The EC-201FT modernizes the spirit of rock single-cuts by prioritizing efficiency. Its Les Paul style design and transparent finish reveal the wood grain, while the minimalist setup (one pickup, one potentiometer) focuses on the essentials: playing, tone, attitude.
Perfect for beginner to intermediate guitarists who want a reliable electric guitar, easy to set up and ready for stage or home studio. With its bridge humbucker and coil split, it covers rock, hard rock, and rhythmic metal, but can also lighten up for biting blues, energetic punk, or sharper crunch/clean tones.
The mahogany body and set neck provide warmth, solid mids, and sustain. The LH-150 bridge humbucker delivers a tight grain, precise attack, and harmonics that sing easily. In split mode, the tone becomes airier and snappier with lower output, ideal for clear arpeggios or vintage riffs. The Tune-o-Matic bridge stabilizes intonation and highlights the articulation of palm mutes as well as leads.
To get the best out of this 6-string, choose a set of 10-46 electric steel strings (versatile and comfortable on a 24.75" scale). Add a sturdy strap, a clip-on tuner, and if needed, a 6-string electric guitar capo. A microfiber cloth will preserve the glossy "See Thru Black Cherry" finish.
