Best value:
Excellent
Mine was made in Korea.
It has a bridge crossing, ie the strings cross the bridge and go into the guitar.
The neck has 24 frets. It is a set neck, so it does not have a heel, which makes access to acute pleasant and easy to me. It is equipped with two EMG, a 81 (bridge position) and 85 (neck position).
In total there are two knobs, one that controls the volume and one that sets the tone. The micro switch has three positions: neck pickup, neck pickup + pickup, and finally pickup.
It has a devastating look, I find really beautiful.
UTILIZATION
The neck is thin enough and fast. It is painted and varnished, which could hinder those of you pretty sweaty hands. In my case, is the handle that suits me better, then it's only a matter of tastes and colors!
The ergonomics of this guitar seems perfect to me. It is very light, well balanced (it does not sting the nose when playing standing) and the shape is really well suited for optimum comfort Thurs Access to acute is very simple, no discomfort is felt. You can easily find a suitable sound, since there are only two knobs and a micro switch three positions.
SOUNDS
In my case I am very turned metal (all types of metal), and do not lie, the EMG pickups are made for!
Regarding saturated sound, simply plug it in, set the volume knob to the max, a good distortion and voila! EMG out a powerful and quite massive sound, all with aggressiveness. The sound is very clean and precise, especially with the EMG 81, perfect for quick rhythm. The 85 gives a very good medium and deep sound practice to shred and solos of all kinds.
Regarding the clean, the 85 outputs a "cold" enough clear sound good. But this is the kind of sound that I like. I almost never use the 81 as the clean sound on the 85 suits me perfectly.
What I like most about the sound of this guitar is its aggressiveness and its high accuracy, the whole being of the two active pickups.
OVERALL OPINION
I have 3 years now, and I'm not tired. This was my third guitar and I have not bought more since! What I like most is its looks, its ergonomics and its pest. ESP / LTD comes really quality guitars for a really reasonable price. I think this is a guitar very good price / quality ratio. It is medium-range but easily rivals some high-end guitars.
Ave experience I remake this choice without hesitation, and I'm not about to fall for one another!
