LTD EC-1

Reborn for 2025.

From Stage to Road, this Guitar Never Compromises.

Meet the refreshed LTD EC-1 from Traveler Guitar: A no-compromise shred machine forged for the modern guitarist who needs full-scale feel and tone in a rig that’s made to move. Re-engineered for 2025 and now offered at an all-new, lower price, this axe is ready to melt faces without breaking your back—or your bank.

Hard Rock Heritage. Legendary DNA.

Officially licensed by ESP Guitars, the LTD EC-1 brings the iconic shape and aggressive spirit of the LTD EC series into a package that’s 24% shorter and 29% lighter than a standard guitar but still delivers full-scale power with a 24.75-inch playable neck. Weighing in at a mere 5 lbs 4 oz, this is the weapon of choice for road warriors, backstage rippers, and couch-bound riffers alike.

Built to Rip. Ready to Rule.

Equipped with a searing ESP-designed ALH-200B active humbucker, the LTD EC-1 doesn’t just look mean—it sounds absolutely lethal. Crank up the volume and tone controls, and this beast screams with tight lows, cutting highs, and everything in between.
