Manufacturing Koreen (very good).
Pitch of 24.75 "mahogany body, set neck of 22 boxes in rosewood fretboard.
EMG 81/60 2 volumes, 1 tone, 1 micro switch (and an idle position switch on a classic Les Paul).
Tone Pro bridge mechanical self-locking Sperzel.
A concrete config for the price.

UTILIZATION

With the fingers but also for large hands the handle is very nice for the rhythm.
The shape makes this guitar a less comfortable MIII example but it is still more than playable. (This is a reflection of my tastes).
As for the rest we naturally feel good from the beginning of this guitar.
The dual humbucker config leaves room and height of string can play "high" without taking care not to touch the guitare.Seul the switch is inactive in the path of my right hand by time of intense bourrinage jumping. But as it is inactive it does not affect the sound.
The latter is very powerful (EMG requires) the violin being of good quality it is very propre.J AIS was surprised at the clear sound by playing an EMG amplifier Fender.Malgres the guitar sounds not so bad in the clear. (Even Mesa ca is listening)

SOUNDS

I play mainly metal (heavy and neo) and it's rather the style planned for this guitar (see Jaymz, lol). If we seek first and foremost a crystal-clear clean sound is not the right mix of mics if evidement.Maintenant one seeks power without it being too much to the detriment of sound is rather clean not mal.J AIS another ESP PRS pickups mounted which makes it suitable as the metal to blues (maybe this would be the same on a Truckster ).
I play a Mesa rack with TC Electronic effect (sometimes also JMP1). But I board tried this guitar at the store on a Fender and the distortion was already powerful.
I board a big fat sound with a typical grain Mesa / ESP.
I love the sound of my general combination guitar / amp.

OVERALL OPINION

I board received this guitar currents weeks.
I appreciate the config and finition.Le side "spent" is much cooler than I expected (I board the model chosen for the main config).
I had three already and this is my first ESP LTD.Vu the little difference between ESP and LTD (Korean production to make the difference in cost between the two) I board opted for the version LTD.J ' ais a KH and a pal version of the LTD KH and I enjoy almost as much his own.
The quality / price is very very bon.Je AIS paid just under € 1200 in neuf.Ou find a guitar with such pickups and acastillages at this price?
The level of finish is also very good.
I was not aware of qd to buy another guitar more but since I ais I can not in a stall.
For metalheads, go there with closed eyes.
