ESP LTD EC100 Quilted Maple Top Electric Guitar

Feature:
this is a simple set up ( if you have ever played in a rock band you know simple is better ) the only thing I see you will need to up grade is the volume and tone knobs but for $230 what do you expect replacements are cheap to upgrade

Quality:
other than chep knobs yes I play out side 80% of the time so I don't use big $ guitars when we have a job and I beat the He!! out of my guitars this thing is holding up great I've droped it , hammer on it with my fist and just down right tear thinks up and other than a couple scars IT keep on ticking

Value:
best bang for the buck I seen in a long time and I have played for 30years

Desirability:
the Quilted to and contour of the back make them look sexy and very confortable to play weather you hang it low or strap it high I don't care for the cherry I have the starburst and I get a lot of my friends picking it up and I have alot of friend in bands with big $ guitars who just love it

Sound:
if your looking for that fat LP sound your looking at the wrong Guitar this guitar has a real bright hard rock sound if you like distorion go for it and crank it up

Ease of Use:
once I got used to the volume knobs being in the wrong order ( had the neck in the bridge location and bridge in the neck location ) but as far as controls not a problem easy to tone three way works good you may want to have your guitar tec set the pickup and the action if you order on line

Support:
I have never dealt with the company but I deal with the store that I bought mine from and they are ESP/LTD reps they treat me great and I will be buying another one for a back up and a second to try drop D tunning in

Overall:
for the price / the way I play and treat a guitar I will keep on playing LP style as long as They make them I am sold on these little Gems

Feature:
the knobs and stuff were good but the pickups arent too great mine broke and you should get some emgs put in it

Quality:
i dropped mine about 6 times and i only got one little scratch

Value:
this guitar should be worth alot in a long time

Desirability:
the color of this guitar in see thru black cherry is awesome!

Sound:
it sounds pretty good its got some good strings on it when you get it too

Ease of Use:
the neck is great but the guitar is a little heavy

Overall:
i recomend this guitar because its cheap high quality and it looks cool
