UTILIZATION

Channel fine enough

Access to acute way because the handle screw, but there are far worse. It's a cheap guitar, do not ask too much either ...

Weight level, it is quite heavy. Personally I like it, it is well balanced.

Fun to play sitting or standing. On this side of, LTD excellent work from home!

For sound, it's a scratching of metal before it. It has two humbucker pickups for distortion so no problems, ditto for the metal and the saturated overdrive. For its clear, I am satisfied with myself but for those who play primarily in clear, it is better to look elsewhere than in ESP. Otherwise I also play with acoustic simulator (BOSS AC-3) and it's great!
The passive pickups do a good job, but for those who can, try to see to replace the original pickups with EMG HZ's a lot!

As it is said in the entry level but does for 200 balls, it rocks!

SOUNDS

The sound is fine with me: metal, metalhead from scratch, no complaints.
I play on my Roland Cube 20X with ML2 (Metalcore, cold saturated distortion) and AC3 (acoustic simulator). Frankly, the sound is not perfect (obviously for € 200 has not been a Les Paul Gibson to do everything) but we can do many things with. Crystal clear, bold, hot or cold ...

If there's one that I nth tired, it's a sound of Lead: bridge pickup, setting "Metal" on the amp, a lot of treble, not too low, good saturation and delay to resell . Perfect for solo melodic metal in the gnrer Children Of Bodom.

OVERALL OPINION

This is my first guitar, it's been two years since she supports me without complaint and I am very happy. At the time I enter the store and the salesman asked me what I want qe. "A guitar metalheads, not too expensive because I'm not sure to really hang it ...", I immediately put it to be the hands and loved from the first moment! Result I had a superb instrument for what I wanted!

It does not really have strengths or weak, for the price and the guitar is starting in his place. Value for money no scam, excellent.

Well it's clear, at or I play now it no longer suffices completely. I think as an ESP SV Standard next purchase, because it is built das best wood, it has 24 frets, a race driver, active pickups and a floyd. In short everything he lost this guitar, but to start we do not need.

Finally, remain simple: guitar-oriented metal, beginner level. If you already have the eperience or you learn very quickly as I buy another one.

The ESP LTD M50 is one of the beginner models that LTD offers in their lineup. It's meant for people who are just beginning playing guitar and can't afford one of the more expensive models. The guitar features a basswood body with a bolt on maple neck and rosewood fretboard, dot inlays with a square inlay on the 12th fret, 22 jumbo frets, a vintage style tremolo bridge, two humbuckers, one volume, one tone and a three way switch.

UTILIZATION

I'm not a huge fan of the 50 and 100 series that LTD offers simply because of the low quality woods and time they put into every guitar. The neck joints are usually pretty sloppy, so the binding between the neck and body tend to be loose. This hinders tone. The fretwork is haggard in that the ends are usually either sharp or barely beveled, and the frets aren't really crowned. There's also an issue with finishes in that they're sometimes sloppy and you can see drip marks. The biggest thing would be how level the frets are in that you can sometimes get some high and low frets which prevent how low you can lower the action.

SOUNDS

These guitars generally sound pretty dull. The stock humbuckers in these absolutely suck, too. They sound dull and muddy no matter what you EQ the amp at. Even if you replace the pickups, the wood itself tends to not resonate like the higher quality LTD guitars, and this is the biggest issue with the line. The woods themselves just aren't that high quality, and you're rolling the dice every time you buy one of these before you go out and play it.

OVERALL OPINION

I don't recommend getting one of these at all. If you're looking for a cheaper guitar, look at the LTD M1000 and buy used. You should be able to pick it up for about $500ish, and it'll be a way better guitar in terms of fit, finish and tone. It'll also have better pickups, a better bridge and better fretwork to go along with the slightly bigger price. Don't be afraid to buy used.
