"The Little Beast That Does"
Feature:
Not a whole lot of features...2 volume, 1 tone, 3-way pick-up in the arch...pretty standard. The pick-ups aren't the greatest though. I noticed that on this specific guitar I can't get the perfect action on the low E string, but that's just this one and the one string.
Quality:
One of the best guitars I've handled, very impressed with its durability...I accidentally let it drop into my wall once and the headstock did a hell of a lot of damage to the molding at the bottom of the wall. All that happened to the headstock was the paint from the wall got on it...now that's what I call durable!!! The tuners aren't very reliable though, I usually have to tune it every other day. As far as aesthetics go, it's goregous...I really like it over its cousin the EC-1000 because of the lack of a binding.
Value:
Awesome value on its own. I chose this guitar over the 200 series because of its color first and its price second. That and I was looking for a good bolt-on neck guitar, and I got much more than I was looking for.
Desirability:
I prefer the non-binded quilted maple top look of this guitar, I really like ESP's contoured body styles and LTD makes quality products. Highly practical for its price (doesn't quite beat out Dean's prices, but that's for a good reason).
Sound:
It's a bolt neck, so it's short but loud and sweet. With its current factory pick-ups it's still a decent sounding guitar. Great metal guitar, has a good squeal but doesn't produce a lot of feedback, probably better for solos than rhythm. Honestly compared to my Epiphone G-400, it's right on par with it in clean tone (maybe better) and the distortion mixes with it quite well. I currently use a Digitech MetalMaster and a DOD Grunge pedal with it. It's a great GREAT GREAT value for $280, and with a little more financing to switch out the pick-ups I don't think I would need to get anything that costs more.
Support:
Honestly I haven't had a problem with the guitar yet that I couldn't fix with a tiny screwdriver.
Overall:
Even though I am already looking for another guitar, it's not to replace this one. I plan to upgrade its pick-ups for sure, and maybe install a Floyd Rose bridge and nut. I would be very disheartened should this guitar be stolen, but I have no doubts about buying another if I could not get it back.
