The EC-256 Vintage Natural is a set-neck design with a mahogany body and great-looking flamed maple top, along with a comfortable and easy-to-play thin U-shaped three-piece mahogany neck and roasted jatoba fingerboard. It features a set of acclaimed ESP Designed LH-150 humbucker pickups with great tone for all kinds of music from rock to pop to metal, and for even more sonic versatility, the pickups can be split into single-coil with a push-pull control.

    I just posted in the LTD forums section. I purchased this axe today at Sam Ash in New Haven CT. I cannot believe the quality of this guitar, from feel to sound - i would easily expect to pay $1000 or more for a guitar of this quality. You guys should pat yourselves on the back.

        What's the difference between the EC-256 and EC-256FM?  Both have flamed maple in the description which was my best guess.

                  We did offer the EC-1000 in this color some years ago, perhaps you could get a hold of one of those.

                    Just received it today. Ordered from Sweetwater and had it Plek setup. I really think it looks and plays great. It looks better in person than the pictures show...Would love to have some info on the controls.

                      Glad you enjoy it, controls are volume/volume/tone with a three way switch and push/pull for coil splitting.  Here is a link for our owner's manual for your reference.
