    NOTE: Due to ongoing challenges in the global supply chain, instruments purchased from ShopESP that are not currently in stock may take an extended time frame to be delivered.

    Guitars in the LTD 1000 Series are designed to offer the tone, feel, looks and quality that working professional musicians require in an instrument. Based on the traditional look of ESP’s Snapper guitar shape, the SN-1000FR adds the high-performance tools needed for contemporary music. It has a swamp ash body at 25.5” scale, with a roasted maple neck and maple fingerboard with stainless steel frets that include scalloping from #17-24. The SN-1000FR offers an H/S/S pickup configuration with two Seymour Duncan Hot Strat single-coils and a high-output Pegasus humbucker in the bridge, with a push-push control to split the bridge pickup. It also features a Floyd Rose 1000SE bridge with stainless steel screws. The SN-1000FR is offered in a sandblasted Black Blast finish.

    No more alder body with HSS configuration on the snappers? Maybe next year?

      It would make sense to install Gotoh 1996 “ Floyd style bridges “ instead of Floyd rose since they are the same radius 350 mm as all your necks and they are better quality ‍♂️

        I had posted a review of this guitar earlier in the year, noting that the condition I received the guitar was not up to par with the standards that ESP sets. However, a I repurchased the guitar through an authorized retailer and it was in much better condition than the guitar I originally purchased. 10/10. This guitar is amazing. Absolutely beautiful piece of work if you happen to get one that’s been looked over well. Incredibly versatile as well.

          This might just be the one.  Wow.  It has all the features I love. 

          Do you know the average weight of this guitar? 

          Also, the tuners ratio? 18 to 1 or 16 to 1 or? 

           

          Thanks.

            Hi, Glad you like this one. The weight is approximately 7.6lbs. Keep in mind that weights will vary. Tuner gear ratio is in fact 18:1. For any other questions please direct them to [email protected]

              Got one two days ago. The QA was terrible on it. Scalloped frets on 17-24 had cracks on it. A shame, really. It looks beautiful, but the one I got directly from here looked like they barely put any effort into building it.
