"An outstanding guitar"

The first thing I noticed about this guitar is that it looks ten times better in real life than on the picture on this site. The arched top looks really great and the colour is stunning. The guitar has a fast and sleek neck and great action. It's also great for both solos and chords. To sum it up, this is a very good guitar, and the prize is very suitable compared to the quality of the guitar.

This guitar is typical ESP quality. They covered all the details on this guitar, putting more expensive guitar companies to shame. This guitar is very versatile. The neck pickup (EMG-60) produces beautiful cleans, and is also perfect for chugging rhythm lines. The bridge pup (EMG-81) is perfect for lead, with searing endless sustain. This beautiful guitar finish is flawless, and is also very difficult to scratch or dent. It sounded perfect through my Boogie Mark IV stack, but a bit too trebly through my Marshall JCM2000 DSL stack. I tried combining the Marshall head with the Boogie cab, and that also sounded great! If you're looking for a guitar that will be a keeper for the rest of you life, I highly recommend buying this!

Simply put the guitar is the best I have ever picked up. Pictures do not do justice for how this guitar actually looks. It is absolutely beautiful!I do have a gripe though. The outlining of the top body sticks out and comes to some what of a dull edge. When you are playing chords your forearm hits this edge which gets quite annoying. I have gotten used to playing it though after about a month. The only other problem I have had is my E string has popped off the bridge in the middle of a set. I play with Not Even Slinky's which could be the reason since they are huge. All and all this guitar rocks and if you have the money I highly recommend it.

"Another Great Guitar Available From ESP!"

Well, when I first tried out this guitar, I didn't have much time with it, and absolutly hated it. Then, a few months later I got my hands on one, and something about it just made me wanna have one. These guitars don't feel like any other, and they're about a quarter inch thinner then Les Pauls. The tone of these guitars are incredible, like any other ESP. The guitar has a descent amount of weight to it, with pretty good fret access. I'm not a fan of EMG's, because I think they're to noisy, but this guitar sounds great as soon as you plug it in. You have to play one to know what I'm talking about, but theres a good chance you'll never wanna put it down. I don't see me selling this guitar for quite some time.

I'm sorry. I really slammed this guitar before but I had barely a chance to try it. I love the way it plays like butter, the EMG sound, and the bone nut. The lack of the 24 XJ frets was disheartening but its a small negative in an ocean of positives. Please forgive my speaking without much background.
