ESP LTDBW-1 EverTune
See Thru Black Ben Weinman Signature
The BW-1 EverTune is one of the most unique and innovative high performance guitars in the LTD Signature Series.
Created by Ben Weinman, a founding member of mathcore geniuses The Dillinger Escape Plan and a highly respected player whose combination of speed and feel has landed him on many best of guitarist lists, the BW-1's most notable feature is its EverTune constant tension bridge.
The BW-1 EverTune is a neck-through-body design at 25.5" scale, with a chambered mahogany body and flamed maple top, and binding on the body, neck, and headstock. It offers a fast three-piece thin U-shaped maple neck with an ebony fingerboard that includes 24 extra-jumbo frets.
The sound of this guitar is powered by a set of Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker active pickups with nickel covers. These pickups allow for a remarkable degree of sonic flexibility. Two separate voicings are selectable via the push-pull on the tone control (down for “Modern Active” tone, or up for “Modern Passive Attack”).
This model utilizes a standard 9V battery and comes in See Thru Black finish.
MSRP:$1,999.00
Please use our String Tension Gauge Calculator for your desired tuning and string gauges to verify the correct SADDLE TYPE (STANDARD, HIGH or LOW) is selected for each string.
View explanation of all options here: Saddle Tension Selection / Bridge Rebuild Options (?)
Should the bridge need custom high or low tension saddle modules for certain strings -- or if you want different color option for the faceplate or any saddles -- we charge one $30 fee to swap them out at build time instead of $50 per saddle module when buying them separately.
