ESP LTD EC-1000 FR

I ordered one of these yesterday.  The description says a Floyd Rose 1000 series.  Anyone played one of these?

i think they were annunced at namm the other day, if that is the case id contact who you bought if from to get an estimated delivery date as i wouldn't expect it before the summer.

Pretty sure we've known about them for a while.

Meant to be pretty good guitars, the 1000 series LTDs are normally superb, I suspect the Eclipses with the floyds are no worse. And its an OFR too, should be a pretty good guitar.

I wonder where the Floyd Rose 1000s are made

The good Floyds that I am used to are the Floyd Rose 100 series - made in Germany

^ yeah, the 1000s are made in Korea, i think. that's the word on the, er, web anyway.

nope, they were officially anounced at namm. they are in the new for 2009 section of the esp website they do normally take about 6 months to supply the new models.

Musiciansfriend has been selling them since about a month ago.  I ordered mine from Piney Hills Music for a better price and it is in shipment to him from Hollywood as we speak.   They just happened to announce it at NAMM
