This guitar is absolutely well built and comfortable to play - This is coming from someone who had a Jackson KV2 and Jackson SL2H soloist. Floyd Rose is great - guitar stays in tune, EMG81 pair is KILLER, and the snow white finish is gorgeous. This guitar came nicely setup straight out of the box, I restrung it with light tops and heavy bottoms by DR (10-50s), tuned to Eb, and I play on a 5W Blackstar HT-5R combo amp and I'm in love with my setup. ESP's LTD series are impressive guitars, priced well and the quality is superb!

The day after I got it I took it to my music store for initial setup.. when I returned the guy was like man thats one of the sweetest guitars I have had in here, I agree the wow factor is instantaneous, & if the stunning visual is not enough... wait till you hear it play, if you play rock/metal you'll be hard pressed to find better, its got all the bells & whistles of high end guitars at the middle range price tag... would definately buy again if need be.. Shout out to zZounds for making it possible for me to afford this beauty

No frills metal/shred guitar. Slim neck - fit and finish look perfect - Sub 1k guitar you can not beat this. I've played many of the E-II Esp's that are priced over 1600 and you could not tell the difference in feel and sound with a blind comparison. Beautiful simple guitar that plays and feels great. No complaints!

Well, I had been trying to get this guitar for almost a year because of it always being on back order. I ended up buying a Schecter Hellraiser with the sustainiac and I love it as well. Anyway, this one was finally in stock and I grabbed it. I am so glad I did! trust me, you will not be disappointed with this one. Played like a dream right out of the box with a bit of tuning. The EMG 81's are a great set for this type of wood for the body. The sound is just incredible. I highly recommend this guitar. I have been playing hard rock and metal since the 80's. Wish I'd had this back then...lol
