Both look great, glad you're enjoying them!
I've tried the EC-1000s Fluence and absolutely love it. Specs look similar to this. Is there any sonic difference between the 2?
if you have any questions you may reach out to our customer service team at customerservice@espguitars.com or https://www.espguitars.com/pages/support
Do these have a solid maple cap or just a veneer.??
this will be a veneer
I am wondering why the binding of my new guitar is dark yellow, Vintage Style. All pictures from ESP-Guitars show this model with white- colored binding. It really makes a difference optically!

Hey, Im buying some Ec-1000 guitar and this Tiger eye color looks nice.
I Don't know, do i like fishmans.. and i'd like to know Is there bridge ground cable ready, If i change pickups to some passives?
Thx from Finland!
Unlike other actives this will use a bridge ground.
I m not sure but it seems that with the right set up there is up to 4 modes with the fluence modern pick ups. Is there a way to add the coil split on the ec1000? And what parts should I buy in order to do it?
Hey Eric, if you visit Fishman's site they will have all the resources you need in order to perform this kind of modification. Though if you are unfamiliar with this kind of work I would suggest bringing your instrument to a professional to avoid any unwanted damage to your pickups and/or guitar.
i read somewhere that there is a push-pull for active and passive pickup changing. is that true?
Hi Robert, Thanks for your question. This system is fully active, so it cannot go from active to passive. However, the push pull pot is used to change the voicings. There are 2 voicings: down for “Modern Active” tone, or up for “Modern Passive Attack” which simply give you different sounds, but continue to be active. Hope this helps.
There is any chance to see Ltd Fluence Eclipse in See Thru Purple Sunburst?
Hi Czajken, Thanks for your suggestion. There are no certain plans for this model but if we consider a new color this is a good choice.
More options with other colors specially with fluence pickups
Hi Tales, Thanks for your suggestion.
Some of these EC models are lovely, but surely a guitar costing over £1000 should have a case included?
Hi Gary, Thanks for your comment.
can i order one in any other finishes
Hi Stephen, Sorry we only offer what you see on our website. We cannot take special orders for any other colors. But it's possible we could offer a new color in the future.
How do I set up the bridge and intonation to be able to play in Drop A tuning, especially with the 24.75" scale length? What string gauge should I use?
Hi Sam, If you are changing from a regular tuning to a Drop A tuning on a 24.75" scale guitar, it is possible but it depends on your playing style and overall needs whether this setup will work for you or not. Your best option is to take your guitar to a professional repair person so they can do all this work for you. They will have to do the following: 1) Install larger strings (probably something like 60 - 48 - 38 - 28 - 18 - 13); 2) enlarge the string slots on nut; 3) readjust all the intonation & height settings on bridge; 4) adjust neck bow. Even after you do all this, since the scale length is short, this is not the ideal setup. I really recommend you try a baritone scale guitar first. It would perform perfectly for what you are trying to do.
Hey guys,
You know, I've always had a eye for the Les Paul style guitars and I love Gibson and Epiphone, and I've had one or two.
But the Gibson's are just to pricey for my budget, and most epiphone are some what lakking at times. ive seen the 2019 Gibson and I like them, they're gorgeous.
But sense I've been playing the ESP LTD ec-1000 deluxe, and my LTD FRX-401 I've been just fine.
For a good quality instrument at a good price, for jamming hear at home. So far I have owned five ESP to date and thinking about the ESP LTD Fluence Tiger EYE "man that color is popping"!!!
I just wish all the dealer's I've visited would show it like you guy do, on there web site. Man she's beautiful!!.
Thank You ESP!
Todd P.
Hi Todd, Wow, thanks for your great review on our products! It's always great to hear from our customers and we appreciate your feedback. Thank you for believing in our brand!!
Wow! Beautiful guitar
Hi Fuzzface2018, Thanks! Glad you like it!
Please, do this model, but with blue color.
I´m love this guitar, but to my in blue will be perfect.
Hi Carlos, Thanks for the suggestion.
Blue would be so cool... and also different knob style...
Hi Tales, thanks for your suggestions.
That’s really pretty. I love my Koa EC-1000. It always turns heads when people see it. Sounds awesome with the SD pups, too. Thanks for a great instrument!
Hey Kevin, Thank you very much for your comments! We're glad you love your guitar too!
On a website of a dealer I read this guitar is made in Indonesia, not Korea which I read somewhere else, which this correct?
Or are these being made in multiple factories in both countries? Or diffrent versions and the production got shifted to another country so earlier models are form a diffrent country than more recent ones?
Hi Joshua, Thanks for your comments and questions. We are constantly monitoring production standards at our various factories in Asia where we produce LTD instruments. We may shift production or share production between different factories however we always make sure that our products being produced are of excellent quality and they must pass our own quality assurance testing. So it is correct to say that this model is made in Indonesia, it also may be made in Korea. However, the specs and quality remain the same.
If the serial number starts with a "W" then it is made in South Korea by Word Musical Instrument Corporation (WMIC). WMIC is probably the best of the foreign makers of guitars for quality. (Schecter, PRS) are a few made by them. I have this guitar EC1000 FM and it is is as good and in fact better in some ways than my ESP II Eclipse made in Japan.
The Top tier LTD models are most likely made by WMIC and the mid top lower tier made in Indonesia. Indonesian guitars have a serial number that starts with a "I".
A lefty version of any Fishmans Ec1000 guitars would be nice.
I would accept any of the fluences models even if it just one of them made available lefty.
Beautiful color!! Fishmans take it to the next level
