    I have an EC-1000 for sale. I bought it a year ago brand new from Guitar Center for $860. It plays great and only has one ding near the output from a lead cable.

    Pictures can be seen on the craigslist ad

    This is amazing. I just don't enjoy playing it as much as I did when I first got it. So it's time for someone else to love it.

    I liked it a lot. Played nice, but I haven't been playing for a year yet, almost a year. And I didn't think I'd get out of it what I would be paying. . My Ltd m10 works good enough for now.

    Yea I like playing too but, that much on something you can get for under 200 unless you're really good is hard to swallow.

    I don't really agree with that. You can't get any good tones for under $200. I owned a $200 squire and it sounded like garbage compared to this even playing simple chord progressions and scales

    True, i brought my m10 to the guitar place in town and they complimented on how low and heavy it sounded. For clean tones i don't think it pulls it off that well but under distortion it sounds good. Which i like to play metal style. I would love to have an ec 1000, that are so smooth.

    The trick with an ec-1000 is to use roll off the volume to get more clarity in cleans and then just turn everything to 10 when you're playing distortion
