Made in japan, please visit PSE for detailed specs ...
For a cooler look all the gold hardware has been replaced with chrome.

UTILIZATION

Profile of nice round despite a veneer a bit sticky.
Access to acute improvement, but I go as often that box so it suits me.
Light enough, it can be played for a long time standing without fatigue (2:30 / 3:00)
Re granted.

SOUNDS

Plugged into a 3 channel Dual Rectifier 4x12 cabinet and Standart.
With such a unique efffet Holly Grail reverb.
The G60 goes well with the dual cleans giving sounds quite warm and soft in the ensemblent.
The G81 and the way the Modern Mesa distortion gives a good fat and aggressive, slightly runny, I like.

OVERALL OPINION

Used for a year now, I do not regret my choice.
I tried all the ersatz form LP meets my criteria before and the one that suited me the most.
I hesitated between her and the same finish "Vintage" and an LP Gothic, but the availability of new / used (and prices) make me carry me on the ESP.
I would do my choice without hesitation, unless they have a higher budget permetre me to take a Gibson Les Paul Custom and equip it properly (hardware quality and G81/G60). So I like this configuration, it has become my main.
