Tasteful player Rodney Dudum gives you this terrific demo of the LTD Deluxe TH-1000 in two delicious flavors: the TH-1000 Snow White, and the TH-1000 EverTune in See Thru Black Sunburst. Both of these guitars are outstanding in their own way. Both are made with bolt-on construction at 25.5" scale, with swamp ash bodies and a fast, smooth, three-piece roasted maple neck. Both offer Macassar ebony fingerboards with 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets. But the TH-1000 Snow White features a Hipshot hardtail bridge and a black bone nut, while the TH-1000 EverTune includes the innovative EverTune constant tension bridge. Either way, these guitars offers the outstanding, versatile, and dynamic tones via a set of Seymour Duncan Mortal Coil 3-Voice Active Humbucker active pickups, with push-puil controls to access their multiple voices.

"My new custom ESP Okkultist V has already gone through various stages of stress testing and endurance, almost before it even got properly baptized! Its playability and smooth neck has taken things to a new level and I can’t wait to perform with this in a live setting as well! It’s my most versatile weapon yet!" - Silenoz, Dimmu Borgir
