Fs: Ltd Electric Guitar Ec-1000 Stbc In Esp Hard Case $800 [Act]


Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

Selling a few items to boost my home deposit. I have a few guitars and don't play this guitar much as the others. hence selling it.

It's an LTD Deluxe EC-1000 STBC in a genuine ESP hard case, which fits it perfectly. I'm meticulous with my gear and this has only been played in the bedroom (even has the plastic on the rear facing covers). I installed Schaller straplocks on it, otherwise it's stock as per the ESP site. This is an '05 model, so it has Sperzel locking tuners which are better than the ESP tuners they use on current models.

Photos of the actual guitar:

Please remember that even the slightest speck of dust shows up on high res photos. I can take extra photos if you want to confirm anything. The only sign of use on the guitar is that the finish on the saddles of the bridge has rubbed off a bit from restringing. The hard case has a small tear in the leather - it is purely cosmetic (near the "ESP" symbol in the photo).

Features:

* set-neck construction

* 24.75" scale

* 3-piece mahogany neck

* rosewood fingerboard

* abalone flag inlays w/model name at 12th fret

* EMG 81/60 active pickups

* 2 volume and 1 tone control w/3-way toggle

* black hardware

* See-thru Black Cherry Finish

* Sperzel locking tuners

* Earvana compensated nut

* TonePros locking bridge w/stop tailpiece

* white w/abalone binding on body neck and headstock

* 24 XJ frets

* Schaller strap locks added by me.

It plays beautifully, very fast neck. If you are Canberra based, feel free to come try it out. I also teach guitar if you want to learn to use it :)

I'm looking for $800, which includes free delivery in the ACT or nearby. If you are outside the ACT, I'm happy to negotiate on a price which includes delivery, depending your location and shipping method. Cheers.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
