Review: Quality - This guitar screams quality. Craftsmanship is 100%. Easy access to upper frets. Pickups are mean and aggressive.
Review: I own a Mitchell MD300 electric guitar which is pretty decent. This seems easier to play - I am a beginner right now. This is the 3rd guitar I've owned. I own a Mitchell MD300 electric guitar which is pretty decent. This seems easier to play. The action is lower and the"EMG Hetset" pickups just scream. Taking lessons now and trying to unlock the magic of the guitar. Yes, I'm a Metallica fan. I've even met James Hetfield backstage at a show! This guitar is awesome!! It has inspired me to to keep picking it up to practice. Fit and finish is beautiful. The sound through my Marshall Code 50 amp is incredible. It looks amazing hanging on my wall in the "Man Cave" among the pictures and autographs I've acquired over the years. This guitar is gorgeous!! It has most of the features of the $5K ESP version at 1/5 the cost. Only differences I can see is the plastic /bone nut, The LTD has standard strap buttons VS the Schaller strap locks (24 bucks) and the 3 piece mahogany neck/ vs one piece. This guitar is made in a Korean factory vs being hand built in Japan (but the quality control is damn good....just like Samsung/Iphone) . The ESP case is super nice too. 2 Years later... I am still taking lessons and getting better. I've added a few guitars to my collection as well. I actually appreciate the quality of this guitar even more. It really sounds great and is holding up really well. I use Elixir nanoweb strings now and love the sound and feel. This was a great purchase!
