Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

ESP's right-handed TE-1000 pairs a Silver Blast textured finish with a swamp ash body, bolt-on construction, and a roasted maple Thin U neck. Its two Seymour Duncan pickups are selected through a three-way toggle, while master volume and a push-pull master tone control provide coil splitting. The Hipshot hardtail bridge uses a string-through-body design, and LTD locking tuners handle tuning. A compound-radius fingerboard and extra-jumbo stainless-steel frets support lower-register chording and higher-register bending in the same instrument.
