An Eclipse Series 1000: LTD's High-End Model Tailored for Demanding Musicians
Within the Eclipse family, the Series 1000 stands out as a benchmark for LTD: a "pro instrument" approach with rigorous manufacturing, selected components, and ergonomics designed to last. The EC-1000SD Vintage Black adopts the iconic single-cut codes while adding the level of finish and reliability expected from a guitar ready to withstand rehearsals, concerts, and sessions without flinching.
For Which Guitarists and Styles?
The LTD EC-1000SD is aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists looking to step up in comfort, tuning stability, and versatility. Its character suits rock, hard rock, metal, and alternative genres particularly well, while remaining credible in gritty blues or pop rock when the attack is softened and nuances are carefully crafted. With its 24 frets and single cutaway access, it also encourages lead playing and more ambitious solos.
Sound
The combination of mahogany body + set mahogany neck delivers a naturally dense tone, with present mids, a nice roundness, and especially sustain that highlights bends, vibratos, and sustained notes. The Macassar ebony fingerboard provides a sharper attack and better clarity, ideal for tight riffs as well as open chords.
Regarding pickups, the pairing of the Seymour Duncan JB (bridge) and Seymour Duncan 59 (neck) covers a wide spectrum: the JB delivers an energetic output level, gripping mids, and excellent response for saturated rhythms, while the 59 offers a warmer, more articulate register for singing leads, silky clean tones, and arpeggios. Together, they form an expressive guitar capable of "biting" in high gain while retaining body and precision.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To fully exploit this 6-string guitar, you can opt for standard electric string sets (gauges chosen according to your tuning and attack), a classic strap, and picks suited to your style (stiffer for riffing, more flexible for strumming). For optimal protection, favor a transport solution in single cut format, checking internal dimensions before purchase.

I did not want to put more than 1000 euros in a guitar (complementary in this case) at less than 900 euros this Ltd EC 1000 with its 2 Seymour Duncans (a 59 neck and a JB bridge) suits me very well. Excellent value for money.

Beautiful guitar, of high quality. The sound of the microphones is a bit surprising at first. But for the price the case should be provided.
