Overall I love ESPs as I learned what I liked as musician by playing my first guitar, and others...I've learned what I liked in guitars which is why I bought the EC 401 one after having tried an EC 1000 at a store. I was offered a two year service plan, this is separate from the warranty, I say take it if you can because it is a notable expense. So far I am really enjoying playing this guitar, it sounds so great even naked I usually don't plug in when practicing scales. This is not a Les Paul knock off by any stretch of the imagination, I can't stress that enough. This guitar is its own thing.
Now most comparable to this guitar in the line up is the EC 1000, while it doesn't have a lot of things that are standard on that model, it is still a great guitar by anyone's standards even professionals. Things like no lock in tuners may not mean much against the quality of the built and and pick ups which are the same in both models.
Even without an initial setup and playing naked with no amp this guitar sounds great, if you are able to get 4 notes straight it will make you think you sound better than you actually are. It is the quality of the wood and and built alone. Now LTDs do not have a a longer drying time to the wood than standard series, taking this under consideration; The sound you get is really high end you would not have guessed it.
Now by high end guitar standards this is isn't expensive, but by real life CURRENT economics standards, IT IS. What you have to remember is this guitar looks and plays like it is more expensive, and quite frankly it is pretty much a one time expense for your average play one club a week giging musician like me. I think it is a good alternative for pros, either way completely worth it if you ask me.

.i saw the ec-1000 online for $100 more and liked it but wanted to pay a little less and i saw that my local music shop carried ESP's and had them both in stock and when i went i played both and they felt the same and sounded the same and really loved the feel of both. theyre les pauls with emgs but has a better metal sound i love it! cant put it down!

.I bought this guitar for a friend but he backed out so I keep it for myself. I am glad he backed out. I have Fender,Strat & Tele GibsonLes Paul, 335 and acustic from both campanys but this Esp LTD stands up to them all you can run it throught anything and it tops it out any music on stage or in the studio. I love the ways it feel and plays and sounds. BUY THIS GUITAR YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT EVER.

.Good buy for the price. Recommend it for all syles of play, regardless of experience.
The features on this guitar are great. The emgs sound awesome and make lead and rythm parts shine. The hardware looks and works great too.
Good quality guitar. The stock strings werent that great but I replaced them with D'Addarios and it deffinatley worked.
The value of the guitar is deffinatley worth the price. It plays smooth and the emgs make it sound amazing.

.Solidly built guitar, quality components, excellent craftsmanship. Feels like a guitar that will last you many years - the sound and playability are up to the same standards. I would recommend this guitar to just about anyone looking for a solid value rock/metal/heavy blues instrument. That's what I use it for anyway, and it works just fine for me.

.No guitar for this price has a closer feel to a high end LP than this one does (in my experience.)
The EMGs sound awesome, just how you expect them to. The feel of the guitar is what you will fall in love with though. Just sweet.

.I have just recently bought this ax. I ususally play Gibsons, but wanted to change it up a bit. I was not disappointed. This thing delivers. It has an amazing sound, and plays very well. Take if from a "Gibson Through a Marshall" guy, this Guitar will not let you down. Buy it!

.Good souding guitar! I am very impressed with sound and playability however it doesnt stay in tune very well at all. Also my pickup 3 way selector doesnt always work the best. Ive owned the guitar for 11 months and already running into these small issues. The nickel hardware doesnt hold up either. If the pickup selector wasnt cutting out and it stayed in tune alittle better i would give it a 10 out of a 10.
