Description
From its full-bodied and durable construction to the top-notch electronics and hardware, the ESP LPHOENIX1004BLK LTD Phoenix-1004 Bass Guitar is a high-performing axe tailor-made for delivering an unapologetic and punishing rumble.
This 4-string’s menacing black aesthetic is complemented perfectly with its commanding mahogany body covered in a dark satin finish. As for tone, let’s just say that this bass’s active EMG humbuckers churn out enough high-output punch to rattle the walls. Wrapping your hand around the LTD Phoenix-1004’s Thin “U”-shaped neck is a satiating experience, and its smooth 21-fret fingerboard offers playability that’s second to none. The LTD Phoenix-1004 also includes high-quality LTD Vintage tuners and a reliable Gotoh bridge for excellent tuning stability.
Thunderous EMG pickups deliver low-end destruction
If an earth-shaking tone is your goal, EMG pickups are guaranteed to bring the thunder. The LTD Phoenix-1004 sports a pair of these sonic decimators, with an EMG 35J in the bridge and a 35P4 in the neck. While boasting a virtually noiseless operation, EMG 35J pups deliver plenty of punch with thick and menacing lows complemented by clear and present highs. EMG 35P4 pickups are the go-to choice for many of today’s touring professionals, pumping out a warm, rich, and natural tone. Pick up the LTD Phoenix-1004, and prepare to drench your audiences in low-end destruction.
Thin “U” neck for excellent control, stability, and playability
Playing the ESP LTD Phoenix-1004 is a treat. Its Thin “U”-shaped neck yields excellent control and stability, and its 34-inch scale offers a classic, familiar feel. This electric bass guitar’s 15.75-inch-radius fingerboard exhibits near-effortless playability that’s augmented by 21 smooth extra-jumbo stainless-steel frets. What’s more, ESP’s trademark flag inlays along the frets give the LTD Phoenix-1004 a menacing aesthetic that’s guaranteed to attract attention.
Jam-packed with pro-quality hardware
The LTD Phoenix-1004 is laden with high-quality appointments. Its Gotoh 201B-4 bridge affords you reliable intonation; its brass saddles resist string wear and foster incredible natural sustain. LTD Vintage tuners and standard strap buttons round out this 4-string bass’s impressive feature set.
