MGR/Yau Tze Yuen « ESP KH-2 (Kirk Hammett 2) »
Published on 12/12/02 at 15:00I'm a malaysian, i got my KH-2 from the internet. Paid about $1699 which was actually a great deal.
I've only owned my KH-2 for bout 6months. The moment i layed my hands on the guitar i already fell in love with it. nice handling and the sound is awesome. My fingers just glides on the fret board. its clean sound isn't that warm but very very clean. Very loud pickups as they are active. has very tight distorted sound... its just an amazing instrument. well done ESP !!
flawless guitar... just the restringing. like all floyd rose guitars, restringing is tedious.
Forget bout any other manufacturers. If you are into rock, this ESP KH-2 will fulfill your needs. It has a very fast neck, nice construstion and finishing. The bones and skull inlays are a beauty. Stare at it all day but still it amazes you. Armed with 2 EMG-81 pickups on a alder body, this combination give you a ultimate rock instrument. Tune the guitar once and you can just throw your tuner away, trust me it will never go out of tune. it is packed with a original floyd tremolo, very accurate tremolo, try bending it the entire day still the strings will perfectly in tuned. has a very nice black glossy finish. i must say again that ESP together with kirk hammett have really done a wonderful job on this axe.
Just get the guitar, play it and rock on !! worth every penny.
