Fishman Fluence Open Core Classic pickups deliver versatile clean and distortion tones with three distinct voicings.
Fishman Fluence Open Core Humbucker
Equipped with two active Fishman Fluence Open Core Classic humbuckers, the Viper-1000 offers a wide range of tones. The neck pickup delivers vocal mids and sparkling highs, while the bridge pickup provides hot-rodded gain tones ideal for tight riffing and soaring solos. A push/pull Tone knob activates vintage-style voicing reminiscent of classic '50s humbuckers, while the push/pull Volume knob unlocks crisp single-coil tones, expanding the guitar’s versatility for any style or setting.
Six LTD locking tuners keep the LTD Viper-1000 securely in tune.
TonePros Bridge and Locking Tuner
Premium TonePros Locking Tune-O-Matic bridge anchors the strings firmly and allows for precise intonation and action adjustment, even with heavy string gauges or drop tunings. The string-through-body design enhances resonance and sustain. Paired with LTD locking tuners, this setup ensures rock-solid tuning stability during intense performances or studio sessions.
