SPOTLIGHT REVIEW
VERIFIED BUYER
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
Sound: This guitar sounds better than most $1800+ guitars I've played. It's great for all types of musical styles from jazz to metal, plugged in or unplugged. Percussive rythmn playing is crystal clear, not muddy. Soloing is so good, so so good! The tone! Oh my, the tone! Feature: The components are top-notch. The grover tuners are extremely precise and when you tune your guitar, it stays in tune, especially in combination with the Earvana nut, tune-o-matic and string-thru-body. Never worry about bending a note out of tune. The mohagony body resonates for days, the quilted-maple top and the binding makes it look and feel like an overly expensive guitar. The only feature I wish it had is a selection of colors. Trans-black is great, but a trans-dark cherry or tiger-eye would make me drool. Quality: This guitar will last forever (provided it is well taken care of). The workmanship and quality are top-notch, it feels like a guitar hand-built in the USA that sells for three-times as much. Value: This product is well-worth it's selling price. It's a diamond in the rough. Manufacturer Support: Nope. The Wow Factor: This guitar is so sexy it makes me drool just thinking about it. It is absolutely aesthetically beautiful. The binding, the choice of woods, quilted-top... the beautiful grain of the fret-board. Overall: I considered three guitars (a Peavey Wolfgang, Music Man EVH, and an ESP Horizon) before I discovered the MH400-NT. The MH400-NT plays just as well as the other three, feels just as solid, is just as comfortable to play, is just as sexy and costs way less than either of the three. You can't beat it. And it has EMGs!!! I would only supplement it with a seven-string version of this guitar. ESP makes a six-string baritone version of this guitar, but I want all seven strings.

Sound: The EMG 81/85 pickups are incredible. Ill never go back to passive pickups. Feature: The grover tuners work great, and the 3-way selector switch operates very smoothly. Ease of Use: Extremely easy to play on, the pinch harmonics just flow out of this thing. Quality: I noticed a few minor blemishes when I got the guitar. The inlay at the 20th fret has a small chip in it, and the edges are a little sloppy where the wood meets the binding. Other than that its a beautiful guitar. Value: great value for a mid-grade guitar. The EMG's and the quilted maple body are top notch. Manufacturer Support: My guitar was backored, and Esp took FOREVER to fulfill their order, I had to wait over 2 months for my guitar to finally ship. The Wow Factor: The picture on the site makes it look really bad, but when I opened the box I couldnt believe how gorgeous the guitar was. And to my suprise, instead of natural binding on the body, it came with white binding, which Im happy it did, because I didnt like the natural binding. Overall: I definitely plan to keep this guitar for a long time. As for adding anything? It doesnt need a thing.

Sound: Product sounds great. Made for metal. Emg pickups are great. Althogh i use it on a crappy peavy amp thats why I gave the sound a 8. Feature: The most useful features are the great pickups. The grover tuners are great. I think the selection is perfect. I also like how its a non tremo. I dont like floyd rose cause it screws up your guitar and I hate the ugly bridge. Ease of Use: Very playable. Really fast action. I reccomend it highly. Quality: Quality is great. No blemishes or anything. I just orderd it a week ago from zzounds and just got it today. Just to let u kno the guitar in the picture is an older version. The guitar looks black and has white binding. If u wanna see how your guitar will look go to the esp site. Thats the exact guitar they send you. I was worryd I was going to get the older version because of the picture and the specs said it had natural binding and the new one has white binding. But I just got the guitar today from zzounds and its the up to date version on the esp site. The guitar also looks better in person. I went on the installement plan which is awesome cause I couldnt afford this baby all at once. I reccomend using the plan if you dont have all the cash. Value: Great value for the price. If its way out of your price range I say its worth it. If u wanna spend more go for a deluxe version of an ltd. Manufacturer Support: Havent used support yet. The Wow Factor: I think it appeals to all metal players. When I played it in the store I knew I wanted it.

Sound: OMG, this guitar is definetly for people that love distortion, the sustain is like a lifetime tone, OMG!!! pff im 13 and i rip Feature: Probably the lightest ESP out there and the neck...omg there's just no end to ripping it on this guitar. so flat...so light..... Ease of Use: Eh, like i said it's light, very fast neck and the jumbo frets really help with your power chords and single notes. Quality: Because of its light feel and coating it seems like something you don't want to carry around anywhere without a hardshell case, but otherwise i wouldnt know. Value: Very nice price for the quality of the guitar. Manufacturer Support: I havn't had any problems with this guitar so im pretty sure i wont know how the support is if i treat this guitar right ^^ The Wow Factor: The first time i SAW this guitar i pretty much didnt like it. But omg when i sat down at the music store i fell in love with it right then and there. Compared to other guitars this "flame-top" also looks the best. Overall: Wow i expect this guitar to last and appeal to me for maybe 10 years..yea..that's how good it is...

Sound: If you get it custom made then im sure you can put a gold EMG pick up in there. how ever, i think it should come with a gold and a silver EMG pick up if not custom made. Ease of Use: this is most deffenatly the easiest to play...i love how you can get to the 24th fret with ease

Sound: The sound of this guitar is absolutely awesome. It's perfect for metal. The string thru body and neck thru added to the 81/85 pickups make this thing sound awesome. The sustain is great, and it rips for metal. I'm not too sure about other styles but definitely for metal Feature: Not a huge slew of features, but all of the parts are well made and well put together. The grover tuners are really precise, the 81/85 pickups sound great, the mohogany body is really solid, and the fretboard feels really fast. Good quality parts. Quality: This guitar was made in Korea, and is very well put together, there are no paint blemishes, or chips in the wood of any kind. Good setup. Value: Amazing metal guitar for the price. I got mine as a blemished one for 450 dollars. There is no blemish to be seen. It looks like the "blemish" was the fact that somebody bought the guitar then returned it. It was still in the factory sealed box when I got it. I lucked out big time. Manufacturer Support: I've contacted esp a few times and the response has usually been quick and concise The Wow Factor: This guitar looks sweet. For some reason it looks purple on the esp website, but it's a really dark see thru blackish blue color. Really hot, and the black hardware looks good too. Overall: This guitar is now my main axe, topping my gibson, my schecter and my Ibanez. It should last a long long time with proper care. It plays really good, and is just all around an awesome guitar.
