The LTD EC-401 clearly showcases its strengths in the rock and metal genres. The popular pickup configuration with an active EMG60 at the neck and EMG81 at the bridge provides plenty of punch. In this price range, the very good craftsmanship of the instrument stands out, complementing the sleek black appearance and slim feel. The mahogany body with a carved top and set mahogany neck is reminiscent of the classic Les Paul. The single-cut design allows for easy access to the higher frets.
The EC-401 is lighter in weight, which is very beneficial during live performances. Additionally, the thinner neck with a Thin-U profile ensures easy playability, although it is worth noting that the neck is finished. The neck features a Pao-Ferro fingerboard with 24 extra jumbo frets. The hardware includes Grover tuners that work precisely and provide stable tuning. The excellent craftsmanship and strong pickup configuration make the EC-401 a high-quality, genre-appropriate instrument with a very good price-performance ratio and appealing aesthetics.
