The ESP LTD Deluxe MV-1000 electric guitar introduces the Maverick shape to the LTD lineup as a fully realized performance instrument built for modern lead players. Its smooth asymmetrical body is paired with bolt-on construction at a 24.75" scale length, creating a fast flexible feel that supports wide bends and expressive vibrato. A Floyd Rose 1000SE double-locking tremolo with stainless steel screws provides stable pitch control, while a three-piece extra-thin U-shaped roasted maple neck and Macassar ebony fingerboard carry 27 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets for extended range and fluid playability. Direct-mounted Seymour Duncan pickups include an ESP-exclusive Custom 14 TB bridge humbucker with coil-splitting and a Hot Rails neck pickup, delivering versatile tones in a design built for professional recording and touring use.
Bolt-On Construction and 24.75" Scale for Fast Playability
Bolt-on construction pairs the alder body with a three-piece extra-thin U-shaped roasted maple neck for a quick responsive feel with added stability. The 24.75" scale length reduces string tension, making bends feel easier and keeping vibrato smooth and controlled. This combination supports articulate attack and clean note separation while staying comfortable for long sessions.
Floyd Rose 1000SE Tremolo for Expressive Pitch Control
A Floyd Rose 1000SE double-locking tremolo anchors the MV-1000, providing the tuning stability needed for aggressive vibrato and dive bomb techniques. Stainless steel screws add durability and help the bridge feel consistent under heavy use. The result is dependable intonation and confident control for players who lean on tremolo phrasing.
27 Stainless Steel Frets and Ebony Fingerboard for Extended Range
A Macassar ebony fingerboard carries 27 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, giving the MV-1000 added range and a smooth playing surface built for speed. Stainless steel fret material supports long-term durability and consistent feel, especially for frequent bending and high-register work. The extra-thin U neck profile keeps movement across positions fast and precise.
Direct-Mounted Seymour Duncan Pickups With Coil-Splitting
The MV-1000 features direct-mounted Seymour Duncan pickups for a clear immediate response. An ESP-exclusive Custom 14 TB bridge humbucker delivers strong output and definition, with coil-splitting available via push-pull control for added tonal flexibility. A Hot Rails pickup in the neck provides a focused high-output voice suited for fluid leads and controlled clean tones.
An ESP LTD Deluxe Electric Guitar Built for Pro Reliability
Black hardware and Grover tuners complete a build designed for consistency in demanding environments. With its distinctive Maverick body shape, fast neck profile and pro-ready tremolo system, the MV-1000 is built to hold up for serious recording and touring needs. It delivers the control, stability and tonal range expected from a modern ESP electric guitar.
