So i was playing my guitar and suddenly when i went to the bridge it stopped producing any sound or the faintest volume. Sometimes it would go back after flicking the pickup selector but now nothing. Anyone have any ideas why or what i should check?
Guitar is an esp ltd ec1000

Probably a bad selector switch.

Try quickly flicking the switch back and forth for a few seconds, sometimes the contacts on the switch start to have issues if you leave it in the same position for too long.

Bad switch or a loose wire somewhere. You're going to have to open that up and check for anything obvious. If you're not sure how to fix those things it's time for a trip to the shop. Shouldn't be too expensive.

Asian electronics are crap for the most part. If you can't replace the switch, clean it.

Switchcraft is the industry standard.
