Hey. Recently got this from andertons. What an absolute killer guitar. Mine says M-1000 and not M-1000HT like others do and what is says on the pictures. Anyone know why?

Hi, glad to hear you like your guitar! The HT just stands for HardTail which doesn't  need to be printed on the cover. Most likely the photo on our site is from our original sample and needs to be updated.

Will these also be updated to stainless steel frets, like the other new 1000-series ltds?

Do these come fairly well set up from the factory?

What's up with the limited choice of colors?? Where's the white, black, cream, orange..ect. I'd buy a few, can't see buying the faded ones..

Carl N.

thanks for the insight!

I am wondering about the tuning. What is the difference between LTD locking and a Complete Floyd Rose bridge? And how do you tune the LTD Locking? I currently play on an KH LTD and i love everything about the guitar however I am looking for something i can tune a bit easier with alternate tunings. Would this be an appropriate guitar for that?

The nut locks on the Floyd Rose system, leaving bolts and 'claws' at 'fret 0'. 

 

The strings are locked to the tuning machine posts by bolts that go through the tuner from the back of the tuner, or locking pieces that go down into the tuner from the front, just depending on the manufacturer of the tuner.   The tuner presses the string against the post as you tighten, and you don't have to tie them off to the posts.
